    NAME

    kstat - kernel statistics facility
     
    

    DESCRIPTION

    The kstat facility is a general-purpose mechanism for providing kernel statistics to users.  

    The kstat model

    The kernel maintains a linked list of statistics structures, or kstats. Each kstat has a common header section and a type-specific data section. The header section is defined by the kstat_t structure:  

    kstat header

    typedef   int kid_t;    /* unique kstat id */
    
    typedef struct kstat {
      /*   
       * Fields relevant to both kernel and user
       */
      hrtime_t      ks_crtime;               /* creation time */
      struct kstat  *ks_next;                /* kstat chain linkage */
      kid_t         ks_kid;                  /* unique kstat ID */
      char          ks_module[KSTAT_STRLEN]; /* module name */
      uchar_t       ks_resv;                 /* reserved */
      int           ks_instance;             /* module's instance */
      char          ks_name[KSTAT_STRLEN];   /* kstat name */
      uchar_t       ks_type;                 /* kstat data type */
      char          ks_class[KSTAT_STRLEN];  /* kstat class */
      uchar_t       ks_flags;                /* kstat flags */
      void          *ks_data;                /* kstat type-specific
                                                data */
      uint_t        ks_ndata;                /* # of data records */
      size_t        ks_data_size;            /* size of kstat data
                                                section */
      hrtime_t      ks_snaptime;             /* time of last data
                                                snapshot */
    
      /* 
       * Fields relevant to kernel only
       */
      int(*ks_update)(struct kstat *, int);
      void  *ks_private; 
      int(*ks_snapshot)(struct kstat *, void *, int);
      void  *ks_lock; 
    } kstat_t;
    

    The fields that are of significance to the user are:

    ks_crtime

    The time the kstat was created. This allows you to compute the rates of various counters since the kstat was created; "rate since boot" is replaced by the more general concept of "rate since kstat creation". All times associated with kstats (such as creation time, last snapshot time, kstat_timer_t and kstat_io_t timestamps, and the like) are 64-bit nanosecond values. The accuracy of kstat timestamps is machine dependent, but the precision (units) is the same across all platforms. See gethrtime(3C) for general information about high-resolution timestamps.

    ks_next

    kstats are stored as a linked list, or chain. ks_next points to the next kstat in the chain.

    ks_kid

    A unique identifier for the kstat.

    ks_module,
    ks_instance

    contain the name and instance of the module that created the kstat. In cases where there can only be one instance, ks_instance is 0.

    ks_name

    gives a meaningful name to a kstat. The full kstat namespace is <ks_module,ks_instance,ks_name>, so the name only need be unique within a module.

    ks_type

    The type of data in this kstat. kstat data types are discussed below.

    ks_class

    Each kstat can be characterized as belonging to some broad class of statistics, such as disk, tape, net, vm, and streams. This field can be used as a filter to extract related kstats. The following values are currently in use: disk, tape, controller, net, rpc, vm, kvm, hat, streams, kmem, kmem_cache, kstat, and misc. (The kstat class encompasses things like kstat_types.)

    ks_data,
    ks_ndata,
    ks_data_size

    ks_data is a pointer to the kstat's data section. The type of data stored there depends on ks_type. ks_ndata indicates the number of data records. Only some kstat types support multiple data records. Currently, KSTAT_TYPE_RAW, KSTAT_TYPE_NAMED and KSTAT_TYPE_TIMER kstats support multiple data records. KSTAT_TYPE_INTR and KSTAT_TYPE_IO kstats support only one data record. ks_data_size is the total size of the data section, in bytes.

    ks_snaptime

    The timestamp for the last data snapshot. This allows you to compute activity rates:

    rate = (new_count - old_count) / (new_snaptime - old_snaptime);

     

    kstat data types

    The following types of kstats are currently available:

    #define KSTAT_TYPE_RAW    0   /* can be anything */
    #define KSTAT_TYPE_NAMED  1   /* name/value pairs */
    #define KSTAT_TYPE_INTR   2   /* interrupt statistics */
    #define KSTAT_TYPE_IO     3   /* I/O statistics */
    #define KSTAT_TYPE_TIMER  4   /* event timers */
    

    To get a list of all kstat types currently supported in the system, tools can read out the standard system kstat kstat_types (full name spec is <``unix'', 0, ``kstat_types''>). This is a KSTAT_TYPE_NAMED kstat in which the name field describes the type of kstat, and the value field is the kstat type number (for example, KSTAT_TYPE_IO is type 3 -- see above).  

    Raw kstat

    KSTAT_TYPE_RAW

    raw data

    The "raw" kstat type is just treated as an array of bytes. This is generally used to export well-known structures, like sysinfo.  

    Name=value kstat

    KSTAT_TYPE_NAMED

    A list of arbitrary name=value statistics.

    typedef struct kstat_named {
      char    name[KSTAT_STRLEN];    /* name of counter */
      uchar_t data_type;             /* data type */
      union {
               charc[16];            /* enough for 128-bit ints */
               struct {
                  union {
                      char *ptr;    /* NULL-terminated string */
                  } addr;
                  uint32_t len;     /* length of string */
               } str;
               int32_t   i32;
               uint32_t  ui32;
               int64_t   i64;
               uint64_t  ui64;
    
     /* These structure members are obsolete */
    
               int32_t   l;
               uint32_t  ul;
               int64_t   ll;
               uint64_t  ull;
            } value;                /* value of counter */
    } kstat_named_t;
    
    /* The following types are Stable
    
    KSTAT_DATA_CHAR
    KSTAT_DATA_INT32
    KSTAT_DATA_LONG
    KSTAT_DATA_UINT32
    KSTAT_DATA_ULONG
    KSTAT_DATA_INT64
    KSTAT_DATA_UINT64
    
    /* The following type is Evolving */
    
    KSTAT_DATA_STRING
    
    /* The following types are Obsolete */
    
    KSTAT_DATA_LONGLONG
    KSTAT_DATA_ULONGLONG
    KSTAT_DATA_FLOAT
    KSTAT_DATA_DOUBLE
    

    Some devices need to publish strings that exceed the maximum value for KSTAT_DATA_CHAR in length; KSTAT_DATA_STRING is a data type that allows arbitrary-length strings to be associated with a named kstat. The macros below are the supported means to read the pointer to the string and its length.

    #define KSTAT_NAMED_STR_PTR(knptr) ((knptr)->value.str.addr.ptr)
    #define KSTAT_NAMED_STR_BUFLEN(knptr) ((knptr)->value.str.len)
    

    KSTAT_NAMED_STR_BUFLEN() returns the number of bytes required to store the string pointed to by KSTAT_NAMED_STR_PTR(); that is, strlen(KSTAT_NAMED_STR_PTR()) + 1.  

    Interrupt kstat

    KSTAT_TYPE_INTR

    Interrupt statistics.

    An interrupt is a hard interrupt (sourced from the hardware device itself), a soft interrupt (induced by the system via the use of some system interrupt source), a watchdog interrupt (induced by a periodic timer call), spurious (an interrupt entry point was entered but there was no interrupt to service), or multiple service (an interrupt was detected and serviced just prior to returning from any of the other types).

    #define KSTAT_INTR_HARD      0 
    #define KSTAT_INTR_SOFT      1 
    #define KSTAT_INTR_WATCHDOG  2 
    #define KSTAT_INTR_SPURIOUS  3 
    #define KSTAT_INTR_MULTSVC   4 
    #define KSTAT_NUM_INTRS      5 
    
    typedef struct kstat_intr {         
      uint_t intrs[KSTAT_NUM_INTRS]; /* interrupt counters */ 
    } kstat_intr_t;
    

     

    Event timer kstat

    KSTAT_TYPE_TIMER

    Event timer statistics.

    These provide basic counting and timing information for any type of event.

    typedef struct kstat_timer {
      char         name[KSTAT_STRLEN]; /* event name */
      uchar_t      resv;               /* reserved */
      u_longlong_t num_events;         /* number of events */
      hrtime_t     elapsed_time;       /* cumulative elapsed time */
      hrtime_t     min_time;           /* shortest event duration */
      hrtime_t     max_time;           /* longest event duration */
      hrtime_t     start_time;         /* previous event start time */
      hrtime_t     stop_time;          /* previous event stop time */
    } kstat_timer_t;
    

     

    I/O kstat

    KSTAT_TYPE_IO

    I/O statistics.

    typedef struct kstat_io {
    /*
    * Basic counters.
    */
    u_longlong_t     nread;      /* number of bytes read */
    u_longlong_t     nwritten;   /* number of bytes written */
    uint_t           reads;      /* number of read operations */
    uint_t           writes;     /* number of write operations */
    /*
    * Accumulated time and queue length statistics.
    *
    * Time statistics are kept as a running sum of "active" time.
    * Queue length statistics are kept as a running sum of the
    * product of queue length and elapsed time at that length --
    * that is, a Riemann sum for queue length integrated against time.
    *

    } kstat_io_t;
    

     

    Using libkstat

    The kstat library, libkstat, defines the user interface (API) to the system's kstat facility.

    You begin by opening libkstat with kstat_open(3KSTAT), which returns a pointer to a fully initialized kstat control structure. This is your ticket to subsequent libkstat operations:

    typedef struct kstat_ctl { 
      kid_t     kc_chain_id;    /* current kstat chain ID */ 
      kstat_t   *kc_chain;      /* pointer to kstat chain */ 
      int       kc_kd;          /* /dev/kstat descriptor */ 
    } kstat_ctl_t;
    

    Only the first two fields, kc_chain_id and kc_chain, are of interest to libkstat clients. (kc_kd is the descriptor for /dev/kstat, the kernel statistics driver. libkstat functions are built on top of /dev/kstat ioctl(2) primitives. Direct interaction with /dev/kstat is strongly discouraged, since it is not a public interface.)

    kc_chain points to your copy of the kstat chain. You typically walk the chain to find and process a certain kind of kstat. For example, to display all I/O kstats:

    kstat_ctl_t    *kc;
    kstat_t        *ksp;
    kstat_io_t     kio;
    
    kc = kstat_open();
    for (ksp = kc->kc_chain; ksp != NULL; ksp = ksp->ks_next) {
           if (ksp->ks_type == KSTAT_TYPE_IO) {
                 kstat_read(kc, ksp, &kio);
                   my_io_display(kio);
           }
    }
    

    kc_chain_id is the kstat chain ID, or KCID, of your copy of the kstat chain. See kstat_chain_update(3KSTAT) for an explanation of KCIDs.
