Hi
Is there a way to determine the amount of free kernel memory? si_meminfo() returns nr_free_pages() for example, but this is not what I'm looking for. I want to know the amount of memory that is available to the kernel (via vmalloc or kmalloc) without considering userspace memory consumption.
Maybe something like: nr_active_pages + nr_inactive_pages + nr_free_pages()
I want to use the functionality from within a kernel module, so i don't have access to nr_active_pages(), nr_inactive_pages() or nr_free_pages().
Thanks for your help. Michael Bellion
