Programming :: C Library Or Some Functions To Read Proc Filesystem
Dec 6, 2010
I have a requirement, to read the complete proc filesystem from the linux pc.. Does linux provide some functions to read the proc filesystem means the directories and files present in the filesystem.. in short I want to create a treeview of proc filesystem. and if a user selects the file in the proc.. I should show the contents in the respective file. So I want some library or functions to read the proc filesystem..

Where are the definitions for C library functions located? It was just recently that I realized that header files don't actually define any functions, they merely include their prototypes.
For instance, stdio.h includes the following line:
Code:
This just means that the definition of printf() is located in another file. What file? Is there some kind of default shared object file that is automatically included during compilation?

is there a way to make the /proc filesystem writeable? With aufs or unionfs i can't join the /proc filesystem with a writable directory directly. But i think it should work by using one of this file systems.If i try to join two dirs write-proc and virtual-proc Code: mount -v -t aufs -o dirs=/tmp/write-proc/:/tmp/virtual-proc/ none /tmp/joined-proc/ and afterwards make a bind mount /proc to virtual-proc Code: mount --bind /proc /tmp/virtual-proc/ i can't see any change in /tmp/joined-proc.

I am trying to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file of a huge server (chat server) for monitoring the tcp6 connection states.
My server's tcp6 file has more than 26000 lines. For monitoring the server connections, my monitoring tool has to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file quickly in a regular interval (5 secs) and process. Presently it takes minimum 6-7 seconds for reading the whole file.
My tool can able to read the normal file (26,000 lines) less than 1 second, but it is not possible to read the same size of proc file.
I have 2 questions:
1) Why proc file takes more read time than normal file?
2) Is there any way to read the /proc/net/tcp6 file more quickly?

I have not been able to write bash to use a PID file to ensure no other instance of the same script is running! All three methods I can think of to see if the PID in the PID file is another instance of the script make the script exit with a return code of 1 but the same commands run at the command prompt work as expected.
The first attempt was:
Code:
The first attempted workaround was:
Code:
The second attempted workaround (with debug to make the following command prompt copy and paste meaningful) was:
Code:
Here's the command prompt session, testing with a stale PID file and then manually running the problem command and it behaving as expected:
Code:
This on Slackware64 13.1 which has bash 4.1.7.
In desperation I tried rebooting but the behaviour was the same.

Im reading in file /proc/cpuinfo into a char array.Im using strstr to search for a string im interested in (the cpu speed line) and storing it in another char array.I want to just store the line that contains CPU speed but im getting everything after the CPU speed line in the char array too.Is there anything better than strstr or is there someway i can parse the the payload data (i.e. the actual cpu speed)

I've had a look at some similar threads but as I'm very new to linux they're already a bit technical for me. Sorry, this calls for someone with patience. I gather from other threads that disconnecting an external drive without unmounting is a no-no, and this seems to be the likely cause. Now the disk is read only and I'm unable to change any settings through the usual control panel on ubuntu. I'm just not familiar with the terminal instructions. I tried to cut and past a few command lines from other threads but I got some warnings that proceding could damage data. Like this one: WARNING! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE filesystem damage.

I'm reading about shared, static, and dynamic libraries. What is SDL? Is it static, shared, or dynamic?
I always thought a library would be a lot of .h and .cpp files compiled separately into .o files and then if you compiled your own program you could use the -l parameter to link the library and it was all compiled together. Now I'm not so sure.
I don't even see any SDL .cpp files in my system anywhere. All I have are lots of SDL .h files in /usr/include/SDL and I don't really understand the code in them.
I'm making a wild guess here: SDL is a shared library. SDL itself is NOT compiled into my program, therefore SDL must be on any system my program tries to run on. When I compile and link SDL all it needs is the header files to know what SDL function and objects it can use. And then on every system it uses an already compiled SDL shared library thingy somewhere.
So... where is that part of SDL? All I can find are header files.
I'm thinking the advantage of shared libraries is that someone could say update SDL on their own system and take advantage of the new features without having to download new executables with the new version of SDL compiled into them for every program that uses SDL.
So if I'm making an editor and a game engine and they both use a lot of the same .cpp and .h files that I wrote and I'm tired of updating one and then the other and I need to turn them into a library, then a shared library might be kind of a silly solution. I could just make a static library. Right? Because it's not SDL. Nobody else is ever going to use this library.

I need help as I am not proficient with Linux C++ Programming. There are two parts which I need to do in the coding provided below.
1. Produce the program so it can output the word "Hey there!" and wait two minute and print the word "See you later!".
2. Produce the program that will output the text "Cool" every 20 seconds by setting a periodic task.

I've got the F13 LiveCD that I was able to boot and use using the "nomodeset" boot option. From the desktop I'm trying to perform an Install to Hard Drive. I've read the Install from LiveCD post regarding the creation of a /boot partition and a / root partition. I've tried creating them without the LVM group and with. But every time I appempt to install I get...

How can we convert a dynamic library (filename.so) to a static library (filename.a) using gnu gcc . Can we get a static library form a dynamic library . I saw a few post in which the conversion form a static library to a dynamic library is mentioned but, unfortunately, not the other way.

None of my daemon scripts work now, and the startup process displayed errors. Should I reinstall the OS and start from scratch, or is there a way to recover these files? Is there a way to rebuild the files I deleted?

openSuse v9.3 (Yes, it's old)linux 2.6.11.4-21.17-smp i686At some time after July 28 the entire filesystem has become read-only. It was functional on July 28, the last time I logged into the machine and edited a file. Even as the superuser when I attempt to change, say, the permissions of a file, I get:
Code:

I have 64bit install with CentOS release 5.3 (Final)It's been stable for about six months. What happened a while ago is really weird, I haven't messed with anything lately but the entire /home filesystem became read-only. Can't write, can't delete to anything on /home. The other filesystems are fine. I am root, and the permissions look normal. My directories and files are writable and readable.
root@atlanta [/home]# touch foo.txt
touch: cannot touch `foo.txt': Read-only file system
root@atlanta [/home]# ls -l

Im implementing a chat application using Jabber/XMPP and gloox framework which should send and receive messages concurrently in Ubuntu Linux.
The problem faced is both the threads are created and pthread_join( ) is called for both.The iSend thread is scheduled first but gets suspended at cin. Once the recv( ) function is called, which runs in iRecv thread, the recv call back function handleMessage( ) is called. However the control never shifts back to the iSend thread which should call SendMessage( ) function.

I am trying to write a simple program in C that involves nesting switches. For example switch 1 offers an option to go to module 1 or 2 or quit. when I go to module 1 there is another switch function offering two or more choices.
I can select either module 1 or 2 at the start of the program and the selection text for, say, module 1 prints to screen but then exits without allowing a second selection to be entered.
I tried using free([first selection]) thinking that might do the trick but it doesn't.
Is it possible to next switches on after another in C?

The pthreads library on macos does not have barrier functions (pthread_barrier_t ....). Is there a way to get around this? I know I can do :
#ifdef __APPLE__
pthread_barrier_t ...
#else
my_barrier ...
#endif
But I would like to avoid this approach as there are a lot of places in my program where I would have to make this change. Can I perhaps rebuild the pthreads library on macos without affecting other apps ?

This is very bad even in 11.04! I have an usb disk 40 Gb. And I was loading it with data real fast (svn). At once I could no more write, Read-only file system was reported. I reckon that problem from years ago on redhat, so I try to fix it. But It became worse. It was severe damaged. I created a new filesystem while the disk was out the usb-box and directly connected to de IDE. Started all over, and the error also. Tried to repair with no luck. It looks like the journal get overrun but I'm not sure. However I do think its reproducible. I did it 3 times now and now I am very sick of it. This is happening on a updated 10:10 to 11:04 system, a few weeks ago.
