Re: Information From Buffers

[Artur Baruchi]

Hi Wang.

Thanks for your reply.

No, inside /proc/meminfo there are just high level information (macro)
about what is going on inside the memory. I need do get more details
about page cache, things like, what files are being buffered, how much
files are being buffered, size of this files, etc. This information
can be reach using buffer_head linked list, but I dont know how to
walk through this list.

Thanks.
