       sys_attrs_kevm - kevm subsystem attributes

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       This reference page lists and describes attributes for the
       Kernel Event Manager (kevm)  subsystem.  See  sys_attrs(5)
       for  general  guidelines about changing system attributes.
       See evm(5) for more information about Event Manager  software.


       An  asterisk (*) preceding the name of an attribute in the
       following list means that the attribute can be  configured
       at  run time. Values of other attributes cannot be changed
       without rebooting the system.  A value that can be used to
       reinitialize  all of the kevm stats_* attributes. Changing
       do_reset_stats  to  any  non-zero  value  causes  all  the
       stats_*   attributes   to  be  reset  to  zero,  and  then
       do_reset_stats itself is automatically reset to zero.

              Default value: 0

              Minimum value: 0

              Maximum value: 2,147,483,647

              If you use dxkerneltuner to  change  the  value  of
              do_reset_stats,  the  updated  attribute values are
              not visible until you exit  and  restart  dxkerneltuner.
   The  number of EVM events currently queued
              in kernel space for collection by the  EVM  daemon.
              This  attribute is query only.  The size (in bytes)
              of the fixed buffer used to queue  any  EVM  events
              that  are  posted  while the kernel is executing at
              interrupt level. Events are moved out of the buffer
              as  soon  as the system returns to normal operating
              mode. The default buffer size  should  be  adequate
              for most systems.

              Default value: 65, 536 (bytes)

              Minimum value: 1

              Maximum value: 1,844,674,407,370 A value that indicates
 whether a process (such as  kevmd)  currently
              has  or does not have the kevm interface in an open
              state. The value 1 means that  a  process  has  the
              interface  open  (always  the case if kevmd is running)
 and the value 0 means that no process has the
              interface  open. This attribute is query only.  The
              major device number being used by the  kevm  interface.
  This attribute is query only.  The number of
              EVM events that have  been  posted  in  the  kernel
              since the the system was started or the counter was
              reset.  You can reset stats_events_in directly,  or
              by changing do_reset_stats to a non-zero value.

              Minimum value: 0

              Maximum  value:  2,147,483,647  The  number  of EVM
              events that have been read from kernel space by the
              EVM  daemon  (evmd) since the system was started or
              the   counter   was   reset.    You    can    reset
              stats_events_read    manually    or   by   changing
              do_reset_stats to a non-zero value.

              Minimum value: 0

              Maximum value: 2,147,483,647 The highest number  of
              EVM  events  that  have been queued in kernel space
              waiting to be collected by the EVM daemon since the
              the  system  was  started or the counter was reset.
              You can reset  stats_queue_high_watermark  manually
              or  by changing do_reset_stats to a non-zero value.

              Minimum value: 0

              Maximum value: 2,147,483,647
