# Copyright 2011-2015, Damian Johnson and The Tor Project # See LICENSE for licensing information """ Helper functions for querying process and system information from the /proc contents. Fetching information this way provides huge performance benefits over lookups via system utilities (ps, netstat, etc). For instance, resolving connections this way cuts the runtime by around 90% verses the alternatives. These functions may not work on all platforms (only Linux?). The method for reading these files (and a little code) are borrowed from `psutil `_, which was written by Jay Loden, Dave Daeschler, Giampaolo Rodola' and is under the BSD license. **These functions are not being vended to stem users. They may change in the future, use them at your own risk.** .. versionchanged:: 1.3.0 Dropped the get_* prefix from several function names. The old names still work, but are deprecated aliases. **Module Overview:** :: is_available - checks if proc utilities can be used on this system system_start_time - unix timestamp for when the system started physical_memory - memory available on this system cwd - provides the current working directory for a process uid - provides the user id a process is running under memory_usage - provides the memory usage of a process stats - queries statistics about a process file_descriptors_used - number of file descriptors used by a process connections - provides the connections made by a process .. data:: Stat (enum) Types of data available via the :func:`~stem.util.proc.stats` function. ============== =========== Stat Description ============== =========== **COMMAND** command name under which the process is running **CPU_UTIME** total user time spent on the process **CPU_STIME** total system time spent on the process **START_TIME** when this process began, in unix time ============== =========== """ import base64 import os import platform import socket import sys import time import stem.util.enum from stem.util import log try: # added in python 3.2 from functools import lru_cache except ImportError: from stem.util.lru_cache import lru_cache # os.sysconf is only defined on unix try: CLOCK_TICKS = os.sysconf(os.sysconf_names['SC_CLK_TCK']) except AttributeError: CLOCK_TICKS = None Stat = stem.util.enum.Enum( ('COMMAND', 'command'), ('CPU_UTIME', 'utime'), ('CPU_STIME', 'stime'), ('START_TIME', 'start time') ) @lru_cache() def is_available(): """ Checks if proc information is available on this platform. :returns: **True** if proc contents exist on this platform, **False** otherwise """ if platform.system() != 'Linux': return False else: # list of process independent proc paths we use proc_paths = ('/proc/stat', '/proc/meminfo', '/proc/net/tcp', '/proc/net/udp') for path in proc_paths: if not os.path.exists(path): return False return True @lru_cache() def system_start_time(): """ Provides the unix time (seconds since epoch) when the system started. :returns: **float** for the unix time of when the system started :raises: **IOError** if it can't be determined """ start_time, parameter = time.time(), 'system start time' btime_line = _get_line('/proc/stat', 'btime', parameter) try: result = float(btime_line.strip().split()[1]) _log_runtime(parameter, '/proc/stat[btime]', start_time) return result except: exc = IOError('unable to parse the /proc/stat btime entry: %s' % btime_line) _log_failure(parameter, exc) raise exc @lru_cache() def physical_memory(): """ Provides the total physical memory on the system in bytes. :returns: **int** for the bytes of physical memory this system has :raises: **IOError** if it can't be determined """ start_time, parameter = time.time(), 'system physical memory' mem_total_line = _get_line('/proc/meminfo', 'MemTotal:', parameter) try: result = int(mem_total_line.split()[1]) * 1024 _log_runtime(parameter, '/proc/meminfo[MemTotal]', start_time) return result except: exc = IOError('unable to parse the /proc/meminfo MemTotal entry: %s' % mem_total_line) _log_failure(parameter, exc) raise exc def cwd(pid): """ Provides the current working directory for the given process. :param int pid: process id of the process to be queried :returns: **str** with the path of the working directory for the process :raises: **IOError** if it can't be determined """ start_time, parameter = time.time(), 'cwd' proc_cwd_link = '/proc/%s/cwd' % pid if pid == 0: cwd = '' else: try: cwd = os.readlink(proc_cwd_link) except OSError: exc = IOError('unable to read %s' % proc_cwd_link) _log_failure(parameter, exc) raise exc _log_runtime(parameter, proc_cwd_link, start_time) return cwd def uid(pid): """ Provides the user ID the given process is running under. :param int pid: process id of the process to be queried :returns: **int** with the user id for the owner of the process :raises: **IOError** if it can't be determined """ start_time, parameter = time.time(), 'uid' status_path = '/proc/%s/status' % pid uid_line = _get_line(status_path, 'Uid:', parameter) try: result = int(uid_line.split()[1]) _log_runtime(parameter, '%s[Uid]' % status_path, start_time) return result except: exc = IOError('unable to parse the %s Uid entry: %s' % (status_path, uid_line)) _log_failure(parameter, exc) raise exc def memory_usage(pid): """ Provides the memory usage in bytes for the given process. :param int pid: process id of the process to be queried :returns: **tuple** of two ints with the memory usage of the process, of the form **(resident_size, virtual_size)** :raises: **IOError** if it can't be determined """ # checks if this is the kernel process if pid == 0: return (0, 0) start_time, parameter = time.time(), 'memory usage' status_path = '/proc/%s/status' % pid mem_lines = _get_lines(status_path, ('VmRSS:', 'VmSize:'), parameter) try: residentSize = int(mem_lines['VmRSS:'].split()[1]) * 1024 virtualSize = int(mem_lines['VmSize:'].split()[1]) * 1024 _log_runtime(parameter, '%s[VmRSS|VmSize]' % status_path, start_time) return (residentSize, virtualSize) except: exc = IOError('unable to parse the %s VmRSS and VmSize entries: %s' % (status_path, ', '.join(mem_lines))) _log_failure(parameter, exc) raise exc def stats(pid, *stat_types): """ Provides process specific information.
