Arguments:

type

The type of event you want to add; one of the following:

• PROCMGR_VALUE_FREE_MEM—the amount of system free memory
• PROCMGR_VALUE_PRIVATE_MEM—the amount of MAP_PRIVATE memory for a process

You can OR this with one of the following:

• PROCMGR_VALUE_TRIGGER_UP—deliver the event when the value rises to the trigger point
• PROCMGR_VALUE_TRIGGER_DOWN—deliver the event when the value drops to the trigger point

sub_id

A sub-ID associated with the type:

• For PROCMGR_VALUE_FREE_MEM, specify 0 for the total memory, or 1 for resident memory.
• For PROCMGR_VALUE_PRIVATE_MEM, specify the process ID of the process.

value

The trigger point.

event

A pointer to the sigevent that you want to be delivered.

Description:

The procmgr_value_notify_add() function sets up an event to be triggered when the value being monitored crosses the trigger point up (PROCMGR_VALUE_TRIGGER_UP) or down (PROCMGR_VALUE_TRIGGER_DOWN).

For example, PROCMGR_VALUE_FREE_MEM | PROCMGR_VALUE_TRIGGER_DOWN causes the event to be delivered when the system free memory drops to the specified trigger value.

If you just want to read the value with procmgr_value_current(), don't specify either of the trigger bits.

To delete the notification, call procmgr_event_notify_delete(), passing it the ID that procmgr_value_notify_add() returns.

Returns:

An event ID, or -1 if there was an error ( errno is set).
