Exacct

- exacct system calls and error handling

Synopsis

use Sun::Solaris::Exacct qw(:EXACCT_ALL);
my $ea_rec = getacct(P_PID, $$);

Description

This module provides access to the ea_error(3EXACCT) function and for all the extended accounting system calls. Constants from the various libexacct(3LIB) header files are also provided.

Constants

The P_PID, P_TASKID, P_PROJID and all the EW_*, EP_*, EXR_* macros are provided as Perl constants.

Functions

getacct($idtype, $id)

The $idtype parameter must be either P_TASKID or P_PID and $id must be a corresponding task or process ID. This function returns an object of type Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object, representing the unpacked accounting buffer returned by the underlying getacct(2) system call. In the event of error, undef is returned.

putacct($idtype, $id, $record)

The $idtype parameter must be either P_TASKID or P_PID and $id must be a corresponding task or process ID. If $record is of type Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object, it is converted to the corresponding packed libexacct object and passed to the putacct(2) system call. If $record is not of type Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object it is converted to a string using the normal Perl conversion rules and stored as a raw buffer. For predictable and endian-independent results, any raw buffers should be constructed using the Perl pack() function. This function returns true on success and false on failure.

wracct($idtype, $id, $flags)

The $idtype parameter must be either P_TASKID or P_PID and $id must be a corresponding task or process ID. The $flags parameter must be either EW_INTERVAL or EW_PARTIAL. The parameters are passed directly to the underlying wracct(2) system call. This function returns true on success and false on failure.

ea_error()

This function provides access to the ea_error(3EXACCT) function. It returns a double-typed scalar that becomes one of the EXR_* constants. In a string context it becomes a descriptive error message. This is the exacct equivalent to the $!(errno) Perl variable.

ea_error_str()

This function returns a double-typed scalar that in a numeric context will be one of the EXR_* constants as returned by ea_error. In a string context it describes the value returned by ea_error. If ea_error returns EXR_SYSCALL_FAIL, the string value returned is the value returned by strerror(3C). This function is provided as a convenience so that repeated blocks of code like the following can be avoided:

if (ea_error() == EXR_SYSCALL_FAIL) {
        print("error: $!\n");
} else {
        print("error: ", ea_error(), "\n");
}
ea_register_catalog($cat_pfx, $catalog_id, $export, @idlist)

This convenience function is a wrapper around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Catalog->register() method.

ea_new_catalog($integer)
ea_new_catalog($cat_obj)
ea_new_catalog($type, $catalog, $id)

These convenience functions are wrappers around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Catalog->new() method. See Exacct::Catalog(3PERL).

ea_new_file($name, $oflags, creator => $creator, aflags => $aflags, mode => $mode)

This convenience function is a wrapper around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::File->new() method. See Exacct::File(3PERL).

ea_new_item($catalog, $value)

This convenience function is a wrapper around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Item->new() method. See Exacct::Object::Item(3PERL).

ea_new_group($catalog, @objects)

This convenience function is a wrapper around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object::Group->new() method. See Exacct::Object::Group(3PERL).

ea_dump_object($object, $filehandle)

This convenience function is a wrapper around the Sun::Solaris::Exacct::Object->dump() method. See Exacct::Object(3PERL).

Class methods

None.

Object methods

None.

Notes

The modules described in the section 3PERL manual pages make extensive use of the Perl "double-typed scalar" facility. This facility allows a scalar value to behave either as an integer or as a string, depending upon context. It is the same behavior as exhibited by the $! Perl variable (errno). It is useful because it avoids the need to map from an integer value to the corresponding string to display a value. Some examples are provided below:

# Assume $obj is a Sun::Solaris::Item
my $type = $obj->type();

# Print "2 EO_ITEM"
printf("%d %s\n", $type, $type);

# Behave as an integer, $i == 2
my $i = 0 + $type;

# Behave as a string, $s = "abc EO_ITEM xyx"
my $s = "abc $type xyz";

Wherever a function or method is documented as returning a double-typed scalar, the returned value exhibits this type of behavior.
