Function Documentation

◆ get_cpu_load()

double Utilities::System::get_cpu_load ( )

Return the CPU load as returned by "uptime". Note that the interpretation of this number depends on the actual number of processors in the machine. This is presently only implemented on Linux, using the /proc/loadavg pseudo-file, on other systems we simply return zero.

Definition at line 909 of file utilities.cc.

◆ get_current_vectorization_level()

const std::string Utilities::System::get_current_vectorization_level ( )

Return the current level of vectorization as described by DEAL_II_COMPILER_VECTORIZATION_LEVEL in vectorization.h as a string. The list of possible return values is:

VECTORIZATION_LEVEL Return Value Width in bits
0 disabled 64
1 SSE2 128
2 AVX 256
3 AVX512 512

Definition at line 917 of file utilities.cc.

◆ get_memory_stats()

void Utilities::System::get_memory_stats ( MemoryStats stats)

Fill the stats structure with information about the memory consumption of this process. This is only implemented on Linux.

Definition at line 943 of file utilities.cc.

◆ get_hostname()

std::string Utilities::System::get_hostname ( )

Return the name of the host this process runs on.

Definition at line 977 of file utilities.cc.

◆ get_time()

std::string Utilities::System::get_time ( )

Return the present time as HH:MM:SS.

Definition at line 992 of file utilities.cc.

◆ get_date()

std::string Utilities::System::get_date ( )

Return the present date as YYYY/MM/DD. MM and DD may be either one or two digits.

Definition at line 1008 of file utilities.cc.

◆ posix_memalign()

void Utilities::System::posix_memalign ( void **  memptr,
std::size_t  alignment,
std::size_t  size 
)

Call the system function posix_memalign, or a replacement function if not available, to allocate memory with a certain minimal alignment. The first argument will then return a pointer to this memory block that can be released later on through a standard free call.

Parameters
memptrThe address of a pointer variable that will after this call point to the allocated memory.
alignmentThe minimal alignment of the memory block, in bytes.
sizeThe size of the memory block to be allocated, in bytes.
Note
This function checks internally for error codes, rather than leaving this task to the calling site.
