NAME
showq - state of stream I/O system
SYNOPSIS
/etc/showq [ -v -V -s -m ] [ system ] [ mem ]
DESCRIPTION
Showq reports connectivity and contents of I/O streams. By default, it
lists the maximum number of stream blocks (of various sizes) ever used,
then each stream and the queue modules in each stream, and then blocks
that are unaccounted for (not on any queue or the free list).
By default, the system namelist is /unix and the place the streams are
kept is /dev/mem.
These flags are understood:
-v Verbose. Show more, in particular the contents of data and con‐
trol blocks on each queue.
-V Very verbose. Show all blocks on every queue instead of giving
up after a while.
-s Silent. Examine queues for consistency, printing only a sum‐
mary.
-m Missing. Show the contents of missing blocks. (Perhaps this
will give a clue about who lost them.)
