.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In unistd.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn acct "const char *file"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn acct
|
|
system call enables or disables the collection of system accounting
|
|
records.
|
|
If the argument
|
|
.Fa file
|
|
is a null pointer, accounting is disabled.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa file
|
|
is an
|
|
.Em existing
|
|
pathname (null-terminated), record collection is enabled and for
|
|
every process initiated which terminates under normal
|
|
conditions an accounting record is appended to
|
|
.Fa file .
|
|
Abnormal conditions of termination are reboots
|
|
or other fatal system problems.
|
|
Records for processes which never terminate cannot be
|
|
produced by
|
|
.Fn acct .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For more information on the record structure used by
|
|
.Fn acct ,
|
|
see
|
|
.In sys/acct.h
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr acct 5 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This call is permitted only to the super-user.
|
|
.Sh NOTES
|
|
Accounting is automatically disabled when the file system the
|
|
accounting file resides on runs out of space; it is enabled when
|
|
space once again becomes available.
|
|
The values controlling this behaviour can be modified using the following
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Va kern.acct_chkfreq"
|
|
.It Va kern.acct_chkfreq
|
|
Specifies the frequency (in seconds) with which free disk
|
|
space should be checked.
|
|
.It Va kern.acct_resume
|
|
The percentage of free disk space above which process
|
|
accounting will resume.
|
|
.It Va kern.acct_suspend
|
|
The percentage of free disk space below which process
|
|
accounting will suspend.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
On error -1 is returned.
|
|
The file must exist and the call may be exercised only by the super-user.
|
|
