◆ loadArray

using loadArray = std::array<double,3>

Definition at line 22 of file mythmiscutil.h.

Function Documentation

◆ getUptime()

MBASE_PUBLIC bool getUptime ( std::chrono::seconds &  uptime)

◆ getMemStats()

getMemStats ( int &  totalMB,
int &  freeMB,
int &  totalVM,
int &  freeVM 
)

Returns memory statistics in megabytes.

Todo:
Memory Statistics are not supported (by MythTV) on NT or DOS.
Returns
true if it succeeds, false otherwise.

◆ getLoadAvgs()

MBASE_PUBLIC loadArray getLoadAvgs ( void  )

Returns the system load averages.

Returns
A std::array<double,3> containing the system load averages. If the system call fails or is unsupported, returns array containing all -1.

◆ ping()

MBASE_PUBLIC bool ping ( const QString &  host,
std::chrono::milliseconds  timeout 
)

Can we ping host within timeout seconds?

Different operating systems use different parameters to specify a timeout to the ping command. FreeBSD and derivatives use '-t'; Linux and derivatives use '-w'. Using the right parameter also eliminates the need for the old behavior of falling back to pinging the localhost with and without a timeout, in order to characterize whether the right parameter was used in the first place.

Note
If ping fails to timeout on another supported platform, determine what parameter that platform's ping requires to specify the timeout and add another case to the #ifdef statement.

◆ myth_ioprio()

MBASE_PUBLIC bool myth_ioprio ( int  )

range -1..8, smaller is higher priority

range -1..8, smaller is higher priority

As of November 14th, 2010 this only works on Linux when using the CFQ I/O Scheduler. The range is -1 to 8, with -1 being real-time priority 0 through 7 being standard best-time priorities and 8 being the idle priority. The deadline and noop I/O Schedulers will ignore this but are much less likely to starve video playback to feed the transcoder or flagger. (noop is only recommended for SSDs.)

Since a process needs to have elevated priviledges to use either the real-time or idle priority this will try priorities 0 or 7 respectively if -1 or 8 do not work. It will not report an error on these conditions as they will be the common case.

Only Linux on i386, ppc, x86_64 and ia64 are currently supported. This is a no-op on all other architectures and platforms.

◆ MythRemoveDirectory()

MBASE_PUBLIC bool MythRemoveDirectory ( QDir &  aDir)

◆ setHttpProxy()

MBASE_PUBLIC void setHttpProxy ( void  )

Get network proxy settings from OS, and use for [Q]Http[Comms].

The HTTP_PROXY environment var. is parsed for values like; "proxy-host", "proxy-host:8080", "http://host:8080" and "http"//user:password@host:1080", and that is used for any Qt-based Http fetches. We also test connectivity here with ping and telnet, and warn if it fails.

If there is was no env. var, we use Qt to get proxy settings from the OS, and search through them for a proxy server we can connect to.
