Kernel Commands
A new set of kernel-related commands has been developed that have a common behavior. This section covers all the commands and provides examples of using some of them.
kcmodule
kcmodule queries and changes kernel modules in the currently running kernel configuration or a saved kernel configuration that you are staging for future use. Hundreds of modules are present in an HP-UX kernel that consists of device drivers, kernel subsystems, and other kernel code.
kcmodule with no options provides the modules in your system and both their current state and the state on next boot if any changes are pending, as shown in this abbreviated example:
# kcmodule

.
.
.
This abbreviated output shows some of the modules in the system without much detail. We modify the last module shown, idds, in a later example. To get detailed information on a specific module, use the -v option, as shown for vxfs:
# kcmodule -v vxfs
Module vxfs [3F559170]
Description Veritas Journal File System (VxFS)
State static (best state)
State at Next Boot static (best state)
Capable static unused
Depends On module libvxfs:0.0.0
interface HPUX_11_23:1.0
#This verbose output shows more information for the specific module that we specified, or would have shown verbose output for every module if I had not specified the name of a specific module.
For every module in the verbose output, there is a name and description such as a name of vxfs, the version number in square brackets after the name, and a short description of the module in the example. It is possible for multiple versions to be listed if, for instance, the currently running kernel uses a different version than will be used on the next boot.
The state of the module is relative to the currently running kernel (which is shown in the example), the next boot (both the currently running and next boot states are shown), or a saved configuration. The module in the example is for the currently running kernel, so static means that the module is statically bound into the kernel and changing this state would require relinking the kernel executable and rebooting. The module could also be in the unused state, which means it is installed but not used, the loaded state, which means it has been dynamically loaded into the kernel, or the auto state, which means it will be dynamically loaded when it is first needed but hasn't been loaded yet.
The following list shows commonly used options to kcmodule:
kcmodule command-line flags:
-a
Includes all modules in the output.
-B
Backs up the currently running configuration prior to changing it.
-c config
Specifies the saved configuration to manage. If none is specified, manage the currently running configuration.
-C comment
Includes a comment pertaining to this invocation of the command in the kernel configuration log file.
-d
Adds the description for each item.
-D
Displays elements for which there is a pending change at the next boot.
-h
Holds the specified change(s) for the next boot.
-K
Keeps the currently running configuration, but does not back it up. Keep the existing backup unmodified.
-P
Parses using the specified output format.
-S
Displays the elements that have been set to something other than the default.
-v
Displays items using verbose output.
Some of these options will be used in the upcoming example of updating the kernel.
kctune
kctune queries and changes the value of kernel tunable parameters in the currently running kernel configuration or a saved kernel configuration that you are staging for future use.
kctune with no options provides the parameters in your system, as shown in the following abbreviated example:
# kctune

This output shows the tunable parameter, its current value, the expressions used to compute the value (which is the default in all cases in the example except for maxfiles), and changes to the value if any are pending. In an upcoming example, I modify the nproc tunable.
Using the -d option, which also works with kcmodule, adds a description for each parameter, as shown in the following truncated example:
# kctune -d
Tunable Value Expression Changes
Description
NSTREVENT 50 Default
Maximum number of concurrent Streams bufcalls
NSTRPUSH 16 Default
Maximum number of Streams modules in a stream

.
.
.
Each module now has a more detailed description associated with it as a result of using the -d option.
To group parameters based on the kernel module that defines the tunable, use the -g option, as shown in the following abbreviated example:
# kctune -g

This output shows all the tunables grouped with their kernel modules. You can see that, in the case of the fs module, for example, many tunables are associated with some modules.
The -v output, as shown in the following abbreviated example, provides a lot of tunable-related information:
# kctune -v
Tunable NSTREVENT
Description Maximum number of concurrent Streams bufcalls
Module hpstreams
Current Value 50 [Default]
Value at Next Boot 50 [Default]
Value at Last Boot 50
Default Value 50

Tunable NSTRPUSH
Description Maximum number of Streams modules in a stream
Module hpstreams
Current Value 16 [Default]
Value at Next Boot 16 [Default]

This output shows additional information, including the value the parameter will have upon the next boot.
All tunables have manual pages. If, for example, you want to know more about a tunable, just issue the man for the tunable, as shown in the following example for nproc:
# man nproc
nproc(5) nproc(5)
Tunable Kernel Parameters
NAME
nproc - limits the number of processes allowed to exist simultaneously
VALUES
Failsafe
4200
Default
4200
Allowed values
100 - 30000
This may be set higher, but more will not be used. Setting nproc
below 110 will interfere with the systems ability to execute in
multi-user mode. Some configurations may have a higher minimum.
nproc must be greater than nkthread + 100.
Standard input
Only the beginning of the nproc output is shown, but you can see there is a lot of useful information in the man page, such as the default and allowed values. The following list shows commonly used options to kctune.
kctune command-line flags:
-a
Includes all information in the output that is normally suppressed.
-B
Backs up the currently running configuration prior to changing it.
-c config
Specifies the saved configuration to manage. If none is specified, manages the currently running configuration.
-C comment
Includes a comment pertaining to this invocation of the command in the kernel configuration log file.
-d
Displays the descriptions of each item.
-D
Displays elements for which there is a pending change at the next boot.
-g
Groups related tunables in the output.
-h
Holds the specified change(s) for the next boot.
-K
Keeps the currently running configuration, but does not back it up. Keeps the existing backup unmodified.
-P
Parses using the specified output format.
-S
Displays the elements that have been set to something other than the default.
-u
Allows the creation of user-defined tunables.
-v
Displays items using verbose output.
Some of these options are used in the upcoming kernel configuration example.
kconfig
kconfig manages kernel configurations.
Running kconfig with no options shows you all the saved kernel configurations on your system. You can view the output using -a for all, -v for verbose, and -P for parse.
Changes to the kernel can be delayed until the next boot using the -n option to kconfig. (Next boot options are also available with the -h option for kcmodule and kctune.)
To obtain a list of changes being held for the next boot, you would use the -D option to kconfig to show differences between the currently running kernel and what is planned for the next boot. You could also run kcmodule and kctune with the -D option to get this same list. If you don't want these changes to be applied at the next boot, use the -H option to kconfig, which "unholds" the settings.
To obtain a list of non-default kernel values, use the -S option to kconfig. This too is a shortcut for running both kcmodule and kctune with the -S option.
You can specify a saved configuration with no option to kconfig by just naming it on the command line or by using the -c option for kcmodule and kctune.
If you have made changes to the currently running kernel and want to save, use the -s option to kconfig.
You can load a saved configuration using the -l option to kconfig. If the configuration can be loaded without a reboot, the change takes effect immediately. If not, the change is held for the next reboot. You can specify that the change be applied at the next reboot with the -n option for kconfig. You can identify the configuration to be loaded a the next boot using the -w option to kconfig.
Several of these options are used in the upcoming kernel reconfiguration example.
The following is a list of commonly used kconfig options.
kconfig command-line flags:
-a
Includes all information in the output that is normally suppressed. This provides a lot of information so you may want to pipe this to more.
-B
Backs up the currently running configuration prior to changing it.
-C comment
Includes a comment pertaining to this invocation of the command in the kernel configuration log file.
-d config
Deletes the specified kernel configuration.
-D
Displays elements for which there is a pending change at the next boot.
-e
Exports the saved configuration.
-h
Holds the specified change(s) for the next boot.
-H
Discards all changes being held for the next boot.
-i config
Imports the specified configuration.
-K
Keeps the currently running configuration, but does not back it up. Keeps the existing backup unmodified.
-l config
Loads the specified configuration.
-P
Parses using the specified output format.
-S
Displays the elements that have been set to something other than the default.
-v
Displays items using verbose output.
kclog
kclog manages the kernel configuration log file.
All the commands previously covered (kcmodule, kctune, and kconfig) update and maintain the kernel configuration plain text log file called /var/adm/kc.log. You can view this file directly to see the kernel-related commands that have been issued, which is the way that I view kernel-related changes, or issue the kclog command to view /var/adm/kc.log.
kclog has the following commonly used command-line flags:
kclog commonly used command line options:
-a
Prints all entries matching
-c config
Prints log file entries from the specified configuration.
-C comment
Includes the specified comment.
kcusage
kcusage shows the usage level of kernel resources. If you issue the kcusage command with no options, you get output for the currently running system, as shown in the following output:
# kcusage

This is an idle system so the resources are used minimally.
You can specify the time period over which data should be printed, including 24 hours, 31 days, and 52 weeks. Two interesting options to kcusage are -l, which prints a long format, and -t, which prints the top 5 users or processes that have consumed each resource. The following is an obviated listing of these two outputs:

kcalarm has the following command-line flags:
-a
Adds a tunable alarm.
-d
Deletes a tunable alarm.
-F
Forces a change in the status of an alarm.
-t threshold
Sets the threshold, which is based on a percentage of the current tunable value, such as 80%, which is the default
-e
Specifies the type of event that will trigger an alarm, such as initial, repeat, or return
-i interval
Specifies the sampling interval of the tunable in minutes. The default is 5 minutes
-c comment
