[GNU/Linux] looking for a iotop-like program but written in pure C

(1/9) > >>

DiTBho:
iotop is written in Python, which I cannot support on my embedded router.

looking for an alternative, written in C.

is there anything?  :-//

before I start writing by myself

thanks!
have you already tried it?

Going to add it to the new Catalyst-stage4 profile ;D
it will be tested next week!

SiliconWizard:
Yes, just compiled it and tried on Arch Linux.
It seems to work fine so far.

DiTBho:
so, iotop-c compiled on different machines, and

1) it perfectly works on my PC, i686-GNU-Linux
2) it doesn't correctly work on my router, MIPS32/LE-GNU-Linux

reports are always zero, and something triggers prIO to fail with an error


--- Code: ---struct xxxid_stats *ms=cs->sor[i],*s;
...
                        if (!config.f.hideprio)
                        {
                                char c=' ';

                                if (k==-1&&th_prio_diff)
                                {
                                        c='!';
                                }
                                if (s->error_i) <---------------- something triggers this
                                {
                                        attron(config.f.nocolor?A_ITALIC:COLOR_PAIR(RED_PAIR));
                                        printw("tp_#1 ");
                                        attroff(config.f.nocolor?A_ITALIC:COLOR_PAIR(RED_PAIR));
                                }
                                else
                                {
                                        printw("%c%4s ",c,str_ioprio(s->io_prio));
                                }
                        }
