Help with mdb ::memstat and kstat commands

807559May 16 2006
hello

I'm trying to work out exactly what the "Anon" row in mdb -k ::memstat output means. I assume it works by using statistics available using kstat, but I'd really like to know exactly which ones. I've seen that "Anon" memory is used for heap, stack, copy-on-write and shared memory, but I can't dig out matching kstat statistics.

Anyone either know the answer, or know a good resource for understanding what kstat statistics are available?

Phil
