    Hello...

    I am wondering is there is a way to obtain resource usage
    from the kernel w/o doing a kernel call from a program
    (can I get this from /proc/?? ?).

    For example, I am interested in discriminating between
    processor idle time, time spent in processes, etc.

    Is this possible, or will I have to get this accounting
    information from the kernel via a module/system call?

    Thanks

    Tom
