You could try it by accessing /proc//status or the other 'files' there if you have /proc in your kernel...

I don't think there is an equivalent on Linux. This means you will have to find the relevant inormation from other system calls and asn Elmar suggest above, from the /proc filesystem.

You can use "ps ax | wc -l" to get the process total, but I have not found yet a way to count total open files.

Another (dirty) answer is ;

echo `find /proc/[0-9]* -path '*/fd/*' | wc -l` / \
`cat /proc/sys/kernel/file-max`
