我应该调用什么API来获得系统正常运行时间?

您要查找的系统调用是sysinfo()。

它在sys/sysinfo.h中定义

其签名为: int sysinfo(结构sysinfo*信息)

自内核2.4以来,结构如下:

struct sysinfo {
    long uptime;             /* Seconds since boot */
    unsigned long loads[3];  /* 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages */
    unsigned long totalram;  /* Total usable main memory size */
    unsigned long freeram;   /* Available memory size */
    unsigned long sharedram; /* Amount of shared memory */
    unsigned long bufferram; /* Memory used by buffers */
    unsigned long totalswap; /* Total swap space size */
    unsigned long freeswap;  /* swap space still available */
    unsigned short procs;    /* Number of current processes */
    unsigned long totalhigh; /* Total high memory size */
    unsigned long freehigh;  /* Available high memory size */
    unsigned int mem_unit;   /* Memory unit size in bytes */
    char _f[20-2*sizeof(long)-sizeof(int)]; /* Padding for libc5 */
};

玩得高兴!

就像这样。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <linux/unistd.h>       /* for _syscallX macros/related stuff */
#include <linux/kernel.h>       /* for struct sysinfo */
#include <sys/sysinfo.h>

long get_uptime()
{
    struct sysinfo s_info;
    int error = sysinfo(&s_info);
    if(error != 0)
    {
        printf("code error = %d\n", error);
    }
    return s_info.uptime;
}

有关更多信息,请参阅“man sysinfo”。

读取文件 /proc/uptime 以第一个十进制数作为正常运行时间(秒)。

从 man 5 proc :

   /proc/uptime
          This file contains two numbers: the uptime of the  system  (sec‐
          onds), and the amount of time spent in idle process (seconds).

还有 clock_gettime (可能需要) -lrt )我所看到的行为(我不会声称它是有保证的),但是 CLOCK_MONOTONIC 作为 clk_id 是返回给定时间内的系统正常运行时间 struct timespec * 参数。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
  struct timespec t;
  clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, &t);
  printf("tv_sec=%llu tv_nsec=%llu\n",
    (unsigned long long)t.tv_sec,
    (unsigned long long)t.tv_nsec);
  return 0;
}

#include <sys/sysinfo.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

  printf("\033[4;40m            Systems information                   \033[0;m \n");
  if(sysinfo(&sys_info) != 0)
    perror("sysinfo");

  days = sys_info.uptime / 86400;
