| 46 | .PP | |
| 47 | The \fImincore\fP system call | |
| 48 | allows a process to obtain information about whether pages are | |
| 49 | core resident. | |
| 50 | Here the current core residency of the pages is returned | |
| 51 | in the character array \fIvec\fP, with a value of 1 meaning | |
| 52 | that the page is in-core. | |
