+other section.

+
+API
+---
+
+.. c:function:: uv_handle_type uv_guess_handle(uv_file file)
+
+ Used to detect what type of stream should be used with a given file
+ descriptor. Usually this will be used during initialization to guess the
+ type of the stdio streams.
+
+ For ``isatty()`` functionality use this function and test for ``UV_TTY``.
+
+.. c:function:: unsigned int uv_version(void)
+
+ Returns the libuv version packed into a single integer. 8 bits are used for
+ each component, with the patch number stored in the 8 least significant
+ bits. E.g. for libuv 1.2.3 this would return 0x010203.
+
+.. c:function:: const char* uv_version_string(void)
+
+ Returns the libuv version number as a string. For non-release versions
+ "-pre" is appended, so the version number could be "1.2.3-pre".
+
+.. c:function:: uv_buf_t uv_buf_init(char* base, unsigned int len)
+
+ Constructor for :c:type:`uv_buf_t`.
+
+ Due to platform differences the user cannot rely on the ordering of the
+ `base` and `len` members of the uv_buf_t struct. The user is responsible for
+ freeing `base` after the uv_buf_t is done. Return struct passed by value.
+
+.. c:function:: char** uv_setup_args(int argc, char** argv)
+
+ Store the program arguments. Required for getting / setting the process title.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_get_process_title(char* buffer, size_t size)
+
+ Gets the title of the current process.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_set_process_title(const char* title)
+
+ Sets the current process title.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_resident_set_memory(size_t* rss)
+
+ Gets the resident set size (RSS) for the current process.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_uptime(double* uptime)
+
+ Gets the current system uptime.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_getrusage(uv_rusage_t* rusage)
+
+ Gets the resource usage measures for the current process.
+
+ .. note::
+ On Windows not all fields are set, the unsupported fields are filled with zeroes.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_cpu_info(uv_cpu_info_t** cpu_infos, int* count)
+
+ Gets information about the CPUs on the system. The `cpu_infos` array will
+ have `count` elements and needs to be freed with :c:func:`uv_free_cpu_info`.
+
+.. c:function:: void uv_free_cpu_info(uv_cpu_info_t* cpu_infos, int count)
+
+ Frees the `cpu_infos` array previously allocated with :c:func:`uv_cpu_info`.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_interface_addresses(uv_interface_address_t** addresses, int* count)
+
+ Gets address information about the network interfaces on the system. An
+ array of `count` elements is allocated and returned in `addresses`. It must
+ be freed by the user, calling :c:func:`uv_free_interface_addresses`.
+
+.. c:function:: void uv_free_interface_addresses(uv_interface_address_t* addresses, int count)
+
+ Free an array of :c:type:`uv_interface_address_t` which was returned by
+ :c:func:`uv_interface_addresses`.
+
+.. c:function:: void uv_loadavg(double avg[3])
+
+ Gets the load average. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)
+
+ .. note::
+ Returns [0,0,0] on Windows (i.e., it's not implemented).
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_ip4_addr(const char* ip, int port, struct sockaddr_in* addr)
+
+ Convert a string containing an IPv4 addresses to a binary structure.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_ip6_addr(const char* ip, int port, struct sockaddr_in6* addr)
+
+ Convert a string containing an IPv6 addresses to a binary structure.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_ip4_name(const struct sockaddr_in* src, char* dst, size_t size)
+
+ Convert a binary structure containing an IPv4 addres to a string.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_ip6_name(const struct sockaddr_in6* src, char* dst, size_t size)
+
+ Convert a binary structure containing an IPv6 addres to a string.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_inet_ntop(int af, const void* src, char* dst, size_t size)
+.. c:function:: int uv_inet_pton(int af, const char* src, void* dst)
+
+ Cross-platform IPv6-capable implementation of the 'standard' ``inet_ntop()``
+ and ``inet_pton()`` functions. On success they return 0. In case of error
+ the target `dst` pointer is unmodified.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_exepath(char* buffer, size_t* size)
+
+ Gets the executable path.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_cwd(char* buffer, size_t* size)
+
+ Gets the current working directory.
+
+.. c:function:: int uv_chdir(const char* dir)
+
+ Changes the current working directory.
+
+.. uint64_t uv_get_free_memory(void)
+.. c:function:: uint64_t uv_get_total_memory(void)
+
+ Gets memory information (in bytes).
+
+.. c:function:: uint64_t uv_hrtime(void)
+
+ Returns the current high-resolution real time. This is expressed in
+ nanoseconds. It is relative to an arbitrary time in the past. It is not
+ related to the time of day and therefore not subject to clock drift. The
+ primary use is for measuring performance between intervals.
+
+ .. note::
+ Not every platform can support nanosecond resolution; however, this value will always
+ be in nanoseconds.
