NAME
acct - execution accounting file
SYNOPSIS
#include<sys/acct.h>
DESCRIPTION
The kernel maintains an accounting information structure for all pro-
cesses. If a process terminates, and accounting is enabled, the kernel
calls the acct(2) function to prepare, and then append, a record for
this process to the accounting file. The accounting structure struct
acct is also described in the file /usr/include/linux/acct.h.
