Techniques for managing process activity statistics using a system-wide daemon are described herein. A power management daemon retrieves process activity status data from a system monitoring file stored within a data processing system, in response to a request received from a session client via an application programming interface (API). The power management daemon is a single system-wide component within the data processing system to provide the process activity status data to a plurality of session clients. The retrieved process activity status data is returned to the client via the API, where the system monitoring file requires a predetermined accessing privilege for accessing. Thus, through the power management daemon, the session client does not have to satisfy the predetermined accessing privilege in order to access the process activity status data stored in the system monitoring file. |
