manual available memory calculation should be done if only memavail is false
Manual Available Memory calculation under kernel 3.14
accurate manaul available memory calculation
Used memory was calculated as Total - Available.
For newer kernels (3.14+), available memory is taken from /proc/meminfo,
whereas for older kernels it is computed as free+buffered+cached.
This commit changes that behavior. Available memory is still taken from
/proc/meminfo, if available, but used memory is always computed as
total-free-buffered-cached.
This way, it matches the output of `free` for used memory (in the -/+
buffers/cache line) and other tools.
Prior to this change, I'd see a reported used memory of 600MiB whereas
free, htop and other tools would report a used memory of 1.8GiB. And
adding used, cached, buffered and free memory would leave ~1.2GiB
unaccounted for.
The order of init function execution is dependant on the order that the
source files are passed to the compiler. This causes issues when
building under other build systems, such as bazel or buck, as they are
not guarenteed to maintain the same file order as the default go tool.
Improve performance by eliminating the fork out to swapinfo on FreeBSD which also helps prevent crashes / hangs due to the outstanding fork crash bug:
golang/go#15658
This also fixes the value reported by SwapMemory and SwapMemoryWithContext on FreeBSD which previously only included the first swap device and also reported the values in terms of 1K blocks instead of bytes.

Replace string parsed values from the sysctl command with native reads of sysctl values using unix.SysctlRaw and unix.SysctlUint32.
This also merges OpenBSD and FreeBSD load implementations which are identical.
This commit adds support for VirtualMemory() in package mem. The support
only extends to total memory capcity, since that is all that is required
in Nomad. It does take into account global versus non-global zones, and
does not use cgo.
This has been tested inside a zone in the Joyent public cloud for a
non-global zone, and in the global zone of a SmartOS virtual machine.
