processes and swapping

Hi,

Couple of questions:

1. How to determine the number of processes in memory ?  (inside
kernel code, not shell : ps -ef | wc -l )

2. Is there any provision for swapping out entire process in linux (as
solaris has)  ?
If no, then how to make sure that a process all of whose pages have
been swapped out is not scheduled again ? (may be by changing the
process-state)
And, how to later enable the process so that it gets scheduled ?
