29.Dt PROCSTAT 1
30.Os
31.Sh NAME
32.Nm procstat
33.Nd get detailed process information
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Nm
36.Op Fl -libxo
37.Op Fl CHhn
38.Op Fl w Ar interval
39.Op Fl b | c | e | f | i | j | k | l | r | s | S | t | v | x
40.Op Fl a | Ar pid | Ar core ...
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42The
43.Nm
44utility displays detailed information about the processes identified by the
45.Ar pid
46arguments, or if the
47.Fl a
48flag is used, all processes.
49It can also display information extracted from a process core file, if
50the core file is specified as the argument.
51.Pp
52By default, basic process statistics are printed; one of the following
53options may be specified in order to select more detailed process information
54for printing:
55.Bl -tag -width indent
56.It Fl -libxo
57Generate output via
58.Xr libxo 3
59in a selection of different human and machine readable formats.
60See
61.Xr xo_parse_args 3
62for details on command line arguments.
63.It Fl b
64Display binary information for the process.
65.It Fl c
66Display command line arguments for the process.
67.It Fl e
68Display environment variables for the process.
69.It Fl f
70Display file descriptor information for the process.
71.It Fl i
72Display signal pending and disposition information for the process.
73.It Fl j
74Display signal pending and blocked information for the process's threads.
75.It Fl k
76Display the stacks of kernel threads in the process, excluding stacks of
77threads currently running on a CPU and threads with stacks swapped to disk.
78If the flag is repeated, function offsets as well as function names are
79printed.
80.It Fl l
81Display resource limits for the process.
82.It Fl r
83Display resource usage information for the process.
84.It Fl s
85Display security credential information for the process.
86.It Fl S
87Display the cpuset information for the thread.
88.It Fl t
89Display thread information for the process.
90.It Fl v
91Display virtual memory mappings for the process.
92.It Fl x
93Display ELF auxiliary vector for the process.
94.El
95.Pp
96All options generate output in the format of a table, the first field of
97which is the process ID to which the row of information corresponds.
98The
99.Fl h
100flag may be used to suppress table headers.
101.Pp
102The
103.Fl w
104flag may be used to specify a wait interval at which to repeat the printing
105of the requested process information.
106If the
107.Fl w
108flag is not specified, the output will not repeat.
109.Pp
110The
111.Fl C
112flag requests the printing of additional capability information in the file
113descriptor view.
114.Pp
115The
116.Fl H
117flag may be used to request per-thread statistics rather than per-process
118statistics for some options.
119For those options, the second field in the table will list the thread ID
120to which the row of information corresponds.
121The
122.Fl H
123flag is implied for the
124.Fl S
125mode.
126.Pp
127Information for VM, file descriptor, and cpuset options is available
128only to the owner of a process or the superuser.
129A cpuset value displayed as -1 means that the information is either invalid
130or not available.

555The display of open file or memory mapping pathnames is implemented using the
556kernel's name cache.
557If a file system does not use the name cache, or the path to a file is not in
558the cache, a path will not be displayed.
