SYSCTL (7) NetBSD Miscellaneous Information Manual SYSCTL (7)
kern.proc (KERN_PROC)
Return the entire process table, or a subset of it. An array of struct kinfo_proc structures is
returned, whose size depends on the current number of such objects in the system. The third and
fourth level numeric names are as follows:
Third level name
KERN PROC ALL
KERN PROC GID
KERN PROC PID
KERN PROC PGRP
KERN PROC RGID
KERN PROC RUID
KERN PROC SESSION
KERN PROC TTY
KERN PROC UID
Fourth level is:
None
A group ID
A process ID
A process group
A real group ID
A real user ID
A session ID
A tty device
A user ID
kern.proc2 (KERN_PROC2)
As for KERN_PROC, but an array of struct kinfo_proc2 structures are returned. The fifth level
name is the size of the struct kinfo_proc2 and the sixth level name is the number of structures to
return.
kern.proc_args (KERN_PROC_ARGS)
Return the argv or environment strings (or the number thereof) of a process. Multiple strings are
returned separated by NUL characters. The third level name is the process ID. The fourth level
name is as follows:
KERN PROC ARGV
KERN PROC ENV
KERN PROC NARGV
KERN PROC NENV
The argv strings
The environ strings
The number of argv strings
The number of environ strings
kern.profiling (KERN_PROF)
Return profiling information about the kernel. If the kernel is not compiled for profiling, attempts
to retrieve any of the KERN_PROF values will fail with EOPNOTSUPP. The third level names for
the string and integer profiling information is detailed below. The changeable column shows
whether a process with appropriate privilege may change the value.
Third level name Type Changeable
kern.profiling.count u_short[ ] yes
kern.profiling.froms u_short[ ] yes
kern.profiling.gmonparam struct gmonparam no
kern.profiling.state integer yes
kern.profiling.tos struct tostruct yes
The variables are as follows:
kern.profiling.count (GPROF_COUNT)
Array of statistical program counter counts.
kern.profiling.froms (GPROF_FROMS)
Array indexed byprogram counter of call-from points.
kern.profiling.gmonparams (GPROF_GMONPARAM)
Structure giving the sizes of the above arrays.
