PS (l)
PS (l)
-g glist Restrict listing to data about processes whose process
groups are given in glist, where glist is a Jist of
process group leaders and is in the same format as
tlist.
The column headings and the meaning of the columns in a ps listing
are given below; the letters f and I indicate the option (full or �
long) that causes the corresponding heading to appear; all means
that the heading always appears. Note that these two options
only determine what information is provided for a process; they do
not determine which processes will be listed.
F (!} Flags (octal and additive) associated with the
process:
01 in core;
02 system process;
04 locked in core (e.g., for physical 1/0};
10 being swapped;
20 being traced by another process;
40 another tracing flag.
s (1} The state of the process:
0 non-existent;
s sleeping;
w waiting;
R running;
I intermediate;
z terminated;
T stopped;
X growing.
UID (f,l} The user ID number of the process owner; the
login name is printed under the -f option.
PID (all} The process ID of the process; it is possible to
kill a process if you know this datum.
PPID (f,l) The process ID of the parent process.
c (f,l} Processor utilization for scheduling.
STIME (f) Starting time of the process.
PRI (1} The priority of the process; higher numbers
mean lower priority.
NI (1) Nice value; used in priority computation.
ADDR (1) The memory address of the process (a pointer to
the segment table array on the 3B20S), if
resident; otherwise, the disk address.
sz (1) The size in blocks of the core image of the process.
