Get the current status of the current thread in the process associated with the file descriptor.
#include <sys/procfs.h> #define DCMD_PROC_STATUS32 (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 7, procfs_status32)) #define DCMD_PROC_STATUS64 (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 7, procfs_status64)) #define DCMD_PROC_STATUS (__DIOF(_DCMD_PROC, __PROC_SUBCMD_PROCFS + 7, procfs_status))
The arguments to devctl() are:
Argument | Value |
---|---|
filedes | A file descriptor for the process. |
dcmd | DCMD_PROC_STATUS |
dev_data_ptr | A pointer to a procfs_status structure |
n_bytes | sizeof(procfs_status) |
dev_info_ptr | NULL |
The argument is a pointer to a procfs_status structure (see debug_thread_t in <sys/debug.h>) that's filled in with the required information on return. For example:
procfs_status my_status; devctl( fd, DCMD_PROC_STATUS, &my_status, sizeof(my_status), NULL);
For more information about the contents of this structure, see Thread information, earlier in this chapter.
