rc_find_pids —
finds the pids of processes that match the given
criteria
Run Command library (librc, -lrc)
#include
<rc.h>
RC_PIDLIST *
rc_find_pids(const char *const
*argv, const char *cmd, uid_t
uid, pid_t pid);
rc_find_pids()
returns RC_PIDLIST, a structure based on the LIST macro from
queue(3) which contains all the pids found matching the
given criteria. If pid is given then only that pid is
returned if it is running. Otherwise we check all instances of
argv with a process name of cmd
owned by uid, all of which are optional.
The returned list should be freed when done.
On BSD systems we use Kernel Data Access Library (libkvm, -lkvm) and on Linux systems we use the /proc filesystem to find our processes.
Each RC_PID should be freed in the list as well as the list itself when done.
