kernel threads would normally not appear as they are under process 2 not process 1. Sometimes they would because the collect orphans function would link them to the last userland process. The orphans function is fixed and there is a new -k option to show them. Signed-off-by: Craig Small <csmall@dropbear.xyz> |

psmisc
A package of small utilities that use the proc file-system.
- fuser - Identifies processes using files or sockets
- killall - kills processes by name, e.g. killall -HUP named
- prtstat - prints statistics of a process
- pslog - prints log path(s) of a process
- pstree - shows the currently running processes as a tree
- peekfd - shows the data travelling over a file descriptor
Getting latest source
There are two ways of getting the latest source.
GitLab
For the latest psmisc source, visit the GitLab psmisc page
SourceForge
There are also tarballs found on SourceForge. The reason these exist is the tarballs contain extra generated files. It's reasonably easy to generate those files anyhow.
Getting Help
There is no email list, but there is both an Issue Tracker and Merge Request Tracker.
I'm also trying out a Matrix room #psmisc so we will see how it goes.

Translations
My thanks for the various translators who have cheerfully given me the po files to make psmisc speak different languages. If your language is not supported then let me know, all it takes is translating one file in a certain manner. The current status of the translations can be found on the Translation Project website.
Icons
The pstree icons were drawn by Tatlin at Coresis who has given permission for them to be used for psmisc.
Copyright Change
The license has changed to GPL for version 20 onwards with permission of the original authors. People who want to use these programs under the previous license will have to look at psmisc 19 or below.
