I want to find the name of the current process. I've been tracing through the way that the procfs does it, but now I'm kind of lost. I want to find the name used on the command line, not necessarily that of the executable. I looked at proc_pid_cmdline, and it does a lot of task locking and accessing of the vm. Since the module I'm working on has the current process blocked, is all of the locking necessary? Basically, my questions are: Do I need to lock the task and inc the mm_users? Where exactly is the cmdline name found? How do I access it? What will the memory look like there ( nul terminiators, etc. )? Thanks for any help anyone can provide. -- John Tyner jtyner@cs.ucr.edu - Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
