SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/proc.h>

struct proc *
proc_find(pid_t pid);

struct pgrp *

extern kmutex_t *proc_lock;

DESCRIPTION

The proc_find() and pgrp_find() functions retrieve process and process group structures from process ID pid and process group ID pgid. Both functions must be called by holding a mutex(9) on proc_lock.

RETURN VALUES

Upon successful completion, the described functions return a pointer to either struct proc or struct pgrp. Otherwise, if the requested ID was not found, NULL is returned.
