/proc/pid/status - memory usage and status information

DESCRIPTION

/proc/ pid /status

The fields are as follows:

	Name		Command run by this process. Strings longer than TASK_COMM_LEN (16) characters (including the terminating null byte) are silently truncated.
	Umask		Process umask, expressed in octal with a leading zero; see umask (2). (Since Linux 4.7.)
	State		Current state of the process. One of "R (running)", "S (sleeping)", "D (disk sleep)", "T (stopped)", "t (tracing stop)", "Z (zombie)", or "X (dead)".
	Tgid		Thread group ID (i.e., Process ID).
	Ngid		NUMA group ID (0 if none; since Linux 3.13).
	Pid		Thread ID (see gettid (2)).
	PPid		PID of parent process.

TracerPid

PID of process tracing this process (0 if not being traced).

	Uid
	Gid		Real, effective, saved set, and filesystem UIDs (GIDs).
	FDSize		Number of file descriptor slots currently allocated.
	Groups		Supplementary group list.
	NStgid		Thread group ID (i.e., PID) in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member. The leftmost entry shows the value with respect to the PID namespace of the process that mounted this procfs (or the root namespace if mounted by the kernel), followed by the value in successively nested inner namespaces. (Since Linux 4.1.)
	NSpid		Thread ID in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member. The fields are ordered as for NStgid . (Since Linux 4.1.)
	NSpgid		Process group ID in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member. The fields are ordered as for NStgid . (Since Linux 4.1.)
	NSsid		descendant namespace session ID hierarchy Session ID in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member. The fields are ordered as for NStgid . (Since Linux 4.1.)
	VmPeak		Peak virtual memory size.
	VmSize		Virtual memory size.
	VmLck		Locked memory size (see mlock (2)).
	VmPin		Pinned memory size (since Linux 3.2). These are pages that can’t be moved because something needs to directly access physical memory.
	VmHWM		Peak resident set size ("high water mark"). This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.
	VmRSS		Resident set size. Note that the value here is the sum of RssAnon , RssFile , and RssShmem . This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.

RssAnon

Size of resident anonymous memory. (since Linux 4.5). This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.

RssFile

Size of resident file mappings. (since Linux 4.5). This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.

RssShmem

Size of resident shared memory (includes System V shared memory, mappings from tmpfs (5), and shared anonymous mappings). (since Linux 4.5).

	VmData
	VmStk
	VmExe		Size of data, stack, and text segments. This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.
	VmLib		Shared library code size.
	VmPTE		Page table entries size (since Linux 2.6.10).
	VmPMD		Size of second-level page tables (added in Linux 4.0; removed in Linux 4.15).
	VmSwap		Swapped-out virtual memory size by anonymous private pages; shmem swap usage is not included (since Linux 2.6.34). This value is inaccurate; see /proc/ pid /statm above.

HugetlbPages

Size of hugetlb memory portions (since Linux 4.4).

CoreDumping

Contains the value 1 if the process is currently dumping core, and 0 if it is not (since Linux 4.15). This information can be used by a monitoring process to avoid killing a process that is currently dumping core, which could result in a corrupted core dump file.

Threads

Number of threads in process containing this thread.

	SigQ		This field contains two slash-separated numbers that relate to queued signals for the real user ID of this process. The first of these is the number of currently queued signals for this real user ID, and the second is the resource limit on the number of queued signals for this process (see the description of RLIMIT_SIGPENDING in getrlimit (2)).
	SigPnd
	ShdPnd		Mask (expressed in hexadecimal) of signals pending for thread and for process as a whole (see pthreads (7) and signal (7)).
	SigBlk
	SigIgn
	SigCgt		Masks (expressed in hexadecimal) indicating signals being blocked, ignored, and caught (see signal (7)).
	CapInh
	CapPrm
	CapEff		Masks (expressed in hexadecimal) of capabilities enabled in inheritable, permitted, and effective sets (see capabilities (7)).
	CapBnd		Capability bounding set, expressed in hexadecimal (since Linux 2.6.26, see capabilities (7)).
	CapAmb		Ambient capability set, expressed in hexadecimal (since Linux 4.3, see capabilities (7)).

NoNewPrivs

Value of the no_new_privs bit (since Linux 4.10, see prctl (2)).

Seccomp

Seccomp mode of the process (since Linux 3.8, see seccomp (2)). 0 means SECCOMP_MODE_DISABLED ; 1 means SECCOMP_MODE_STRICT ; 2 means SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER . This field is provided only if the kernel was built with the CONFIG_SECCOMP kernel configuration option enabled.

Seccomp_filters

Number of seccomp filters attached to the process (since Linux 5.9, see seccomp (2)).

Speculation_Store_Bypass

Speculation flaw mitigation state (since Linux 4.17, see prctl (2)).

Cpus_allowed

Hexadecimal mask of CPUs on which this process may run (since Linux 2.6.24, see cpuset (7)).

Cpus_allowed_list

Same as previous, but in "list format" (since Linux 2.6.26, see cpuset (7)).

Mems_allowed

Mask of memory nodes allowed to this process (since Linux 2.6.24, see cpuset (7)).

Mems_allowed_list

Same as previous, but in "list format" (since Linux 2.6.26, see cpuset (7)).

voluntary_ctxt_switches
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches

Number of voluntary and involuntary context switches (since Linux 2.6.23).
