NAME

getpcaps - display process capabilities

SYNOPSIS

getpcaps [optional args] pid ...

DESCRIPTION

getpcaps displays the capabilities on the processes indicated by the pid value(s) given on the command line. A pid of 0 displays the capabilities of the process that is running getpcaps itself.

The capabilities are displayed in the cap_from_text (3) format.

Optional arguments:
--help or --usage

Displays usage information and exits.

--ugly or --legacy

Displays output in a somewhat ugly legacy format.

--verbose

Displays usage in a legacy-like format but not quite so ugly in modern default terminal fonts.

--iab

Displays IAB tuple capabilities from the process. The output format here is the text format described in cap_iab (3). Double quotes encase the regular process capabilities and square brackets encase the IAB tuple. This format is also used by captree (8).
