#top SYNOPSIS

SYNOPSIS
ps [options]


#top DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION
ps displays information about a selection of the active processes. If you want a repetitive update of the selection and the displayed information, use top(1) instead.

This version of ps accepts several kinds of options:
1 UNIX options, which may be grouped and must be preceded by a dash.
2 BSD options, which may be grouped and must not be used with a dash.
3 GNU long options, which are preceded by two dashes.

Options of different types may be freely mixed, but conflicts can appear. There are some synonymous options, which are functionally identical, due to the many standards and ps implementations that this ps is compatible with.

Note that "ps -aux" is distinct from "ps aux". The POSIX and UNIX standards require that "ps -aux" print all processes owned by a user named "x", as well as printing all processes that would be selected by the -a option. If the user named "x" does not exist, this ps may interpret the command as "ps aux" instead and print a warning. This behavior is intended to aid in transitioning old scripts and habits. It is fragile, subject to change, and thus should not be relied upon.

By default, ps selects all processes with the same effective user ID (euid=EUID) as the current user and associated with the same terminal as the invoker. It displays the process ID (pid=PID), the terminal associated with the process (tname=TTY), the cumulated CPU time in [dd-]hh:mm:ss format (time=TIME), and the executable name (ucmd=CMD). Output is unsorted by default.

The use of BSD-style options will add process state (stat=STAT) to the default display and show the command args (args=COMMAND) instead of the executable name. You can override this with the PS_FORMAT environment variable. The use of BSD-style options will also change the process selection to include processes on other terminals (TTYs) that are owned by you; alternately, this may be described as setting the selection to be the set of all processes filtered to exclude processes owned by other users or not on a terminal. These effects are not considered when options are described as being "identical" below, so -M will be considered identical to Z and so on.

Except as described below, process selection options are additive. The default selection is discarded, and then the selected processes are added to the set of processes to be displayed. A process will thus be shown if it meets any of the given selection criteria.


#top OPTIONS

OPTIONS
-A
Select all processes. Identical to -e.

-N
Select all processes except those that fulfill the specified conditions. (negates the selection) Identical to --deselect.

T
Select all processes associated with this terminal. Identical to the t option without any argument.

-a
Select all processes except session leaders (see getsid(2)) and processes not associated with a terminal.

a
Lift the BSD-style "only yourself" restriction, which is imposed upon the set of all processes when some BSD-style (without "-") options are used or when the ps personality setting is BSD-like. The set of processes selected in this manner is in addition to the set of processes selected by other means. An alternate description is that this option causes ps to list all processes with a terminal (tty), or to list all processes when used together with the x option.

-d
Select all processes except session leaders.

-e
Select all processes. Identical to -A.

g
Really all, even session leaders. This flag is obsolete and may be discontinued in a future release. It is normally implied by the a flag, and is only useful when operating in the sunos4 personality.

r
Restrict the selection to only running processes.

x
Lift the BSD-style "must have a tty" restriction, which is imposed upon the set of all processes when some BSD-style (without "-") options are used or when the ps personality setting is BSD-like. The set of processes selected in this manner is in addition to the set of processes selected by other means. An alternate description is that this option causes ps to list all processes owned by you (same EUID as ps), or to list all processes when used together with the a option.

--deselect
Select all processes except those that fulfill the specified conditions. (negates the selection) Identical to -N.


#top PROCESS SELECTION BY LIST

PROCESS SELECTION BY LIST
These options accept a single argument in the form of a blank-separated or comma-separated list. They can be used multiple times. For example: ps -p "1 2" -p 3,4

-C cmdlist
Select by command name.
This selects the processes whose executable name is given in cmdlist.

-G grplist
Select by real group ID (RGID) or name.
This selects the processes whose real group name or ID is in the grplist list. The real group ID identifies the group of the user who created the process, see getgid(2).

U userlist
Select by effective user ID (EUID) or name.
This selects the processes whose effective user name or ID is in userlist. The effective user ID describes the user whose file access permissions are used by the process (see geteuid(2)). Identical to -u and --user.

-U userlist
select by real user ID (RUID) or name.
It selects the processes whose real user name or ID is in the userlist list. The real user ID identifies the user who created the process, see getuid(2).

-g grplist
Select by session OR by effective group name.
Selection by session is specified by many standards, but selection by effective group is the logical behavior that several other operating systems use. This ps will select by session when the list is completely numeric (as sessions are). Group ID numbers will work only when some group names are also specified. See the -s and --group options.

p pidlist
Select by process ID. Identical to -p and --pid.

-p pidlist
Select by PID.
This selects the processes whose process ID numbers appear in pidlist. Identical to p and --pid.

-s sesslist
Select by session ID.
This selects the processes with a session ID specified in sesslist.

t ttylist
Select by tty. Nearly identical to -t and --tty, but can also be used with an empty ttylist to indicate the terminal associated with ps. Using the T option is considered cleaner than using T with an empty ttylist.

-t ttylist
Select by tty.
This selects the processes associated with the terminals given in ttylist. Terminals (ttys, or screens for text output) can be specified in several forms: /dev/ttyS1, ttyS1, S1. A plain "-" may be used to select processes not attached to any terminal.

-u userlist
Select by effective user ID (EUID) or name.
This selects the processes whose effective user name or ID is in userlist. The effective user ID describes the user whose file access permissions are used by the process (see geteuid(2)). Identical to U and --user.

--Group grplist
Select by real group ID (RGID) or name. Identical to -G.

--User userlist
Select by real user ID (RUID) or name. Identical to -U.

--group grplist
Select by effective group ID (EGID) or name.
This selects the processes whose effective group name or ID is in grouplist. The effective group ID describes the group whose file access permissions are used by the process (see geteuid(2)). The -g option is often an alternative to --group.

--pid pidlist
Select by process ID. Identical to -p and p.

--ppid pidlist
Select by parent process ID. This selects the processes with a parent process ID in pidlist. That is, it selects processes that are children of those listed in pidlist.

--sid sesslist
Select by session ID. Identical to -s.

--tty ttylist
Select by terminal. Identical to -t and t.

--user userlist
Select by effective user ID (EUID) or name. Identical to -u and U.

-123
Identical to --sid 123.

123
Identical to --pid 123.


#top OUTPUT FORMAT CONTROL

OUTPUT FORMAT CONTROL
These options are used to choose the information displayed by ps. The output may differ by personality.

-F
extra full format. See the -f option, which -F implies.

-O format
is like -o, but preloaded with some default columns. Identical to -o pid,format,state,tname,time,command or -o pid,format,tname,time,cmd, see -o below.

O format
is preloaded o (overloaded).
The BSD O option can act like -O (user-defined output format with some common fields predefined) or can be used to specify sort order. Heuristics are used to determine the behavior of this option. To ensure that the desired behavior is obtained (sorting or formatting), specify the option in some other way (e.g. with -O or --sort). When used as a formatting option, it is identical to -O, with the BSD personality.

-M
Add a column of security data. Identical to Z. (for SE Linux)

X
Register format.

Z
Add a column of security data. Identical to -M. (for SE Linux)

-c
Show different scheduler information for the -l option.

-f
does full-format listing. This option can be combined with many other UNIX-style options to add additional columns. It also causes the command arguments to be printed. When used with -L, the NLWP (number of threads) and LWP (thread ID) columns will be added. See the c option, the format keyword args, and the format keyword comm.

j
BSD job control format.

-j
jobs format

l
display BSD long format.

-l
long format. The -y option is often useful with this.

o format
specify user-defined format. Identical to -o and --format.

-o format
user-defined format.
format is a single argument in the form of a blank-separated or comma-separated list, which offers a way to specify individual output columns. The recognized keywords are described in the STANDARD FORMAT SPECIFIERS section below. Headers may be renamed (ps -o pid,ruser=RealUser -o comm=Command) as desired. If all column headers are empty (ps -o pid= -o comm=) then the header line will not be output. Column width will increase as needed for wide headers; this may be used to widen up columns such as WCHAN (ps -o pid,wchan=WIDE-WCHAN-COLUMN -o comm). Explicit width control (ps opid,wchan:42,cmd) is offered too. The behavior of ps -o pid=X,comm=Y varies with personality; output may be one column named "X,comm=Y" or two columns named "X" and "Y". Use multiple -o options when in doubt. Use the PS_FORMAT environment variable to specify a default as desired; DefSysV and DefBSD are macros that may be used to choose the default UNIX or BSD columns.

s
display signal format

u
display user-oriented format

v
display virtual memory format

-y
Do not show flags; show rss in place of addr. This option can only be used with -l.

-y
Do not show flags; show rss in place of addr. This option can only be used with -l.

-Z
display security context format (SELinux, etc.)

--format format
user-defined format. Identical to -o and o.

--context
Display security context format. (for SE Linux)


#top OUTPUT MODIFIERS

OUTPUT MODIFIERS
-H
show process hierarchy (forest)

N namelist
Specify namelist file. Identical to -n, see -n above.

O order
Sorting order. (overloaded)
The BSD O option can act like -O (user-defined output format with some common fields predefined) or can be used to specify sort order. Heuristics are used to determine the behavior of this option. To ensure that the desired behavior is obtained (sorting or formatting), specify the option in some other way (e.g. with -O or --sort).

For sorting, obsolete BSD O option syntax is O[+|-]k1[,[+|-]k2[,...]]. It orders the processes listing according to the multilevel sort specified by the sequence of one-letter short keys k1, k2, ... described in the OBSOLETE SORT KEYS section below. The "+" is currently optional, merely re-iterating the default direction on a key, but may help to distinguish an O sort from an O format. The "-" reverses direction only on the key it precedes.

S
Sum up some information, such as CPU usage, from dead child processes into their parent. This is useful for examining a system where a parent process repeatedly forks off short-lived children to do work.

c
Show the true command name. This is derived from the name of the executable file, rather than from the argv value. Command arguments and any modifications to them (see setproctitle(3)) are thus not shown. This option effectively turns the args format keyword into the comm format keyword; it is useful with the -f format option and with the various BSD-style format options, which all normally display the command arguments. See the -f option, the format keyword args, and the format keyword comm.

e
Show the environment after the command.

f
ASCII-art process hierarchy (forest)

h
No header. (or, one header per screen in the BSD personality)
The h option is problematic. Standard BSD ps uses this option to print a header on each page of output, but older Linux ps uses this option to totally disable the header. This version of ps follows the Linux usage of not printing the header unless the BSD personality has been selected, in which case it prints a header on each page of output. Regardless of the current personality, you can use the long options --headers and --no-headers to enable printing headers each page or disable headers entirely, respectively.

k spec
specify sorting order. Sorting syntax is [+|-]key[,[+|-]key[,...]] Choose a multi-letter key from the STANDARD FORMAT SPECIFIERS section. The "+" is optional since default direction is increasing numerical or lexicographic order. Identical to --sort. Examples:
ps jaxkuid,-ppid,+pid
ps axk comm o comm,args
ps kstart_time -ef

-n namelist
set namelist file. Identical to N.
The namelist file is needed for a proper WCHAN display, and must match the current Linux kernel exactly for correct output. Without this option, the default search path for the namelist is:

$PS_SYSMAP
$PS_SYSTEM_MAP
/proc/*/wchan
/boot/System.map-`uname -r`
/boot/System.map
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/System.map
/usr/src/linux/System.map
/System.map

n
Numeric output for WCHAN and USER. (including all types of UID and GID)

-w
Wide output. Use this option twice for unlimited width.

w
Wide output. Use this option twice for unlimited width.

--sort spec
specify sorting order. Sorting syntax is [+|-]key[,[+|-]key[,...]] Choose a multi-letter key from the STANDARD FORMAT SPECIFIERS section. The "+" is optional since default direction is increasing numerical or lexicographic order. Identical to k. For example: ps jax --sort=uid,-ppid,+pid

--width n
set screen width


#top THREAD DISPLAY
