Detailed Description

Implementation of Processes

Function Documentation

◆ processCount()

uint32_t processCount ( )

Returns the number of total processes in the system.

Returns: Number of processes

Definition at line 245 of file process.c.

◆ processCreate()

struct process* processCreate ( struct process * original )

Creates a new kernel process object.

This function allocates and initializes the structure used to store a process. If original is NULL then the new process will have an empty minimal memory layout and empty handle table, otherwise all information will be duplicated from the original process. The process be initialized with a refcount of 1, but each thread inside of it increases the refcount. This allows processes to exist even if there is nothing externally pointing to them.

Parameters

original Pointer to the original process object or NULL

Returns: Pointer to the new kernel process object

Definition at line 77 of file process.c.

◆ processInfo()

uint32_t processInfo	(	struct processInfo *	info,
		uint32_t	count
	)

Fills out the processInfo structure with information about each individual process.

Parameters

info	Array where the output should be stored
count	Length of the buffer in sizes of processInfo

Returns: Number of process which have been stored
