I do not know kFreeBSD at all well. I do know the /proc filesystem is called procfs. So, there should be some C include file (header file) that has the structure of all of the procfs files. These are used in all of the commands like ps, top, etc.

Try this:
Code:
find /usr/include -type f -name '*proc*'
