I don't know about looking up individual "threads" but if you don't have glance, you can run top and locate the process id <pid> of whatever is taking your cpu time:

(top output)
CPU TTY PID USERNAME PRI NI SIZE RES STATE TIME %WCPU %CPU COMMAND
2 ? 8076 www 152 20 117M 63900K run 0:07 0.55 0.55 httpd

ps -ef |grep <pid> - which should give you an output.

root 8076 1975 0 Jan 13 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/<process name>

You can then run ps -ef |grep <ppid> <--- parent process id

That should tell you all of the processes involved with the one item taking your cpu.

PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3)				     Linux Programmer's Manual					  PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3)

NAME
pthread_getcpuclockid - retrieve ID of a thread's CPU time clock SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h> #include <time.h> int pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_t thread, clockid_t *clock_id); Compile and link with -pthread. DESCRIPTION
The pthread_getcpuclockid() function returns the clock ID for the CPU time clock of the thread thread. RETURN VALUE
On success, this function returns 0; on error, it returns a nonzero error number. ERRORS
ENOENT Per-thread CPU time clocks are not supported by the system. ESRCH No thread with the ID thread could be found. VERSIONS
This function is available in glibc since version 2.2. CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001. NOTES
When thread refers to the calling thread, this function returns an identifier that refers to the same clock manipulated by clock_gettime(2) and clock_settime(2) when given the clock ID CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID. EXAMPLE
The program below creates a thread and then uses clock_gettime(2) to retrieve the total process CPU time, and the per-thread CPU time con- sumed by the two threads. The following shell session shows an example run: $ ./a.out Main thread sleeping Subthread starting infinite loop Main thread consuming some CPU time... Process total CPU time: 1.368 Main thread CPU time: 0.376 Subthread CPU time: 0.992 Program source /* Link with "-lrt" */ #include <time.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #define handle_error(msg) do { perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } while (0) #define handle_error_en(en, msg) do { errno = en; perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } while (0) static void * thread_start(void *arg) { printf("Subthread starting infinite loop "); for (;;) continue; } static void pclock(char *msg, clockid_t cid) { struct timespec ts; printf("%s", msg); if (clock_gettime(cid, &ts) == -1) handle_error("clock_gettime"); printf("%4ld.%03ld ", ts.tv_sec, ts.tv_nsec / 1000000); } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { pthread_t thread; clockid_t cid; int j, s; s = pthread_create(&thread, NULL, thread_start, NULL); if (s != 0) handle_error_en(s, "pthread_create"); printf("Main thread sleeping "); sleep(1); printf("Main thread consuming some CPU time... "); for (j = 0; j < 2000000; j++) getppid(); pclock("Process total CPU time: ", CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID); s = pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_self(), &cid); if (s != 0) handle_error_en(s, "pthread_getcpuclockid"); pclock("Main thread CPU time: ", cid); /* The preceding 4 lines of code could have been replaced by: pclock("Main thread CPU time: ", CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID); */ s = pthread_getcpuclockid(thread, &cid); if (s != 0) handle_error_en(s, "pthread_getcpuclockid"); pclock("Subthread CPU time: 1 ", cid); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); /* Terminates both threads */ } SEE ALSO
