CURPROC(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual CURPROC(9)NAME
curproc, curcpu, curlwp -- current process, processor, and LWP
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/proc.h>
struct cpu_info *
curcpu(void);
struct proc *
curproc(void);
struct lwp *
curlwp(void);
DESCRIPTION
The following macros can be used to retrieve the current processor, process, and light-weight process (LWP), respectively:
1. The machine-dependent curcpu() macro returns a pointer to a cpu_info structure containing information of the CPU that this thread
is running on.
2. The machine-independent curproc() macro refers to a pointer to the process currently running on this CPU.
3. The curlwp() macro expands to a pointer to lwp structure, containing information about the current LWP. This macro is machine-
independent, but machine-dependent <machine/cpu.h> may redefine it.

_LWP_UNPARK(2) BSD System Calls Manual _LWP_UNPARK(2)NAME
_lwp_unpark -- resume execution of a waiting LWP
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <lwp.h>
int
_lwp_unpark(lwpid_t lwp, const void *hint);
DESCRIPTION
_lwp_unpark() resumes execution of the light-weight process lwp.
The target LWP is assumed to be waiting in the kernel as a result of a call to _lwp_park(). If the target LWP is not currently waiting, it
will return immediately upon the next call to _lwp_park().
See _lwp_park(2) for a description of the hint argument.
RETURN VALUES
A 0 value indicates that the call succeeded. A -1 return value indicates an error occurred and errno is set to indicate the reason.
ERRORS
[ESRCH] No LWP can be found in the current process corresponding to that specified by lwp.
SEE ALSO _lwp_park(2), _lwp_unpark_all(2), _lwp_wakeup(2)HISTORY
The _lwp_unpark() system call first appeared in NetBSD 5.0.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:
$ ls -ld /usr/bin /usr/bin/cat
drwxrwxr-x 3 root bin 8704 Sep 23 2004 /usr/bin

sort -nr --key=1 ....
The output I get is:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
The prompt is... (2 Replies)
Hey gang, I have a list of times I need to sum up. This list can vary from a few to a few thousand entries.

Usually when I on the evening go to bed I take some interesting book with me. I read it for a while to get me down to sleep. Probably most people seek information from the Nett by googleing but I am so oldfashioned I prefer a real book ;)
