This is what POSIX 2003 says about ps:
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default, ps shall select all processes with the same effective user
|
||
|
ID as the current user and the same controlling terminal as the invoker
|
||
|
|
||
|
ps [-aA][-defl][-G grouplist][-o format]...[-p proclist][-t termlist]
|
||
|
[-U userlist][-g grouplist][-n namelist][-u userlist]
|
||
|
|
||
|
-a Write information for all processes associated with terminals.
|
||
|
Implementations may omit session leaders from this list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-A Write information for all processes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-d Write information for all processes, except session leaders.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-e Write information for all processes. (Equivalent to -A.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
-f Generate a full listing. (See the STDOUT section for the con-
|
||
|
tents of a full listing.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
-g grouplist
|
||
|
Write information for processes whose session leaders are given
|
||
|
in grouplist. The application shall ensure that the grouplist is
|
||
|
a single argument in the form of a <blank> or comma-separated
|
||
|
list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-G grouplist
|
||
|
Write information for processes whose real group ID numbers are
|
||
|
given in grouplist. The application shall ensure that the grou-
|
||
|
plist is a single argument in the form of a <blank> or comma-
|
||
|
separated list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-l Generate a long listing. (See STDOUT for the contents of a long
|
||
|
listing.)
|
||
|
|
||
|
-n namelist
|
||
|
Specify the name of an alternative system namelist file in place
|
||
|
of the default. The name of the default file and the format of a
|
||
|
namelist file are unspecified.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-o format
|
||
|
Write information according to the format specification given in
|
||
|
format. Multiple -o options can be specified; the format speci-
|
||
|
fication shall be interpreted as the <space>-separated concate-
|
||
|
nation of all the format option-arguments.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-p proclist
|
||
|
Write information for processes whose process ID numbers are
|
||
|
given in proclist. The application shall ensure that the pro-
|
||
|
clist is a single argument in the form of a <blank> or comma-
|
||
|
separated list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-t termlist
|
||
|
Write information for processes associated with terminals given
|
||
|
in termlist. The application shall ensure that the termlist is a
|
||
|
single argument in the form of a <blank> or comma-separated
|
||
|
list. Terminal identifiers shall be given in an implementation-
|
||
|
defined format. On XSI-conformant systems, they shall be
|
||
|
given in one of two forms: the device's filename (for example,
|
||
|
tty04) or, if the device's filename starts with tty, just the
|
||
|
identifier following the characters tty (for example, "04" ).
|
||
|
|
||
|
-u userlist
|
||
|
Write information for processes whose user ID numbers or login
|
||
|
names are given in userlist. The application shall ensure that
|
||
|
the userlist is a single argument in the form of a <blank> or
|
||
|
comma-separated list. In the listing, the numerical user ID
|
||
|
shall be written unless the -f option is used, in which case the
|
||
|
login name shall be written.
|
||
|
|
||
|
-U userlist
|
||
|
Write information for processes whose real user ID numbers or
|
||
|
login names are given in userlist. The application shall ensure
|
||
|
that the userlist is a single argument in the form of a <blank>
|
||
|
or comma-separated list.
|
||
|
|
||
|
With the exception of -o format, all of the options shown are used to
|
||
|
select processes. If any are specified, the default list shall be
|
||
|
ignored and ps shall select the processes represented by the inclusive
|
||
|
OR of all the selection-criteria options.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The -o option allows the output format to be specified under user con-
|
||
|
trol.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The application shall ensure that the format specification is a list of
|
||
|
names presented as a single argument, <blank> or comma-separated. Each
|
||
|
variable has a default header. The default header can be overridden by
|
||
|
appending an equals sign and the new text of the header. The rest of
|
||
|
the characters in the argument shall be used as the header text. The
|
||
|
fields specified shall be written in the order specified on the command
|
||
|
line, and should be arranged in columns in the output. The field widths
|
||
|
shall be selected by the system to be at least as wide as the header
|
||
|
text (default or overridden value). If the header text is null, such as
|
||
|
-o user=, the field width shall be at least as wide as the default
|
||
|
header text. If all header text fields are null, no header line shall
|
||
|
be written.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ruser The real user ID of the process. This shall be the textual user
|
||
|
ID, if it can be obtained and the field width permits, or a dec-
|
||
|
imal representation otherwise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
user The effective user ID of the process. This shall be the textual
|
||
|
user ID, if it can be obtained and the field width permits, or a
|
||
|
decimal representation otherwise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
rgroup The real group ID of the process. This shall be the textual
|
||
|
group ID, if it can be obtained and the field width permits, or
|
||
|
a decimal representation otherwise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
group The effective group ID of the process. This shall be the textual
|
||
|
group ID, if it can be obtained and the field width permits, or
|
||
|
a decimal representation otherwise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
pid The decimal value of the process ID.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ppid The decimal value of the parent process ID.
|
||
|
|
||
|
pgid The decimal value of the process group ID.
|
||
|
|
||
|
pcpu The ratio of CPU time used recently to CPU time available in the
|
||
|
same period, expressed as a percentage. The meaning of
|
||
|
"recently" in this context is unspecified. The CPU time avail-
|
||
|
able is determined in an unspecified manner.
|
||
|
|
||
|
vsz The size of the process in (virtual) memory in 1024 byte units
|
||
|
as a decimal integer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
nice The decimal value of the nice value of the process; see nice() .
|
||
|
|
||
|
etime In the POSIX locale, the elapsed time since the process was
|
||
|
started, in the form: [[dd-]hh:]mm:ss
|
||
|
|
||
|
time In the POSIX locale, the cumulative CPU time of the process in
|
||
|
the form: [dd-]hh:mm:ss
|
||
|
|
||
|
tty The name of the controlling terminal of the process (if any) in
|
||
|
the same format used by the who utility.
|
||
|
|
||
|
comm The name of the command being executed ( argv[0] value) as a
|
||
|
string.
|
||
|
|
||
|
args The command with all its arguments as a string. The implementa-
|
||
|
tion may truncate this value to the field width; it is implemen-
|
||
|
tation-defined whether any further truncation occurs. It is
|
||
|
unspecified whether the string represented is a version of the
|
||
|
argument list as it was passed to the command when it started,
|
||
|
or is a version of the arguments as they may have been modified
|
||
|
by the application. Applications cannot depend on being able to
|
||
|
modify their argument list and having that modification be
|
||
|
reflected in the output of ps.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Any field need not be meaningful in all implementations. In such a case
|
||
|
a hyphen ( '-' ) should be output in place of the field value.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only comm and args shall be allowed to contain <blank>s; all others
|
||
|
shall not.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following table specifies the default header to be used in the
|
||
|
POSIX locale corresponding to each format specifier.

There is no special quoting mechanism for header text. The header text
|
||
|
is the rest of the argument. If multiple header changes are needed,
|
||
|
multiple -o options can be used, such as:
|
||
|
|
||
|
ps -o "user=User Name" -o pid=Process\ ID
