readproctab, freeproctab - read information for all current processes at once

#include <proc/readproc.h>

proc_t* readproctab(int flags, … );*
void freeproctab(proc_t ***/p/);*

readproctab reads information on all processes matching the criteria from flags, allocating memory for everything as needed. It returns a NULL-terminated list of proc_t pointers. For more information on the arguments of readproctab, see *openproc*(3).

freeproctab frees all memory allocated by readproctab.

The proc_t structure is defined in <proc/readproc.h>, please look there for a definition of all fields.
