https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229266 Bug ID: 229266 Summary: some system utilities take JID only, not jail name Product: Base System Version: 10.4-RELEASE Hardware: Any URL: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jail/2018- June/003588.html OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: 000.fbsd@quip.cz FreeBSD has many jail aware utilities but they are inconsistent in taking JID as parameter. For example "sockstat" takes -j JID "Show only sockets belonging to the specified jail ID" and it means numeric ID only. On the other hand "ps" takes -J JID "This may be either the jid or name of the jail. Use -J 0 to display only host processes." The same apply for "top", it understands jid as a number or name of the jail too. Then again "cpuset" takes only numerical ID of the jail... This should be consistent across all FreeBSD base utilities so all of them can use numerical ID and name. I took a quick look in to sources and almost each util has very different code to work with JID / jail name. I am not C developer so I cannot provide any patches. I hope somebody else will have free time to fix these utilities. Note I found this commit to fix jid / jail name problem for pgrep/pkill but again, it is very different code to what I found for procstat or sockstat https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=287012 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
