This patch imports the unmodified current version of NetBSD libc. The NetBSD includes are in /nbsd_include, while the libc code itself is split between lib/nbsd_libc and common/lib/libc.

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In stdlib.h
|
|
.Ft void
|
|
.Fn setproctitle "const char *fmt" "..."
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn setproctitle
|
|
function sets the invoking process's title.
|
|
The process title is set to the last component of the program
|
|
name, followed by a colon and the formatted string specified
|
|
by
|
|
.Va fmt .
|
|
If
|
|
.Va fmt
|
|
is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the colon and formatted string are omitted.
|
|
The length of a process title is limited to 2048 bytes.
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
Set the process title to the program name, with no further information:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
setproctitle(NULL);
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Set the process title to the program name, an informational string,
|
|
and the process id:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
setproctitle("foo! (%d)", getpid());
|
|

|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn setproctitle
|
|
function first appeared in
|
|
.Nx 1.0 .
|
|
.Sh CAVEATS
|
|
It is important never to pass a string with user-supplied data as a
|
|
format without using
|
|
.Ql %s .
|
|
An attacker can put format specifiers in the string to mangle your stack,
|
|
leading to a possible security hole.
|
|
This holds true even if you have built the string
|
|
.Dq by hand
|
|
using a function like
|
|
.Fn snprintf ,
|
|
as the resulting string may still contain user-supplied conversion specifiers
|
|
for later interpolation by
|
|
.Fn setproctitle .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Always be sure to use the proper secure idiom:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
setproctitle("%s", string);
