There is important information about booting non-ack images in docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the new boot monitor is recommended. Changes in this commit: . drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support . facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING . no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries . some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases . drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet). . a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir . new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/ . test compile fix . harmonize includes . /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even less on the state of the machine making them now. . rename nbsd_lib* to lib* . reduce mtree

|
.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);
