DESCRIPTION¶
This function can be used to determine if a given process p is visible to the thread td, where the notion of “visibility” may be read as “awareness of existence”. The function is implemented using cr_cansee(9), and the dependencies on sysctl(8) variables documented in the cr_cansee(9) manual page apply.RETURN VALUES¶

if
the process denoted by p is visible by thread
td, or a non-zero error return value otherwise.
ERRORS¶
- [
ESRCH
] - Process p is not visible to thread td as determined by cr_cansee(9).
- [
