HEADS UP: procstat(1) MFC to RELENG_7 in progress

[Robert Watson]

FYI: I've begun the MFC of procstat(1) from HEAD to RELENG_7.  This requires 
merging a number of kernel changes, and then the command line tool, so it will 
occur over the next day or so.  I'll send out a further e-mail when the merge 
is done.

Dear all, (and FYI to hackers@ where I previousl sought feedback):

I've now committed procstat(1) to CVS.  I've found it to be quite a helpful 
debugging tool, am particularly pleased with -k/-kk, and would welcome feedback 
and ideas on further improving it.

   Added files:
     usr.bin/procstat     Makefile procstat.1 procstat.c procstat.h
                          procstat_args.c procstat_basic.c
                          procstat_bin.c procstat_cred.c
                          procstat_files.c procstat_kstack.c
                          procstat_threads.c procstat_vm.c
   Log:
   Add procstat(1), a process inspection utility.  This provides both some
   of the missing functionality from procfs(4) and new functionality for
   monitoring and debugging specific processes.  procstat(1) operates in
   the following modes:

     -b  Display binary information for the process.
     -c  Display command line arguments for the process.
     -f  Display file descriptor information for the process.
     -k  Display the stacks of kernel threads in the process.
     -s  Display security credential information for the process.
     -t  Display thread information for the process.
     -v  Display virtual memory mappings for the process.

   Further revision and modes are expected.
