From 5d9647a12094c953436b1f9af44f88e53db4af16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Valentin Rothberg Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2020 10:35:52 +0100 Subject: clarify ps(1) fallback of `podman top` Podman top falls back to executing ps(1) inside the container in the presence of ps-specific flags. Clarify that a bit more to help users resolve issues when, for instance, ps(1) isn't installed in the container.

The *format-descriptors* are ps (1) compatible AIX format descriptors but extended to print additional information, such as the seccomp mode or the effective capabilities of a given process.

The descriptors can either be passed as separated arguments or as a single comma-separated argument. Note that you can also specify options and or flags of ps(1); in this case, Podman will fallback to executing ps with the specified arguments and flags in the container. Please use the "h*" descriptors if you want to extract host-related information. For instance, `podman top $name hpid huser` to display the PID and user of the processes in the host context. ## OPTIONS -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
