Description

Is there a way to get `pgid`(`pgrp`) and `cmdline`(not `comm`) from bpf code?

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is identified. Start by examining how BCC exposes BPF helpers and process metadata, focusing on pgid/pgrp and cmdline rather than comm. Done would require a clearly supported way to obtain both values, or a clarified implementation request.
