Establishes this process as a new session and process group leader, with no controlling tty. Returns the session id. Not available on all platforms.
Process.setsid #=> 27422
Gets the scheduling priority for specified process, process group, or user. kind indicates the kind of entity to find: one of Process::PRIO_PGRP, Process::PRIO_USER, or Process::PRIO_PROCESS. integer is an id indicating the particular process, process group, or user (an id of 0 means current). Lower priorities are more favorable for scheduling. Not available on all platforms.
Process.getpriority(Process::PRIO_USER, 0) #=> 19 Process.getpriority(Process::PRIO_PROCESS, 0) #=> 19
Sets the resource limit of the process. cur_limit means current (soft) limit and max_limit means maximum (hard) limit.
If max_limit is not given, cur_limit is used.
resource indicates the kind of resource to limit. It should be a symbol such as :CORE, a string such as "CORE" or a constant such as Process::RLIMIT_CORE. The available resources are OS dependent. Ruby may support following resources.
total available memory (bytes) (SUSv3, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD but 4.4BSD-Lite)
core size (bytes) (SUSv3)
CPU time (seconds) (SUSv3)
data segment (bytes) (SUSv3)
file size (bytes) (SUSv3)
total size for mlock(2) (bytes) (4.4BSD, GNU/Linux)
allocation for POSIX message queues (bytes) (GNU/Linux)
ceiling on process’s nice(2) value (number) (GNU/Linux)
file descriptors (number) (SUSv3)
number of processes for the user (number) (4.4BSD, GNU/Linux)
RSS
resident memory size (bytes) (4.2BSD, GNU/Linux)
ceiling on the process’s real-time priority (number) (GNU/Linux)
CPU time for real-time process (us) (GNU/Linux)
all socket buffers (bytes) (NetBSD, FreeBSD)
number of queued signals allowed (signals) (GNU/Linux)
stack size (bytes) (SUSv3)
cur_limit and max_limit may be :INFINITY, "INFINITY" or Process::RLIM_INFINITY, which means that the resource is not limited. They may be Process::RLIM_SAVED_MAX, Process::RLIM_SAVED_CUR and corresponding symbols and strings too. See system setrlimit(2) manual for details.
The following example raises the soft limit of core size to the hard limit to try to make core dump possible.
Process.setrlimit(:CORE, Process.getrlimit(:CORE)[1])
Detach the process from controlling terminal and run in the background as system daemon. Unless the argument nochdir is true (i.e. non false), it changes the current working directory to the root (“/”). Unless the argument noclose is true, daemon() will redirect standard input, standard output and standard error to /dev/null. Return zero on success, or raise one of Errno::*.
Returns a Tms structure (see Process::Tms) that contains user and system CPU times for this process, and also for children processes.
t = Process.times [ t.utime, t.stime, t.cutime, t.cstime ] #=> [0.0, 0.02, 0.00, 0.00]
Returns the name of the script being executed. The value is not affected by assigning a new value to $0.
This method first appeared in Ruby 2.1 to serve as a global variable free means to get the script name.
Whether to expect full paths in default gems - true for non-MRI ruby implementations
Nonsymmetric reduction from Hessenberg to real Schur form.
Returns true and prepares http response, if rdoc for the requested gem name pattern was found.
The search is based on the file system content, not on the gems metadata. This allows additional documentation folders like ‘core’ for the Ruby core documentation - just put it underneath the main doc folder.
Return the best specification that contains the file matching path amongst the specs that are not activated.
