+ arch_status f Task architecture specific information
+ attr d API for security modules
+ autogroup f Kernel scheduler "task group"
+ auxv f ELF interpreter information passed to the process at exec time
+ cgroup f Kernel scheduler group
+ clear_refs f Clears page referenced bits shown in smaps output
+ cmdline f Command line arguments
+ comm f The command name associated with the process
+ coredump_filter f What memory segments are written to the core dump file
+ cpu_resctrl_groups f Navigate from tasks to resctrl groups.
+ cwd f Link to the current working directory
+ environ f Values of environment variables
+ exe f Link to the executable of this process
+ fd d Directory, which contains all file descriptors
+ fdinfo d Open files for the pid, named by its file descriptor
+ gid_map f User namespaces
+ io f This file contains I/O statistics for the process
+ limits f Displays the soft limit, hard limit, and units of measurement for
+ each of the process's resource limits
+ loginuid f audit login UID
+ map_files d This subdirectory contains entries corresponding to memory-mapped files
+ maps f File containing the currently mapped memory regions and their access permissions
+ mem f This file can be used to access the pages of a process's memory
+ through open(2), read(2), and lseek(2)
+ mountinfo f Contains information about mount points in the process's mount namespace
+ mounts f Lists all the filesystems currently mounted in the process's mount namespace
+ mountstats f Exports information (statistics, configuration information) on all mounted fs
+ net d This directory provides a comprehensive look at various networking
+ parameters and statistics.
+ ns d This directory containing one entry for each namespace that supports being
+ manipulated by setns(2)
+ numa_maps f Displays information about a process's NUMA memory policy and allocation
+ oom_adj f This file can be used to adjust the score used to select which process
+ should be killed in an out-of-memory (OOM) situation
+ oom_score f Displays the current score for out-of-memory (OOM) suituation
+ oom_score_adj f This file can be used to adjust the badness heuristic
+ pagemap f Shows the mapping of each of the process's virtual pages
+ into physical page frames or swap area
+ patch_state f Livepatch patch operation state (depends on CONFIG_LIVEPATCH)

+ smaps_rollup f Provides pre-summed memory information for a process.
+ The format is almost identical to /proc/pid/smaps.
+ The fields Pss_Anon, Pss_File and Pss_Shmem are not present in
+ /proc/[pid]/smaps
+ stack f Provides a symbolic trace of the function calls in this process's kernel stack.

+ system call currently being executed
+ task d Contains one subdirectory for each thread in the process
+ timens_offsets f Associated with each time namespace are offsets
+ timers f List of the POSIX timers for this process
+ timerslack_ns f Exposes the process's "current" timer slack value, expressed in nanoseconds
+ uid_map f See user_namespaces(7) for more information
+ wchan f Symbolic name corresponding to the location in the kernel where
+ the process is sleeping
