💖 FUNCTION::STP_PID 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SystemTap Tapset Reference — specifically the Context Functions corner of it, which is where all the "who am I, where am I, what's going on" energy lives ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

---

stp_pid:long()

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this function hands you back the process id of the stapio process that launched this script 🔥 that's it. that's the whole vibe. one number, and it's the pid of the thing that started your script.

heads up though — there could be other SystemTap scripts and stapio processes running on the system 👀 so don't go assuming yours is the only one in the group chat. it's giving "many main characters." the function still returns your launcher's pid, but the system at large is a whole crowd, iykyk.
