## NAME
|
|
podman\-top - Display the running processes of a container
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**podman top** [*options*] *container* [*format-descriptors*]
|
|
|
|
**podman container top** [*options*] *container* [*format-descriptors*]
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
Display the running processes of 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 options and or flags of ps(1) can also be specified; in this case, Podman falls back to
|
|
executing ps(1) from the host with the specified arguments and flags in the container namespace. If the container
|
|
has the `CAP_SYS_PTRACE` capability then we will execute ps(1) in the container so it must be installed there.
|
|
To extract host-related information, use the "h*" descriptors. For instance, `podman top $name hpid huser`
|
|
to display the PID and user of the processes in the host context.

## FORMAT DESCRIPTORS
|
|
|
|
The following descriptors are supported in addition to the AIX format descriptors mentioned in ps (1):
|
|
|
|
**args, capbnd, capeff, capinh, capprm, comm, etime, group, hgroup, hpid, huser, label, nice, pcpu, pgid, pid, ppid, rgroup, ruser, seccomp, state, time, tty, user, vsz**
|
|
|
|
**capbnd**
|
|
|
|
Set of bounding capabilities. See capabilities (7) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**capeff**
|
|
|
|
Set of effective capabilities. See capabilities (7) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**capinh**
|
|
|
|
Set of inheritable capabilities. See capabilities (7) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**capprm**
|
|
|
|
Set of permitted capabilities. See capabilities (7) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**hgroup**
|
|
|
|
The corresponding effective group of a container process on the host.
|
|
|
|
**hpid**
|
|
|
|
The corresponding host PID of a container process.
|
|
|
|
**huser**
|
|
|
|
The corresponding effective user of a container process on the host.
|
|
|
|
**label**
|
|
|
|
Current security attributes of the process.
|
|
|
|
**seccomp**
|
|
|
|
Seccomp mode of the process (i.e., disabled, strict or filter). See seccomp (2) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**state**
|
|
|
|
Process state codes (e.g, **R** for *running*, **S** for *sleeping*). See proc(5) for more information.
|
|
|
|
**stime**
|
|
|
|
Process start time (e.g, "2019-12-09 10:50:36 +0100 CET).
|
|
|
|
## EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
By default, `podman-top` prints data similar to `ps -ef`.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman top f5a62a71b07
|
|
USER PID PPID %CPU ELAPSED TTY TIME COMMAND
|
|
root 1 0 0.000 20.386825206s pts/0 0s sh
|
|
root 7 1 0.000 16.386882887s pts/0 0s sleep
|
|
root 8 1 0.000 11.386886562s pts/0 0s vi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The output can be controlled by specifying format descriptors as arguments after the container.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman top -l pid seccomp args %C
|
|
PID SECCOMP COMMAND %CPU
|
|
1 filter sh 0.000
|
|
8 filter vi /etc/ 0.000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Podman falls back to executing ps(1) from the host in the container namespace if an unknown descriptor is specified.
|
|
```
|
|
$ podman top -l -- aux
|
|
USER PID PPID %CPU ELAPSED TTY TIME COMMAND
|
|
root 1 0 0.000 1h2m12.497061672s ? 0s sleep 100000
|
|
```
