Process id's are most definitely reused. For historical reasons, pid's are limited to 32768. When that is reached, they roll over. I'm on my 3rd or fourth cycle currently. I don't think there's any process termination notification within the kernel. I am attempting to track information within my nke on a per process basis (along with per socket). It is my assumption that process id's can be re-used. Does anyone have any information describing whether or not this is true. If it is true, is there anyway that I can be notified or find out when a process has gone away? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
