The only part I haven't figured out is for ports open by the kernel.
Where can I get the type of information that fuser will return for user
processes for these modules? Take kernel-based NFS as an example... it
seems to show up with its own PID, and I can make a fairly educated
guess that 800/udp maps to it, but that's not exactly definitive.
Checking the /proc/<pid> information for that process yields
virtually nil. Is there are reason for this? What would it take to
have the file descriptors in use by kernel modules be reflected in their
/proc entry just as they would be for a userspace process, in which case
fuser would probably pick these processes up right along with the
others?
Thanks,
