Root Directory of a Process

[Jishan Alam]

Hello, I wanted to know how to get the root dir of a process using
sysctl or other libs, sysctl leads me to kinfo_proc where ki_pd
contains pwddesc-> pd_pwd which only works in kernel? if not how to
get it safely is there any way.
Context: Im porting an app from Linux where the app reads from
/proc/<pid>/root using readlink but since freebsd doesnt have it, how
to emulated if it can be emulated.
Thank You.

i think libprocstat(3) would be the way to go here. i use procstat(1)
for shell scripting to get surface info similar to linux's procfs, so
that might have what you are looking for.
