<p class="Pp">This function takes a <var class="Fa">pid</var> as its argument,
    which can be either a process or thread id, and fills a pointer to the
    <var class="Vt">proc</var> structure in <var class="Fa">*pp</var>. In the
    latter case, a process owning the specified thread is looked for. The
    operation is performed by invoking the <a class="Xr">pfind(9)</a> function.
    The found process is returned locked. For the
    <code class="Dv">PGET_HOLD</code> case, it is returned unlocked (but held).
