/proc/pid/status - memory usage and status information
DESCRIPTION

that's easier for humans to parse. Here's an example:

The fields are as follows:
Name Command run by this process. Strings longer than TASK_COMM_LEN (16)
characters (including the terminating null byte) are silently truncated.
Umask Process umask, expressed in octal with a leading zero; see umask(2). (Since
Linux 4.7.)
State Current state of the process. One of "R (running)", "S (sleeping)", "D
(disk sleep)", "T (stopped)", "t (tracing stop)", "Z (zombie)", or "X
(dead)".
Tgid Thread group ID (i.e., Process ID).
Ngid NUMA group ID (0 if none; since Linux 3.13).
Pid Thread ID (see gettid(2)).
PPid PID of parent process.
TracerPid
PID of process tracing this process (0 if not being traced).
Uid
Gid Real, effective, saved set, and filesystem UIDs (GIDs).
FDSize Number of file descriptor slots currently allocated.
Groups Supplementary group list.
NStgid Thread group ID (i.e., PID) in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a
member. The leftmost entry shows the value with respect to the PID
namespace of the process that mounted this procfs (or the root namespace if
mounted by the kernel), followed by the value in successively nested inner
namespaces. (Since Linux 4.1.)
NSpid Thread ID in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member. The
fields are ordered as for NStgid. (Since Linux 4.1.)
NSpgid Process group ID in each of the PID namespaces of which pid is a member.
The fields are ordered as for NStgid. (Since Linux 4.1.)
NSsid descendant namespace session ID hierarchy Session ID in each of the PID
namespaces of which pid is a member. The fields are ordered as for NStgid.
(Since Linux 4.1.)
VmPeak Peak virtual memory size.
VmSize Virtual memory size.
VmLck Locked memory size (see mlock(2)).
VmPin Pinned memory size (since Linux 3.2). These are pages that can't be moved
because something needs to directly access physical memory.
VmHWM Peak resident set size ("high water mark"). This value is inaccurate; see
/proc/pid/statm above.
VmRSS Resident set size. Note that the value here is the sum of RssAnon, RssFile,
and RssShmem. This value is inaccurate; see /proc/pid/statm above.
RssAnon
Size of resident anonymous memory. (since Linux 4.5). This value is
inaccurate; see /proc/pid/statm above.
RssFile
Size of resident file mappings. (since Linux 4.5). This value is
inaccurate; see /proc/pid/statm above.
RssShmem
Size of resident shared memory (includes System V shared memory, mappings
from tmpfs(5), and shared anonymous mappings). (since Linux 4.5).
VmData
VmStk
VmExe Size of data, stack, and text segments. This value is inaccurate; see
/proc/pid/statm above.
VmLib Shared library code size.
VmPTE Page table entries size (since Linux 2.6.10).
VmPMD Size of second-level page tables (added in Linux 4.0; removed in Linux
4.15).
VmSwap Swapped-out virtual memory size by anonymous private pages; shmem swap usage
is not included (since Linux 2.6.34). This value is inaccurate; see
/proc/pid/statm above.
HugetlbPages
Size of hugetlb memory portions (since Linux 4.4).
CoreDumping
Contains the value 1 if the process is currently dumping core, and 0 if it
is not (since Linux 4.15). This information can be used by a monitoring
process to avoid killing a process that is currently dumping core, which
could result in a corrupted core dump file.
Threads
Number of threads in process containing this thread.
SigQ This field contains two slash-separated numbers that relate to queued
signals for the real user ID of this process. The first of these is the
number of currently queued signals for this real user ID, and the second is
the resource limit on the number of queued signals for this process (see the
description of RLIMIT_SIGPENDING in getrlimit(2)).
SigPnd
ShdPnd Mask (expressed in hexadecimal) of signals pending for thread and for
process as a whole (see pthreads(7) and signal(7)).
SigBlk
SigIgn
SigCgt Masks (expressed in hexadecimal) indicating signals being blocked, ignored,
and caught (see signal(7)).
CapInh
CapPrm
CapEff Masks (expressed in hexadecimal) of capabilities enabled in inheritable,
permitted, and effective sets (see capabilities(7)).
CapBnd Capability bounding set, expressed in hexadecimal (since Linux 2.6.26, see
capabilities(7)).
CapAmb Ambient capability set, expressed in hexadecimal (since Linux 4.3, see
capabilities(7)).
NoNewPrivs
Value of the no_new_privs bit (since Linux 4.10, see prctl(2)).
Seccomp
Seccomp mode of the process (since Linux 3.8, see seccomp(2)). 0 means
SECCOMP_MODE_DISABLED; 1 means SECCOMP_MODE_STRICT; 2 means
SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER. This field is provided only if the kernel was built
with the CONFIG_SECCOMP kernel configuration option enabled.
Seccomp_filters
Number of seccomp filters attached to the process (since Linux 5.9, see
seccomp(2)).
Speculation_Store_Bypass
Speculation flaw mitigation state (since Linux 4.17, see prctl(2)).
Cpus_allowed
Hexadecimal mask of CPUs on which this process may run (since Linux 2.6.24,
see cpuset(7)).
Cpus_allowed_list
Same as previous, but in "list format" (since Linux 2.6.26, see cpuset(7)).
Mems_allowed
Mask of memory nodes allowed to this process (since Linux 2.6.24, see
cpuset(7)).
Mems_allowed_list
Same as previous, but in "list format" (since Linux 2.6.26, see cpuset(7)).
voluntary_ctxt_switches
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches
Number of voluntary and involuntary context switches (since Linux 2.6.23).
