NAME

       /proc/pid/cwd - symbolic link to current working directory

DESCRIPTION

       /proc/pid/cwd
              This  is a symbolic link to the current working directory of the process.  To find out the current
              working directory of process 20, for instance, you can do this:

                  $ cd /proc/20/cwd; pwd -P

              In a multithreaded process, the contents of this symbolic link  are  not  available  if  the  main
              thread has already terminated (typically by calling pthread_exit(3)).

              Permission  to dereference or read (readlink(2)) this symbolic link is governed by a ptrace access
              mode PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS check; see ptrace(2).
