The variable nextpid in fork1 (/sys/kern/kern_fork.c) is a local variable. Gcc rename internally nextpid to nextpid.178 ... So it is not possible to read the value of nextpid with kvm(3) or sysctl(3). Can we make nextpid to a global variable or is there any other way to read nextpid? It would be nice if top(1) can show the last pid. Wolfram
