Can I show the PID of a process that I just launched, ideally at the end of the line of the command?
Example:
root in ~: mysqld .................. [PID 34567]
12121 mysql-logs start to come in...
12125 more logs...
For example, when I launch two mysqld
processes and the second one does not "work" (port, etc..), I cannot figure out which daemon has which PID.
Concrete example:
mysqld >/dev/null 130 ↵

I can neither ^+C, ^+D nor ^+Z the process and the only way to find out what process this is is via top (as mentioned already). Due to the fact that I can't even put the process in the background, I have no direct way of getting the PID. mysqld && echo $! shows that $! is 0.
I would like to have the PID displayed as soon as the process is launched and then the actual output starts.
