Hi,
The webrev has been updated to more completely describe the pid: "The native process id is an identification number that the operating system assigns to the process."
Any other comments?

I guess this is a little late, and minor, but the "jstack" tool uses the acronym "nid" for this purpose, which I believe is mapped to the same concept (on Linux it is anyway). I think either this terminology should be unified on the jstack side, or else the method should be called "getNativeId" or "getNid" or something. -- - DML
