I need help with PID.

[Yet-another-NPC-guy]

I'm facing problems to identify sub processes PIDs.

su -c 'pidof (package name)/.(full sub processes name)'

always return a different PID on every execution but:

su -c 'pidof (package name)'

only returns one specific pid that I can comprobe it's the correct pid.

It's strange because new PID means sub processes restarts but I'm getting different PIDs and I can see how the specific sub processes still on execution.
