As can be seen here we have PID available on send but not receive. How to limit the probes to connections owned/initiated by a particular process?

sudo dtrace -n 'tcp:::receive, tcp:::send { printf("PID = %d, arg1 == %x", pid, arg1); }'
dtrace: description 'tcp:::receive, tcp:::send ' matched 2 probes

On solaris the second argument args[1] would be a pointer to a csinfo_t containing all the information I need but on Mac OS it's always null. Solaris arguments are described on the following link https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E36784_01/html/E36846/glhmv.html

I'm using macOS 10.13.6
