The Process Information Block (PIB) is a supplemental process related control block made accessible to ring 3 programs. It contains process status information obtained from the process' PTDA.

The PIB may be located from ptda_avatib (PTDA + 0x28) using the Dump Formatter or Kernel Debugger

A program gains access to the PIB along with the TIB by calling the DosGetInfoBlocks API.
