ltrace is an extremely useful tool!<div><br></div><div>I find that when I'm tracing a tree of child processes using the -f option, the following type of output (which is printed unconditionally) becomes distracting:</div>
<div><br></div><div><div>[pid 6494] --- Called exec() ---</div><div>[pid 6496] --- Called exec() ---</div><div>[pid 6496] +++ exited (status 0) +++</div><div>[pid 6495] --- SIGCHLD (Child exited) ---</div><div>[pid 6495] +++ exited (status 0) +++</div>
<div>[pid 6494] --- SIGCHLD (Child exited) ---</div><div>[pid 6494] --- Called exec() ---</div><div>[pid 6499] --- Called exec() ---</div><div>[pid 6500] +++ exited (status 0) +++</div><div>[pid 6499] +++ exited (status 0) +++</div>
</div><div>...</div><div><br></div><div>I'd like to propose that this ouput appear only when DEBUG_PROCESS is enabled. Does this seem reasonable? If so I'd be happy to code up a simple patch.</div><div><br></div>
