2009-05-22See syscalls as syscalls and not sysrets when we are a cloneJuan Cespedes
2009-05-21Prepare for new Debian releaseJuan Cespedes
2009-05-21new fork() and clone() approachJuan Cespedes
used PTRACE_O_TRACE{FORK,VFORK,CLONE} to trace newly created processes instead of figuring it out whether a given syscall would create another process or not

2008-12-10Version 0.5.1Juan Cespedes
Trying to simplify distribution a bit
2007-08-31Some random fixesJuan Cespedes
* General: Small fixes (indentation, typos, clean-up of code) * ltrace.c: Close output file on exit * ltrace.c: use getenf("HOME") instead of getpwuid(geteuid())->pw_dir * read_config_file.c, display_args.c: remove "ignore" argtype; that's what "void" is for * packaging/debian/: misc fixes, sync with version 0.5-1 * etc/ltrace.conf: added more system calls * testsuite/ltrace.minor/trace-clone.c: sleep(1) to avoid earlier termination of process * sysdeps/linux-gnu/trace.c: trace_pid(): reverted Petr's patch to wait for child to stop, as it stopped following clone() * process_event.c: Disable breakpoints before doing fork() (again!), to make children work as expected
