Hi Tzvetomir, For some reason, this patch series ended up as part of the: Separate trace-cmd and libtracecmd code series. -- Steve > > [ > v5 changes: > - Added new patch: > "Extend ptrace logic to work with multiple filtered pids" > It resolves "filter_pid" leftover in ptrace related logic. > - "--proc-map" does not depend on option -F, it works with any command, > specified as trace-cmd argument or option -P. > - Renamed "mmap" to "proc-map" - the option name and the names of > the functions, variables and defines related to this feature. > v4 changes: > - Added check for strdup() failure. > - Made input user string argument of change_user() and run_cmd() > constant. > - Added description of the new "--mmap" trace-cmd option in the > program's help and the man page.
