From bfdb68413912ece046417c828111b7673b824fbb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Watson Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 16:04:42 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] A number of bugs appear to exist in truss that are hampering debugging problems for the release. Add fixing them to the RC1 todo list, no owner. These include a race condition in the attaching of truss to procfs, and a bug wherein running truss on binary not present results in a hang in truss (it appears to spin). --- en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml | 14 +++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml index 3c58db4225..3e7e4038a3 100644 --- a/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml +++ b/en/releases/5.0R/todo.sgml @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ - + %includes; ]> @@ -35,6 +35,18 @@ reviewed and fixed. + + Race conditions in truss + -- + -- + Truss appears to contain a race condition during the start-up of + debugging, which can result in truss failing to attach to the process + before it exits.
