Noteworthy changes in release 4.5.19
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
* Changes in behavior
|
|
* When command exits, strace now exits with the same exit status.
|
|
If command is terminated by a signal, strace terminates itself
|
|
with the same signal, so that strace can be used as a wrapper
|
|
process transparent to the invoking parent process.
|
|
When using -p option, the exit status of strace is zero unless
|
|
there was an unexpected error in doing the tracing.
|
