I'm trying to determine why something is crashing and I decided to use
strace to help get to the root of the problem but I find I'm having trouble
decoding the output. The following line seems to be where I want to start
investigating:
clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD.
child_tidptr=0xb7dbeb68) = 137
Here are my questions:
(1) is this the clone the one defined in user space? I've man'ed clone and
the man page lists a different first parameter so I'm somewhat skeptical
that I'm reading the correct man page.
(2) since I'm not sure which clone is being called, I not sure where I
should dig to decipher the 137 returned from the call. Where should I look?
regards,
ed.
