[linuxsh-dev] New strace patches

[Stuart M. <Stu...@st...>]

Folks

Several months ago Greg did a great job adding SuperH support to strace
version 4.2. However that version didn't support some of the new 64 bit
file operations, and as a result trying to strace a program using those
system calls gives some rather odd output.

So what I have done is adapted Greg's patches for strace 4.4 (which
supports the new system calls). Attached is a copy of the new patches
against strace 4.4 from the SourceForge repository downloaded yesterday
(21st Aug 2001). This appears to fix the problems I've seen, but
if any of the new system calls require architecture dependant fixes
then they will almost certainly be missing. If you find anything like
this, please let me know.

Greg, I know you were going to submit your changes to the strace
maintainer, did you ever hear anything? Would you like me to try - keeping
your copyrights intact of course.
