Hi, I want to analyze firefox by tracing instruction footprints as I am working with that. Problem is that when I pass /usr/bin/firefox (or simply firefox) to the tracer, it stops logging as soon as the main window opens.
As I looked further, I have noticed that another process is launched and that is what I have to analyze. I also have noticed that /usr/bin/firefox isn't present in the output of ps command. # ps aux | grep firefox mahmood 8358 61.8 0.3 2679204 201348 pts/1 Sl+ 12:58 0:03 /usr/lib64/firefox/firefox mahmood 8494 20.0 0.1 2351288 69648 pts/1 Sl+ 12:58 0:00 /usr/lib64/firefox/plugin-container -greomni /usr/lib64/firefox/omni.ja -appomni /usr/lib64/firefox/browser/omni.ja -appdir /usr/lib64/firefox/browser 8358 tab root 8633 0.0 0.0 112664 972 pts/2 S+ 12:58 0:00 grep --color=auto firefox Ignoring the absence of /usr/bin/firefox, when I run /usr/lib64/firefox/plugin-container -greomni /usr/lib64/firefox/omni.ja -appomni /usr/lib64/firefox/browser/omni.ja -appdir /usr/lib64/firefox/browser 8358 tab in the terminal, I get shared library access error. Overall, firefox command is a wrapper and I am seeking for a way to access the main firefox. I also tried export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib64/firefox but wasn't successful. Any idea? _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
