No. 2.2.x is not useless, it is apparently _buggy_ in this regard. Some of
the fixes in the 2.3.x timeframe seem to not have made it into 2.2.x.

I think you're using a buggy 2.2.x kernel. 2.4.x should do this right.
Please give it a whirl.

The behaviour of CLONE_PTRACE in Linux 2.4.x is different from the
behaviour in 2.2.x. Linus is describing the 2.4.x. behaviour, where
the program that's doing the tracing will get the events instead of
the "real" parent. I believe the 2.2.x behaviour was pretty much
useless, and IIRC that was t

Actually it is not that simple. The child process will be traced by its
father, not the tracing program. The father mu

Hello all,
I have read on lwn.net that the patch that makes children run first after
a fork has been integrated in the latest pre-kernel.
I am a little bit concerned by that, as I have begun to write a program
that monitors process using ptrace. The difficulty is to ptrace-attach
