We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Ubuntu 14.04 (trusty) reached end-of-standard-support on April 25, 2019.
Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported when
using a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you
do otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days
time.
Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
"sudo strace -p $(pgrep X)" hangs system after a few seconds
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I've tried "sudo strace -p $(pgrep X)" in a KDE konsole to see what
Xorg was doing that may cause high cpu load.
After a few seconds and lot of output, the system hung and I could not switch
to another VT, but music kept playing in the background.
Doing the REISUB sequence, the system restartet after Alt-SysRq-R or -E
already.
This was reproducible (I've tried it twice), the restart however appeared
only once: it required a hard reset the other time.
This is probably related to the generated output, since it did not
happen on VT1 after reboot, where I've used "-o outputfile" though.
Using "sudo strace -p $(pgrep X) -o /tmp/1" and "tail -f /tmp/1" also
does not cause the hangup.
