Hi,
Second request. I had a bunch of filename.pid outputs from -ff the
other day and to better understand what occurred, I examined and renamed
them to show their ancestry.
1000.man
1008.man-preconv
1009.man-tbl
1010.man-nroff
1011.man-col
1013.man-nroff-locale
1016.man-nroff-groff
1018.man-nroff-groff-troff
1019.man-nroff-groff-grotty
I was thinking something similar could happen automatically. Not using
the name of the program execve()'d, because that comes later, but a list
of PIDs starting with the ancestor. So
strace -o foo -fff /usr/bin/foo
might produce
foo.100
and as that forks
foo.100-102
and forks again
foo.100-102-103
foo.100-109 would be 102's sibling.
It would make it that bit easier when grep-ing through them all, etc.,
to interpret the results.

Cheers, Ralph.
