Noteworthy changes in release ?.?? (????-??-??)
===============================================
* Changes in behaviour
* Warning is now issued when -F option is used.
* Warning is now issued when a tracee with unsupported personality
is attached.
* Improvements
* Implemented decoding of netlink descriptor attributes as file descriptors.
* Implemented decoding of hugetlb page size selection flags.
* Implemented decoding of BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN, BPF_PROG_GET_NEXT_ID,
BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_ID, BPF_PROG_GET_FD_BY_ID, BPF_MAP_GET_FD_BY_ID,
and BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD commands of bpf syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of get_thread_area, memfd_create, modify_ldt,
perf_event_open, reboot, set_thread_area, and shmget syscalls.
* Implemented decoding of KVM_* and DM_LIST_DEVICES ioctl commands.
* Implemented decoding of riscv_flush_icache syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of getsockopt and setsockopt syscalls for SOL_NETLINK
level.
* Enhanced decoding of BPF_MAP_CREATE command of bpf syscall.
* Print values returned by mq_open syscall and first arguments
of mq_getsetattr, mq_notify, mq_timedreceive, and mq_timedsend syscalls
as file descriptors.
* Added decoding of get_tls syscall on arm.
* Updated lists of MSG_*, NT_*, and SHM_* constants.
* Added manual page for the strace-log-merge command.
* Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 4.15.
* Implemented biarch support for s390x.
* Implemented an optional support for symbol demangling in strace -k output
(activated by --with-libiberty configure option).
* Information about availability of demangling and reliable personality
decoding (on architectures with multiple personalities) is now available
in strace -V output.
* Enhanced manual page.
* Bug fixes
* Fixed multi-personality support in cross builds.
* Added mq_getsetattr, mq_notify, mq_open, mq_timedreceive, and mq_timedsend
syscalls to %desc tracing set.
* Fixed path tracing support for mmap syscalls with indirect arguments.
* Fixed corner cases in handling of strace -ff -ttt logs by strace-log-merge.
* Error counts that exceed one billion are now printed correctly in call
summary output.
* Fixed call summary header for x32 personality.
* Changes of tracee personalities are reported more reliably.
* Fixed the case when strace attaches to a tracee being inside exec and its
first syscall stop is syscall-exit-stop instead of syscall-enter-stop,
which messed up all the syscall state tracking.
* Portability
* A C compiler that supports "for" loop initial declarations is now required.
* Inability to configure multiple personality support on architectures where
multiple personalities are supported leads to configuration failure during
build now. Use --enable-mpers=check to revert to the old behaviour.
* Build-time requirement for the mpers support has been lowered from gawk 4
to gawk 3.
* New tools
* Added asinfo tool, that is purposed to provide information about
system calls and architectures.
Noteworthy changes in release 4.20 (2017-11-13)
===============================================
* Improvements
* Implemented decoding of NETLINK_NETFILTER netlink message types and flags.
* Implemented decoding of SECCOMP_GET_ACTION_AVAIL operation of seccomp
syscall.
* Updated lists of ARPHRD_*, BPF_*, ETH_P_*, LOOP_*, MADV_*,
MEMBARRIER_CMD_*, MFD_*, SECCOMP_*, SO_*, SOL_*, TCP_*, and UFFD_FEATURE_*
constants.
* Added decoding of statx syscall on hppa.
* Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 4.14.
* Bug fixes
* Fixed powerpc personality support on powerpc64.
Noteworthy changes in release 4.19 (2017-09-05)
===============================================
* Changes in behaviour
* Changed formatting of personality names on tile architecture in order
to make it in line with other multi-personality architectures.
* Changed field output order in struct v4l2_requestbuffers to improve in/out
field formatting.
* Changed handling of multiple signal= specifications in an injection
expression: multiple specification now leads to error instead of implicit
usage the last specification.
* Improvements
* Enhanced decoding of optlen argument of getsockopt syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of SO_LINGER option of getsockopt and setsockopt syscalls.
* Enhanced decoding of SO_PEERCRED option of getsockopt syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP,
IPV6_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, IPV6_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, IPV6_JOIN_ANYCAST,
IPV6_LEAVE_ANYCAST, MCAST_JOIN_GROUP, and MCAST_LEAVE_GROUP options
of setsockopt syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of KEYCTL_DH_COMPUTE operation of keyctl syscall
(KDF parameters decoding).
* Implemented decoding of KEYCTL_RESTRICT_KEYRING operation of keyctl syscall.
* Enhanced decoding of UFFDIO_API ioctl command.
* Enhanced decoding of BPF_PROG_LOAD, BPF_MAP_CREATE, BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM,
and BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY commands of bpf syscall.
* Implemented decoding of linux socket filter programs specified
for SO_ATTACH_FILTER and SO_ATTACH_REUSEPORT_CBPF socket options.
* Implemented decoding of inet_diag_req_v2, inet_diag_req_compat,
packet_diag_msg, and smc_diag_msg netlink attributes of NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG.
* Implemented NETLINK_SELINUX protocol specific decoding.
* Implemented decoding of netlink message ack flags.
* Implemented decoding of nlmsgerr netlink attributes.
* Implemented basic protocol specific decoding of NETLINK_CRYPTO.
* Implemented decoding of crypto_user_alg netlink attributes
of NETLINK_CRYPTO.
* Implemented basic protocol specific decoding of addr, addrlabel, dcb, link,
mdb, neigh, neightbl, netconf, nsid, route, rule, tc, and tca messages
of NETLINK_ROUTE.
* Implemented decoding of NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT messages.
* Improved handling of unexpected tracees (the ones that cloned with
CLONE_PARENT/CLONE_PTRACE or called PTRACE_TRACEME on themselves): they
are now PTRACE_DETACH'ed instead of PTRACE_CONT'ed.
* Updated lists of BPF_*, KEY_*, RWF_*, SCM_*, SO_*, and *_MAGIC constants.
* Added decoding of arch_prctl syscall on x86.
* Added decoding of seccomp, bpf, userfaultfd, membarrier, mlock2,
copy_file_range, preadv2, pwritev2, and statx on alpha.
* Added decoding of statx syscall on microblaze.
* Added decoding of s390_guarded_storage syscall on s390.
* Updated lists of ioctl commands from Linux 4.13.
* Enhanced manual page.
* Bug fixes
* Fixed printing of group_req structure on non-native personalities.
* Fixed output formatting of blkpg_ioctl_arg, dm_name_list, and iocb
structures.
* Fixed formatting of nul-terminated strings which have kernel-imposed size
limit.
* Fixed printing of paths that hit PATM_MAX limit in order to match kernel's
behaviour.
* Fixed build warnings on Android mips64.
* Fixed unused function "is_negated_errno" build warning when built
with clang.
* Fixed syscall number and arguments retrieval behaviour on sparc64 and
mips o32 after prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 0) makes PTRACE_PEEKTEXT impossible
to use if Linux kernel has commit v4.10-rc1~114^2~2.
* Fixed path tracing for execveat, symlink, symlinkat, inotify_add_watch,
and inotify_init syscalls.
* Fixed personality switch printing on sparc64 and risc-v.

If command is terminated by a signal, strace terminates itself
with the same signal, so that strace can be used as a wrapper
process transparent to the invoking parent process.
When using -p option, the exit status of strace is zero unless
there was an unexpected error in doing the tracing.
