Hi,
I'm trying to debug a problem in FreeBSD's "dump" command. The dump
command creates 4 or 5 child processes,
and in my use case one of them gets a SIGSEGV.
Is it possible to monitor all spawned processes simultaneously? I'm
currently using gdb version 7.12.1 from the FreeBSD ports.
I would have to problem to use a newer version of gdb and compile it
locally.
regards,
chris
