Hi,
I have problems using ktruss because with some applications it will always
fail with "ktrace write failed, errno 35, tracing stopped". Therefore, I
commented out the check in line 612 in /sys/kern/kern_ktrace.c. ktruss
does work now but do I risk to push the kernel into an infinite loop?
605 tries = 0;
606 do {
607 error = (*fp->f_ops->fo_write)(fp, &fp->f_offset, &auio607,
608 fp->f_cred, FOF_UPDATE_OFFSET);
609 tries++;
610 if (error == EWOULDBLOCK)
611 yield();
612 } while ((error == EWOULDBLOCK)/* && (tries < 3)*/);
