NOTES

strace-log-merge does not work well with strace logs generated by strace -tt invocation that pass midnight, as those lack the information required for the proper sorting. Employing the -ttt option in the respective strace invocation should solve the problem.  

BUGS

strace-log-merge does not perform any checks whether the files specified are in the correct format and implies that only files from a single strace session match STRACE_LOG.* glob pattern.  

HISTORY

The initial version of strace-log-merge was written by Denys Vlasenko in 2012.  

REPORTING BUGS

Problems with strace-log-merge should be reported to the strace mailing list at <strace-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>.
