Suppress attach/detach/exit status messages
-q
option is used to suppress attach/detach process message. Compare following outputs:
a) Without -q
option:
# strace -p 444
strace: Process 444 attached
restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted nanosleep ...>) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, 0x7ffc026d31c0) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, 0x7ffc026d31c0) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, ^Cstrace: Process 444 detached
<detached ...>
b) With -q
option:
# strace -q -p 444
restart_syscall(<... resuming interrupted nanosleep ...>) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, 0x7ffc026d31c0) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, 0x7ffc026d31c0) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=1, tv_nsec=0}, ^C <detached ...>
-qq
option will also suppress process exit status message. Compare following outputs:
a) Without -qq
option:
# strace ls
......
exit_group(0) = ?
+++ exited with 0 +++
b) With -qq
option:
# strace -qq ls
......
exit_group(0) = ?
