The "m" option is forced on, since the kernel does not have full thread support. Threads look just like processes.
I'd like to fix this. At a very minimum, I need a way to identify tasks that share address space. This is poor though, since I would have to make ps sort processes by default. I think ps should be somewhat fast by default.
I'd really like the same /proc files as Solaris has. Then I could quickly identify threads.
BTW, I'm also hoping for a /proc/*/tty "link" that points to the tty device.
I'll get all this done in a few years if I don't get any help. Anybody dislike waiting that long? Give it a shot.
