Yep, you should get what you want with 2.5 + NPTL. We need to add a few bits, though, to make it complete. > Thanks _very_ much in advance. I'd be tickled pink if the answer is something > like "just look at the foo flag in ps", or "upgrade to version 1.2.3.4 of > procps and do xyzzy", but my intuition tells me otherwise. See http://tech9.net/rml/procps and "upgrade to version 2.0.8 or later of procps" :) It is just a heuristic, though. A hack in fact. We look at a process's children and compare RSS, VM size, and the process image they are running. If they are the same, we label them threads. It is the default behavior. Flag `-m' turns it off. See thread_group() and flag_threads().
