cvxhang - create a process in a hung state and inform requestor's window
As shipped in IRIX 6.5.22. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.
NAME cvxhang - create a process in a hung state and inform requestor's window SYNOPSIS cvxhang [-signal hostname window] [-nonX pid] [-name target_name] target [args] DESCRIPTION cvxhang is used by the WorkShop Debugger and Performance tools to instantiate the target process with its optional args and leave it waiting just before executing its first instruction. A debugger, or any other tool, may then attach to the process and take control of its execution. If the -signal argument is given, once the process is created, cvxhang informs the window of the WorkShop Debugger requesting the creation, as given by the optional hostname and window on the command line, of the target process' PID. If the optional -nonX argument is given, the process whose pid is supplied will be sent SIGUSR1, and can determine that the target is ready to be attached. If the optional -name argument is given, argv[0] for the target process will be set to target_name. SEE ALSO cvhang(1), cvd(1)
