+ <body>
+ <p>The interface between the ABI-specific backends and the truss
+ core was refactored, reducing duplicated code. This prompted
+ additional follow-on work to add support for more ABIs, including
+ aarch64 and CloudABI.</p>
+
+ <p>In addition, ptrace(2) was extended to return more
+ information about the currently executing system call. This
+ restored behavior that had been present in a previous verison of
+ truss of knowing the correct number of arguments for all system
+ calls.</p>
+
+ <p>The fork-following support in truss was reworked to use
+ native fork following in ptrace(2) rather than forking a new truss
+ process for each child of a traced process.</p>
+
+ <p>Support for decoding more arguments has also been added in
+ the last quarter as well.
