 My suggestion is to go for a system call, but only call it :
 
 - when the thread starts
-- when receiving a SIG_UPDTRACING (multithread ?)
+- when receiving a SIGRTMIN+3 (multithread ?)
 
 Note : save the thread ID (process ID) in the logging function and the update
 handler. Use it as a comparison to check if we are a forked child thread.
