When synthesizing FORK events, we are trying to create thread objects for the already running tasks on the machine. Normally, for a kernel FORK event, we want to clone the parent's maps because that is what the kernel just did. But when synthesizing, this should not be done. If we do, we end up with overlapping maps as we process the sythesized MMAP2 events that get delivered shortly thereafter. Use the FORK event misc flags in an internal way to signal this situation, so we can elide the map clone when appropriate. Signed-off-by: David S.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
