           Summary: The Dtrace PID provider not working with 32 bit
                    daemons in a 64 bit environment.

Tested for a sample daemon on Stock FreeBSD 10.2 Release  with 32 bit and 64
bit executables. The daemon had an orphan child process running a while loop
with sleep(). Pasted below is the code for the sample daemon :

int main()                                                                      
{                                                                               
  pid_t process_id = 0;                                                         
// Create child process                                                         
  process_id = fork();                                                          
  if (process_id < 0)                                                           
       {                                                                        
          printf("fork failed!\n");                                             
          exit(1);                                                              
       }                                                                        
// killing the parent                                             
   if (process_id > 0)                                                          
      {                                                                         
          printf("The process id of the child is :%d" , process_id);            
          exit(0);                                                              
      }                                                                         
  while (1)                                                                     
      {                                                                         
       sleep(1);                                                                
      }                                                                         
}       

* The child process’s pid was then traced for using    dtrace –n
‘pid$target:::entry {} ‘ -p < pid of the child process >   

* The dtrace test on the 32 bit daemon reported a segmentation fault : signal
11 and resulted into a core. The backtrace of the core looked like :
Core was generated by `daemon'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

correctly.
