Is there a way to know, at a real time, what threads are opened and what application opened them?
You can look in
/proc/<PID>/task/(where<PID>is a process-ID) which will have a number of subdirectories, each with the name equal to the thread-ID of one of the threads in that task.Note that this is only sort-of real-time though — unless you were to “freeze” the entire system for the duration, the information you get can always be stale, because a process may create or destroy threads even as you’re looking at the data.
