Typically tracking events such as mmap events, comm events,
fork events and exit events, are processed by "machine"
functions. Change these functions to put pid in the new
pid_ member of struct thread.

Why do you want to add a new API for this? Why not just fix findnew_thread and find_thread to take the pid argument? We don't need 2 apis that do the same thing.
