This is strace - a diagnostic, debugging and instructional userspace utility
|
|
with a traditional command-line interface for Linux. It is used to monitor
|
|
and tamper with interactions between processes and the Linux kernel, which
|
|
include system calls, signal deliveries, and changes of process state.
|
|
The operation of strace is made possible by the kernel feature known as ptrace.
|
|
|
|
strace is released under a Berkeley-style license at the request
|
|
of Paul Kranenburg; see the file COPYING for details.

System requirements:

|
* Linux kernel >= 2.6.18 is recommended. Older versions might still work
|
|
but they haven't been thoroughly tested with this release.
|
|
* Linux kernel >= 2.5.46 is required.
|
|
Older versions without a decent PTRACE_SETOPTIONS support will not work.
|
|
* On mips, Linux kernel >= 2.6.15 is required.
|
|
Older versions without a decent PTRACE_GETREGS support will not work.
|
|
* On s390 and s390x, Linux kernel >= 2.6.27 is required.
|
|
Older versions without a decent PTRACE_GETREGSET support will not work.
