strace

strace是 Linux 的诊断、调试和教学用户空间实用程序。它用于监视和篡改进程和 Linux 内核之间的交互，包括系统调用、信号传递和进程状态的更改。

系统管理员、诊断员和故障处理者会发现，解决源不易可用的程序的问题非常宝贵，因为它们不需要重新编译以跟踪它们。

层的操作是由被称为ptrace的内核功能使。

附加到已正在运行的进程。

$ strace -p 26380

按系统调用类型进行筛选。

-e trace=%desc     Trace all file descriptor related system calls.
         %file     Trace all system calls which take a file name as an argument.
         %fstat    Trace fstat and fstatat syscall variants.
         %fstatfs  Trace fstatfs, fstatfs64, fstatvfs, osf_fstatfs, and osf_fstatfs64 system calls.
         %ipc      Trace all IPC related system calls.
         %lstat    Trace lstat syscall variants.
         %memory   Trace all memory mapping related system calls.
         %network  Trace all the network related system calls.
         %process  Trace all system calls which involve process management.
         %pure     Trace syscalls that always succeed and have no arguments.
         %signal   Trace all signal related system calls.
         %stat     Trace stat syscall variants.
         %statfs   Trace statfs, statfs64, statvfs, osf_statfs, and osf_statfs64 system calls.
         %%stat    Trace syscalls used for requesting file status.
         %%statfs  Trace syscalls related to file system statistics.

仅跟踪系统调用访问给定路径。

$ strace -P /etc/ld.so.cache ls /var/empty
open("/etc/ld.so.cache", O_RDONLY) = 3
fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=22446, ...}) = 0

对从/写入文件描述符读取的所有数据执行完整的十六进制和 ASCII 转储。

执行系统呼叫故障注入。

$ strace -e trace=open -e fault=open cat
