Many test executables create temporary files in the current work directory for the duration of their execution. This level of test isolation allows more test executables to be invoked several times simultaneously. * tests/.gitignore: Add *.dir, remove *.log.*, *.tmp, *.tmp-*, and *.tmp.* patterns. * tests/Makefile.am (clean-local, clean-local-check): New rules. (.PHONY): Add clean-local-check. (CLEANFILES): Remove all but ksysent.h. * tests/init.sh: Strip test-specific prefix from LOG, OUT, and EXP variables. When invoked from a test, create a new test-specific directory, chdir into it, and add more ../ prefix to STRACE variable. (run_prog): Replace "./" with "../". * tests/attach-f-p.test: Replace "./" with "../". * tests/attach-p-cmd.test: Likewise. * tests/bexecve.test: Likewise. * tests/btrfs-v.test: Likewise. * tests/btrfs-vw.test: Likewise. * tests/btrfs-w.test: Likewise. * tests/count.test: Likewise. * tests/detach-running.test: Likewise. * tests/detach-sleeping.test: Likewise. * tests/detach-stopped.test: Likewise. * tests/mmap.test: Likewise. * tests/net-y-unix.test: Likewise. * tests/net-yy-inet.test: Likewise. * tests/net-yy-netlink.test: Likewise. * tests/net-yy-unix.test: Likewise. * tests/net.test: Likewise. * tests/opipe.test: Likewise. * tests/poll.test: Likewise. * tests/prctl-seccomp-strict.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_fault-exit_group.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_fault.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_inject-error-signal.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_inject-retval.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_inject-signal.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_signal.test: Likewise. * tests/qual_syscall.test: Likewise. * tests/readv.test: Likewise. * tests/redirect-fds.test: Likewise. * tests/sched.test: Likewise. * tests/scm_rights-fd.test: Likewise. * tests/seccomp-strict.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-C.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-E.expected: Likewise. * tests/strace-E.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-S.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-T.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-V.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-ff.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-k.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-r.expected: Likewise. * tests/strace-r.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-t.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-tt.test: Likewise. * tests/strace-ttt.test: Likewise. * tests/sun_path.test: Likewise. * tests/uname.test: Likewise. * tests/unix-pair-send-recv.test: Likewise. * tests/unix-pair-sendto-recvfrom.test: Likewise.
strace - the linux syscall tracer
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.
See the file NEWS for information on what has changed in recent versions.
Please read the file INSTALL-git for installation instructions.
The user discussion and development of strace take place on the strace mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to strace-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. The mailing list archives are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/strace/mailman/strace-devel/ and other archival sites.
