2man strace
1 complete usage that is basically universal:
strace -o output.txt -T -tt -e trace=all -p 28979
The above meaning is to track all system calls of the 28979 process (-e trace=all), count the time spent on the system call, and the start time (shown in a visual minute and second format), and finally save the recorded results in the output.txt file.
A few usages you must remember
strace-pid Can track a background process
strace-filename outputs the tracking results to the file
3) ES25en-ES26en records the time spent on each system call to see which system call takes the longest
4) ES28en-ES29en (or -ES30en) Records the time each system call occurs (in minute and second format)
5) When es32EN-s 1024 displays system call parameters, the default is 32 for the length of string. If the string parameters are too long, a lot of information cannot be displayed.
6) ES35en-ES36en trace=nanosleep Only records the relevant system call information.
-ES40en trace=network // Only system calls related to network api are logged
-ES45en trace=file // Records only system calls involving file names
-ES49en trace=desc // Records only system calls involving file handles
Others include process, ipc, signal and so on.
