Trackfs is a small program that tracks file system changes -- creation,
|
|
update and removal of fs objects -- of another program (or group of
|
|
programs). It is similar to `installwatch', but works quite differently:
|
|
While installwatch uses LD_PRELOAD to intercept library functions like
|
|
open() and unlink(), trackfs runs the child program(s) with tracing
|
|
enabled and tracks the system calls they make.
|
|
|
|
trackfs also includes "playback", which runs a program via trackfs
|
|
and creates a shell script which, when run, will reverse all filesystem
|
|
changes made by the program.
