forkstat (process fork/exec/exit monitoring tool).
|
|
|
|
Forkstat monitors process fork(), exec() and exit() activity.
|
|
It is useful for monitoring system behaviour and to track down r ogue
|
|
processes that are spawning off processes and potentially abusing the
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
Note that forkstat uses the Linux netlink connector to gather process
|
|
activity and this may miss events if the system is overly busy.
|
|
Netlink connector also requires root privilege.
