It's a very large platform for me to describe easily.
kmod is a set of tools to handle common tasks with Linux kernel modules like insert, remove, list, check properties, resolve dependencies and aliases. These tools are designed on top of libkmod, a library that is shipped with kmod.......
Sabayon is a Gentoo-based GNU/Linux Operating System designed for speed and ease of use. With the ability to use Gentoos Portage or Sabayons own Entropy system, the ability to compile a program for your needs or simply install a pre-built binary has never been easier. Sabayon, like Gentoo, is a......
Ftrace is an internal tracer designed to help out developers anddesigners of systems to find what is going on inside the kernel.It can be used for debugging or analyzing latencies andperformance issues that take place outside of user-space.Although ftrace is typically considered the function tracer, itis really a frame work......
This package implements two system log daemons: syslogd and klogd.......
The ktrace utility enables kernel trace logging for the specified processes. Kernel trace data is logged to the file ktrace.out. The kernel operations that are traced include system calls, namei translations, signal processing, and I/O.Once tracing is enabled on a process, trace data will be logged until either the process......
The libnl suite is a collection of libraries providing APIs to netlink protocol based Linux kernel interfaces. Netlink is a IPC mechanism primarly between the kernel and user space processes. It was designed to be a more flexible successor to ioctl to provide mainly networking related kernel configuration and monitoring......
DTrace is a performance analysis and troubleshooting tool that is included by default with various operating systems, including Solaris, Mac OS X and FreeBSD. A Linux port is in development.DTrace instruments all software. Not just user-level software, including applications, databases and webservers, but also the operating system kernel and device......
SystemTap provides free software (GPL) infrastructure to simplify the gathering of information about the running Linux system. This assists diagnosis of a performance or functional problem. SystemTap eliminates the need for the developer to go through the tedious and disruptive instrument, recompile, install, and reboot sequence that may be otherwise......
Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (known by the acronym ALSA) is a free and open source software framework that provides an API for device drivers for sound cards. Some of the goals of the ALSA project at its inception were automatic configuration of sound-card hardware, and graceful handling of multiple sound......
perf is a performance analyzing tool in Linux, available from Linux kernel version 2.6.31 under tools/perf, and is frequently updated and enhanced. It is capable of lightweight profiling, supports hardware performance counters, tracepoints, software performance counters (e.g. hrtimer), and dynamic probes (for example, kprobes or uprobes).The output from perf can......
ktap is a script-based dynamic tracing tool for Linux. It uses a scripting language and lets users trace the Linux kernel dynamically. ktap is designed to give operational insights with interoperability that allows users to tune, troubleshoot and extend the kernel and applications. It's similar to Systemtap and DTrace.ktap has......
strace is a diagnostic, debugging and instructional userspace utility for Linux. It is used to monitor 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.Some Unix-like systems......
ltrace intercepts and records dynamic library calls which are called by an executed process and the signals received by that process. It can also intercept and print the system calls executed by the program. Used for debugging.......
This program is a supplement to "Windows Internals, 5th Edition", though anyone may download and use it.From the book's web page:Notmyfault: Use this executable and driver to crash your system in several different ways. Chapter 7 uses Notmyfault to demonstrate pool leak troubleshooting and Chapter 14 uses it for crash......
The Linux man-pages project documents the Linux kernel and C library interfaces that are employed by user-space programs. This package contains over 1,900 man pages.......
