The arch can be anything returned by `uname \-m`. If arch is not given, the program will take a guess based on the running image. You may give the syscall name or number and it will find the opposite. You can also dump the whole table with the \-\-dump option. By default a syscall name lookup will be a substring match meaning that it will try to match all occurrences of the given name with syscalls. So giving a name of chown will match both fchown and chown as any other syscall with chown in its name. If this behavior is not desired, pass the \-\-exact flag and it will do an exact string match. - -This program can be used to verify syscall numbers on a biarch platform for rule optimization. For example, suppose you had an auditctl rule: - -.B \-a always, exit \-S open \-F exit=\-EPERM \-k fail\-open - -If you wanted to verify that both 32 and 64 bit programs would be audited, run "ausyscall i386 open" and then "ausyscall x86_64 open". Look at the returned numbers. If they are different, you will have to write two auditctl rules to get complete coverage. - -.nf -.B \-a always,exit \-F arch=b32 \-S open \-F exit=\-EPERM \-k fail\-open -.B \-a always,exit \-F arch=b64 \-S open \-F exit=\-EPERM \-k fail\-open -.fi - -For more information about a specific syscall, use the man program and pass the number 2 as an argument to make sure that you get the syscall information rather than a shell script program or glibc function call of the same name. For example, if you wanted to learn about the open syscall, type: man 2 open. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B \-\-dump -Print all syscalls for the given arch -.TP -.B \-\-exact -Instead of doing a partial word match, match the given syscall name exactly. - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR ausearch (8), -.BR auditctl (8). - -.SH AUTHOR -Steve Grubb |
