ausyscall: Display syscall number of a specific system call.
$ ausyscall ${search_pattern}
try on your machine

The ausyscall command is used to search and retrieve the system call name or number associated with a given pattern in the Systemtap installed tapsets.

Here's an explanation of the command syntax and its components:

  • ausyscall: It is the actual command that is executed.
  • ${search_pattern}: A placeholder that represents the pattern you want to search for. For instance, if you provide a pattern such as "openat", the command will try to find and display the system call name or number associated with it.

Overall, the command is used to search for and display the system call name or number based on the provided search pattern.
