12 autrace is a program that will add the audit rules to trace a process
13 similar to strace. It will then execute the program passing arguments
14 to it. The resulting audit information will be in the audit logs if the
15 audit daemon is running or syslog. This command deletes all audit rules
16 prior to executing the target program and after executing it. As a
17 safety precaution, it will not run unless all rules are deleted with
18 auditctl prior to use.
19
21 -r Limit syscalls collected to ones needed for analyzing resource
22 usage. This could help people doing threat modeling. This saves
23 space in logs.

26 The following illustrates a typical session:
27
28 autrace /bin/ls /tmp
29 ausearch --start recent -p 2442 -i
30
31 and for resource usage mode:
32
33 autrace -r /bin/ls
34 ausearch --start recent -p 2450 --raw | aureport --file --summary
35 ausearch --start recent -p 2450 --raw | aureport --host --summary

37
39 ausearch(8), auditctl(8).
