Only the root user or users with .Xr sudo 8 Pq Pa ports/security/sudo access can run this command. .Pp .Nm automates the process of generating DTrace scripts to coalesce trace output by date/time, process info, and .Op optionally probe-specific data. .Pp Output format without options is: .Pp .Dl date/time uid.gid execname[pid]: psargs .Pp For example, the command .Ql dwatch BEGIN produces: .Pp .Dl INFO Watching 'dtrace:::BEGIN' ... .Dl 2017 May 29 08:23:20 0.0 dtrace[60671]: dtrace -s /dev/stdin .Pp The .Fl F option causes .Nm to instead coalesce trace output by date/time, process info, and probe traversal. .Pp Output format with the .Ql Fl F option is: .Pp .Dl date/time uid.gid execname[pid]: {->,<-, |} prov:mod:func:name ... .Pp For example, the command .Ql dwatch -F BEGIN produces: .Pp .Dl INFO Watching 'dtrace:::BEGIN' ... .Dl 2017 May 29 21:34:41 0.0 dtrace[86593]: | dtrace:::BEGIN ... .Pp The .Fl R option causes .Nm to display a process tree containing the parent, grandparent, and ancestor process info. .Pp Output format with the .Ql Fl R option is: .Pp .Dl date/time uid0.gid0 execname[pid0]: psargs0 .Dl " -+= pid3 uid3.gid3 psargs3" .Dl " \e\\-+= pid2 uid2.gid2 psargs2" .Dl " \e\\-+= pid1 uid1.gid1 psargs1" .Dl " \e\\-+= pid0 uid0.guid0 psargs0" .Pp For example, the command .Ql dwatch -R BEGIN produces: .Pp .Dl INFO Watching 'dtrace:::BEGIN' ... .Dl 2017 May 29 21:38:54 0.0 dtrace[86899]: dtrace -s /dev/stdin .Dl " -+= 86855 604.604 -bash" .Dl " \e\\-+= 86857 604.604 /bin/sh /usr/sbin/dwatch -R BEGIN" .Dl " \e\\-+= 86897 0.0 sudo dtrace -s /dev/stdin" .Dl " \e\\-+= 86899 0.0 dtrace -s /dev/stdin" .Pp Of particular interest is the ability to filter using regular expressions. The .Ql Fl g Ar group , .Ql Fl p Ar pid , .Ql Fl r Ar regex , .Ql Fl u Ar user , and .Ql Fl z Ar regex options can be combined with .Ql Fl R to match on parent process criteria as well as current process info. .Pp In contrast, the .Ql Fl j Ar jail , and .Ql Fl k Ar name options apply only to the current process even if .Ql Fl R is given. .Pp The .Ql Fl E Ar code option gives the ability to customize probe-specific data. For example, the command: .Pp .Dl dwatch -E 'printf("%s", copyinstr(arg0))' chdir .Pp displays the path argument sent to .Xr chdir 2 calls. .Pp Profiles can be written for more complex routines and/or convenience. To list available profiles use the .Ql Fl Q option. Use the .Ql Fl X Ar profile option to use a particular profile. .Pp For example, the command .Ql dwatch -X kill displays arguments sent to .Xr kill 2 . .Sh OPTIONS If a .Ar probe argument does not contain colon .Pq Qo Li ":" Qc and none of .Ql Fl P , .Ql Fl m , .Ql Fl f , or .Ql Fl n are given, the probe argument is intelligently mapped to its most-likely value. Use .Ql Nm Fl l Ar name to see what probes will match a given name. .Pp Multiple probes must be given as a single .Pq quoted argument, separated by comma and/or whitespace. Any/all arguments following said probes will be passed to .Xr dtrace 1 unmodified. .Bl -tag -width "-c count" .It Fl 1 Print one line per process/profile .Pq Default; disables Ql Fl R . .It Fl B Ar num Maximum number of arguments to display .Pq Default 64 . .It Fl d Debug. Send .Xr dtrace 1 script to stdout instead of executing. .It Fl e Exit after compiling request but prior to enabling probes. .It Fl E Ar code DTrace .Ar code for event details. If `-', read from stdin. This allows customization of what is printed after date/time and process info. By default, the name and arguments of the program triggering the probe are shown. Can be specified multiple times. .It Fl f Enable probes matching the specified function names. .It Fl F Coalesce trace output by probe. .It Fl g Ar group Group filter. Only show processes matching .Ar group name/gid. This can be an .Xr awk 1 regular expression to match a numerical gid. .It Fl j Ar jail Jail filter. Only show processes matching .Ar jail name/jid. .It Fl k Ar name Only show processes matching .Ar name . Can also be of the format .Ql Li name* to indicate .Dq Li begins with , .Ql Li *name to indicate .Dq Li ends with , or .Ql Li *name* to indicate .Dq Li contains . Can be specified multiple times. .It Fl K Ar num Maximum directory depth to display .Pq Default 64 . .It Fl l List available probes on standard output and exit. .It Fl m Enable probes matching the specified module names. .It Fl X Ar profile Load profile from DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH. .It Fl n Enable probes matching the specified probe names. .It Fl N Ar count Exit after .Ar count matching entries .Pq Default 0 for disabled . .It Fl o Ar file Set output file. If .Ql Li - , the path .Ql Li /dev/stdout is used. .It Fl O Ar cmd Execute .Ar cmd for each event. This can be any valid .Xr sh 1 command. The environment variables .Ql Li $TAG and .Ql Li $DETAILS are set for the given .Ar cmd . .It Fl p Ar pid Process id filter. Only show processes with matching .Ar pid . This can be an .Xr awk 1 regular expression. .It Fl P Enable probe matching the specified provider name. .It Fl q Quiet. Hide informational messages and all dtrace(1) errors. .It Fl Q List available profiles in DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH and exit. .It Fl r Ar regex Filter. Only show blocks matching .Xr awk 1 regular expression. .It Fl R Show parent, grandparent, and ancestor of process. .It Fl t Ar test Test clause .Pq predicate to limit events .Pq Default none . Can be specified multiple times. .It Fl T Ar time Timeout. The format is .Ql Li #[smhd] or just .Ql Li # for seconds. .It Fl u Ar user User filter. Only show processes matching .Ar user name/uid. This can be an .Xr awk 1 regular expression to match a numerical UID. .It Fl v Verbose. Show all errors from .Xr dtrace 1 . .It Fl V Report .Nm version on standard output and exit. .It Fl w Permit destructive actions .Pq copyout*, stop, panic, etc. . .It Fl x Trace. Print .Ql Li when a probe is triggered. .It Fl y Always treat stdout as console .Pq enable colors/columns/etc. . .It Fl z Ar regex Only show processes matching .Xr awk 1 regular expression. .El .Sh PROFILES Profiles customize the data printed during events. Profiles are loaded from a colon-separated list of directories in .Ev DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH . This is an incomplete list of profiles with basic descriptions: .Bl -tag -width "vop_readdir" .It chmod Print mode and path from .Xr chmod 2 , .Xr lchmod 2 , .Xr fchmodat 2 .It errno Print non-zero errno results from system calls .It io Print disk I/O details provided by .Xr dtrace_io 4 .It ip Print IPv4 and IPv6 details provided by .Xr dtrace_ip 4 .It kill Print signal and pid from .Xr kill 2 .It nanosleep Print requested time from .Xr nanosleep 2 .It open Print path from .Xr open 2 , .Xr openat 2 .It proc Print process execution details provided by .Xr dtrace_proc 4 .It proc-signal Print process signal details provided by .Xr dtrace_proc 4 .It rw Print buffer contents from .Xr read 2 , .Xr write 2 .It sched Print CPU scheduling details provided by .Xr dtrace_sched 4 .It tcp Print TCP address/port details provided by .Xr dtrace_tcp 4 .It tcp-io Print TCP I/O details provided by .Xr dtrace_tcp 4 .It udp Print UDP I/O details provided by .Xr dtrace_udp 4 .It vop_create Print filesystem paths being created by .Xr VOP_CREATE 9 .It vop_lookup Print filesystem paths being looked-up by .Xr VOP_LOOKUP 9 .It vop_mkdir Print directory paths being created by .Xr VOP_MKDIR 9 .It vop_mknod Print device node paths being created by .Xr VOP_MKNOD 9 .It vop_readdir Print directory paths being read by .Xr VOP_READDIR 9 .It vop_remove Print filesystem paths being removed by .Xr VOP_REMOVE 9 .It vop_rename Print filesystem paths being renamed by .Xr VOP_RENAME 9 .It vop_rmdir Print directory paths being removed by .Xr VOP_RMDIR 9 .It vop_symlink Print symlink paths being created by .Xr VOP_SYMLINK 9 .El .Sh ENVIRONMENT These environment variables affect the execution of .Nm : .Bl -tag -width "DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH" .It Ev DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH If .Ev DWATCH_PROFILES_PATH is set, .Nm searches for profiles in the colon-separated list of directories in that variable instead of the default .Ql Li /usr/libexec/dwatch:/usr/local/libexec/dwatch .
