porque eu não vejo malloc e free systemcall quando executar strace no comando stress

Question

O comando --vm do comando stress diz que

-m, --vm N spawn N workers spinning on malloc()/free()

Eu queria ver o que está realmente fazendo, então eu executei este comando

strace stress --vm 1

Eu recebo a seguinte saída,

execve("/bin/stress", ["stress", "--vm", "1"], [/* 27 vars */]) = 0

A saída está apenas aqui e não vejo nenhuma malloc() . Como posso ver isso fazendo malloc() e free() systemcalls?

    

Answer 1

malloc e free são chamadas da biblioteca, não chamadas do sistema. é por isso que eles estão na seção 3 do manual

No entanto, o stress não usa malloc e free, mas chama o alocador kernal via mmap e munmap .

Como o estresse faz isso em um processo filho, é necessário especificar -f para rastrear para tornar essas chamadas visíveis.

strace -f stress --vm 1
