ftrace

This program allows an executable to be analyzed during execution by showing functions calls, syscalls and received signals.
Only x86_64 architecture and a Linux distribution is supported.

I've really loved to code this project because we've learned a lot about Intel processors, how they can fetch the good function at the wanted time, we've learnt some things such as the PLT, the GOT and how ELF format works. All theses things were really interesting to learn.

How to use it ?

Clone the project and run this command to compile the program:

$> make

Now run this one and replace program by the path (or simply the program's name if it can be found using $PATH environnement variable) of the program you want to trace:

$> ./ftrace <program>

Exemple:

$> ./ftrace ls
