Description

Instruments a running Linux system with scripts that gather detailed kernel and application behavior, helping developers and administrators diagnose performance, errors, and low-level system activity. It is useful when ordinary logs are not enough.

Tracing can affect performance and expose sensitive runtime data. Use with authorization, understand the script being run, and protect collected output.
