I think I already mentioned [1], it requires some other knowledge (regarding ANSI terminals and terminfo/termcap, mostly), however. Overall, there is also vast field of work regarding support of various ioctl() calls, but it is difficult to recommend since it already requires some understanding of strace and kernel inner workings in order to be done right (from my point of view).

Fwd: How to call Strace native library in Android application?
-- Forwarded message -- From: Saba Arshad Date: Tue, Feb 21, 2017 at 6:18 PM Subject: How to call Strace native library in Android application? To: strace-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Hello Sir, I am developing an android security application in my MS Research where I want to use Strace by an android application programmatically, So I imported Strace for Android from the source [1] which contains .c files, shown in the image below, 1.png. All the .c files are added automatically in the cpp folder when i gave the path of Android.mk file. the Android.mk file is given in link [2] and MainActivity.java is given in the image 2.png. Now i want to call the strace from the android application by adding strace.c native library. The problem is that when I give the name of starce.c as the native library the application stops unexpectedly. Anyone knows why this is happening? please let me know if i am missing something. I have already posted this question at stack overflow [3] but could not find any help unfortunately. Thanks in Advance.

Hello, I read the resources provided and am reading the mailing list. I have successfully cloned and built strace. There are two projects specified on the wiki page : "https://sourceforge.net/p/strace/wiki/GoogleSummerOfCode2017/"; : 1) Adding tests for better coverage 2) Adding new classes for -e trace=class. Should I start working on one of these or is there some other small feature that does not require much knowledge of internals of strace that I should work on?
