hmmm true.. how about a patch for the kernel instead? :) ooh i can see that
happeneing at a really fast rate of knots, but kernels with run time config
that shouldne be too much of a problem, just modify slightly the execve()
call and away you go... then you can track by the vnode of the process text
in which case downloading statically linked suff would be easier to find.
you can track the vnode as well as the arguments.. heh collecting all this
data is approaching an overload... can anyone else think of an easier way?
