Hello,

Anyone know can I monitor in real time all the files that are open(), 
read(), stat[64]() and close() in a Linux kernel ?

I assume setuid privileges. If a tool exists for this task, let me know.

Thanks for the continued effort of the list in providing support for Linux 
developers.

Regards,

Hey,

Something like "lsof"?

Another way that comes into mind would be to manipulate the filesystem driver..
Though I haven't seen any exported kernel function that does this...
