SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       sotruss  is a small wrapper around ld.so that runs the specified executable until it exits. It intercepts
       and produce a trace of the dynamic library calls which  are  called  by  the  executed  process  via  the
       Procedure  Linkage  Table  (PLT).  It  outputs  the  caller, the calle and the parameters as each call is
       executed.
