Useful to have is:
But what you need to write a tracer highly depends on the thing you want to trace. If you want ICMP packets it's not that hard and you should be able to grep your way through the linux source to figure out what to do. But if you dig deep down into the scary parts, schedulers, bio you're need dig (way) more. |
