2026-06-02test(xattr): add removexattrat end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
removexattrat(2) (Linux 6.13+) was the one xattr *at-variant lacking integration coverage: xattr_test.go exercised getxattrat/listxattrat (READ-classified byte counts) and the path-based setxattr, but never the REMOVE *at variant. Unlike its getxattrat/listxattrat siblings, removexattrat returns a 0/-1 status (not a byte count), so its exit must be UNCLASSIFIED — matching removexattr/lremovexattr/fremovexattr. Add an ioworkload scenario (xattr-removexattrat) that setxattr's a user.* attribute via a real path then removes it via raw removexattrat(AT_FDCWD, path, 0, name), plus TestXattrRemovexattrat asserting the path (args[1], after the dirfd) is captured (never the xattr name at args[3]) and that accounted bytes are exactly zero (guarding against wrongly READ-classifying it like getxattrat/ listxattrat). Distinct from the fd-based fremovexattr gap (task 8i0). Classification verified by inspection: FamilyFS (xattr marker), KindPathname at the pathname field (ctx->args[1]), and absent from the ret-classification table => UNCLASSIFIED. No generator change needed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-02fix(classify): assign fanotify_init to FamilyIPC, not MiscPaul Buetow
fanotify_init(2) creates and initializes an fanotify notification group and returns an event-queue file descriptor. It is the direct analog of inotify_init1 (both are filesystem-event notification facilities whose group-creating syscall is a flags-taking fd-creator). inotify_init/ inotify_init1 are FamilyIPC alongside the other fd-based event-notification primitives (eventfd, signalfd, timerfd, userfaultfd), yet fanotify_init fell through to FamilyMisc by omission from the explicit family table -- an alarm/adjtimex-style misclassification inconsistent with its siblings. Add fanotify_init to the IPC family map and regenerate. Kind (KindEventfd, flags at args[0]) and ret (UNCLASSIFIED, returned fd captured via the fd mechanism) were already correct and are unchanged. fanotify_mark stays in Misc (path-marking, not fd creation). Docs plan updated to keep the docs-drift test in sync. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(integration): cover fsconfig/fspick/open_tree in mount-API scenarioPaul Buetow
Extend the mountfs-management scenario with best-effort fsconfig (KindFd), fspick (KindPathname), and open_tree (KindOpen) calls to complete new-mount-API end-to-end coverage. fsconfig reuses the fscontext fd from fsopen (FSCONFIG_SET_STRING + FSCONFIG_CMD_CREATE), fspick targets "/" with FSPICK_NO_AUTOMOUNT, and open_tree clones the scenario mount point with OPEN_TREE_CLONE|OPEN_TREE_CLOEXEC. All returned fds are closed and all errno values are ignored, so ENOSYS/EPERM/EINVAL/EBADF are tolerated; the sys_enter_ tracepoints fire on kernel entry regardless, creating no mounts on the host. Assert enter_fsconfig/enter_fspick/enter_open_tree (MinCount>=1) in TestMountFsManagementSyscalls and add the three syscalls to the trace filter. Gating is unchanged (root-only via the shared harness). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01fix(classify): mq_timedsend returns status, not bytes — make ret UNCLASSIFIEDPaul Buetow
mq_timedsend(2)/mq_send(3) return 0 on success or -1 on error; the payload size msg_len is an INPUT argument, never the return value. It was wrongly listed in retClassifications as WriteClassified, which made bytesFromRet attribute its 0 return as "bytes written" (the stats engine WriteClassified path). Remove it so its return stays UNCLASSIFIED, consistent with its POSIX mq sibling mq_timedreceive (which legitimately stays ReadClassified because it returns the received byte count). This is the exact same defect just fixed for SysV msgsnd (5057bd9) and mirrors the msgrcv/msgsnd asymmetry. Regenerated tracepoints/docs accordingly and updated the pre-existing classify unit test and the TestPosixMqBasic integration assertion: the mq_timedsend send no longer asserts a write byte count (now expects 0), while mq_timedreceive keeps its received-byte-count assertion. Verified: mage generate idempotent, mage build OK, internal/generate tests pass. TestPosixMqBasic skips in this sandbox (mq_open: permission denied) but compiles with the corrected assertions.

2026-06-01test(xattr): add path-based setxattr end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
The xattr integration tests previously only asserted on getxattrat/ listxattrat (path/dirfd READ-classified variants). The path-based setxattr(2) was traced by the existing xattr-getxattrat scenario (workload calls syscall.Setxattr; xattrTraceArgs includes setxattr) but never asserted. Add TestXattrSetxattr to verify end-to-end that: - enter_setxattr captures the filesystem PATH at args[0] (kind=pathname), never the xattr NAME at args[1]; - exit_setxattr is UNCLASSIFIED: setxattr returns a 0/-1 status, not a byte count (the size arg is the INPUT value length), so accounted bytes must be exactly zero. This guards against the msgsnd-style bug of treating a status return as bytes written, and contrasts with getxattr/listxattr which DO return byte counts (READ-classified). This is the PATH-based set complement to filed task 8i0 (fd-based fsetxattr/fgetxattr/flistxattr/fremovexattr); it does not duplicate it. Classification (FamilyFS, KindPathname enter, UNCLASSIFIED ret) is verified by inspection per task guidance, not by a unit test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(sched): assert sched_rr_get_interval enter in TestSchedBasicPaul Buetow
The sched-basic scenario already issues sched_rr_get_interval(0, &ts) via schedQueryPriorityRange, but TestSchedBasic only asserted the other sched_get* queries. Add an explicit enter_sched_rr_get_interval assertion to lock in its KindNull/UNCLASSIFIED tracing end-to-end. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01fix(classify): msgsnd returns status, not bytes — make ret UNCLASSIFIEDPaul Buetow
msgsnd(2) returns 0 on success or -1 on error; the payload size msgsz is an INPUT argument, never the return value. It was wrongly listed in retClassifications as WriteClassified, which made the stats engine treat its 0 return as "bytes written". Remove it so its return stays UNCLASSIFIED, consistent with its SysV IPC siblings (msgrcv legitimately stays ReadClassified because it returns a received byte count). Regenerated tracepoints/docs accordingly. Verified: mage generate idempotent, mage build OK, internal/generate tests pass, and the TestSysVMsgBasic integration test (added in task 7i0) still passes.

2026-06-01fix(classify): assign alarm to FamilyTime, not MiscPaul Buetow
alarm(2) arranges for a SIGALRM after a given number of seconds; it is a simplified setitimer(ITIMER_REAL) and, per alarm(2) NOTES, "alarm() and setitimer(2) share the same timer; calls to one will interfere with use of the other." The syscallFamilies table omitted alarm, so it fell through to FamilyMisc while its siblings setitimer/getitimer/timer_create were correctly FamilyTime — an adjtimex-style misclassification (cf. 7243b7c). Add alarm -> FamilyTime and move it from Misc to Time in the tracing plan; regenerate the family maps (trace IDs 468/469 now FamilyTime, "alarm": "Time"). Kind classification (KindNull/null_event: the single arg is an unsigned int seconds, no fd/path) and the UNCLASSIFIED return (seconds remaining, not a byte count; alarm never fails) were already correct. Also harden the misc-basic integration test with a deterministic enter_alarm assertion (alarm(0) is issued unconditionally by the scenario; the syscall-entry tracepoint always fires) so the alarm enter path is covered end-to-end even though alarm is now FamilyTime rather than Misc.

2026-06-01test(integration): add SysV msg/sem tracing coveragePaul Buetow
Add sysv-msg-basic and sysv-sem-basic ioworkload scenarios that exercise the SysV message-queue and semaphore families end-to-end via raw syscalls, mirroring the existing sysv-shm-basic scenario. sysv-msg-basic: msgget(IPC_PRIVATE) -> msgsnd -> msgrcv -> msgctl(IPC_RMID), using a struct msgbuf {int64 mtype; [16]byte mtext} and msgsz = body length (excluding mtype). sysv-sem-basic: semget(IPC_PRIVATE, 1) -> semop(+1) -> semop(-1) -> semctl(IPC_RMID), incrementing before decrementing so the operation can never block. Both defer IPC_RMID right after the get so no kernel IPC object leaks even on partial failure. Add TestSysVMsgBasic and TestSysVSemBasic asserting the enter_ events for msgget/msgsnd/msgrcv/msgctl and semget/semop/semctl are traced with MinCount>=1 and positive duration, plus PID/comm hermetic guards. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(integration): add Sched family tracing coveragePaul Buetow
Add a self-targeted, non-disruptive sched-basic ioworkload scenario and a dedicated TestSchedBasic integration test. The scenario pins to one OS thread (LockOSThread) and exercises only safe Sched syscalls: sched_yield; sched_getaffinity then sched_setaffinity re-applying the identical mask (a no-op); and read-only sched_getscheduler, sched_getparam, sched_getattr, sched_get_priority_max/min, and sched_rr_get_interval. sched_setscheduler, sched_setattr, and sched_setparam are intentionally excluded. The test scopes -trace-syscalls to the sched_* family, guards on PID and comm, and asserts enter_ tracepoints fire (MinCount>=1) for sched_yield, sched_getaffinity, sched_getscheduler, and sched_getparam. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(integration): add Misc family tracing coveragePaul Buetow
Add a misc-basic ioworkload scenario and an end-to-end integration test for the previously-uncovered Misc syscall family. The scenario exercises only the safe, unprivileged, non-blocking, side-effect-free Misc syscalls: getcpu (raw SYS_GETCPU), uname / sys_newuname (unix.Uname), sysinfo (unix.Sysinfo), vmsplice into a self-created and self-drained pipe with a tiny buffer, and alarm(0) to cancel any pending alarm. Code comments document why the remaining Misc syscalls are intentionally excluded (CAP_SYS_ADMIN / global host mutation, CAP_SYS_RAWIO / x86-only, Linux 6.13+ availability, runtime-managed, or not user-callable). misc_test.go asserts enter_getcpu, enter_newuname, and enter_sysinfo are each traced at least once for the ioworkload process, restricting tracing to the issued syscalls and keeping the existing PID/comm hermetic guards.

2026-06-01test(integration): add Signals family tracing coveragePaul Buetow
The SIGNALS syscall family previously had zero end-to-end coverage (signalfd/signalfd4 are IPC-family fd creators, not Signals). Add a self-targeting ioworkload scenario and an integration test that assert the family's tracepoints fire. scenario_signals.go (signals-basic) issues, all self-directed so it mutates no other process: - rt_sigaction : install SIG_IGN disposition for SIGUSR1 - rt_sigprocmask: BLOCK SIGUSR1 before sending, so self-delivery only marks it pending (never runs a handler / kills us) - sigaltstack : set then disable an alternate signal stack - kill/tgkill/tkill/rt_sigqueueinfo: send SIGUSR1 to self four ways - rt_sigpending : query the pending mask - rt_sigtimedwait: reap the pending signal with a SHORT 100ms timeout (hang guard); EAGAIN tolerated Safety: signal is blocked before any send; rt_sigtimedwait uses a 100ms timeout so it cannot hang; the original signal mask and SIGUSR1 disposition are restored and the alt stack disabled on exit. The goroutine is pinned with LockOSThread so gettid() matches the tgkill/tkill target and the per-thread mask applies to the waiting thread. Raw syscalls are issued directly so the tracepoints fire regardless of the Go runtime's own signal handling. pause (noreturn) and rt_sigreturn (handler-return only) are deliberately excluded. signals_test.go asserts enter_ tracepoints with MinCount>=1 for rt_sigaction, rt_sigprocmask, rt_sigpending, sigaltstack, kill, tgkill, and rt_sigtimedwait, plus a positive duration for the rt_sigtimedwait enter/exit pair.

2026-06-01test(internal): make comm-propagation/filter tests hermeticPaul Buetow
TestCommPropagation and TestEventTypeFiltering/FdEventFiltering were flaky in full `mage test` runs (passing in isolation). For synthetic events whose tid was not in the comm cache, the event loop fell back to commResolver's default resolveFn, which reads /proc/<tid>/comm on the host. The fixed test pids/tids are small (e.g. defaultTid+100 == 111, defaultPid+1 == 11) and collide with real transient kernel threads (e.g. kworker/0:1-events), so the resolved comm depended on what happened to be running on the host at that instant. Fix: use commResolver's existing injectable resolveFn seam. Add a newHermeticCommResolver() test helper whose resolveFn returns ("", nil) and never touches /proc, and inject it into TestCommPropagation (via eventLoopConfig.commResolver) and newEventLoopWithFilter (used by TestEventTypeFiltering). No production code changes. Assertions are unchanged: positive comm names still come from the synthetic OpenEvent.Comm bytes; cache-miss tids now deterministically resolve to empty regardless of host state. Updated the stale "use a very large TID to avoid /proc collisions" comment accordingly. Verified: -count=50 (affected tests) and -race -count=10 green, full `mage test` and `mage build` green.

2026-06-01test(integration): add SysV shm tracing coveragePaul Buetow
The SysV shared-memory family (shmget/shmat/shmdt/shmctl) had no end-to-end integration coverage. Add an ioworkload `sysv-shm-basic` scenario that, without privileges, runs shmget(IPC_PRIVATE) -> shmat -> write into the mapped segment -> shmdt -> shmctl(IPC_RMID), always issuing IPC_RMID (via defer) so no kernel segment leaks. Add TestSysVShmBasic asserting enter_shmget/enter_shmat/enter_shmdt/ enter_shmctl are each traced with a positive (paired enter/exit) duration. msg/sem coverage is scoped out and tracked as a follow-up task (7i0). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(integration): add pwritev/pwritev2 retbytes coveragePaul Buetow
Add write-side positional vectored coverage to close the remaining gap in the pwrite64-family byte-accounting validation. The retbytes/readwrite integration suite already exercised pwrite64 (scalar) and the read-side preadv/preadv2, but the WRITE_CLASSIFIED byte attribution for the vectored positional writes pwritev/pwritev2 was only covered by unit tests, not end-to-end. New ioworkload scenarios: - readwrite-pwritev: issues pwritev (syscall.SYS_PWRITEV) writing a known two-iovec payload at offset 0 to a temp file. - readwrite-pwritev2: issues pwritev2 via the explicit syscall number (328 amd64 / 287 arm64, mirroring preadv2SyscallNr) with offset 0 and no flags. New integration tests assert enter_pwritev/enter_pwritev2 fired and that the attributed retbytes equal the exact iovec total, validating WRITE_CLASSIFIED end-to-end. Both pass as root.

2026-06-01fix(types): fast-decode hot events at padded kernel struct sizePaul Buetow
The BPF side reserves sizeof(struct ...) via bpf_ringbuf_reserve, so the userspace ringbuf sample length equals the C struct size INCLUDING trailing alignment padding. For five event structs whose last field is 32-bit but which also contain a __u64 (forcing 8-byte trailing pad), the *EventSize fast-decode gate constants were set to the unpadded field-sum size instead of sizeof: open_event 300 -> 304 fd_event 28 -> 32 ret_event 36 -> 40 socket_event 36 -> 40 open_by_handle_at_event 28 -> 32 Because the kernel payload length never equalled those constants, the fast explicit-offset decoders were silently bypassed and every such event (including the very hot ret_event on each syscall exit, and fd_event on read/write/etc enter) fell back to the slow reflection-based binary.Read path. binary.Read reads only the field bytes and ignores trailing padding, so values were always correct -- this was a performance regression, not a correctness bug; verified by decoding padded payloads. Fix mirrors the existing socketpair/accept/pipe/eventfd/poll V1/V2 handling: the size gate now accepts both the kernel sizeof and the legacy field-sum size (the latter still emitted by Go binary.Write in tests and Bytes()), and the trailing pad bytes are ignored. Added kernel-layout tests feeding the padded payload for all five fixed decoders. Audit (task i20) confirmed every other event struct's Go layout, field order, and fast-decode offsets match the C side byte-for-byte. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-06-01test(generate): remove redundant pure-classification unit testsPaul Buetow
Classification correctness (which family/kind/return-class a syscall maps to) is verified by inspection against the man pages and the classifier rules, not by dedicated unit tests. The tracing-relevant outcome — which fd/path/byte-count the generated BPF C actually captures — is covered by the GenerateTracepointsC codegen tests and the end-to-end integration tests, all of which are retained. Removed: - internal/generate/family_test.go (ClassifySyscallFamily / .Family table) - internal/generate/retclassify_test.go (ClassifyRet read/write/transfer/ unclassified tables) - ~70 pure-classification tests trimmed from classify_test.go, keeping only the GenerateTracepointsC codegen/tracing tests plus the shared helpers (mustParseAll, mqFormats, phaseAFormats, syntheticEnter/Exit, itoa) used by codegen_test.go. - pure-classification funcs interleaved in codegen_test.go (TestClassifyRet*Unclassified, TestClassifyTkillFallsThroughToNull, Test{Mkdirat,Rmdir}FamilyAndKindMatchSiblings). Kept all TestGenerate* handler tests (they assert the generated BPF C captures the correct fd/path/arg-index/return classification), the isNoreturnSyscall tests, docs-drift guards, eventloop dispatch tests, and the integration suite — so every affected syscall still has tracing coverage. No tracing gaps discovered. generate package: go test (incl. -race) green; mage build green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31fix(classify): assign adjtimex to FamilyTime, not MiscPaul Buetow
adjtimex(2) and clock_adjtime(2) share one man page: both tune or query the kernel clock (clock_adjtime is adjtimex with an explicit clockid) and return a clock-state code or -1. The syscallFamilies table omitted adjtimex, so it fell through to FamilyMisc while its sibling clock_adjtime was correctly FamilyTime. Add adjtimex -> FamilyTime and move it from Misc to Time in the tracing plan; regenerate the family maps (trace IDs 418/419 now FamilyTime, "adjtimex": "Time"). Kind classification (KindNull/null_event) and the UNCLASSIFIED return (a clock-state code, not a byte count) were already correct. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(readahead): add end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
readahead(2) was traced (KindFd enter fd_event from args[0], UNCLASSIFIED exit ret_event) but had no integration or ioworkload scenario coverage, unlike its sibling sync_file_range. Add readwrite-readahead and readwrite-readahead-ebadf scenarios plus TestReadwriteReadahead / TestReadwriteReadaheadEbadf, asserting enter_readahead capture with path attribution, zero attributed bytes (readahead returns 0/-1, not a byte count, so it is correctly UNCLASSIFIED), and positive end-to-end duration. No classification change: inspection confirms KindFd / UNCLASSIFIED is correct per man 2 readahead; bytesFromRet returns 0 for UNCLASSIFIED so the 0/-1 return is never misattributed as bytes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31listxattrat: READ-classify return for xattr-list family consistencyPaul Buetow
listxattrat(2) (Linux 6.13+) returns the size in bytes of the list of extended attribute names, exactly like listxattr/llistxattr/flistxattr, but its exit was classified UNCLASSIFIED, so its read bytes were dropped from I/O totals. Classify it as ReadClassified and regenerate the BPF handler (ret_type now READ_CLASSIFIED). This mirrors the getxattrat fix (task ku, commit c3177bd) and completes xattr-family consistency: get-family and list-family are READ_CLASSIFIED while set-family and remove-family stay UNCLASSIFIED (they return 0/-1). Update the docs ReadClassified list and the retclassify expectation, and add an ioworkload scenario plus integration test: the workload sets a user xattr then lists names via the raw listxattrat(2) syscall with AT_FDCWD, and the test asserts enter_listxattrat captures the file path and accounts the returned name-list size as read bytes. Task: r20 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31getxattrat: READ-classify return for xattr-get family consistencyPaul Buetow
getxattrat(2) (Linux 6.13+) returns the xattr value size in bytes, exactly like getxattr/lgetxattr/fgetxattr, but its exit was classified UNCLASSIFIED, so its read bytes were dropped from I/O totals. Classify it as ReadClassified and regenerate the BPF handler (ret_type now READ_CLASSIFIED). Path extraction (args[1], after the dirfd) and the name-not-captured-as-path behaviour were already correct. Update the docs ReadClassified list and the retclassify expectation, and add the first xattr integration coverage: an ioworkload scenario that sets then getxattrat-reads a user xattr on tmpfs, plus a test that asserts enter_getxattrat captures the file path (not the xattr name) and accounts the returned value size as read bytes.

2026-05-31test(timer): add POSIX timer family end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
The POSIX per-process timer family (timer_create, timer_settime, timer_gettime, timer_getoverrun, timer_delete) had no end-to-end integration coverage; only the unrelated fd-returning sibling timerfd_create was exercised. Add a posix-timer-lifecycle workload scenario and TestPosixTimerLifecycle to validate these are traced as null_events, and guard against timer_create being misclassified like timerfd_create (timer_create returns a timer_t via an output pointer, not an fd, so its records must carry no 'timerfd:' descriptor path). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(retbytes): assert read byte counts for pread64/preadv/preadv2Paul Buetow
The retbytes integration coverage exercised read/write/sendto/etc but the positional read p-variants only had presence assertions (pread64) or no coverage at all (preadv/preadv2), so their READ_CLASSIFIED byte accounting was validated only by unit tests, not end-to-end. Add a positive byte-count assertion to TestReadwritePread and new readwrite-preadv / readwrite-preadv2 workload scenarios plus integration tests that read a known payload and assert the attributed byte count, mirroring the existing pwrite64 assertion. preadv2 lacks a Go syscall.SYS_PREADV2 constant, so its number is provided per-GOARCH (amd64=327, arm64=286) following the securitySyscallNumbers pattern. Addresses the read side of b20. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(openat2): add end-to-end integration coverage for openat2Paul Buetow
openat2(2) is the one open-family syscall with a structurally distinct argument layout: flags/mode live inside the open_how struct (args[2]), not as a plain int, and args[3] is the struct size. The tracer correctly reads the path from args[1] and omits flags (ev->flags = -1) rather than misreading the struct ptr/size, and registers the returned fd->path mapping via the shared handleOpenExit path. This was verified by inspection but had no integration scenario, unlike open/openat/creat/ open_by_handle_at. Add an open-openat2 ioworkload scenario issuing the raw openat2 syscall (Go has no wrapper and routes Open through openat) and a TestOpenOpenat2 integration test asserting the enter_openat2 tracepoint captures the path. Verified passing as root. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(mountfs): exercise fsopen end-to-end in mount-API scenarioPaul Buetow
The mountfs-management integration scenario covered the new mount API syscalls fsmount/move_mount/mount/umount/pivot_root but not fsopen, the API's entry point and a direct eventfd-kind sibling of fsmount. Add a best-effort fsopen("tmpfs", FSOPEN_CLOEXEC) call (closing the returned context fd on success) and assert enter_fsopen is traced. fsopen's tracing is otherwise correct: args[1] flags captured, args[0] fsname (a filesystem TYPE, not a path) deliberately not treated as a pathname, returned fd registered as the 'fsopenfd:<flags>' descriptor. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(aio): add io_submit end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
Audit of io_submit tracing (task 0v) confirmed the tracer is correct by inspection: KindNull (sys_enter_io_ prefix rule) so ctx_id/nr/iocbpp are opaque and no fd/path is captured; FamilyAIO; return is UNCLASSIFIED (the return is a count of iocbs submitted, not a byte count, so it must not inflate READ/WRITE/TRANSFER totals). Enter/exit are paired and timed. No implementation discrepancy and no docs drift. Add a genuine end-to-end test: new aio-submit ioworkload scenario sets up an AIO context and submits one real IOCB_CMD_PWRITE iocb against a temp file via raw syscalls, then tears the context down. TestAioSubmit asserts the enter_io_submit tracepoint fires for the AIO family workload. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-31test(aio): add io_setup end-to-end integration coveragePaul Buetow
The classic Linux AIO family (io_setup/io_submit/io_getevents/io_cancel/ io_destroy) had no integration coverage: family_test.go exercises only FS/Memory/IPC/Network/Process/Sched/Time, and iouring_test.go covers only the distinct io_uring_* family. io_setup is classified KindNull/FamilyAIO, which is correct by inspection against man 2 io_setup (nr_events is a count, ctx_idp an output pointer, so no fd/path is captured), so the tracer itself needed no change. Add an ioworkload AIO scenario that drives io_setup(2)/io_destroy(2) raw (no privileges, no libaio) plus an EINVAL variant, and integration tests that assert ior records the enter_io_setup tracepoint end-to-end, mirroring the existing iouring scenario/test pattern. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(generate): lock in semctl handler as KindSysVOp/FamilyIPCPaul Buetow
Audit of semctl(2) confirmed the implementation is correct: it is classified KindSysVOp in FamilyIPC, consistent with its SysV control-syscall siblings msgctl/shmctl (and semget/semop/semtimedop). The enter handler emits a null_event and captures no argument, so the semid at args[0] -- a System V IPC identifier, NOT a file descriptor -- is correctly not recorded as an fd. The exit handler reports the raw op-dependent int status (value or -1) as UNCLASSIFIED, never a byte count. The classification table already covered semctl, but only msgctl's generated handler body was directly asserted. Add dedicated lock-in tests mirroring TestGenerateMsgctlHandler: - TestGenerateSemctlHandler: enter emits null_event, no ctx->args[] capture, no ev->fd; exit ret_type UNCLASSIFIED. - TestClassifyRetSemctlUnclassified: ret is UNCLASSIFIED. No classification, generated C, docs, or runtime behavior changed (mage generate produces no diff), so this is a test-only addition. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30generate: treat rt_sigreturn as noreturn (suppress dead exit handler)Paul Buetow
rt_sigreturn(2) restores the pre-signal execution context off the signal stack frame and resumes the interrupted instruction; it never returns to the instruction after the syscall. man sigreturn(2) states plainly that "sigreturn() never returns", and tracing against /sys/kernel/tracing confirms it: sys_enter_rt_sigreturn fires once per signal-handler return while sys_exit_rt_sigreturn never fires. The generator previously emitted a dead handle_sys_exit_rt_sigreturn (it can never run) and recorded a per-tid syscall_enter_state_map entry on the enter path that nothing would ever delete (no exit fires), leaking entries in the bounded map on every signal-handler return. Add rt_sigreturn to noreturnSyscalls so codegen suppresses the dead exit handler and routes the enter handler through ior_on_noreturn_syscall_enter (sampling decision only, no map write), exactly like exit/exit_group. The enter null_event is still emitted, and the FamilySignals/KindNull classification is unchanged. Regenerated the C/Go artifacts and the result baseline accordingly, and generalized the related comments. Lock-in tests: TestRtSigreturnIsNoreturn asserts rt_sigreturn is noreturn; TestRtSigSiblingsAreNotNoreturn guards that the returning rt_sig* siblings are not; TestGenerateExitNoreturnHandlers now also covers rt_sigreturn.

2026-05-30test(generate): lock in pwritev WRITE byte-count classificationPaul Buetow
Audit of pwritev(2) confirmed the existing classification is correct: pwritev returns the number of bytes written, so its exit is WRITE_CLASSIFIED (matching write/pwrite64/writev/pwritev2), fd is at args[0] (KindFd), and it lives in the FS family. The read-side sibling preadv stays READ_CLASSIFIED. No implementation changes were needed. Add TestClassifyPwritevWriteByteCount as a lock-in test mirroring the prior pwritev2/pwrite64 audits, with a preadv off-by-one contrast guard and transfer/unclassified negative checks across the whole p/readv/writev family so any stray reclassification trips the test.

2026-05-30test(pipe): lock in pipe/pipe2 IPC classification and fd-pair exit readsPaul Buetow
Audit of pipe(2)/pipe2(2) (task dx) confirmed the tracing implementation is correct: KindPipe (not KindFd, since args[0] is an output ptr to int[2], not an fd), FamilyIPC, and an UNCLASSIFIED int return. Enter stashes the output ptr (flags=0 for pipe, args[1] for pipe2); exit reads the fd pair via bpf_probe_read_user guarded by ret==0, mirroring the socketpair pipe-like pattern. The only gaps were missing lock-in tests, now added: - codegen: assert the exit handler reads the fd pair from the stashed output buffer (ret==0 guard, bpf_probe_read_user, fd0/fd1) and that the flag-less pipe variant hardcodes flags=0 and never reads args[1]. - classify: pipe/pipe2 are never KindFd and stay UNCLASSIFIED on ret. - runtime: a failed pipe (ret==-1) tracks no descriptors and attaches no file.

2026-05-30test(perf_event_open): lock in audit findingsPaul Buetow
Audited perf_event_open(2) against the man page: it returns a new fd (or -1), args[0] is a struct perf_event_attr* userspace pointer (NOT an fd), args[1] is a monitored pid, and only args[3] group_fd is a real fd. The existing implementation is correct (KindPerfOpen by name, not KindFd; FamilySecurity; exit as UNCLASSIFIED RetEvent). Add lock-in tests: - codegen: assert args[0] is read via bpf_probe_read_user as the attr struct and never captured as an fd (negative assertions on args[0]/args[1]). - eventloop: a failed return (-1) registers no fd in fdState. - perfDescriptorName format pin (perf: prefix).

2026-05-30test(generate): lock in msgctl SysV-op classificationPaul Buetow
msgctl(2) operates on a System V message queue identified by msqid (args[0]). msqid is a SysV IPC id returned by msgget, NOT a file descriptor; capturing it as an fd would corrupt the fd-resource view. ior already classifies msgctl as KindSysVOp in FamilyIPC (consistent with siblings semctl/shmctl/msgget/msgsnd/msgrcv), emits a null_event with no arg capture, and reports the int status as UNCLASSIFIED. Add lock-in tests pinning this behavior: - TestGenerateMsgctlHandler: KindSysVOp for msgctl/semctl/shmctl, all FamilyIPC; generated enter handler emits null_event and captures no args (asserts no ctx->args[ and no ev->fd); exit ret is UNCLASSIFIED. - TestClassifyRetMsgctlUnclassified: msgctl ret is never a byte count. No implementation change needed; mage generate produces no diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(mlockall): lock in KindNull/FamilyMemory classificationPaul Buetow
Audit of mlockall(2) (task 6w). mlockall(int flags) locks ALL process memory and takes a single flags bitmask (MCL_CURRENT/MCL_FUTURE/ MCL_ONFAULT) with NO address range, unlike its KindMem siblings mlock/mlock2/munlock (which take addr+len). It is therefore correctly classified KindNull in FamilyMemory, matching its sibling munlockall(2). All existing classification (classify.go, family.go, generated artifacts, docs plan) already match; no fixes needed. Add two lock-in tests documenting the reasoning: TestGenerateNullHandlerMlockall asserts the enter handler emits a null_event and never captures the flags int as an addr/fd/path, and TestClassifyRetMlockallUnclassified asserts the 0/-1 return is UNCLASSIFIED (not a byte count).

2026-05-30test(dup): lock in fd_event handler captures oldfd (args[0])Paul Buetow
Audit of dup(2) found the tracing implementation already correct and consistent with its dup2/dup3 siblings: dup(int oldfd) takes a single fd argument (the sys_enter_dup tracepoint exposes it as field "fildes", unsigned int, at args[0]). It is classified KindFd (a plain fd_event), the enter handler captures ev->fd from args[0] per the KindFd convention, it is in the FS family (fd grouping), and its exit returns the new (lowest-numbered unused) descriptor or -1 as a plain UNCLASSIFIED ret_event (never a byte-count transfer). Like dup2, dup carries no flags and clears FD_CLOEXEC on the duplicate; the eventloop registerDup path registers the returned newfd onto the same underlying file with flags=0, which it already honors (applyFdTransferOp handles SYS_ENTER_DUP). Docs (FS, fd) and the drift tests are in sync; existing coverage already includes TestClassifyDup, the makeFdDupTestData full-lifecycle eventloop test, and integration TestDupBasic/TestDupInvalidFd. No discrepancies were found, so add a lock-in test (matching the dup2 audit) asserting the generated BPF C for dup captures fd from args[0] (not args[1]), emits an fd_event (not a dup3_event), wires no flags, and classifies the exit UNCLASSIFIED. Adds FormatExitDup testdata to drive the exit handler assertions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(arch_prctl): lock in KindNull/UNCLASSIFIED + FamilyProcessPaul Buetow
Audit of the arch_prctl(2) syscall found the tracing implementation already correct and consistent with the man page: - enter classifies as KindNull (op/addr never captured as fd/path) - exit is a ret_event with UNCLASSIFIED ret_type (int 0/-1 status) - family is Process (deliberately, unlike its x86 siblings ioperm/iopl/modify_ldt which are Misc), in sync with the docs and the tracepoints drift tests Add dedicated lock-in tests mirroring the prior iopl audit, using the real kernel tracepoint fields (option/arg2 on enter, ret on exit) so the heuristics are proven safe even without the name-only mapping. Also add explicit FamilyProcess assertions for arch_prctl and personality to guard against drift toward Misc. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(generate): lock in listen(2) handler classificationPaul Buetow
Audit of syscall listen(2): int listen(int sockfd, int backlog). Confirmed the tracing implementation already matches the man page and its socket siblings (bind/connect/accept/getsockname/getpeername): - KindFd, capturing ev->fd = args[0] (sockfd) - FamilyNetwork - exit ret_event UNCLASSIFIED (returns 0/-1, no byte count) listen was already covered by the name-based classify/family/retclassify tests but lacked a dedicated generated-handler lock-in test like its bind/getsockname siblings. Add FormatListen/FormatExitListen tracepoint fixtures and TestGenerateListenHandler asserting the enter captures fd=args[0] (and never backlog at args[1]) and the exit stays UNCLASSIFIED. No classification or generated-code changes; mage generate produces no diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(kexec_file_load): lock in KindFd/Security/UNCLASSIFIED auditPaul Buetow
Audit of kexec_file_load(2) against the man page confirmed the existing classification is already correct and consistent: KindFd capturing kernel_fd at args[0], FamilySecurity (matching its sibling kexec_load after task 6v), and an UNCLASSIFIED ret_event exit (returns 0/-1). The cmdline argument (args[3]) is a kernel command-line STRING, not a filesystem path, and is correctly never read as a path; the second fd initrd_fd (args[1]) is not captured, per the single-fd KindFd convention. Add a dedicated lock-in test plus real-kernel-format fixtures so future refactors cannot silently regress the fd wiring: assert ev->fd=args[0], no args[1] fd capture, no bpf_probe_read_user_str on the cmdline, and an UNCLASSIFIED (never READ/WRITE/TRANSFER) exit.

2026-05-30test(socketpair): lock in domain-is-not-an-fd invariant (c00)Paul Buetow
Audit of socketpair(2) found the tracing implementation already correct: KindSocketpair captures the two output fds from the sv[2] buffer (args[3]) at exit and never treats args[0] (the address-family/domain constant) as a file descriptor. Family=Network and UNCLASSIFIED ret are consistent with the socket/accept siblings and the docs. Add regression lock-in tests so a future field-shape or classification change cannot silently regress to recording the domain integer as a bogus fd: - TestClassifySocketpairNotFd: pins the name-based override so socketpair is KindSocketpair, never the generic KindFd path that reads args[0]. - TestHandleSocketpairExitDoesNotTrackDomainAsFd: uses AF_INET6 (10), distinct from the returned fds, and asserts fd 10 is never tracked while sv0/sv1 are. - TestHandleSocketpairExitDropsFdsOnError: on ret!=0 no descriptors are tracked.

2026-05-30test(setsockopt): lock in KindFd enter, UNCLASSIFIED exit, Network familyPaul Buetow
Audit of setsockopt(2) found the tracing implementation already correct: sockfd captured at ctx->args[0] (KindFd), exit ret_event UNCLASSIFIED, and FamilyNetwork — matching the man page and the bind/connect/getsockname/ getpeername/getsockopt siblings, with generated C/Go and docs all consistent. Add lock-in tests mirroring prior per-syscall audits: - TestClassifySetsockoptEnterFd: enter is KindFd with no pathname capture, asserted against the real sockfd/level/optname/optval/optlen fields. - TestClassifyExitSetsockoptUnclassifiedRet: exit is KindRet + UNCLASSIFIED (0/-1 status, not a byte count). - TestClassifyExitGetsockoptUnclassifiedRet: same for the read-side sibling. - TestClassifySyscallFamily: pin setsockopt (enter+exit) and getsockopt to FamilyNetwork. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(rmdir): lock in FS family, args[0] pathname capture, UNCLASSIFIED exitPaul Buetow
Audit of the rmdir(2) syscall found the tracing implementation already correct and fully consistent with its siblings: rmdir is in the FS family, classified KindPathname with the pathname captured from args[0] (its generated BPF C handler is byte-identical to unlink's), and its exit is a ret_event with UNCLASSIFIED ret_type (rmdir returns int 0/-1, not a byte count). The docs and drift tests, integration tests (unlink-rmdir success and unlink-rmdir-notempty ENOTEMPTY failure), and retclassify coverage all already match. To guard against future drift, add a dedicated rmdir lock-in: - FormatRmdir tracepoint fixture (single const char * pathname at args[0], mirroring the real sys_enter_rmdir format and unlink's shape). - TestGenerateRmdirHandlerCapturesPathFromArgs0: asserts the generated handler reads the path from args[0] (with a negative guard against args[1], since rmdir has no dirfd) and that the exit stays UNCLASSIFIED. - TestRmdirFamilyAndKindMatchSiblings: asserts rmdir shares FamilyFS and KindPathname/pathname with unlink/unlinkat/mkdir.

2026-05-30test(request_key): lock in keyctl kind, security family, and unclassified returnPaul Buetow
Audit of request_key(2) found the tracing implementation already correct and consistent with the man page and the prior keyctl audit (task 7v): request_key classifies as KindKeyctl/FamilySecurity, the BPF handler captures option=-2 sentinel and key_serial=dest_keyring (args[3]) with no path/string capture of the const char * type/description/callout_info key-metadata args, and the exit returns a key serial / -1 that stays UNCLASSIFIED. Strengthen the dedicated TestClassifyRequestKey beyond a bare kind check to also assert PathnameField stays empty (string args are key metadata, not paths), family is Security on enter and exit, and the return is UNCLASSIFIED — bringing it to parity with the add_key contrast assertion. No code/generated changes; mage generate produces no diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(generate): lock in pwrite64 WRITE_CLASSIFIED auditPaul Buetow
Add TestClassifyPwrite64WriteByteCount pinning the pwrite64(2) audit: fd at args[0] (KindFd), FS family, and WRITE_CLASSIFIED return (the syscall returns the number of bytes written). Asserts pread64 stays READ_CLASSIFIED as the read-side positional contrast, guards against transfer/unclassified misclassification, and checks the write/pread sibling group so a stray reclassification trips the test. No implementation changes: classify.go, family.go, generated C/Go, and docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md were already consistent and correct. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(generate): lock in lseek classification (offset, not byte count)Paul Buetow
Audit of lseek(2) confirmed the tracing implementation is already correct: enter is a KindFd fd_event capturing the fd from args[0], the syscall is FamilyFS alongside its read/write/fsync siblings, and the exit is a plain ret_event that stays UNCLASSIFIED. lseek returns the RESULTING file offset (off_t, bytes from the start of the file), which is a file position, NOT a count of bytes transferred — so it must never be READ/WRITE/TRANSFER classified, which would wrongly inflate I/O byte totals. Add lock-in tests pinning that behaviour so a future reclassification trips: - FormatLseek/FormatExitLseek tracepoint fixtures. - TestClassifyFdLseek: enter resolves to KindFd (fd at args[0]). - TestClassifyRetExitLseek: exit is KindRet and ClassifyRet stays UNCLASSIFIED. - lseek entry in TestClassifySyscallPairAccepted (end-to-end pair). - FS-family asserts for sys_enter/exit_lseek in family_test. - Enriched UNCLASSIFIED comment in retclassify_test explaining offset != bytes. No generated-artifact changes (mage generate produces no diff); no in-scope bugs and no out-of-scope follow-ups found. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30kexec_load: classify into Security family with its siblingPaul Buetow
kexec_load(2) and kexec_file_load are documented together on the same man page and both load a new kernel for later execution by reboot(2). kexec_file_load was already FamilySecurity, but kexec_load fell through to FamilyMisc. Move kexec_load to FamilySecurity so the siblings share a family. Kind classification was already correct: kexec_load takes raw user pointers (KindNull, no fd/path) while kexec_file_load takes fds (KindFd); the return value (long 0/-1, no byte count) stays UNCLASSIFIED. Update docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md to match, regenerate artifacts, and add lock-in tests for the family and UNCLASSIFIED return of both kexec syscalls plus reboot. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(generate): lock in io_uring_register classification auditPaul Buetow
Audit of io_uring_register(2) confirmed the existing tracing is correct: KindFd with the io_uring fd captured at args[0], FamilyAIO (matching io_uring_setup/io_uring_enter), and an UNCLASSIFIED ret_event exit. The sys_enter_io_ KindNull prefix rule does NOT mis-catch it because classifyNameOnly consults the exact nameOnlyKindsTable (KindFd) before the prefix list. Add two lock-in tests to guard these invariants: - TestIoUringRegisterTablePrecedenceOverIoPrefix: the explicit KindFd table entry wins over the sys_enter_io_ KindNull prefix rule (with an io_submit sanity check that the prefix rule still yields KindNull for fd-less AIO siblings). - TestIoUringRegisterReturnUnclassified: the exit returns 0/small-positive, never a byte count, so the io_uring group stays out of retClassifications. No code, docs, or generated artifacts changed; mage generate produces no diff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
2026-05-30test(getsockname): lock in KindFd/FamilyNetwork/UNCLASSIFIED classificationPaul Buetow
Audit of getsockname(2) confirmed correct tracing: enter is KindFd with the sockfd captured from args[0], family is FamilyNetwork, and the exit ret_event is UNCLASSIFIED (0/-1, no byte count) — matching the man page and its bind/connect/listen/accept/getpeername siblings. Integration coverage already exists (ioworkload calls Getsockname; TestSocketIntro- spection asserts enter_getsockname). Add lock-in tests symmetric with the existing getpeername coverage: - TestClassifyExitGetsockname: exit tracepoint maps to KindRet. - TestGenerateGetsocknameHandler: enter captures fd=args[0]; the addr output pointer (args[1]) and addrlen in/out pointer (args[2]) are not captured, and the exit stays UNCLASSIFIED. - FormatGetsockname/FormatExitGetsockname fixtures copied verbatim from the real kernel tracepoint format (third arg is a pointer, unlike bind's by-value addrlen).

2026-05-30test(getcwd): lock in KindNull enter + exit-time cwd resolutionPaul Buetow
Audit of the getcwd(2) tracing path. getcwd's args[0] is a char *buf OUTPUT buffer: the kernel writes the absolute cwd path into it and the contents are only valid AFTER the syscall returns. Reading it at enter would capture an empty/garbage string, so getcwd is correctly KindNull at enter and the cwd is resolved at EXIT from /proc/<tid>/cwd when the return value is positive (handleNullExit). Family FS, docs and drift tests already aligned; no behavior change required. Add lock-in tests pinning the correct behavior: - generate: strengthen TestClassifyNullGetcwd to assert the enter kind is never KindPathname/KindName and no pathname field is captured; add TestClassifyByFieldGetcwdBufNotPath proving the generic field classifier never treats char *buf as a path (defense-in-depth). - eventloop: add GetcwdFailureEventTest asserting that a failed getcwd (negative errno, e.g. -ERANGE) attaches no cwd path, and document the output-buffer nuance in the success-case test.

2026-05-30test(kill): lock in KindNull enter and UNCLASSIFIED retPaul Buetow
Audit of kill(2) (pid_t pid, int sig): the pid at args[0] is a process/ process-group identifier and sig a signal number, neither an fd nor a path, so the enter tracepoint is KindNull and the int 0/-1 return is a status code (UNCLASSIFIED), not a transferred byte count. Classification and docs (Signals/null) already matched and need no change. Add TestClassifyExitKillUnclassifiedRet (the return-value lock-in its signal siblings tkill/tgkill/rt_sigqueueinfo already have) and harden TestClassifyKillExplicitNull to assert no PathnameField is captured, documenting the deliberate contrast with pidfd_send_signal (KindFd/IPC, args[0] is a real pidfd).

2026-05-30test(iopl): lock in KindNull enter and UNCLASSIFIED ret classificationPaul Buetow
Audit of iopl(2) (task wu). iopl(int level) changes the x86 I/O privilege level of the calling thread and returns int 0/-1. The existing coverage only asserted KindNull via a synthetic arg0 field (TestClassifyE7NullNameOnlyKinds) and the FamilyMisc family tag (from the prior ioperm audit, task uu). Add dedicated lock-in tests that use the real 'int level' tracepoint field to prove it is never captured as an fd or path, and that the sys_exit_iopl ret stays KindRet/UNCLASSIFIED (a status code, not a transferred byte count). No implementation, generated-artifact, or docs changes were needed - everything already matched the man page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
