Root cause: the generic field matcher classifyByField only maps an arg
literally named "fd" to KindFd. Several syscalls operate on an EXISTING
fd whose tracepoint arg0 is named something else, so they fell through
to KindNull -> null_event, capturing NO descriptor and dropping the fd
they act on:
- timerfd_gettime / timerfd_settime: arg0 is "int ufd" (the timerfd)
- splice: arg0 is "int fd_in" (source fd of an in-kernel transfer)
- tee: arg0 is "int fdin" (source fd of an in-kernel transfer)
Fix: add explicit KindFd overrides for these four sys_enter_* keys to
nameOnlyKindsTable so the enter handler captures arg0, mirroring the
established epoll_wait(epfd) / mq_*(mqdes) / sendfile64(out_fd) /
copy_file_range(fd_in) precedent. splice/tee were surfaced by a systemic
sweep of tracepoint formats for fd-typed arg0 named other than "fd" that
currently classify to null; they are TransferClassified siblings of
sendfile64/copy_file_range and clearly fd-operating. The *at() family
(dfd arg0) is intentionally untouched: it is path-classified, and
timerfd_create remains the KindEventfd fd CREATOR.
Regenerated artifacts (mage generate): the four enter handlers now emit
fd_event capturing ctx->args[0] instead of null_event; exit handlers stay
UNCLASSIFIED. Updated the generated kind maps, the golden result.txt, the
classify_test expectations, and docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md (moved the
four from kind "null" to kind "fd"; families IPC/Network unchanged).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

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).

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.

Audit of gettid(2) ('pid_t gettid(void)', no args, always succeeds) found
the classification correct and consistent with its no-arg id-returning
siblings getpid/getppid/getuid/getgid (FamilyProcess, KindNull enter,
ret_event UNCLASSIFIED exit), and mage generate produces no diff. However
gettid lacked dedicated lock-in coverage and was missing entirely from the
family_test.go Process table despite its siblings being asserted there.
Add TestClassifyGettidNullEnter and TestClassifyExitGettidUnclassifiedRet
(mirroring the getgid pattern: enter null_event capturing nothing, exit ret
classified UNCLASSIFIED so the returned tid is never mistaken for a byte
count) plus gettid enter+exit FamilyProcess assertions in family_test.go.

Audit of getgid(2) found its classification already correct: family
Process, enter KindNull (gid_t getgid(void) takes no arguments), exit
KindRet with UNCLASSIFIED ret_type (returns a gid, never a byte count,
and always succeeds). Family, kind, generated C handler, and docs all
matched its no-arg id-returning siblings getuid/geteuid/getegid/getpid/
gettid/getppid, so no implementation or doc changes were needed.
Add two dedicated lock-in tests using the real tracepoint fields,
mirroring the setuid/setpgid audit pattern, so a stray reclassification
of getgid trips a test:
- TestClassifyGetgidNullEnter: enter is KindNull, no path/fd capture.
- TestClassifyExitGetgidUnclassifiedRet: exit is KindRet, UNCLASSIFIED.

The finit_module audit (task 8t) confirmed the tracing implementation
matches man 2 finit_module: KindFd with fd at args[0], param_values
string never captured as a path, exit UNCLASSIFIED, and FamilySecurity
alongside init_module/delete_module. No implementation discrepancies
were found.
Extend TestClassifyInitModuleVsFinitModule to also assert the
previously-untested dimensions so the classification stays pinned:
- finit_module captures no path (empty PathnameField), like init_module
- both module-loading syscalls are FamilySecurity
- both exits are UNCLASSIFIED (0/-1 return, no byte count)

sendfile64(out_fd, in_fd, offset, count) transfers bytes between two file
descriptors in the kernel and returns the number of bytes written to out_fd.
Its tracepoint fields carry no field literally named "fd", so it fell through
to KindNull and captured no descriptor at all - inconsistent with its sibling
copy_file_range (KindFd) and the read/write/sendto/recvfrom families.
Add an explicit sys_enter_sendfile64 -> KindFd override that captures out_fd
(args[0], the destination the bytes are written to), matching the single-fd
KindFd convention. The return value stays TransferClassified, consistent with
copy_file_range/splice/tee/vmsplice. Family stays Network (sendfile is
historically socket-oriented; copy_file_range=FS is pure file-to-file).
Update docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md (move sendfile64 from null to fd kind),
regenerate C/Go artifacts, fix the phase-A classify assertion, and add
TestClassifySendfile64CapturesOutFd as a lock-in + negative test. The existing
TestRetbytesPhaseA integration test still passes with the runtime change.

Add TestClassifySchedSetparamPidNotFd as a dedicated regression test for
the sched_setparam(2) audit. The syscall takes a pid_t (args[0], NOT an
fd; 0 = calling thread) and a userspace const struct sched_param *, so
the enter must classify as KindNull and the exit as KindRet/UNCLASSIFIED
(returns 0/-1, no byte transfer), matching family Sched.
Implementation, docs, and generated C/Go artifacts already matched the
man page; sched_setparam was previously only asserted as a sibling check
inside the sched_getparam test. This pins its full behavior directly,
consistent with prior sched_getparam/sched_getattr audits.

Audit of sched_getparam(2): int sched_getparam(pid_t pid, struct
sched_param *param). args[0] is a PID (not an fd) and param is a
userspace output pointer, so the enter tracepoint classifies as
KindNull and the family is Sched; the exit returns int 0/-1 (a status
code, not a byte count) and stays KindRet/UNCLASSIFIED.
Classification in classify.go, family.go, and docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md
already match the man page and the sched_* siblings; mage generate
produces no diff. This adds a dedicated lock-in regression test mirroring
the prior sched_getattr audit, pinning the pid-not-fd invariant, the
family, the exit classification, and sibling consistency with
sched_setparam.

Audit of setpgid(pid_t pid, pid_t pgid): both args are process/process-
group identifiers (kernel tracepoint type pid_t), never an fd or path;
the call returns int 0/-1. Verified it is correctly classified KindNull
(null_event), FamilyProcess, and UNCLASSIFIED ret, and that the Process
and null lists in docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md stay in sync. No
classification change was needed.
Add lock-in tests so a future stray reclassification trips immediately:
- TestClassifySetpgidNullEnter feeds the REAL tracepoint fields (pid_t
pid, pid_t pgid) and asserts KindNull, proving args[0] (pid) is never
mistaken for an fd: isFdType matches only int/unsigned int/unsigned
long (not pid_t) and the fd heuristic also requires field name fd.
- TestClassifyExitSetpgidUnclassifiedRet asserts the exit is KindRet and
ClassifyRet stays UNCLASSIFIED (status code, not a byte count).
- Add setpgid to the retclassify UNCLASSIFIED cluster beside setsid/getsid.

Resolve the get_robust_list/set_robust_list classification decision: keep
both as FamilyMisc rather than promoting them to FamilyIPC alongside the
recently-moved futex_* syscalls.
Rule (now documented in family.go next to the futex IPC block): a syscall
is IPC only if it PERFORMS the actual IPC/sync operation (futex
wait/wake/requeue on the futex word, or an op on an IPC object). Per-thread
registration/bookkeeping that merely hands the kernel a pointer it consults
later -- rseq and get_robust_list/set_robust_list -- stays Misc. man 2
get_robust_list confirms the robust futex list is 'managed in user space:
the kernel knows only about the location of the head'; these syscalls
register/query that per-thread head pointer and never wait/wake or touch
shared memory, structurally identical to rseq. The split axis is
operation-vs-registration, not name similarity.
No classification change, so mage generate is a no-op (generated artifacts
and docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md unchanged). Strengthened the rseq/
robust_list comments in family_test.go and the TestClassifyGetRobustListPidNotFd
lock-in comment in classify_test.go to cite the rule and mark the decision
resolved.

Audit of setuid(2) confirmed correct tracing classification:
- KindNull (single uid_t arg, never an fd or path)
- FamilyProcess (credential-setting, consistent with siblings)
- Unclassified exit ret (int 0/-1 status, not a byte count)
Add lock-in tests asserting the setuid enter (KindNull, no pathname
capture) and exit (KindRet, UNCLASSIFIED) classification, plus a
family assertion covering the credential-setting cluster
(setuid/setresuid/setreuid/setfsuid, the gid analogues, and the
getuid/geteuid/... readers).
Discovered out of scope: family.go omits seteuid/setegid from the
FamilyProcess list (they fall through to Misc), unlike their siblings.
These have no dedicated kernel tracepoints today, so it is latent;
tracked as follow-up task 620.

Audit of mknod(2) found the tracing implementation already correct:
sys_enter_mknod captures the real pathname from args[0] (no dirfd),
while the sibling sys_enter_mknodat captures it from args[1] (after
dirfd). Both are FamilyFS path_events; both exits are ret_event
UNCLASSIFIED (int 0/-1). No code or doc changes were needed.
Add lock-in tests guarding this behavior against regressions:
- TestGenerateMknodMknodatHandlers asserts the generated BPF C reads
the path from args[0] for mknod and args[1] for mknodat.
- FormatMknodat/FormatExitMknodat testdata mirroring the real
tracepoint layout (dfd pushes filename to args[1]).
- mknodat rows added to the classify kind (KindPathname) and family
(FamilyFS) test tables, matching the existing mknod coverage.

Audit of keyctl(2), add_key(2), request_key(2) confirmed the existing
tracing is correct: all three are KindKeyctl (operation + generic numeric
args captured via keyctl_event, no fd/path probe), live in FamilySecurity
alongside their *_key/landlock_*/lsm_*/seccomp siblings, and return an
operation-dependent value or -1 that is not a byte transfer (UNCLASSIFIED).
Add TestClassifyKeyctlAudit as a lock-in regression test, mirroring prior
audits: it asserts the Security family on both enter and exit names, the
UNCLASSIFIED return classification, and that add_key's const char *
type/description arguments are key metadata that must not trip the generic
pathname/open heuristics (PathnameField stays empty, kind stays KindKeyctl).

Audit of get_robust_list(2)/set_robust_list(2) found the existing
classification already correct and consistent across classify.go,
family.go, the generated C handlers, and docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md:
- enter is KindNull: args[0] of get_robust_list is a PID, not an fd,
and head_ptr/len_ptr are userspace output pointers (no fd/path), so
the pid must not be picked up as a file descriptor.
- exit is ret_event UNCLASSIFIED: both return 0/-1 with no byte count.
- family is Misc, grouped with the per-thread sibling rseq rather than
promoted to IPC like the futex_* shared-memory primitives.
Add TestClassifyGetRobustListPidNotFd pinning these invariants (Kind,
Family, Ret) plus a futex_* IPC contrast case, mirroring the prior
sched_getattr/recvmsg audit lock-in tests. No behavior change.
The IPC-vs-Misc family question for the robust-list pair is tracked as
a separate follow-up task, not changed here (no clear correctness case).

Audit of access(2) found the tracing implementation already correct:
FS family, KindPathname capturing the real path, and an UNCLASSIFIED
int 0/-1 ret_event on exit. access(2) captures its path from args[0]
(no dirfd), while siblings faccessat(2)/faccessat2(2) capture from
args[1] (dfd precedes the path). mage generate produces no diff and the
docs/integration coverage already match.
Add unit lock-in tests mirroring prior syscall audits:
- FormatAccess/FormatFaccessat tracepoint fixtures (real kernel formats).
- classify tests asserting both classify as KindPathname/"filename".
- family_test cluster asserting access/faccessat/faccessat2 stay FamilyFS.
- codegen test proving access reads ctx->args[0] while faccessat reads
ctx->args[1], guarding against a wrong-arg or dropped-path regression.

Audit of bare sync(2) per man 2 sync: void sync(void) takes no args and
returns no value. Confirmed it is correctly classified KindNull in
FamilyFS, its ret is UNCLASSIFIED, and — unlike noreturn exit/exit_group —
its exit handler IS emitted because sync does return (void != noreturn).
Docs and generated maps already match; no code or doc changes needed.
Add lock-in tests:
- TestGenerateSyncHandler: enter null_event with no arg capture (sync has
no args at all), live exit handler emitted, ret recorded UNCLASSIFIED.
- TestClassifyRetSyncUnclassified: meaningless void ret stays UNCLASSIFIED.
- TestSyncIsNotNoreturn: guards sync from the noreturn suppression list.
- Add sync (FamilyFS) to the family/exit-handler table test.

recvmsg(2) returns the number of bytes received, so its exit must be
READ_CLASSIFIED (bytes counted as read), matching recvfrom/recv/read/readv.
Audit confirmed the implementation is already correct: enter=KindFd off
the first 'fd' field (sockfd at args[0]), family=Network, exit=
READ_CLASSIFIED. Add a dedicated lock-in test mirroring the prior sendmsg
audit, with contrast cases guarding the easy mistakes: sendmsg is the
write-side sibling (WRITE_CLASSIFIED) and recvmmsg is the batch variant
whose scalar return is a message count, deferred to UNCLASSIFIED.

Audit of ioprio_set found a family inconsistency. ioprio_set(which, who,
ioprio) and ioprio_get(which, who) query/set the I/O scheduling class and
priority of a process, process group, or user. They are the direct
I/O-priority analogues of getpriority/setpriority (the CPU nice value) and
share the identical which/who selector signature, yet were falling through to
FamilyMisc while getpriority/setpriority are FamilyProcess.
Reclassify both ioprio syscalls to FamilyProcess for consistency with their
priority siblings, update docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md, and regenerate the
tracepoint/type artifacts (mage generate is idempotent).
Argument capture is unchanged and confirmed correct: the args are all ints
(which/who/ioprio), none named fd/path, so ClassifyFormat returns KindNone and
the generator promotes the enter format to KindNull (null_event). In
particular the 'who' argument (a pid/pgid/uid, never an fd) is not
misclassified as KindFd. The exit is a ret_event (UNCLASSIFIED, int 0/-1).
Add lock-in tests:
- TestClassifyIoprioNullKind asserts KindNone/KindNull using the real kernel
tracepoint fields, proving 'who' is not captured as an fd.
- Family assertions for the ioprio pair alongside getpriority/setpriority so a
stray reclassification of any of them trips the test.

Audit of fallocate(2) found the tracing correct and consistent with its
fd-based siblings, so add lock-in tests rather than fixing anything:
- fallocate(int fd, int mode, off_t offset, off_t len) returns int 0/-1
(a status code, NOT a transferred byte count). Its exit must stay a
plain ret_event with ret_type UNCLASSIFIED so it is never mistaken for
a READ/WRITE/TRANSFER byte count.
- The enter tracepoint carries a leading fd field (args[0]); only fd is
captured into a fd_event (KindFd), matching fadvise64/ftruncate/
sync_file_range which likewise drop their trailing offset/len/advice
args.
- fallocate belongs to FamilyFS alongside fadvise64/ftruncate/
sync_file_range.
TestClassifyFallocateEnterFd and TestClassifyExitFallocateUnclassifiedRet
assert the per-syscall behavior; TestClassifySyscallFamily now also
covers fallocate/fadvise64/ftruncate so a stray reclassification trips a
test. No classification logic or generated artifacts changed.

Audit of pwritev2(2) confirmed its tracing is already correct: enter is
KindFd (fd at args[0]), return is WRITE_CLASSIFIED so the byte count is
counted as written like its pwritev/writev/write/pwrite64 siblings, and
family is FS. Add a dedicated lock-in test pinning kind, family, and the
WRITE return classification, with the read-side preadv2 as a contrast and
the whole p/readv/writev family asserted together to guard against a
stray off-by-one reclassification.

Audit of init_module (man 2 init_module) confirmed the implementation is
correct: init_module(void *module_image, unsigned long len, const char
*param_values) is classified KindModule (null_event), capturing neither
an fd nor a path — param_values is a module-parameter string, not a
filesystem path. finit_module(int fd, ...) is classified KindFd via
field-based matching and captures fd = args[0]. Both syscalls live in the
Security family and match docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md.
No explicit finit_module test or init_module-vs-finit_module distinction
test existed, so add lock-in coverage:
- testdata.go: real-layout Format constants for (f)init_module enter/exit.
- classify_test.go: assert init_module=KindModule with no PathnameField
and finit_module=KindFd.
- codegen_test.go: assert generated BPF C for init_module captures no fd
and no filename/path, while finit_module captures fd = args[0].

Audit of syncfs(2) confirmed the existing tracing is correct: single fd
arg (fd=args[0], KindFd), FamilyFS like its fsync/fdatasync/
sync_file_range siblings, and an int 0/-1 return that stays Unclassified
(plain ret_event). No code or generated artifacts changed.
Add lock-in tests so a stray reclassification trips CI:
- TestClassifySyncFamilyFdSyscallsByName: enter -> KindFd for the
fsync/fdatasync/syncfs/sync_file_range group.
- TestClassifyExitSyncfs: exit -> KindRet.
- sync-family FamilyFS assertions in TestClassifySyncallFamily.
- syncfs added to the ret-UNCLASSIFIED list.

utime(2) and utimes(2) change a file's access/modification times by a real
filesystem path (filename at args[0]). The path was already captured
(KindPathname), but both syscalls fell through to FamilyMisc instead of
joining their siblings utimensat/futimesat in FamilyFS. Add them to
fsSyscalls and regenerate; the only generated change is trace IDs
1034-1037 flipping FamilyMisc -> FamilyFS.
Lock-in coverage:
- family_test.go asserts utime/utimes/utimensat/futimesat are all FamilyFS.
- classify_test.go + FormatUtime fixture assert utime is KindPathname with
PathnameField "filename" (path captured even though it is a char* string,
unlike domain/host name args).
- New ioworkload scenarios utime-basic/utimes/enoent and integration tests
TestUtimeBasic/Utimes/Enoent verify the path is captured at runtime,
including on the ENOENT error path.
Docs updated: moved utime/utimes from Misc to FS in
docs/syscall-tracing-plan.md to keep the drift tests green.

Audit of sendmsg(2) found the tracing implementation already correct:
enter is an fd_event with fd=args[0] (the kernel tracepoint first field
is 'int fd'), family is Network, and the exit is WRITE_CLASSIFIED so the
bytes-sent return value is counted as written, consistent with the
send/sendto/write siblings and distinct from recvmsg (read side) and the
deferred sendmmsg batch variant.
Add TestClassifySendmsgWriteByteCount as a lock-in regression test
pinning KindFd + FamilyNetwork + WRITE_CLASSIFIED, with recvmsg and
sendmmsg contrast cases to guard against read/write and batch
misclassification.

Audit of sched_getattr confirmed it is correctly classified as
FamilySched + KindNull, consistent with its siblings (sched_setattr,
sched_getparam, sched_getscheduler). The syscall's first argument is a
pid_t (a process/thread id), not a file descriptor, and the kernel
tracepoint field is named "pid" rather than "fd", so the fd heuristic
never applies; the name-only classification table also short-circuits
before any field inspection.
Add TestClassifySchedGetattrPidNotFd as a regression guard that pins
KindNull and FamilySched using the real kernel field layout, explicitly
asserting the pid arg is never treated as an fd, plus sibling
consistency. No behavior or generated-artifact changes (mage generate
produces no diff).

The Linux Security Module introspection syscalls lsm_list_modules,
lsm_get_self_attr and lsm_set_self_attr (Linux 6.8+) were classified as
FamilyMisc while every sibling LSM/security syscall (landlock_*, keyctl,
add_key, request_key, seccomp) is FamilySecurity. This audited
inconsistency is fixed by adding the three lsm_* entries to the
syscallFamilies map; their kind stays KindNull (args are userspace
pointers + flags, no fd/path) and the exit remains a ret_event.
Docs (syscall-tracing-plan.md) updated accordingly, generated artifacts
regenerated via mage generate, and lock-in family assertions added to
TestClassifySyscallPairEmitsAllFamilies.

Audit of setdomainname(2): its first arg is a const char *name, but that
name is the NIS/YP domain-name string, not a filesystem path. The name-only
classification table pins it to KindNull, which short-circuits before the
field-based path heuristic that would otherwise treat a const char *name arg
as KindPathname. Classification, family (Misc), docs, and existing tests all
already matched; this adds a dedicated lock-in test asserting KindNull, an
empty PathnameField, and kind+family parity with the sibling sethostname.

exit and exit_group never return to userspace, so their sys_exit
tracepoints can never fire. The generator previously emitted matching
EXIT_RET_EVENT handlers anyway, producing dead code in the generated BPF
program. classifySyscall now skips exit-handler emission for noreturn
syscalls via isNoreturnSyscall, and the regenerated artifacts drop the
sys_exit_exit / sys_exit_exit_group handlers (enter handlers are kept).
Tests updated to match the new reality:
- TestGenerateExitNoreturnHandlers asserts no exit handler is emitted.
- TestClassifySyscallPairEmitsAllFamilies exempts noreturn syscalls from
the exit-handler-required assertion while staying strict for all others.

Audit of the getpeername(2) syscall confirmed the tracing pipeline already
matches the man page: FamilyNetwork + KindFd (sockfd at args[0]) on enter, and
a plain ret_event (int 0/-1) on exit. The enter classification was already
covered by TestClassifySocketFdSyscallsByName, but the exit path (resolved via
the generic 'ret' field matcher) had no dedicated assertion. Add
TestClassifyExitGetpeername to pin sys_exit_getpeername -> KindRet so future
classifier changes cannot silently regress it.

close_range was captured as a single-fd fd_event carrying only first, so
the runtime evicted every tracked fd >= first, ignoring the last upper
bound and the flags. Bounded calls wrongly dropped still-open higher fds,
and CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC (which keeps fds open) was treated as a full close.
Reclassify close_range to the two_fd_event kind, mapping fd_a/fd_b/extra to
first/last/flags. The runtime now closes only the inclusive [first, last]
range (a negative last from ~0U means unbounded) and skips eviction when
CLOSE_RANGE_CLOEXEC is set or the syscall fails.
