From 9f46080c41d5f3f7c00b4e169ba4b0b2865258bf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Helsley Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2005 00:59:16 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Process Events Connector This patch adds a connector that reports fork, exec, id change, and exit events for all processes to userspace. It replaces the fork_advisor patch that ELSA is currently using. Applications that may find these events useful include accounting/auditing (e.g. ELSA), system activity monitoring (e.g. top), security, and resource management (e.g. CKRM).
