</span>If you are looking for something to code that does not require deep<br>
knowledge of strace internals, there are at least two areas that come<br>
to mind:<br>
<br>
1. Extending strace test coverage. We are just over 50% according to<br>
<a href="https://codecov.io/github/strace/strace" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://codecov.io/github/strace/strace</a>, practical test coverage is<br>
probably a bit less because some code paths executed during "make check"<br>
are not really covered by tests.<br>
<br>
2. Extending -e trace=class syntax with new classes. strace currently<br>
supports desc, file, ipc, memory, network, process, and signal.<br>
Additional classes might be useful, e.g. all open-like syscalls,<br>
all stat-like syscalls, all syscalls dealing with uid/gid, etc.<br>

</span>A portable strace? Have you released it as a free software?<br>
