Whether I can get one list of Linux system call arguments and their type by strace?

[Pengfei Sun]

Hi Philippe,

Thanks for your suggestion. I also think the best source you say is the
best, but I don't work out good code to collect them. If list them in
manually, it is huge work. I think the posix-omni-parser project will be
helpful. I just try them, there are some errors. I will check the details
and give you feedback.

Thank you very much!

Best Regards,
Pengfei
