good afternoon,

I'm searching for a way to trace/intercept syscalls, both before and after execution. "ptrace" is not an option (you probably know why).

Does strace do what you are asking for?

as I said, "ptrace" is not an option.

Why not, exactly? (No, we don't know why). ptrace is _the_ Linux mechanism to trace and intercept syscalls. There is no other way.
