A ptrace-based recording tool that intercepts every syscall made by a process tree — file reads, writes, forks, execves — and stores the full trace in a DuckDB database. File writes can be redirected to a content-addressed store for reproducible builds and sandboxed execution.
How BuildInfer uses ptrace to record system calls during a build, analyse the resulting event log, and automatically generate Buck or Bazel build files — demonstrated on LLVM, OpenCV, and Mapnik.
