Every call the shm* syscall (SHM column) is displayed
on separate line together with process info (PID/COMM
columns) and argument details: return value (RET column)
and syscall arguments (ARGs column).
The ARGs column contains 'arg: value' couples that represent
given syscall arguments as described in their manpage.
It supports standard options to filter on pid/tid,
to specify duration of the trace and command name
filter, like:
./shmsnoop # trace all shm*() syscalls
./shmsnoop -T # include timestamps
./shmsnoop -p 181 # only trace PID 181
./shmsnoop -t 123 # only trace TID 123
./shmsnoop -d 10 # trace for 10 seconds only
./shmsnoop -n main # only print process names containing "main"

+.TH shmsnoop 8 "2018-09-24" "USER COMMANDS"
+.SH NAME
+shmsnoop \- Trace System V shared memory syscalls. Uses Linux eBPF/bcc.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B shmsnoop [\-h] [\-T] [\-p] [\-t] [\-d DURATION] [\-n NAME]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+shmsnoop traces System V shared memory syscalls: shmget, shmat, shmdt, shmctl
+
+Since this uses BPF, only the root user can use this tool.
+.SH REQUIREMENTS
+CONFIG_BPF and bcc.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+\-h
+Print usage message.
+.TP
+\-T
+Include a timestamp column.
+.TP
+\-p PID
+Trace this process ID only (filtered in-kernel).
+.TP
+\-t TID
+Trace this thread ID only (filtered in-kernel).
+.TP
+\-d DURATION
+Total duration of trace in seconds.
+.TP
+\-n NAME
+Only print command lines matching this command name (regex)
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.TP
+Trace all shm* syscalls:
+#
+.B shmsnoop
+.TP
+Trace all shm* syscalls, and include timestamps:
+#
+.B shmsnoop \-T
+.TP
+Only trace shm* syscalls where the process contains "server":
+#
+.B shmsnoop \-n server
+.SH FIELDS
+.TP
+TIME(s)
+Time of shm syscall return, in seconds.
+.TP
+PID
+Process ID
+.TP
+COMM
+Parent process/command name.
+.TP
+RET
+Return value of shm syscall.
+.TP
+ARGS
+"arg: value" couples that represent given syscall arguments as described in
their manpage
+.SH SOURCE
+This is from bcc.
+.IP
+https://github.com/iovisor/bcc
+.PP
+Also look in the bcc distribution for a companion _examples.txt file containing
+example usage, output, and commentary for this tool.
+.SH OS
+Linux
+.SH STABILITY
+Unstable - in development.

shmflg: 0x3b6 (IPC_CREAT|0666)

+
+Every call the shm* syscall (SHM column) is displayed
+on separate line together with process info (PID/COMM

+and syscall arguments (ARGs column).
+
+The ARGs column contains 'arg: value' couples that represent

+
+This works by tracing shm* system calls and sending
+argument details to the python script.
+
+A -T option can be used to include a timestamp column,
+and a -n option to match on a command name. Regular
+expressions are allowed. For example, matching commands
+containing "server" with timestamps:
+
+# ./shmsnoop.py -T -n server
+TIME(s) PID COMM SYS RET ARGs
+0.563194000 19825 server SHMDT 0 shmaddr:

+0.563237000 19825 server SHMCTL 0 shmid: 0x18000,
cmd: 0, buf: 0x0
+
+
+A -p option can be used to trace only selected process:
+
+# ./shmsnoop.py -p 19855
+PID COMM SYS RET ARGs
+19855 server SHMDT 0 shmaddr: 0x7f4329ff8000
+19855 server SHMCTL 0 shmid: 0x20000, cmd: 0, buf:

+
+USAGE message:
+# ./shmsnoop.py -h
+usage: shmsnoop.py [-h] [-T] [-p PID] [-t TID] [-d DURATION] [-n NAME]
+
+Trace shm*() syscalls
+
+optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -T, --timestamp include timestamp on output
+ -p PID, --pid PID trace this PID only
+ -t TID, --tid TID trace this TID only
+ -d DURATION, --duration DURATION
+ total duration of trace in seconds
+ -n NAME, --name NAME only print process names containing this name
+
+examples:
+ ./shmsnoop # trace all shm*() syscalls
+ ./shmsnoop -T # include timestamps
+ ./shmsnoop -p 181 # only trace PID 181
+ ./shmsnoop -t 123 # only trace TID 123
+ ./shmsnoop -d 10 # trace for 10 seconds only
+ ./shmsnoop -n main # only print process names containing "main"
