Assignee: RED HAT, INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 7:
8. A method comprising:
receiving, by a processor, tracing data indicating system calls executed by a plurality of software services;
analyzing, by the processor, the tracing data to detect a first system call that is associated with a predefined starting event;
analyzing, by the processor, the tracing data to detect a second system call that is associated with a predefined ending event;
after detecting the first system call and the second system call in the tracing data, analyzing, by the processor, the tracing data to determine a subset of the system calls between the first system call and the second system call;
after determining the subset of the system calls between the first system call and the second system call, analyzing, by the processor, parameters of the subset of the system calls to determine relationships between the subset of the system calls, the parameters being different than timestamps of the subset of the system calls;
determining, by the processor, a sequence of the subset of the system calls based on the determined relationships between the subset of the system calls; and
generating, by the processor, an output for a user indicating the sequence of the subset of the system calls, the output being usable by the user to troubleshoot a problem associated with executing the plurality of software services.
