ProcMon-for-Linux by Microsoft is an open-source port of the legendary Windows Sysinternals Process Monitor, adapted for Linux environments. It captures and displays real-time syscall activities—alongside process/thread details—in an interactive terminal interface. With filtering capabilities, full thread stack capture, logging to SQLite, and event replay, it offers powerful visibility into system behavior. Currently distributed as a preview release (up to v2.0 on Linux), it supports Ubuntu 18.04 kernels 4.18–5.3 with plans to expand compatibility across more distributions.

Features

  • Real-time syscall and process tracing
  • Non-destructive filters to focus on relevant events
  • Full thread stack capture for each syscall
  • Log and replay events via SQLite trace files
  • Headless mode with log export (e.g. procmon -c file.db)
  • Interactive TUI for analysis and event filtering
