Can we use strace to trace the read/write in kilo bytes between user space and kernel space for a particular process?

Hi, neat information. I just wanted to clarify (8 years later) that the example command you provided won't really work. There is no command there so strace does not start:

[14:22 jordi ~]$ strace /dev/null/
strace: Can't stat '/dev/null/': Not a directory

Instead, ¡strace ls /dev/null' will return the results you were looking for.

you can use strace for anything even for running processes just use the -p flag and I would also reccomend using the -o flag as this will dump the strace to a file which you can grep/sed/awk later
