🛠 IPCDUMP

A tool for tracing interprocess communication (IPC) on Linux. It covers most of the common IPC mechanisms -- pipes, fifos, signals, unix sockets, loopback-based networking, and pseudoterminals. It's a useful tool for debugging multi-process applications, and it's also a simple way to understand how the different moving parts in your system communicate with one another. ipcdump can trace both the metadata and the contents of this communication, and it's particularly well-suited to tracing IPC between short-lived processes, which can be difficult using traditional debugging tools, like strace or gdb. It also has some basic filtering capabilities to help you sift through large quantities of events.
