Patent attributes
Embodiments of the invention include systems for testing pre and post system call exits. Aspects include executing a first test case comprises system calls and the first test case initializes a common buffer and stores system call parameters for each of the system calls. A monitoring test case is executed comprising: a pre-exit instruction that is inserted before each system call in the first test case. A post-exit instruction is inserted after each of the system calls in the first test case. Execution of the pre-exit instruction is determined prior to an execution of each system call. A first bit location is set in the common buffer to one, based on determining the pre-exit instruction executes. The system call is executed and execution of the post-exit instruction is determined. A second bit location in the common buffer is set to one based on determining that the post-exit instruction executes.
