Thank you... So open is one of those critical functions right? I mean, I cannot do away if open were not present... The reason I was wondering is because there are so many file operations defined that open seemed to be that "i cannot live without it" like functions to me... Please correct me if I'm wrong...

Hi Friends,
Every I try to open a vi window vim help.txt automatically opens evertime.
After doing ZZ or :q! also the same page opens automatically.
How to stop this? Is it machine specific ? Other users who are opening the same servers and files are not facing this issue.
Thanks... (1 Reply)

ausyscall
AUSYSCALL:(8) System Administration Utilities AUSYSCALL:(8)
NAME
ausyscall - a program that allows mapping syscall names and numbers
SYNOPSIS
ausyscall [arch] name | number | --dump | --exact
DESCRIPTION
ausyscall is a program that prints out the mapping from syscall name to number and reverse for the given arch. The arch can be anything
returned by `uname -m`. If arch is not given, the program will take a guess based on the running image. You may give the syscall name or
number and it will find the opposite. You can also dump the whole table with the --dump option. By default a syscall name lookup will be a
substring match meaning that it will try to match all occurrences of the given name with syscalls. So giving a name of chown will match
both fchown and chown as any other syscall with chown in its name. If this behavior is not desired, pass the --exact flag and it will do an
exact string match.
This program can be used to verify syscall numbers on a biarch platform for rule optimization. For example, suppose you had an auditctl
rule:
-a always, exit -S open -F exit=-EPERM -k fail-open
If you wanted to verify that both 32 and 64 bit programs would be audited, run "ausyscall i386 open" and then "ausyscall x86_64 open". Look
at the returned numbers. If they are different, you will have to write two auditctl rules to get complete coverage.
-a always,exit -F arch=b32 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -k fail-open
-a always,exit -F arch=b64 -S open -F exit=-EPERM -k fail-open
For more information about a specific syscall, use the man program and pass the number 2 as an argument to make sure that you get the
syscall information rather than a shell script program or glibc function call of the same name. For example, if you wanted to learn about
the open syscall, type: man 2 open.
OPTIONS
--dump Print all syscalls for the given arch
--exact
Instead of doing a partial word match, match the given syscall name exactly.
