PID Monitor Advanced – A Lightweight Linux Process Inspector
As part of my recent work in systems observability and Linux internals, I’ve built a Rust-based tool called PrIDamoN ( PID Monitor). I t's a lightweight and efficient process inspection utility for modern Linux environments. It's my second project around the Linux Kernel that has been written by Rust language, with concern on monitoring a specific Linux process to get some important information about it. Although it's just published as a high-performance Linux process inspector, so I will continue its development procedure. This tool allows you to: Inspect any running process by PID View UID, PPID, children, and exact start time Fetch recent journal logs linked to the process (journalctl) Monitor system calls in real time using ptrace Save structured reports to disk (/tmp directory) Built with performance and portability in mind using Rust , tokio , and nix , it’s designed to be easy to deploy and safe to run...
