I'm making a little progress in identifying the unknown syscalls. It often helps if you are not so cold and remember to look for a log...
The failed call below is root doing a grep. I do not know why it failed. The PPID is a bash shell. Any good docs available to explain the codes?grep SYSCALL audit.log | grep "success=no" | tail -1
