+.Sh NAME
+.Nm filemon
+.Nd the filemon device
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In dev/filemon/filemon.h
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+device allows a process to collect file operations data of its children.
+The device
+.Pa /dev/filemon
+responds to two
+.Xr ioctl 2
+calls.
+.Pp
+System calls are denoted using the following single letters:
+.Bl -tag -width indent -compact
+.It Dq Li C
+.Xr chdir 2
+.It Dq Li D
+.Xr unlink 2
+.It Dq Li E
+.Xr exec 2
+.It Dq Li F
+.Xr fork 2 ,
+.Xr vfork 2
+.It Dq Li L
+.Xr link 2 ,
+.Xr linkat 2 ,
+.Xr symlink 2 ,
+.Xr symlinkat 2
+.It Dq Li M
+.Xr rename 2
+.It Dq Li R
+.Xr open 2
+for read
+.It Dq Li S
+.Xr stat 2
+.It Dq Li W
+.Xr open 2
+for write
+.It Dq Li X
+.Xr _exit 2
+.El
+.Pp
+Note that
+.Dq R
+following
+.Dq W
+records can represent a single
+.Xr open 2
+for R/W,
+or two seperate
+.Xr open 2
+calls, one for
+R
+and one for
+W.
+.Sh IOCTLS
+User mode programs communicate with the filemon driver through a
+number of ioctls which are described below.
+Each takes a single argument.
+.Bl -tag -width FILEMON_SET_PID
+.It Dv FILEMON_SET_FD
+Write the internal tracing buffer to the supplied open file descriptor.
+.It Dv FILEMON_SET_PID .
+Child process ID to trace.
+.El
+.Pp
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+The ioctl returns zero on success and non-zero on failure.
