Analysing System Call Strace file?


Hi, my question is how to begin analysing the System Calls output created by strace? I was able to pass:
Code:
strace -o /tmp/strace.log journalctl -b
which created a large 24 Megabyte file. looking through the output in the terminal there are many errors shown in red or yellow text. When opening the logfile with Kate the visual dynamics of the file change completely. My question for you is what should I begin to do in order to analyze and correct some of this System Call output? Hopefully, causing the installed applications and hardware to operate better on the machine? I have attached the strace output file strace.tar.gz to this post for further review.

-Regards

Seems like yet another example of the xyproblem.

Go read that, then decide what your real problem is. Explain to us how strace on journalctl will help you solve your problem, and what data you need from the output to do that.
Then maybe somebody here will have an idea of how to assist.
