AimTux VS the_silver_searcher

ofc there are. I remember there being a open source cheat for csgo for example. I think csgo did not had any kind of anticheat on linux at the time and people took advantage of it. Luckily this specific cheat seems to be deprecated, but just look at the forks and stars to get an idea: https://github.com/AimTuxOfficial/AimTux

Where is your counter argument? A four year old thread is far from evidence that VAC doesn’t work on Linux… Aimtux was once a popular cheat that only works on Linux: https://github.com/AimTuxOfficial/AimTux/ it literally says here: “This hack is detected.” For the hack to be detected it must mean only one thing VAC works on Linux.

If you have trouble finding it among the other stuff happening in the server log, well, so do I! I recommend learning how to programmatically search through your terminal output. Providing a universal method for this is challenging because various tools and terminal emulators implement this functionality differently. Another option would be to use tools like grep or the_silver_searcher (a favorite of mine) to search the file where your dev logs are written to. This file is located at log/development.log in a Rails project.

Some of the examples below use ag, but could just as well use grep or equivalent.

Why guess when [there are installation instructions for various platforms on the README](https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher#installing)?

Also, although it may not be easy to remember, is this really a problem in practice given the installation count in most contexts is one? If there's a context where it's installed regularly, that's a one-time addition to an install script, Dockerfile, etc. in my experience. Do you have a situation that isn't amenable to that?

The kernel changes a lot, so the books would get outdated quickly. But you can find simple / similar drivers, and read the code. Usually there are some documentation / comments on the headers before the function declarations. The Elixir and the Silver Searcher will help a lot.

My "vim" way of finding all the places where a function is being used: using visual mode, marking the function, and passing it to :Ag (silversearcher) The problem with this is that it is not 100% accurate, since it will just look for things with the same name, so I was thinking about using the LSP to make things more robust.

We're fans of ag, The Silver Searcher.

Helm-ag is an interface to the ag, silver-searcher, so check the docs for ag. For example, ag automatically ignore some files if there is a .gitignore with some file patterns, or you could use .agignore.
