Is it possible to redefine a system call using loadable modules? What I
would like to do is something like a DOS isr, except with syscalls
instead of interrupt services - that is, do xyz in the module, then call
the original system call.

Anyone know if it is possible/not possible and better yet, have source
demonstrating it? Please CC me any replies as I dont read linux-kernel.
(well, I'm on the digest, but it does not appear to actually work).
