the sys call table is not un-exported for license-political reasons. It's unexported because there is no correct use for it and that it can't be used correctly either. Tell me which lock your module uses to protect modifications to it? Tell me how you handle other modules trying to overload the same syscall and those modules loading before your module but then unloading while yours is still loaded?
It's the wrong mechanism to do ANYTHING. Really. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
