I'm looking to modify the flags for open(2) without having to recompile the kernel.
I have modified the source code to change the flags, but having to recompile is a pain.
Is there a way to create a module, so that when I call open(2) I can pass in new flags "on the fly"?
I've seen where a program can intercept a system call and do something with existing flags; however, if I don't have the new flags, then I won't know if I should do anything with the interception.
I don't think it is possible, because of linking; however, I don't know.
