i would like to add more checks (e.g., resource usage restrictions) before a file is being created, e.g., the upper limit of the total number of file descriptors that can be created by a single user (the same uid). THe reason I did not replace fopen() is that: there are many places (besides fopen) will create a new file (vnode). a quick checked shows that _falloc_ is called by many places.. does this make sense, or i should make change in some other place?
