for some architectures this isnt going to work. for instance the
ia64 has a readonly syscall table. when it attempts to patch the
syscall table you get a panic. i keep forgetting to send a "patch"
for this (it just disable patching the syscall table if you are ia64).
from arch/ia64/kernel/entry.S:
.rodata
.align 8
.globl sys_call_table
sys_call_table:
data8 sys_ni_syscall // This must be sys_ni_syscall! See
ivt.S.
data8 sys_exit // 1025
data8 sys_read
data8 sys_write
data8 sys_open
i doubt we can convince the lkml to make the syscall table writeable.
