System Calls

Monday, February 20, 2006 by digitalpeer

Patch-free User-level Link-time intercepting of system calls and interposing on library functions is an interesting tutorial. However, it lacks the elegance i'm looking for. It's pretty much a compile time hack. Is there a better solution for user level interception of system calls? Zzlib offers an API that requires you to use their parallel POSIX file I/O calls, but it will automatically forward those calls to the system calls if the file is not a zip archive. I bet they really want what I'm looking for too.
