Subject: Link time manipulation of kernel symbols like read/write

Hi folks,
Is it possible to wrap module entry points like open/close during the
module compilation?
By wrapping, I mean interposing using linker --wrap option. This is
very much possible in
user space and is commonly used to interpose library functions.
E.g.
void *
__wrap_malloc (int c)
{
printf ("malloc called with %ld\n", c);
return __real_malloc (c);
}
int main()
{
malloc(17);
return 0;
}
Above works expected, can we wrap kmalloc this way?
-Leo.
