Abstract
1.1. Terminology Many contemporary operating systems utilize a system Many contemporary operating systems provide an call interface between the operating system and its clients. interface between user code and the operating system Increasing numbers of systems are providing low-level services based on special "system calls". One can view mechanisms for intercepting and handling system calls in the system interface as simply a special form of structured user code. Nonetheless, they typically provide no higher- communication channel on which messages are sent, level tools or abstractions for effectively utilizing these allowing such operations as interposing programs that mechanisms. Using them has typically required record or modify the communications that take place on reimplementation of a substantial portion of the system this channel. In this paper, such a program that both uses interface from scratch, making the use of such facilities and provides the system interface will be refe...
