Shortly speaking:

Which kernel function will be invoked when I run: cat /proc/net/dev ?

i think you have to look into linux-2.6/net/core/dev.c (v2.6.30-rc6) 

thanks & regards

        Hi Folks,
        
        I'm looking for a function which is called when /proc/net/dev
        file is read. Member read_proc in proc_dir_entry for this file
        is set to NULL so I guess it must use seq_file interface but I
        can't find where it is initialized. 
        
        Idea is to overwrite existing function responsible for reading
        this file to hide particular network traffic.
        
        Thanks in advance.
        
        Regards,
        Mariusz Ziulek
