Please don't top post...

Another step you can try is by hooking directly to the syscall
function itself. I mean, let's say you want to hook fork, then IIRC
you can hook the do_fork(). You may use kprobe for this need (if you
enable it in your current kernel). Or you may try to explore ftrace's
function hook.

Have fun ....
