How about implementing some kind of "program interpreter" which
- analogous to what /lib/ld.so.1 does for ELF executables and libs -
the process of searching the path, security issues, /etc/ld.so.cache
style cache for faster searching the patch etc? This approach would
be more flexible than a kernelspace implementation though slighly
less performant.
One could piggyback that onto the kerneld mechanism, I think. But it
is not clear how one would use it. Do you have any ideas in mind?
