FWIW, the need for hooks in the kernel goes beyond security concerns. I'm following this thread with much interest as I have a need for hooks to implement serviceability function for the enterprise customer space. In formulating your requirements you might also consider whether there's a wider need and therefore support for what your doing. If in then end the argument for hooks is won, particulary in the form that I believe #2 advocates, then it would be a pity if we end up with multiple implementations for different purposes or worse still have to rework hook functions for a new standard. And BTW this is a vote for #2. Richard J.
