To be able to do that i need the address of the function.

I've seen that from user space i can read /proc/kallsyms to get an address of a symbol. Is their any similar mechanism exist where i can read the symbol table to extract a symbol's address from kernel space?

check http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.6.8/include/linux/kallsyms.h

I have a good guess, what you need is kallsyms_on_each_symbol()

Thanks for the pointer. I'm testing what can be done. -- Cheers arif
