How to hook the system call?

Hi,
I have tried the LSM framework,but when I make my module , I got
"waining:'register_security' undefined", then I check security/security.c
and found out that register_security is not exported ! So if I want to use
this function ,I must hack kernel by exporting and recompiling kernel which
is allowed for me.
So ...well, it seems that LSM doesn't work for module without modifying the
kernel source.
