 When A is removed, it sees that the system call was changed to \cpp|B_openat| so that it is no longer pointing to \cpp|A_openat|, so it will not restore it to \cpp|sys_openat| before it is removed from memory.
 Unfortunately, \cpp|B_openat| will still try to call \cpp|A_openat| which is no longer there, so that even without removing B the system would crash.
 
+For x86 architecture, the system call table cannot be used to invoke a system call after commit

+This commit has been backported to long term stable kernels, like v5.15.154+, v6.1.85+, v6.6.26+ and v6.8.5+, see this \href{https://stackoverflow.com/a/78607015}{answer} for more details.
+In this case, thanks to Kprobes, a hook can be used instead on the system call entry to intercept the system call.

 Note that all the related problems make syscall stealing unfeasible for production use.
 In order to keep people from doing potential harmful things \cpp|sys_call_table| is no longer exported.
 This means, if you want to do something more than a mere dry run of this example, you will have to patch your current kernel in order to have \cpp|sys_call_table| exported.
