i would like to add more checks (e.g., resource usage
restrictions) before a file is being created, e.g.,
the upper limit of the total number of file
descriptors that can be created by a single user (the
same uid).
THe reason I did not replace fopen() is that:
there are many places (besides fopen) will create a
new file (vnode). a quick checked shows that _falloc_
is called by many places..
does this make sense, or i should make change in some
other place?
THanks!
