I will check the source of this tool/module......
But, curious: You mean, one can not legally add a new syscall or hook?
This process as such does not use/modify the kernel source....
Regards,
Raj.

Is the module open-source? If not, you run the risk of violating the
kernel's GPL license (binary-only modules are OK but only as long as
they use "standard" kernel interfaces; planting a syscall-hook goes
beyond that).
