How much overhead does it add to write("/dev/null", "", 1) ?
You've two large jump tables.
One for the syscall entry - (all the syscalls have the
same prototype), and a second for selecting the correct
device driver's 'write' entry point.
You really don't want to be doing any kind of search.
Hardware that supported a (say) 16-bit constant in both the
'landing pad' and call indirect instruction and trapped if
they differed would be useful - but I doubt any hardware
that checks landing pads is anywhere near that useful.
David.
