Dynamic loading
How one should implement a dynamic loading system where instead of loading an entire library to the memory, the kernel would load only the necessary function?
Considering that each function have a hash id (md5 maybe) from its binary format, where each application using that function only point to the hash. The system would load the function from a functions repository and checking it's id against the hash sum, when it's not found on the local filesystem.
Would it be necessary to mess with kernel code in order to implement this?
