Abstract
The disclosed embodiments disclose techniques for leveraging instrumentation capabilities to enable monitoring services. During operation, an operating system kernel is instrumented to associate a sub-program with a target operation. Upon receiving a request from an application to perform the target operation, the operating system kernel executes the sub-program with kernel privileges in the process context of the application. The sub-program analyzes the memory space associated with the application to extract a desired data value. This extracted data value is returned to at least one of a specified target process or target location.
