Question about semaphore


I am now learning about semaphore. I would like to know how to lock the semaphore of the mm in the task_struct during most of the time of system call?

I'm a bit confused as to what you are asking.
You seem to be talking about kernel space, but I'm not sure.
Are you trying to implement a new system call within the kernel?
