Help with counting user system calls in Minix 3

Hello, I need some help editing some Minix kernel files. I want to implement a process field that counts how many times each process makes any kind of system call. Then I'd like to print this field for all processes after hitting F8.

Any kind of assistance would be helpful. Thank you!
