Making Socket System Call From Linux Kernel Module?

Hi Everyone! How can we make a socket() system call from a linux module executing in kernel space? If any one knows, kindly tell me. It will be great. I want to use the socket interface in linux kernel space for sending raw packets over the network. Hamayun

kernel-kernel call communication

hi all! i have developed a mechanism in system.c to count how many times each kernel call is called. The results are held in an array in system.c . What i want to do is to create a new kernel call which will print this array. I need help in passing the array from system.c to the new kernel call. ...

how implement a kernel call?

Hi, I would like o implement a kernel call, but I don't know how to do it. Where can I find an example? I've already look to minix source code, but I'm still confused and not very comfortable to mess with the code at this level. Thanks,

Applescript application call problem...

Hi all... I am trying to create a shell project purely for this Macbook Pro. I do NOT want to use SOX as the sampling _source_ but Quicktime instead, the idea being that NO third party installs will be needed. The code below works fine except the commented out Applescript line does not do...

Problem with lseek call.

The following code: int fd; if (fd = open("mem", O_RDONLY) == -1) return 1; if (lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET) == -1) { char *buf = malloc(512); buf = strerror(errno); printf("%s\n", buf); return 1; } always returns with "illegal seek"...

DECLARE_MODULE(9)					   BSD Kernel Developer's Manual					 DECLARE_MODULE(9)

NAME

     DECLARE_MODULE -- kernel module declaration macro

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/kernel.h>
     #include <sys/module.h>

     DECLARE_MODULE(name, moduledata_t data, sub, order);

DESCRIPTION

     The DECLARE_MODULE() macro declares a generic kernel module.  It is used to register the module with the system, using the SYSINIT() macro.
     DECLARE_MODULE() is usually used within other macros, such as DRIVER_MODULE(9), DEV_MODULE(9) and SYSCALL_MODULE(9).  Of course, it can also
     be called directly, for example in order to implement dynamic sysctls.

     The arguments it expects are:

     name    The module name, which will be used in the SYSINIT() call to identify the module.

     data    A moduledata_t structure, which contains two main items, the official name of the module name, which will be used in the module_t
	     structure and a pointer to the event handler function of type modeventhand_t.

     sub     An argument directed to the SYSINIT() macro.  Valid values for this are contained in the sysinit_sub_id enumeration (see
	     <sys/kernel.h>) and specify the type of system startup interfaces.  The DRIVER_MODULE(9) macro uses a value of SI_SUB_DRIVERS here
	     for example, since these modules contain a driver for a device.  For kernel modules that are loaded at runtime, a value of
	     SI_SUB_EXEC is common.

     order   An argument for SYSINIT().  It represents the KLDs order of initialization within the subsystem.  Valid values are defined in the
	     sysinit_elem_order enumeration (<sys/kernel.h>).
