Kernel code is not application code. You don't have printf() in the kernel. The concept of 'standard output' doesn't even exist inside the kernel.
You might try kprintf(), which is similar. I think it ends up printing to the system log.
If it's giving you warnings about the wrong kind of pointer, you might try casting the pointer into a (void *).

If one wants to get a start address of a array or a string or a block of memory via a function, there are at least two methods to achieve it:
(1) one is to pass a pointer-to-pointer parameter, like:

{
*pmem=(char *)malloc(size);
if(*pmem==NULL)... (11 Replies)

xs::apitest
XS::APItest(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide XS::APItest(3pm)
NAME
XS::APItest - Test the perl C API
SYNOPSIS
use XS::APItest;
print_double(4);
ABSTRACT
This module tests the perl C API. Currently tests that "printf" works correctly.
DESCRIPTION
This module can be used to check that the perl C API is behaving correctly. This module provides test functions and an associated test
script that verifies the output.
This module is not meant to be installed.
EXPORT
Exports all the test functions:
print_double
Test that a double-precision floating point number is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_double( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_long_double
Test that a "long double" is formatted correctly by "printf". Takes no arguments - the test value is hard-wired into the function (as
"7").
print_long_double();
Output is sent to STDOUT.
have_long_double
Determine whether a "long double" is supported by Perl. This should be used to determine whether to test "print_long_double".
print_long_double() if have_long_double;
print_nv
Test that an "NV" is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_nv( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_iv
Test that an "IV" is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_iv( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_uv
Test that an "UV" is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_uv( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_int
Test that an "int" is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_int( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_long
Test that an "long" is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_long( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
print_float
Test that a single-precision floating point number is formatted correctly by "printf".
print_float( $val );
Output is sent to STDOUT.
