Hi,
I'm trying to write a kernel module for
my final year project. The kernel module needs
to communicate with a user space program. The
link needs to be two way. How do I go about this?
I know you can use pipes, fifos, ipc, semaphores
and shared memory between user processes,
but are any of those available to the kernel?
Thanks,
Steve
