SV: Using a FILE


I am definitly a kernel newbie myself.

But,
I think "FILE *file" as in filestreams is provided by libc/glibc, and
therefor cannot be used from within the kernel.
You do not have access to userspace functions from kernelspace.

So, my answer is that you can't use "FILE *file" from kernelspace.

Emne: Using a FILE




  Hi all

   I'm newbie in kernel development. I'm writing a driver, and i'want
   to save some values in a file to analyze them after execute my
   probes. Do i need something special if i want to use a FILE *file? 

   I can compile my driver, but when i make 'insmod', it tell me that
   'unresolved symbol fopen' and 'unresolved symbol fclose' :-? 

   It's posible what i want to do? How?

    Thanks in advance
    J
