Re: Sockets: synchronous I/O


the problem is, that I need a (struct file*) to do the poll(..)-call and a "kernel socket" returned by sock_create() isn't attached to a file (sock->file == NULL). So what now?


sock_map_fd() seems to be what I was looking for

Right, that does it, consider using kernel threads that run in process context.
