Re: Printing environment variables for a process

Yes, it is possible.

I wrote a function that do this (copy_from_user_space() ) and another
one to dump the environment of a task (using its pid) to the kernel ring
buffer. (I have just tested over i386).
If someone knows a more efficient (or elegant) way of do this, please
let me know.
Well, the /proc filesystem allows one process to print out
the environment of another process (via 'cat /proc/<pid>/environ')
There must be something in the proc fs which does this. It might
be worth looking there.
