i would suggest you schedule a tasklet. doing staff like from ISR ,
from my opinion
is too risky and bug prone.

About sending signals from kernel space to user space

Hi All,

I am trying to send some information to User Space process from Kernel
Module/Driver. How can I do that in context of interrupt Service Routine?
I found that using kill_async, it is possible to send SIGIO signal and handling
that in User . Is there anyother way to achieve this ?
