Thread: C unix program to call remote procedures with FIFO?

Hello, first I want to ask if it`s possible to call a remote procedure via FIFO pipe from unix with standart FIFO producer/consumer algorithm?
Here is my daemon implementation:
https://github.com/heatblazer/linux-...-interface.cpp

The fiforeader funciton does the reading and the test writing to a test file.

And the commander which writes to the fifo pipe:
https://github.com/heatblazer/linux-...al/commander.c

So can I produca e function call, let`s say that I have a struct

Code:

struct {
   long myid;
   struct {
      int (*_0)(void);
      int (*_1)(void);
      int (*_2)(void);
   } procedures; 
};

I want to call these functions form the commander interface. Any info would be great.

I`ve heard also about offsetof macro which can be used to acces N-th member of the struct but how can I achieve this via a raw buffer, that comes from the pipe?
