Thread: /proc programming

Hi to all,

I wanted to ask if anyone of you have good sources of how to work with /proc..I tried google but the results are not that satisfying.

If you have please send them to me..

Warm regards,
Visham

What problems do you have ?. /proc behaves like any other filesystem.
You can use ordinary file functions like fopen, fread, fwrite, fscanf ...

I need to make a kernel pace program to initiate a communication to a userspace program..the kernelspace program (i modified some functions in the the iptables kernel code) needs to notify a userspace program that it has to start its execution. I was told that system calls, libraries and (g)libc are not avaibale in kernel space. I wa told to look at procfs.

Can you help..

Warm regards,
Visham
