Hi,

I am writing a kernel driver and need to open a file and write data to it from 
inside the kernel module.

I know that on forums and on google, everybody says that it is "NOT 
RECOMMENDED" to do File I/O from a kernel driver. But, still I need to do it 
for my project.

Wherever I try to pass the file name to be opened to open() sys call from my 
kernel driver, the address of file name string is not recognized by sys call 
returning EFAULT (i.e. bad address).

For this, in Linux, get_fs() and set_fs() do help to do such File I/O from 
kernel driver.
But, I couldn't find anything like these in solaris. :( 

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance...
