I'm developing a module of file system filter and I have a question about it. Does anybody know a function or method in order to translate an user space pointer into a valid pointer in kernel mode? I'd like to avoid copying data (such as the 'copy_to_user' and 'copy_from_user' functions do) because it slows down my system. Thanks in advance, Rub?n. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
