Hi,

I see that we can use NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT to send kernel messages to user space. This is available in most of the latest 2.6 kernels. But if I pick older kernels like 2.6.9 and NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT is not available.

Is there anything equivalent to NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT for the driver to send messages to user space in older 2.6 kernels?

Thanks for your help in advance.

With regards,
  Anil
