I have a process running in user space and a driver in kernel space. I want to setup a communication between these two through netlink. From kernel point of view I am not clear. If I need to send data to user procees thorugh "netlink_unicast", this method is expecting the process_id of the process that is running in the user space. How can I get the process ID from the user space. Or is there any other way. Any help plz... thanks in advance regards seenu __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
