It is a homework . Use a kernel spcae as a char decieve
Which can offer open write and so on.
I just use a char buffer[128] in kernel space.
Then i have some ideas.
I can use kernel space as char device. I can also use kernel spcae as
a file system? Could it be ?
If memory can be a filesystem . Can i use a file to simulate ã
It just not be taken as a file . Like something
we store file in it.
