Is it safe to use string.h functions in kernel which are mostly user level functions. What is the difference when I write #include<string.h> and #include<linux/string.h> Where does each of the above point to in the linux kernel directory? In Linux-3.0/include/linux/string.h I found an entry for #include<string.h> What does the above exactly mean? Are there string safe function present in linux as like in windows driver model? -- Chandrabhanu Mahapatra -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
