Oh, like all others, i will tell you that doing a system call from within kernel is not exactly desirable most of the times. However, since you need it, you can use the public sys_call_table[] array of function pointers. extern void * sys_call_table[]; A call to sys_call_table[__NR_whatever] is what you need. regards Sridhar -- Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing -- Murphy's Laws on Work -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
