I'm currently writting a module. I use a file from kernelspace. Instead of using "f_op" read/write calls, i would like to mmap this file into the kernel memory and use it as a contiguous space. I've try to do it by calling "do_mmap", but when i access the memory from another process inside an "ioctl", i get an Oops with a "segmentation fault". The address returned doesn't seem to be in good segment for my module. I would like to have a valid address of the begining of the mmaped file plus a "length", and being able to use this space when the module is requested from processes. I also want to be able to remap this space if the file grows. I don't know which functions or kernel structures i should use. Could you help me a bit ? Kind regards, j.
