An I use sock_recvmsg() sock_sendmsg() function to send data on a UDP socket opened in a kernel module?
The problem is, when I use sock_recvmsg at the server side, it will not wait at all for the client to send data. It behaves asynchronously. It will come out with received count as zero.
I cannot use, sock_read since I cannot get the (struct file *), a required parameter and there is no function like sock_recvfrom which is conunter part of recvfrom for kernel programming.
These were the options I tried. Could any one suggest how to come around the problem for sending data using UDP in a kernel module.
Thanking You Shesha
