take a look at task_struct in which the kernel 
stores all the information for the process. 
You can access it using "current" variable in 
your loadable kernel module.

  Subject: Kernel programming project

  linux kernel guru,
  i've been recently assigned a linux kernel programming project that will 
  allow the user to pick a process and track all the information the OS has on 
  that process.  i'm new to kernel programming and i'm having trouble 
  finding a list of calls that i can make from the kernel to access OS stored 
  information, i was wondering if you could help me out.

thanks,

Charlie Inch
