hi all,
before doing sock_recvmsg in khhtpd/misc.c
it made
oldfs=getfs();
set_fs(KERNEL_DS);
sock_recvmsg(......);

is there any need in other case it would be... but in
this 
particular case to set every time data segment to 
KERNEL_DS as
we are already in kernel space coz our thread has been
invoked from module which is in kernel space
rather i used abouve call succesfully w/o  setting
this segment.yes as it  is done it has got reason
but plz let me know that.
prasanna
