both solutions dont seem to work, i tried
#define PROGRAM_TO_RUN "/bin/ping"
char *argv[] = { PROGRAM_TO_RUN, "192.168.0.1", NULL };
with no success like before.
earlier in the kernel thread i called exit_mm(current); to let the thread appear as own process.
when i removed that line, i still got the same results as above.
(at the end of the kernel thread i use to call complete_and_exit(), when replacing that with return 0, no change).
thats pretty much all i could have changed with my kernel thread, there doesnt happen much more than this.
any ideas?
best regards,
threadhead
