Hello. I have written a netfilter kernel module and I want some code to run periodically, ie a function in the module should run every 5 seconds. I have researched and implemented a kernel work queue however this does not have the capability of being periodic from my assessment. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Why not just use a soft-timer and then in the timer callback, mod_timer it back in? Thanks, Nish -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
