When you say, LKM area is prepared with vmalloc is it for code / executable you refering too ? if so will it matter for data copy ? Point # 2. Some one was saying that on atleast MIPS it takes more cycle to call kernel main function from module because of log jump. Does it apply to x86_64 to ? To teat above two should I make my module part of static kernel ? _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
