You can't use standard header files in a kernel period (there may be exceptions, but they are not for device drivers). You have to use the kernel API for those things. I'd look at one of the Linux device driver books that are on the net for free for more info.

It is a c file called natsemi.c. I want to make the driver output the outgoing data to a file or to the screen so that I can pipe it to a file. For this I need to modify the device driver code which I am having trouble with. I have written a code is C which uses fopen,fgetc,fclose functions and should output the data to a new file. It is however not compiling because of problems with header files like stdio.h and stdlib.h.
