I want to use lseek from my KEXT.
The function definition is not in unistd.h as the man page indicates ... ergo compile error.
But, inspection of the KEXT symbol file shows lseek.

So, can someone tell me how to use lseek from my KEXT?

Can't be done. lseek is a libc function, and libc is generally not available in kernel extensions. If you have file operations to do, use a user-mode application, where libc is available.

Justin
