stupid, since my KEXT is not an IOKit service I can't use it the way
normal
IOKits communicate with their KEXTs,
Registering a sysctl node is a perfectly OK way to communicate with a
non- I/O Kit kext.
So by using the above method ( the way webDAV does it) and it works
and no
crashing I will be satisified, unless there is a much better way of
doing
things, that someone can point me too very well documented stuff,
instead
of documentation that only states it exists and does no help.
I think you're mistaken, or confused. The MacOS X webdavfs does not
try to copy a socket structure into/out of the kernel; it uses the
normal BSD file descriptor passing mechanism.
Will my above method work theoretically ?
No.
