reading a file from kernel?

Hi, I'm writing a driver for a USB modem. The driver needs to read a file with preferences when the user connects. I haven't been able to find any documentation on how to do this in kernel mode but from reading a couple of LINUX ng's I've come to understand that there might be a problem doing this. Does anyone know what would be the right way to do this? (a usermode process sending ioctls with the preferences will not work in this case) Thanks /TG _______________________________________________ darwin-kernel mailing list | darwin-kernel@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/darwin-kernel Do not post admin requests to the list.
