What are you trying to do? Create a socket in userspace and then allow your kext to read/write on that socket? Or are you trying to communicate between your process and your kext? If the former, then use descriptor passing (though you will need a process in which to use the descriptors). If the latter, then just use sysctl to communicate. It will work fine for most things; you don't need or want the overhead of a socket in the majority of cases. = Mike _______________________________________________ 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.
