Subject: How to write/copy kernel data in newly allocated cache page?
Date: Wed, 19 May 2004 21:44:53 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040520014453.7611FB6D5@xprdmailfe20.nwk.excite.com> (raw)
Hi all,
While working at the kernel level, I want to write some data to the file without user knowing about it.
I guess I can allocate a new page using "__grab_cache_page()" and write/copy that data to the newly allocated page. The page will be eventually written to the file.
If this idea sounds practical, how do I write/copy the data at kernel level to that newly allocated page?
Vineet
