Subject: [uml-devel] copy_from_user in SKAS mode
Date: Tue, 17 May 2005 19:33:26 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3524bf1f0505171633edddc7@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

i'm trying to understand how copy_from_user (and copy_to_user) is
working in SKAS mode. i started from copy_from_user_skas, and followed
the functions. but i kinda got lost and couldn't get the intuition how
data are transferred to the UML kernel, which is a different process.
Could anyone explain how copy_from_user works in SKAS mode? i'd really
appreciate it. Thank you!
