This is a question about FreeBSD kernel (module) programming. Is there an equivalent in FreeBSD to the Linux function 'call_usermodehelper' which wraps execve to do as its name suggests, call a user mode helper program? If there is, what is it? If not, can some kind person please point me to some code in the kernel--if there is any--which does something similar, so I may see how it's properly done? My searching thus far has been to no avail. Thanks, Andrew
