Hi all,
        I have created a file "cache" in /usr. I want to access it from
kernel. When a function from nfs_srvcache.c is called i want to add
some data to this file. We are not getting how to do file I/O in
kernel. Can we use open and write system calls for the same? we tried
using open system call but it is giving some segmentation faults. Could
anyone please tell us how to do this?

Thanking all in anticipation,

Yours Sincerely,

Balaji Raghavan
