Hi all. Is it possible to make syscalls from KLDs? I had assumed that the indirect syscall(SYS_call, ...) would do the trick, but all I get is a panic (12, page fault) when I try to load the KLD. Is there anything special I need to do before calling syscall()? What I'm trying to do is create a socket/connect channel for auditing purposes. So... /* Code snippet */ { #include <sys/socket.h> #include <unistd.h> int sockfd; sockfd = syscall(SYS_socket, AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0); } etc, etc. This appears in a function that is called upon KLD LOAD. I've tried __syscall((quad_t) SYS_socket, AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0), to no avail. Thanks for your help.
