I have a driver that needs to read a file that will eventually be located somewhere in /boot. It is likely that this file will be determined by an additional configuration file, also located in /boot, but the configuration file will be loaded by the ELF bootstrap, so I don't need to worry about it. Any ideas on how to go about opening and reading the file? I suspect the answer may be buried somewhere in sys/dev/vn (the vnode driver) but I lack sufficient clue to recognize it.
