Hi,
I am sorry if this is a newbie's question. I am developing a kernel module which needs to call some crypt functions implemented in user space. Since those functions utilize openssl library, I assume there is no easy way to port them into kernel.
I wonder whether there is an easy and elegant way to call the user space functions from the kernel and get the results, if /proc can not be used. If anybody knows where I can find a crypt library in the kernel, that will be a great help too.
Thank you very much.
