Re: how do you call userspace syscalls (e.g. sys_rename) from insidekernel

For every sys_xx there is a do_xx, that can
be called from inside the kernel.

Well, not every sys_xx, but most of them :)
For example there's no do_epoll_ctl for sys_epoll_ctl.
I requested this one a long time ago but didn't get it.
