example of kernel thread

[Ottavio Campana]

I'm writing a little driver and I need to run a thread to poll data.

I've googled a bit to find an example, but I only found this
http://www.scs.ch/~frey/linux/kernelthreads.html
but it is for 2.4, while I need it for 2.6

Do you know any example and/or tutorial for kernel threads?

Thank you.
