The map contains information for a file system and is readable to
everyone, the access it has is ok. What I want to know is can I access
the map without attaching/mmapping to it every time the FS routines
are called.
The map is verified at the sysctl call, so that isn't a problem. However
if programs that access the filesystem need to attach/unattach I'll do
the shmat/shmdt calls before accessing the map.
I'm still fairly new to this 'hack the kernel' game, and I don't know
of anything similar for examples.
cheers
