This is a question about FreeBSD kernel (module) programming.
Is there an equivalent in FreeBSD to the Linux function
'call_usermodehelper' which wraps execve to do as its name suggests,
call a user mode helper program? If there is, what is it? If not, can
some kind person please point me to some code in the kernel--if there is
any--which does something similar, so I may see how it's properly done?
My searching thus far has been to no avail.
Thanks,
Andrew
