Anyway, does not work...
I just would like to know if the kernel offers me a conversion table. As I
said, I did it already by myself, but was just looking for a more stylish
way to do...

Subject: Translate keysyms to ASCII
Hello people,
I working on a small proof of concept keylogger that works on kernel mode.
It's parte of my studies of kernel development.
I'm using the struct keyboard_notifier_param to get the keys pressed on
the keyboard(s) attached to the system.
At the end, I print the value, like this:
printk(KERN_DEBUG KEY== %i, param-value);
According to the definition of the struct keyboard_notifier_param at
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/keyboard.h#L37, the
field value is a keycode, unicode value or keysym.
For example, when I press the key a, I get the value 30, but I would like
tranlate it to the ASCII. I managed to create a translation table by
myself, but I think there is another way more stylish to do this, or not? I
googled a lot but could not find a consistent answer.
Any help is appreciated,
Gabriel.

The term I think you want to search for is PC keyboard scan code. This
link seems to cover it pretty well:
