None of these exist.

No.

No (for obvious reason: what device number would you use?)

It might help if you would
* describe what do you want to do
* tell which kernel branch you are dealing with

How Can I develop a process monitor?

[Abel Muñoz Alcaraz]

Hi everybody,

I want to develop a process monitor (like TOP) in a kernel module.
I think I must get the '/proc' superblock and replace the
inode_operations->mkdir,rmdir,create and open.

Is this correct?
Can I get the /proc superbloc with 'struct super_block * get_super(kdev_t
dev' function?

I am going to develop this module in C.

Thanks in advance.
-Abel.
