I want to process a copy operation from file sent from user space - this copying should be inside the kernel..

Why? What problem are you trying to solve by doing this? This is almost certainly a bad design, for a number of reasons. And there's probably a better way to do what you're trying to accomplish.

I read about using filp_open , will this help me ?

Probably not.
