Hi, I want to write a kernel module which interacts with a userspace daemon. There are cases when the userspace daemon can terminate by some signals. There are also cases where the userspace daemon can crash (in some abnormal cases). Is there a way that the kernel module will be aware of such userspace agent crash, in order to reset its state ?
Can't you reset it when the daemon is about to be killed from the userspace itself? Depends on how complex/simple you want this but there are several possibilities. Care to tell me how you thought about doing this and where you got stuck?
