Hi,

Can anyone help me with this simple problem.

I am trying to write a firmware loader driver. Instead of reading the
firmware as a buffer(predefined array)  we would like to read the firmware
from a file (say /root/firmware). Do we have some function which reads the
file contents in kernel mode.
