NAME
realksh.c - A shell for running Kernel-mode C code
SYNOPSIS
realksh.c
DESCRIPTION
realksh.c is an interactive shell that runs C source code. A line of
input is handled as a line in module_init() function, and the resulting
C code is compiled to build a kernel module. The module is then
inserted into the kernel, and removed from the kernel. kernel message
output prepended with KMSG: is copied to standard out for convenience,
so that functions like printk can be used for easy debugging.
If a line starting with # such as #include <stdio.h> is entered, it is
added to every code after that at the start of sourcecode.
The list of such lines can be seen with ##
EXAMPLES
The following is an example session
$ sudo ./realksh.c
REAL ksh: printk ("hello\n");
Building modules, stage 2.
KMSG: <4>hello
REAL ksh: printk ("%x\n", mfmsr());
Building modules, stage 2.
KMSG: <4>9032
REAL ksh: printk ("%x\n", mfspr(SPRN_MMCR0));
