Hi

I need to insert kernel modules from a C application , is it possible
to do that without calling system("insmod ..")

Definitely. All you need to do is to take the insmod source code and
copy it into your application.
Simple as that. Open Source.


Just compile your module at a source directory , and run the following
after compiling the following with gcc.

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main()
{
setuid(0);
system("/sbin/insmod /.../sourcedirectory/yourmodule.ko");
system("/sbin/rmmod yourmodule.ko");

return 0;

}

Thanks
