Shared buffer between user and kernel space


Hi,
I need a shared buffer between user and kernel space. I read that one way is to allocated buffer in kernel and then call mmap from the user space. I searched for an example but couldn't find something useful. If you know, could you please send me any links or sample code that does this.... Thank you...

Thanks,
Bala
