No, but I'm sure there are tons of /proc programming examples available on the net, try google ...

I would like to know if there's a way to get the pid of a process by using it's name. Also, how can I know of the processes that are running and their pids?

Warm regards,
Visham

# pidof (my go to)
# pstree
# top

and I like the first reply: ps ax | grep [any part of the process name]

What is the problem you trying to solve?

There appears to be no need for a kernel module for this as

Appears to solve most of what you are describing.
