Associatin C program with kernel compilation
 

Hi,
I was assigned a task of developin a product to transfer files over the serial port of a PC which I had done so using C programs. But my TA thinks it is too simple so wants me to make the assignment look complicated by bringing in the kernel compilation somehow. All he wants is that my program should contain something...anything.. which calls for the compilation of the kernel. Iam plannin either to create a system call or develop a own simple protocol. Can i compile the kernel with these programs??
Sorry for my lengthy n confusing question but i need help though.

Maybe you could make it a kernel module? Just a thought.

Peace...
