nfssvc (sock) int sock;
async_daemon()
nfssvc() starts an NFS daemon listening on socket sock. The socket must be AF_INET, and SOCK_DGRAM (protocol UDP/IP). The system call will return only if the socket is invalid.
async_daemon() implements the NFS daemon that handles asynchronous I/O for an NFS client. This system call never returns.
Both system calls result in kernel-only processes with user memory discarded.
There should be a way to dynamically create kernel-only processes instead of having to make system calls from userland to simulate this.
