[gst-devel] GStreamer element implemented as Linux kernel module?

[Jim Hodapp]

Is it possible to create a GStreamer element that would live as a Linux kernel module that could still be integrated into a GStreamer pipeline? The reason for this would be to optimize certain buffer copying routines to maximize throughput and minimize latency. Is this possible and has it been done before with an example visible as open source?

Thanks,
