Restoring kernel input driver state on boot

Hi, Since is not possible for a kernel driver to save anything to a file I need to know how could I achieve that using other technic. Someone mentioned earlier in this list that I could use udev to load settings on a kernel module. Since my module state depends on a whole structure the best thing I can remember to achieve this goal is someting like this: - In user space (and since i'm always exchanging that data from and to the kernel module within my device control panel) I could save to a fixed place a file with that state. - With a custom and small utility I could load (using the binnary attributes) that state to the kernel module on it's initialization using for that udev. Since my understanding of udev at this point is almost null, I would like to know if this is possible, and in what functionality of udev I should put my effort on. If someone could give me an expert advice about I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance, With my best regards, Nuno Santos
