Linux has various parts of the hotplug subsystem and events subsystem, which work together when a new device is inserted before it becomes available. Linux has a permanent kernel_thread helper running called khelper. This thread is occasionally used as a schedulable context for stuff that call_usermode_helper wants to run - like /sbin/hotplug or modprobe. It’s a pretty cool solution to the problem of calling out to userspace for help. khelper is responsible for running up hotplug when I insert my wifi card, which then configures the netdevice and hooks up ifplugd to watch for net events。
这是我找到的一段关于khelper的介绍,但是我想详细了解一下,有没有高人给讲解一下哈,翻译就不必要了,我还是看的懂这段英文的,谢谢!

应该是用来在kernel中调用User space的进程的
