Hi,

can anybody tell me why there is no sys_open() exported in kernel/ksyms.c in 2.4 kernels while the sys_close() is there? And what is then the preferred way of opening files from within a 2.4 kernel module?

Why do you need to open files from kernel space? There are usually better alternatives like the firmware loader interface.
