That's true, but you cannot use any userspace libraries in the kernel
code.

POSIX is not applicable to MadWifi.  POSIX defines command line
interface, scripting and userspace API.  The kernel part of MadWifi
doesn't implement any of those.  The userspace utilities included with
MadWifi use userspace API described by POSIX.  The build system of
MadWifi relies on features described by POSIX, such as UNIX shell.

MadWifi is full of C functions.  Just see the code.
