It is somewhat perplexing to understand how that is possible, though I will note that the stub f_ops do not contain an ioctl op but I cannot see any mechanism by which we might return a validly open file without putting the driver specific ops in it. -apw _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
