inet_init() initialiser

Hi,

I am trying to add some functionality to the existing kernel code. I need my initialiser routine to be executed at boot time. Since my functionality is related to forwarding tables (of a network processor) I am considering the idea to adding my initialiser in the __init inet_init() function (af_inet.c). Since this function goes in the initcall.init section, so it should do the job.

I tried to add some code in the inet_init (), but some how the new code added doesn't execute. Later I removed the function call and added just a printk(); just after the
printk(KERN_INFO "NET4: Linux TCP/IP 1.0 for NET4.0\n");
in inet_init(), but even this doen't work. I checked the af_inet.o to see my added string (of my printk)in the obj file, it does exist, but I am unable to see the output in the /var/log/messages !!


regards,
Hoobastang
