Hi all - My name is Fabrice. I'm currently working on Linux 2.4.2 kernel which is part of Red-Hat 7.1 package. I'm hacking on the VM system of Linux. My question is: Given a kernel pointer ( pointer to a given kernel data structure), how can we find the appropriate VM area instance? for a userland pointer , we can do: u_vma=find_vma(current->mm, u_ptr) Thanks Fabrice - Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
