Hi!
I've written a kernel modul and it works sofar, but I've 2 problems with users
with the new redhat beta. this kernel has changed some functions that I need
1. the do_generic_file_read function has one parameter more on redhat beta 3
kernel 2.4.20-2.48 kernel
do_generic_file_read(vc->vc_backing_file, &position,
- - &desc, vc_read_actor);
+ &desc, vc_read_actor, 1);
I want now to do an ifdef, so it compiles on both kernels, but I don't know
which value I should take for that ifdef.
2. an other user told me that his redhat kernel bet kernel doesn't export
sys_call_table anymore. I use that to give to user an overview of which
devices are loaded and that stuff. It works also without the proc stuff, but
I still would like to have my proc stuff, is there now a new way for the proc
stuff?
ps: http://194.242.45.189/robert/virtualcd/index.html is the homepage for my
kernelmodule if someone wants to check.
