i am some problem while printing the contents of the file with tab spaces in the file from the kernel mode. the tab spaces are converted to junk characteres if i print them inside the kernel mode with the printk.
my code snippet is :
. . .
fd=openptr("test.txt",O_RDONLY,0666); len=readptr(fd,buff,sizeof(buff); printk("%s",buff); . . .
the test.txt file contain only a line of string "this is test"
the space in between the string is tab spaces.
while i print the output it shows junk.
so any help is appreciated, thks, mju
