hi list,the type of data is void ** so u can pass any structure. But in the tasklet function, the defintion of the structure must be known. Maybe u hav to include the header file in the function which runs the tasklet but it's a bad idea :)
i have a small problem. i need to pass a private data structure to a tasklet,how should i do
it. In DECLARE_TASKLET there's an argument for "data", which is passed to my tasklet fxn.
but this does'nt seem to be helpfull cos my private data structure is part of another struct
which is itself initalized at runtime and hence i don't have a handle to it before-hand.
TIA -/dev/mandeep

U shouldn't use ur own structure for tasklet. Or try to access the different fields of the structure just with adresses. This will be tedious :)
