Association between block device and block_device struct

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I am trying to find the corresponding block_device
struct for a certain block device (e.g. /dev/hda) in
2.6.  Is there a way I can find the association.

If not, can someone suggest some code, by which give a
block device name (e.g. hda), I can find out it's
corresponding block_device struct.  I was thinking of
one approach - "open" the block devive, get a file
pointer back, and from that obtain the block_device
pointer.  Any code sample or pointers would be highly
appreciated.

Regards,
Ahmed.
