Hey folks, Next question: What's the preferred way of allocating a (fairly large) struct? Is it acceptable to just declare a struct foo bar; and have it on the stack? Or should i explicitly allocate space with __kmalloc()? Or perhaps something else entirely? Thanks, Athul -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
