i am not able to solve it
i think i am making it complex
can you tell me a way
so that /kernel/fork.c
can call a function of /fs/proc/root.c
if i can include the root.c file in the fork.c
then the work becomes easier but i am unable to do it..can i do it ?
how?
if no then what will be other procedure
i just simply want to set a value to a variable in root.c and it should reflect the value in fork.c(it can access the changed value)
can you tell me any other way out
thanks
i will be very greateful
