Plz convey me. why dont you try strace commad? i dont know how much it will helpyou but its very good command to find which C library functions arecalled by any command on linux. and if you want in kernel, tracing the flow of any function/commandyou can use http://lxr.linux.no/ and easily check which functions arecalling which other functions. >>>>> On 12/23/05, Parag N(पराग़) <panemade@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:> > Hi,> > You added 2 functions alloc_inode and new_inode from> > /usr/src/linux/fs/inode.c to /usr/src/linux/fs/ramfs .
