not that long ago, a simple module i wrote with this entry routine
worked just fine:
...
#include <asm/current.h>
...
static int hi(void)
{
printk(KERN_INFO "Hello from hi1.\n");
printk(KERN_INFO "The user space process is '%s'\n", current->comm);
printk(KERN_INFO "The user space PID is %i\n", current->pid);
return 0;
}
but trying to build it against the latest git pull produces:
.../hi1.c:14: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
.../hi1.c:15: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
huh? does "current" not work the same way anymore? have i missed
something obvious, because this used to work just fine.
