Hi there, I need some help with a patch to the ext3 filesystem I'm developing. I'm completelly new to kernel programming and I need to understand practically how to use one of the ext3 reserved inode for storing a log. I thought it would be just as easy as getting the inode with the ext3_iget() function, but it doesn't seem to be the case. For example, if I try to load the third reserved inode like this : inode = ext3_iget(sb, 3); ext3_iget() fails somehow and crashes the process with a NULL pointer reference. What am I missing here? How do you use a reserved inode? Can anybody point to some documentation or project that uses reserved inodes? I'm really stuck :( Thanks a lot, Donato Capitella -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
