inode_operations , warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
- by djTeller
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to compile a simple Kernel program that read and write from a proc file.
I'm trying to set permission to that file by overriding the permission fp in inode_operations struct (.permission)
static int module_permission(struct inode *inode, int op, struct nameidata *foo)
{
. . .
}
static struct inode_operations Inode_Ops_4_Our_Proc_File = {
.permission = module_permission, /* check for permissions */
};
Our_Proc_File->proc_iops = &Inode_Ops_4_Our_Proc_File;
For some reason, when I compile this i get - warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type on the following line:
.permission = module_permission, /* check for permissions */
Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks!
