Hi everyone, I am trying to prevent the ehci_hcd kernel module to load at boot time. Here's what I've tried so far: 1) Add the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf (as suggested here): 2) Blacklisted the module by adding the following string to 3) Tried to blacklist the module...

How to access a struct within a struct?

Can someone tell me how to do this? Just a thought that entered my mind when learning about structs. First thought was: struct one { struct two; } struct two { three; } one->two->three would this be how you would access "three"?

Struct Initialization

Hi We are using a code generator for initializing structures with the #define macro. Compiling it with the GCC 2.8.1 (with -ansi) it OK. But when we are using the SUN C 5.0 compiler it screams. Following is a code sample: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> typedef struct TEST3 {...

create_module

CREATE_MODULE(2)					     Linux Programmer's Manual						  CREATE_MODULE(2)

NAME

       create_module - create a loadable module entry

SYNOPSIS

       #include <linux/module.h>

       caddr_t create_module(const char *name, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

       Note: This system call is present only in kernels before Linux 2.6.

       create_module() attempts to create a loadable module entry and reserve the kernel memory that will be needed to hold the module.  This sys-
       tem call requires privilege.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, returns the kernel address at which the module will reside.	On error -1 is returned and errno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       EEXIST A module by that name already exists.

       EFAULT name is outside the program's accessible address space.

       EINVAL The requested size is too small even for the module header information.

       ENOMEM The kernel could not allocate a contiguous block of memory large enough for the module.

       ENOSYS create_module() is not supported in this version of the kernel (e.g., the kernel is version 2.6 or later).

       EPERM  The caller was not privileged (did not have the CAP_SYS_MODULE capability).

VERSIONS

       This system call is only present on Linux up until kernel 2.4; it was removed in Linux 2.6.

CONFORMING TO

       create_module() is Linux-specific.
