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 {...

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

NAME

       init_module - initialize a loadable module entry

SYNOPSIS

       #include <linux/module.h>

       int init_module(const char *name, struct module *image);

DESCRIPTION

       init_module() loads the relocated module image into kernel space and runs the module's init function.

       The  module  image begins with a module structure and is followed by code and data as appropriate.  The module structure is defined as fol-
       lows:

	   struct module {
	       unsigned long	     size_of_struct;
	       struct module	    *next;
	       const char	    *name;
	       unsigned long	     size;
	       long		     usecount;
	       unsigned long	     flags;
	       unsigned int	     nsyms;
	       unsigned int	     ndeps;
	       struct module_symbol *syms;
	       struct module_ref    *deps;
	       struct module_ref    *refs;
	       int		   (*init)(void);
	       void		   (*cleanup)(void);
	       const struct exception_table_entry *ex_table_start;
	       const struct exception_table_entry *ex_table_end;
	   #ifdef __alpha__
	       unsigned long gp;
	   #endif
	   };

       All of the pointer fields, with the exception of next and refs, are expected to point within the module body and be initialized	as  appro-
       priate for kernel space, that is, relocated with the rest of the module.

       This system call requires privilege.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, zero is returned.  On error, -1 is returned and errno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       EBUSY  The module's initialization routine failed.

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

       EINVAL Some  image  slot is filled in incorrectly, image->name does not correspond to the original module name, some image->deps entry does
	      not correspond to a loaded module, or some other similar inconsistency.

       ENOENT No module by that name exists.

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

CONFORMING TO

       init_module() is Linux-specific.
