Developing DLKM question.

Sung-Geun, Lee — Thu, 06 Oct 2005 02:07:48 GMT

I'm develping DLKM module on HP-UX 11i environment. I wrote routine to get stat(struct stat) information for current proc.

My routine is below..

int p_stat(struct stat *sb)
{
struct vnode *exec_vp;
int error;

exec_vp = findtextvp(p_vas(u.u_procp));
if ( exec_vp == NULL )
return -1;

error = my_vno_stat(exec_vp, sb, kt_cred(u.u_kthreadp), FOLLOW_LINK);
if ( error )
return -2;

return 0;
}

int my_vno_stat(vp, sb, cred, follow)
{
struct vattr vattr;

vattr.va_acl = 0;
vattr.va_basemode = 0;

error = VOP_GETATTR(vp, &vattr, cred, VSYNC);
if (error)
return error;

.....
}

but, Panic occured in some systems when calling VOP_GETATTR().

my_vno_stat() asm code.
my_vno_stat
.PROC
.CALLINFO CALLER,FRAME=208,ENTRY_GR=%r3,SAVE_RP,ARGS_SAVED,ORDERING_AWARE

LDO -48(%r30),%r29 ;offset 0x34

NOP ;offset 0x3c
LDD -304(%r30),%r2 ;offset 0x40
BVE (%r2) ;offset 0x44
.EXIT

Is there any problem in my routine?
Plz, help me.. :-(

thanks for reading my poor english.

You could try amending your code slightly

struct vattr vattr;

memset(&vattr, 0, sizeof(vattr));

vattr.va_acl = 0;
vattr.va_basemode = 0;

Though I suspect that isn't the problem.
