Wouldn't it be better to kmalloc both struct dvb_device and struct file_operations together instead of doing 2 separate allocations? struct dvd_device_plus_fops { struct dvb_device dev; struct file_operations fops; } *dev_fops = kmalloc (sizeof (struct dvd_device_plus_fops), GFP_KERNEL); *pdvbdev = dvbdev = (struct dvb_device *)dev_fops; if (dev_fops == NULL) error handling; memset (&dev_fops->fops, 0, sizeof (dev_fops->fops)); ... dvbdev->fops = &dev_fops->fops; Jakub - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
