Successfully implemented man page creation and development. Working on customizing them as per the needs.

I would like to thanks Emblogic team for the C paper, it help me and was able to pass the C test for sasken. thanks again.

In 2.6.x the ioctl is divided in to 2
compact_ioctl (struct file * filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg )
it is used when a 32 bit application is called in 64 bit, so it will provide the required mapping born due to the different architecture of 32 and 64 bit.

unlocked_ioctl (struct file * filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg )

In earlier version the (struct inode * ) parameter was used to fetch the device info from filp->private_data. but now it has been removed.
It is provided as filp->f_dentry->d_inode

plus in
struct file_operations
{
ioctl:my_ioctl,

use
compact_ioctl: my_ioctl,
unlocked_ioctl: my_ioctl,
}

on doing insmod no error is given .
but on dmesg the printk statement are not showing.
i have checked in /var/log/message but printk statement are not present.

Ihave changed the priority in printk.h file bur no avail .

If any one has any info do let it pass to me.

Secondly, the *.ko file from different directory and as well as from my other colleagues are working fine my laptop fine.

I tried copying the data to a new place but no avail.
Sir, please let me know what to do.
i am using the above command in super user mode (su – ), but still i have the problem.
Fedora 15 64 bit
kernel 2.6.40

i have written the driver from scratch but again no avail, but i got more confident in driver while writing it again.

Tried google it but no avail.

I am troubled by it and my work is also stopped…
