Subject: Why current->uid is not working in 2.6.29 ?
Date: Fri, 22 May 2009 21:22:05 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <784636.43001.qm@web111109.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> (raw)


Hello everyone,

I am new to kernel module programming and got some problem while compiling some old kernel code. 

The
code is trying to get user id using current->uid,   but it is not
working by reminding me 'task_struct; doesn't contain field uid '.  

I checked the linux source code , uid is not there any more.

The 'current' is of task_struct, so could anyone tell me where is the new place for that uid ?


Thanks in advance,

-Kun
