File change notification along with user

Hi all, Is it possible to write a module/driver which notifies file/directory change asynchronously along with user name(or with uid) who modified it. inotify will do change notification but it will not provide uid who modified/created the file. audit and inotify combination can work, but I'm lo

Hi, As far as the CFS scheduler is concerned, every task, whose key is the task's virtual time, will be inserted into a red-black tree to improve the performence of seaching specified task. But, that works well only if any task's vritual time is different with the others tasks'. So, I wonder

Hi all, can anyone please explain the following code, what it is doing. I want the first few statements of the code, as they are calculating page frame number. This is little confusing, thanks in advance. struct page *simple_vma_nopage(struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long ad

do_gettiimeofday query

I am having trouble with do_gettimeofday() function. I have following source code: int my_module_init(void) {     struct timeval tv = {0};     do_gettimeofday(&tv);     printk("tv.tv_sec = %lu\n", tv.tv_sec);     return 0; } module_init(my_module_init); This code is built-in kernel, and therefore
