dereferencing pointer to incomplete type in current->pid

dereferencing pointer to incomplete type in current->pid

[Alberto]

Hi,

I'm triying to work with the current macro. When i compile this code i
get the message:
"dereferencing pointer to incomplete type".

Any idea?

Thanks in advance


#include <sys/types.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include </usr/src/linux-2.4.18-18.7.x/include/asm-i386/current.h>
#include <sched.h>

main (void)
{
        printf (" pid  %l\n", current->pid );
}

You're mixing up kernel space (where something like "current" exists and
user space, where this concept is meaningless.

This is why it simply doesn't exist there...
