I am a beginner of a driver-developer.
I got some problems.

you know some structs such as "file_operation" were defined in Header Files.when I define a struct in .C files,i always got errors below:

fops has an incomplete type
storage size of 'fops' isn't known

In my .C files , I defined as followed:

.....................
struct file_operation fops;
.....................

How can i solve this sort of problems. Thank you.
