May be. I'm referring to Kernel 2.3.39. In linux/include/linux/proc_fs.h is
written:
extern inline struct proc_dir_entry *create_proc_info_entry(const char *name,
mode_t mode, struct proc_dir_entry *base, get_info_t *get_info)
Means: four parameters, last is get_info_t *. My failure was that I sayed nothing
about Linux version - thought it was in 2.3.39 like in 2.3.29... ash on my head.. :(
Perhaps several of you do have several linux versions, please have a look into
sources and tell me about create_proc_info_entry...
