Jonathan, it's kmalloc(), not kcalloc().
The kernel's kmalloc doesn't initialize the memory. There is a function called kzalloc which will allocate and zero the memory, which is sort of similar to the user-space calloc function, although calloc takes num-of-items and size-of-one-item, whereas kzalloc takes "size-of-allocation". -- Dave Hylands Shuswap, BC, Canada http://www.davehylands.com
