Can you see if you are able to get the user space buffer and print it? Would be better if you can post some of your code.
file with content blah. I tried to use printk to see what gets called during the creation process but it doesn't seem that write is getting called for my file, just open. When I ran strace I see a write call but it is to stdout and not to my file. Any tips on how to go about implementing the behavior I'm after? I've been following the following tutorial with the changes necessary to work on kernel 3.10.34 http://lwn.net/Articles/57369/ . Any help is appreciated, thanks!
In case you have saved the user space contents and not set the inode->i_size properly try to set that appropriately. But again it would be better to have some code to look at.
