Hi, I use emacs and tags to read kernel source. The tags is create by

make tags

in the kernel source tree. When I want to find a struct's defination, something goes wrong. For example: when I find *dentry* , the first result is:

struct rchan_buf { ... struct dentry *dentry; /* channel file dentry */ ... }

There are so many items like this before I find

struct dentry { .... }

Usually the definition has the curly brace on the same line, like this: struct dentry {. Just search for "{", it work in vim. Daniel.
