Hello All,

I am trying to modify the path of the file while creating it. I was modifying the mkdir function pointer in the inode_operations structure. Not sure how to give the specific path to the file while creating it.

Sorry, but your question is not clear to me. Perhaps rephrasing it (with an example) will be better.

I am working on ramfs filesystem code. I would like to modify the directory path while creating the file. example when we give mkdir newfile; // this newfile should be present in /newlabel/newfile // newlabel is prefixed before the newfile So i am trying to modify the functions defined in the struct inode_operations for the directory. static const struct inode_operations ramfs_dir_inode_operations = { .create = ramfs_create, .lookup = simple_lookup, .link = simple_link, .unlink = simple_unlink, .symlink = ramfs_symlink, .mkdir = ramfs_mkdir, .rmdir = simple_rmdir, .mknod = ramfs_mknod, //Modifying this function to add the prefix to the file .rename = simple_rename, }; Let me know if I am doing something wrong Thanks Dinesh
