Hi All,
*************************************************
error: variable `hdlc_cdevsw' has initializer but incomplete type
************************************************** *
This is the error that i'm getting while trying to compiling a driver
..inspite of this way of declaration being valid in gcc i'm getting this
error.
I have declared hdlc_open and defined CDEV_MAJOR prior to this .
static struct cdevsw hdlc_cdevsw = {
.d_name = "hdlc_cdev",
.d_maj = CDEV_MAJOR,
.d_open = hdlc_open;
};
I'm here by providing the cdevsw structure for ur refrence .kindly let me
know why this err is occuring .
Charac device structure
struct cdevsw {
int d_version;
int d_maj;
u_int d_flags;
const char *d_name;
d_open_t *d_open;
d_fdopen_t *d_fdopen;
d_close_t *d_close;
d_read_t *d_read;
d_write_t *d_write;
d_ioctl_t *d_ioctl;
d_poll_t *d_poll;
d_mmap_t *d_mmap;
d_strategy_t *d_strategy;
dumper_t *d_dump;
d_kqfilter_t *d_kqfilter;
d_spare1_t *d_spare1;
d_spare2_t *d_spare2;
/* These fields should not be messed with by drivers */
LIST_ENTRY(cdevsw) d_list;
LIST_HEAD(, cdev) d_devs;
int d_refcount;
};
kindly let me know what is the problem here
Thanks in Advance ,

^^^ dots aren't part of the name, they have special use -- when accessing

here.

The error is saying that the structure type is incomplete i.e. the
compiler cannot see a definition (i.e. the specification of the
structure members) of struct cdevsw at this point.
static struct cdevsw hdlc_cdevsw = { .d_name = "hdlc_cdev",
^^^ dots aren't part of the name, they have special use -- when accessing member of a structure but not when defining/declaring it. Remove the dots here.
Dots aren't part of the name but they are part of the C99 named structure
member initialisation syntax so they are required here.
