Linux内核中struct file_operations含有下面两个函数指针：

struct file_operations {
        ... ...
    long (*unlocked_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long);
    long (*compat_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long);
        ... ...
}；

注意：

1、compat_ioctl：支持64bit的driver必须要实现的ioctl，当有32bit的userspace application call 64bit kernel的IOCTL的时候，这个callback会被调用到。如果没有实现compat_ioctl，那么32位的用户程序在64位的kernel上执行ioctl时会返回错误：Not a typewriter

2、如果是64位的用户程序运行在64位的kernel上，调用的是unlocked_ioctl，如果是32位的APP运行在32位的kernel上，调用的也是unlocked_ioctl

 

示例：

 1 #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
 2 static long debussy_compat_ioctl (struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
 3 {
 4     return debussy_ioctl(filp, cmd, (unsigned long)compat_ptr(arg));
 5 }
 6 #endif
 7 
 8 static const struct file_operations debussy_fops = {
 9     .owner        = THIS_MODULE,
10     .unlocked_ioctl = debussy_ioctl,
11 #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
12     .compat_ioctl = debussy_compat_ioctl,
13 #endif
14 };

 

完。
