Sorry for the disterbing. Although the problem wasted me half a day, I
just found the key problem and solved it. It's caused by improper
parameter passing during system calls.
Thanks.

I'm porting some kernel module codes from kernel 2.4 to 2.6. The codes
used to work well under 2.4 kernel. In 2.6 environment, the problem is
filp_open("/root/test.txt",O_RDONLY,0) always return -20 (ENOTDIR).
But the regular file "/root/test.txt" does exist. What's wrong?
