Hi.  I'm just starting to move into system type coding.  I've picked up a book
on writing device drivers called "writing Unix Device Drivers".  I'm wondering
where the u. structure is defined (if at all).  When I tried writing one of
the sample programs, it said that u wasn't defined.  I thought that it was a
base structure.  One of my colleagues is a systems programmer and did not
understand why u. wasn't defined.   I'm confused.  Sorry if this is a dumb
question.
