Hi,
Yes, I am.. that was my suspicion (e.g., that it was the parameters of the
process which called open()/creat()/socket()/... originally). What's the
quickest way to get back to the v/inode's uid/gid?
Also, calling VFS_VGET() seems to give me a lockmgr panic with unknown type 0x0.
What is odd is that the only way I can get a vnode for VFS_VGET is through
struct file, and then shouldn't I be able to use that? I tried using the
flipping that vnode->inode with VTOI() and it was also giving me zeros for
i_uid, i_gid, etc., when it shouldn't have been.
Kind Regards,
Jon

I haven't looked at this field before, but it looks that f_cred is set
on falloc() to the cred of the thread creating the struct file (the
thread that called open or socket or pipe or kqueue, etc.). Are you
running this as root/wheel?
Cheers,
