By the looks of you partno, I am guessing that your kernel has large block device support, which means that sector_t is 64bits. If that's the case, use %llu instead of %lu for those fields with the type sector_t .

thanks, you were right. So I get the Size in Bytes by

ulong64 size = bdget(dev)->bd_part->nr_sects *
               bdget(dev)->bd_block_size;

thank you very much...


ciao
