Just because you are using the firmware interface, does not mean you need to add this extra round-trip to the whole system. Just dump the firmware to the /sys/firmware/whatever... file whenever you want to, that's all that is needed. No hotplug stuff, no filename stuff, just a simple copy. Also, see the -mm tree for a change in the way the sysfs attributes work, that will keep you from having to do the .type stuff all over the place. thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
