It's not configured into the kernels of either of the distros I use (Red Hat or SUSE). I can't have a required part of my driver depend on a feature that's not enabled in the major distro kernels. I'd like a mechanism that is (a) always there (b) easy for kernel to use and (c) easy for userspace to use. A sysfs file satisfies a, b, and c, but I can't use it; a sysfs bin file satisfies all three (a bit worse on b), but I can't use it; debugfs isn't there, so I can't use it. That leaves me with few options, I think. What do you suggest? (Please don't say netlink.) <b - 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/ | ||||||||||||
