I.e., you can do struct fpu_xstate_buffer_config { unsigned int min_size, max_size; unsigned int user_size; }; static struct fpu_xstate_buffer_config fpu_buf_cfg __ro_after_init; and then access those values through fpu_buf_cfg.<value> Thx. > + > +unsigned int get_xstate_config(enum xstate_config cfg) > +{ > + switch (cfg) { > + case XSTATE_MIN_SIZE: > + return buffer_config.min_size; > + case XSTATE_MAX_SIZE: > + return buffer_config.max_size; > + case XSTATE_USER_SIZE: > + return buffer_config.user_size; > + default: > + return 0; > + } > +} > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(get_xstate_config); > + > +void set_xstate_config(enum xstate_config cfg, unsigned int value) > +{ > + switch (cfg) { > + case XSTATE_MIN_SIZE: > + buffer_config.min_size = value; > + break; > + case XSTATE_MAX_SIZE: > + buffer_config.max_size = value; > + break; > + case XSTATE_USER_SIZE: > + buffer_config.user_size = value; > + } > +} -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
