Hi list!
I need to create a hierarchy of procfs files. I made some tests successfully.
Now, I want to create a hierarchy as follows:
procfs
|
|
|-my_directory
|
|-dir_a
| |
| |-field 1
| |-field 2
| |-field 3
|
|-dir_b
| |-field 1
| |-field 2
| |-field 3
dir_a and dir_b has the correspondent dir_a and dir_b structs inside my module. These structs has the same type (the same fields but different values). So my idea was to assign the same read_proc function to all of my proc_dir_entry for "field *" files. Once inside this function, make a switch to know which concrete struct should I ask.
Here reaches my question. The switch would depend on the parent directory (if I'm reading from field 1 subdir of dir_a, then search for dir_a struct) but the comment at proc_fs.h say that "this is not complete implemented yet".
Can I use that fileds? Is there a easier way to implement this? I would like to write as fewer lines as possible to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.
