i'm trying to clarify the interconnection between all of the sysfs structures, so a few questions: 1) is it true that an entry exists at the top of the sysfs if and only if it is a subsystem? there's no notion of a lower-level subsystem, is there? that is, subsystems aren't defined recursively. 2) as i read it, a subsystem contains only the *default* kset of that subsystem. so how can one (if it's possible), given a subsystem, generate a list of *all* of the subsystem's kset children? (i'm assuming the "list" member structure in a kset is for the list of kobject children of that kset, right?) 3) as i read it, ksets are also not recursive, so the entire sysfs structure consists solely of subsystems, which contain ksets, which contain kobjects, and that's it, right? ksets can't contain other ksets. more later, after i clarify the above. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
