need for notifier chains?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

While going through the code in kernel/sys.c and
include/linux/notifier.h , i came across notifier chains in kernel
2.6.20.1 .

What are notifier chains exactly and why do we need them in the networking code?
Is it a generic callback list? Or is it specific to the networking stack?

Any help?

Thanks
