No, please never use "raw" kobjects in a driver, use the driver core functions instead. You can have an attribute group that is associated with your driver or device, and the driver core will automatically create the files for you (in a subdir if you want it), in a race-free manner. Please use that interface instead. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
