The traditional way to start debugging this is to add a line at the beginning of your show and store routines: printk(KERN_DEBUG "Now in our special sysfs show routine\n"); and see if it shows up in your dmesg or not. If not, your routine is probably not being called. If it is, the problem is in the routine. (You'd be surprised how often people say their routine isn't getting called, when it in fact is, or vice versa..)
