ktypes vs. devices classes (struct class)

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

 



Hi all,

Why do we have ktypes (struct kobj_type) AND device classes (struct class)?

Don't they serve the same purpose (more or less) and it would be simpler, clearer and more KISS to only have one? Is this a historically grown thing or by design?

Thanks,
-- Richard
