That is really a bad idea. The idea is to assign a static set of driver groups directly in the driver declaration: static struct platform_driver amd_hsmp_driver = { .probe = hsmp_pltdrv_probe, .remove_new = hsmp_pltdrv_remove, .driver = { .name = DRIVER_NAME, .acpi_match_table = amd_hsmp_acpi_ids, }, }; And if you then need certain sysfs attributes to only be shown in certain conditions add an is_visible callback to your const struct attribute_group, note you can use separate is_visible callbacks per group to hide / unhide the entire groupin one go.
