From 907f2c77d1653ce235e8e1fd6ce5c46005814e78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Zanussi Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2006 01:02:24 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] relayfs: export relayfs_create_file() with fileops param This patch adds a mandatory fileops param to relayfs_create_file() and exports that function so that clients can use it to create files defined by their own set of file operations, in relayfs. The purpose is to allow relayfs applications to create their own set of 'control' files alongside their relay files in relayfs rather than having to create them in /proc or debugfs for instance. relayfs_create_file() is also used by relay_open_buf() to create the relay files for a channel. In this case, a pointer to relayfs_file_operations is passed in, along with a pointer to the buffer associated with the file.
