Name

sysfs_break_active_protection — break active protection

Synopsis

struct kernfs_node * sysfs_break_active_protection (struct kobject * kobj,
 const struct attribute * attr);
 

Arguments

kobj

The kernel object attr is associated with.

attr

The attribute to break the active protection for.

Description

With sysfs, just like kernfs, deletion of an attribute is postponed until all active .show and .store callbacks have finished unless this function is called. Hence this function is useful in methods that implement self deletion.
