Hi,
The relayfs relay_file_operations have always been exported, the
intent being to make it possible to create relay files in other
filesystems such as debugfs. The problem, though, is that currently
the file operations are too tightly coupled to relayfs to actually be
used for this purpose. This patch fixes that by adding a couple of
callback functions that allow a client to hook into
relay_open()/close() and supply the files that will be used to
represent the channel buffers; the default implementation if no
callbacks are defined is to create the files in relayfs. It also
removes relayfs-specific code in the file operations themselves and
renames some functions to better reflect their purpose.
The file creation callback also supplies an optional param, is_global,
that can be used by clients to create a single global relayfs buffer
instead of the default per-cpu buffers. This was suggested as being
useful for certain debugging applications where it's more convenient
to be able to get all the data from a single channel without having to
go to the bother of dealing with per-cpu files.
There are a couple of new examples that demonstrate both usages in the
examples/exported-relayfile directory of the relay-apps tarball:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/relayfs/relay-apps-0.9.tar.gz?download
This patch depends on [PATCH 1/4] relayfs: add support for non-relay files.
