and go on discussing the next question - interface.
Right now this is the most diffucult one and there are two
candidates - syscalls and configfs. I've pointed my objections
agains configfs and haven't seen any against system calls...
Some objections:
- they require touching every architecture to add the new system calls
- they're harder to debug from userspace, since you can't using useful
tools such as echo and cat
- changing the interface is harder since it's (presumably) a binary API
