NAME

6       debugfs_create_regset32 - create a debugfs file that returns register
7       values
8

SYNOPSIS

10       struct dentry * debugfs_create_regset32(const char * name,
11                                               umode_t mode,
12                                               struct dentry * parent,
13                                               struct debugfs_regset32 * regset);
14

ARGUMENTS

16       name
17           a pointer to a string containing the name of the file to create.
18
19       mode
20           the permission that the file should have
21
22       parent
23           a pointer to the parent dentry for this file. This should be a
24           directory dentry if set. If this parameter is NULL, then the file
25           will be created in the root of the debugfs filesystem.
26
27       regset
28           a pointer to a struct debugfs_regset32, which contains a pointer to
29           an array of register definitions, the array size and the base
30           address where the register bank is to be found.

DESCRIPTION

33       This function creates a file in debugfs with the given name that
34       reports the names and values of a set of 32-bit registers. If the mode
35       variable is so set it can be read from. Writing is not supported.
36
37       This function will return a pointer to a dentry if it succeeds. This
38       pointer must be passed to the debugfs_remove function when the file is
39       to be removed (no automatic cleanup happens if your module is unloaded,
40       you are responsible here.) If an error occurs, NULL will be returned.
41
42       If debugfs is not enabled in the kernel, the value -ENODEV will be
43       returned. It is not wise to check for this value, but rather, check for
44       NULL or !NULL instead as to eliminate the need for #ifdef in the
45       calling code.
