debugfs_create_automount(9)

💅 debugfs_create_automount 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for debugfs_create_automount(9) — yes, the manual-name vibe is folded in right here, no boring header line needed. 💖 This one is literally about making an automount point in the debugfs filesystem, and the way that sounds way fancier than it is. iykyk. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct dentry * debugfs_create_automount (const char *name , struct
dentry *parent , debugfs_automount_t f , void *data );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• name — a pointer to a string containing the name of the file to create. that's the label, bestie. 🏷️
• parent — a pointer to the parent dentry for this file. This should be a directory dentry if set. If this parameter is NULL, then the file will be created in the root of the debugfs filesystem. no parent? root it is, periodt. 🌱
• f — function to be called when pathname resolution steps on that one. yes, that one. your main character callback. 👑
• data — opaque argument to pass to f. it's giving mystery box, and honestly? iconic. 🎁

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so here's the whole vibe check: f should return what ->d_automount would. that's literally it. no cap, that's the description. 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
