Kobjects

#include <linux/kobject.h>
//The include file containing definitions for kobjects, related structures, and functions.

void kobject_init(struct kobject *kobj);
int kobject_set_name(struct kobject *kobj, const char *format, ...);
//Functions for kobject initialization.

struct kobject *kobject_get(struct kobject *kobj);
void kobject_put(struct kobject *kobj);
//Functions that manage reference counts for kobjects.

struct kobj_type;
struct kobj_type *get_ktype(struct kobject *kobj);
//Represents the type of structure within which a kobject is embedded. Use get_ktype to get the kobj_type associated with a given kobject.

int kobject_add(struct kobject *kobj);
extern int kobject_register(struct kobject *kobj);
void kobject_del(struct kobject *kobj);
void kobject_unregister(struct kobject *kobj);
//kobject_add adds a kobject to the system, handling kset membership, sysfs representation, and hotplug event generation. kobject_register is a convenience function that combines kobject_init and kobject_add. Use kobject_del to remove a kobject orkobject_unregister, which combines kobject_del and kobject_put.

void kset_init(struct kset *kset);
int kset_add(struct kset *kset);
int kset_register(struct kset *kset);
void kset_unregister(struct kset *kset);
//Initialization and registration functions for ksets.

decl_subsys(name, type, hotplug_ops);
//A macro that makes it easier to declare subsystems.

void subsystem_init(struct subsystem *subsys);
int subsystem_register(struct subsystem *subsys);
void subsystem_unregister(struct subsystem *subsys);
struct subsystem *subsys_get(struct subsystem *subsys)
void subsys_put(struct subsystem *subsys);
//Operations on subsystems.

Sysfs Operations

#include <linux/sysfs.h>
//The include file containing declarations for sysfs.

int sysfs_create_file(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr);
int sysfs_remove_file(struct kobject *kobj, struct attribute *attr);

int sysfs_create_link(struct kobject *kobj, struct kobject *target, char *name);
void sysfs_remove_link(struct kobject *kobj, char *name);
//Functions for creating and removing attribute files associated with a kobject.

Buses, Devices, and Drivers

int bus_register(struct bus_type *bus);
void bus_unregister(struct bus_type *bus);
//Functions that perform registration and unregistration of buses in the device model.

int bus_for_each_dev(struct bus_type *bus, struct device *start, void *data, int (*fn)(struct device *, void *));
int bus_for_each_drv(struct bus_type *bus, struct device_driver *start, void *data, int (*fn)(struct device_driver *, void *));
//Functions that iterate over each of the devices and drivers, respectively, that are attached to the given bus.

BUS_ATTR(name, mode, show, store);
int bus_create_file(struct bus_type *bus, struct bus_attribute *attr);
void bus_remove_file(struct bus_type *bus, struct bus_attribute *attr);
//The BUS_ATTR macro may be used to declare a bus_attribute structure, which may then be added and removed with the above two functions.

int device_register(struct device *dev);
void device_unregister(struct device *dev);
//Functions that handle device registration.

DEVICE_ATTR(name, mode, show, store);
int device_create_file(struct device *device, struct device_attribute *entry);
void device_remove_file(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr);
//Macros and functions that deal with device attributes.

int driver_register(struct device_driver *drv);
void driver_unregister(struct device_driver *drv);
//Functions that register and unregister a device driver.

DRIVER_ATTR(name, mode, show, store);
int driver_create_file(struct device_driver *drv, struct driver_attribute *attr);
void driver_remove_file(struct device_driver *drv, struct driver_attribute *attr);
//Macros and functions that manage driver attributes.

Classes

struct class_simple *class_simple_create(struct module *owner, char *name);
void class_simple_destroy(struct class_simple *cs);
struct class_device *class_simple_device_add(struct class_simple *cs, dev_t devnum, struct device *device, const char *fmt, ...);
void class_simple_device_remove(dev_t dev);
int class_simple_set_hotplug(struct class_simple *cs, int (*hotplug)(struct
class_device *dev, char **envp, int num_envp, char *buffer, int buffer_size));
//Functions that implement the class_simple interface; they manage simple class entries containing a dev attribute and little else.

int class_register(struct class *cls);
void class_unregister(struct class *cls);
Registration and unregistration of classes.
CLASS_ATTR(name, mode, show, store);
int class_create_file(struct class *cls, const struct class_attribute *attr);
void class_remove_file(struct class *cls, const struct class_attribute *attr);
The usual macros and functions for dealing with class attributes.
int class_device_register(struct class_device *cd);
void class_device_unregister(struct class_device *cd);
int class_device_rename(struct class_device *cd, char *new_name);
CLASS_DEVICE_ATTR(name, mode, show, store);
int class_device_create_file(struct class_device *cls, const struct class_device_attribute *attr);
void class_device_remove_file(struct class_device *cls, const struct class_device_attribute *attr);
//Functions and macros that implement the class device interface.

int class_interface_register(struct class_interface *intf);
void class_interface_unregister(struct class_interface *intf);
//Functions that add an interface to a class (or remove it).

Firmware

#include <linux/firmware.h>

int request_firmware(const struct firmware **fw, char *name, struct device *device);
int request_firmware_nowait(struct module *module, char *name, struct device *device, void *context, void (*cont)(const struct firmware *fw, void *context));
void release_firmware(struct firmware *fw);
//Functions that implement the kernel firmware-loading interface.
