75 * module_param - typesafe helper for a module/cmdline parameter
76 * @value: the variable to alter, and exposed parameter name.
77 * @type: the type of the parameter
78 * @perm: visibility in sysfs.
79 *
80 * @value becomes the module parameter, or (prefixed by KBUILD_MODNAME and a
81 * ".") the kernel commandline parameter. Note that - is changed to _, so
82 * the user can use "foo-bar=1" even for variable "foo_bar".
83 *
84 * @perm is 0 if the the variable is not to appear in sysfs, or 0444
85 * for world-readable, 0644 for root-writable, etc. Note that if it
86 * is writable, you may need to use kparam_block_sysfs_write() around
87 * accesses (esp. charp, which can be kfreed when it changes).
88 *
89 * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
90 * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
91 * you can create your own by defining those variables.
92 *
93 * Standard types are:
94 * byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
95 * charp: a character pointer
96 * bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
97 * invbool: the above, only sense-reversed (N = true).
