debugfs_create_file doesn’t create file
<p>Hello, I am trying to create a debugfs file using the debugfs_create_file(...). I have written a sample code for this.</p>
<pre><code>static int __init mmapexample_module_init(void)
{
file1 = debugfs_create_file("mmap_example", 0644, NULL, NULL, &my_fops)\
;
printk(KERN_ALERT "Hello, World\n");
if(file1==NULL)
{
printk(KERN_ALERT "Error occured\n");
}
if(file1==-ENODEV)
{
printk(KERN_ALERT "ENODEV occured\n");
}
return 0;
}
</code></pre>
<p>When i ran insmod i could get the Hello, World message but no the error message. So i think the debugfs_create_file worked fine. However i couldn't find any file in /sys/kernel/debug. The folder is there but it is empty. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you...</p>
<p>Thanks, Bala</p>
