.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Device driver may register a listener that will be notified each time
|
|
name lookup on the
|
|
.Xr devfs
|
|
mount point fails to find the vnode.
|
|
Listener shall be registered for the
|
|
.Va dev_clone
|
|
event.
|
|
When called, it is supplied with the first argument
|
|
.Va arg
|
|
that was specified at handler registration time,
|
|
appropriate credentials
|
|
.Va cr ,
|
|
.Va name
|
|
of the length
|
|
.Va namelen
|
|
that was looked for.
|
|
If handler decides that the name is appropriate and want to create device
|
|
that will be associated with the name, it should return it to the devfs
|
|
in the
|
|
.Va dev .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn drain_dev_clone_events
|
|
function is a barrier.
|
|
It is guaranteed that all calls to eventhandlers for dev_clone that were
|
|
started before
|
|
.Fn drain_dev_clone_events
|
|
call, are finished before it returns control.
