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