//! configfs interface: Userspace-driven Kernel Object Configuration
//!
//! configfs is an in-memory pseudo file system for configuration of kernel
//! modules. Please see the [C documentation] for details and intended use of
//! configfs.
//!
//! This module does not support the following configfs features:
//!
//! - Items. All group children are groups.
//! - Symlink support.
//! - `disconnect_notify` hook.
//! - Default groups.
//!
//! See the [`rust_configfs.rs`] sample for a full example use of this module.
