85  *
86  * @perm is 0 if the the variable is not to appear in sysfs, or 0444
87  * for world-readable, 0644 for root-writable, etc.  Note that if it
88  * is writable, you may need to use kparam_block_sysfs_write() around
89  * accesses (esp. charp, which can be kfreed when it changes).
90  *
91  * The @type is simply pasted to refer to a param_ops_##type and a
92  * param_check_##type: for convenience many standard types are provided but
93  * you can create your own by defining those variables.
94  *
95  * Standard types are:
96  *	byte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
97  *	charp: a character pointer
98  *	bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
