I agree. You are trying to use configfs for something that it is not entended to be used for. If you want to write/read large numbers of attrbutes like this, use your own filesystem. configfs has the same "one value per file" rule that sysfs has. And because your userspace model doesn't fit that, don't try to change configfs here. What happened to your old ckrmfs? I thought you were handling all of this in that. thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
