linux-toradex.git/Documentation/filesystems/debugfs.txt, branch v5.5 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules debugfs: Add debugfs_create_xul() for hexadecimal unsigned long 2019-11-03T17:08:53+00:00 Geert Uytterhoeven geert+renesas@glider.be 2019-10-25T09:41:24+00:00 d3504757f3f049b553ba0eda8bd17cd1f2651285 The existing debugfs_create_ulong() function supports objects of type "unsigned long", which are 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the platform, in decimal form. To format objects in hexadecimal, various debugfs_create_x*() functions exist, but all of them take fixed-size types. Add a debugfs helper for "unsigned long" objects in hexadecimal format. This avoids the need for users to open-code the same, or introduce bugs when casting the value pointer to "u32 *" or "u64 *" to call debugfs_create_x{32,64}().

The existing debugfs_create_ulong() function supports objects of
type "unsigned long", which are 32-bit or 64-bit depending on the
platform, in decimal form.  To format objects in hexadecimal, various
debugfs_create_x*() functions exist, but all of them take fixed-size
types.

Add a debugfs helper for "unsigned long" objects in hexadecimal format.
This avoids the need for users to open-code the same, or introduce
bugs when casting the value pointer to "u32 *" or "u64 *" to call
debugfs_create_x{32,64}().
