DEVICE_FIND_CHILD(9) Device drivers infrastructure DEVICE_FIND_CHILD(9)NAME
device_find_child - device iterator for locating a particular device.
SYNOPSIS
struct device * device_find_child(struct device * parent, void * data, int (*match) (struct device *dev, void *data));
ARGUMENTS
parent
parent struct device
data
Data to pass to match function
match
Callback function to check device
DESCRIPTION
This is similar to the device_for_each_child function above, but it returns a reference to a device that is 'found' for later use, as
determined by the match callback.
The callback should return 0 if the device doesn't match and non-zero if it does. If the callback returns non-zero and a reference to the
current device can be obtained, this function will return to the caller and not iterate over any more devices.

DEVICE_CREATE(9) Device drivers infrastructure DEVICE_CREATE(9)NAME
device_create - creates a device and registers it with sysfs
SYNOPSIS
struct device * device_create(struct class * class, struct device * parent, dev_t devt, void * drvdata, const char * fmt, ...);
ARGUMENTS
class
pointer to the struct class that this device should be registered to
parent
pointer to the parent struct device of this new device, if any
devt
the dev_t for the char device to be added
drvdata
the data to be added to the device for callbacks
fmt
string for the device's name
...
variable arguments
DESCRIPTION
This function can be used by char device classes. A struct device will be created in sysfs, registered to the specified class.
A "dev" file will be created, showing the dev_t for the device, if the dev_t is not 0,0. If a pointer to a parent struct device is passed
in, the newly created struct device will be a child of that device in sysfs. The pointer to the struct device will be returned from the
call. Any further sysfs files that might be required can be created using this pointer.
Returns struct device pointer on success, or ERR_PTR on error.
NOTE
the struct class passed to this function must have previously been created with a call to class_create.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
