From d447ea2f30ec60370ddb99a668e5ac12995f043d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Emelyanov Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 01:00:08 -0700 Subject: cgroups: add the trigger callback to struct cftype Trigger callback can be used to receive a kick-up from the user space. The string written is ignored. The cftype->private is used for multiplexing events.
