2017-12-07kobject: Remove redundant license textGreg Kroah-Hartman1-3/+0
Now that the SPDX tag is in all kobject files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

2017-12-07kobject: add SPDX identifiers to all kobject filesGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the kobject files files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

2015-03-25samples/kobject: be explicit in the module licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-1/+1
Rusty pointed out that the module license should be "GPL v2" to properly match the notice at the top of the files, so make that change. Reported-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2014-05-14samples/kobject/: avoid world-writable sysfs files.Rusty Russell1-3/+4
In line with practice for module parameters, we're adding a build-time check that sysfs files aren't world-writable. Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2009-01-07samples: mark {static|__init|__exit} for {init|exit} functionsQinghuang Feng1-2/+2
None of these (init|exit) functions is called from other functions which is outside the kernel module mechanism or kernel itself, so mark them as {static|__init|__exit}.

2008-01-25kobject: add sample code for how to use kobjects in a simple manner.Greg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+137
This is a simple kobject module, showing how to use kobj_attributes in basic and more complex ways. Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
