2 * Routines to manage notifier chains for passing status changes to any
3 * interested routines. We need this instead of hard coded call lists so
4 * that modules can poke their nose into the innards. The network devices
5 * needed them so here they are for the rest of you.

17 * Notifier chains are of three types:
19 * Atomic notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in interrupt/atomic
20 * context. Callouts are not allowed to block.
21 * Blocking notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in process context.
22 * Callouts are allowed to block.
23 * Raw notifier chains: There are no restrictions on callbacks,
24 * registration, or unregistration. All locking and protection
25 * must be provided by the caller.
27 * atomic_notifier_chain_register() may be called from an atomic context,
28 * but blocking_notifier_chain_register() must be called from a process
29 * context. Ditto for the corresponding _unregister() routines.
31 * atomic_notifier_chain_unregister() and blocking_notifier_chain_unregister()
32 * _must not_ be called from within the call chain.
