KOBJECT_INIT(9)                           Driver Basics                           KOBJECT_INIT(9)



NAME
       kobject_init - initialize a kobject structure

SYNOPSIS
       void kobject_init(struct kobject * kobj, struct kobj_type * ktype);

ARGUMENTS
       kobj
           pointer to the kobject to initialize

       ktype
           pointer to the ktype for this kobject.

DESCRIPTION
       This function will properly initialize a kobject such that it can then be passed to the
       kobject_add call.

       After this function is called, the kobject MUST be cleaned up by a call to kobject_put,
       not by a call to kfree directly to ensure that all of the memory is cleaned up properly.
