I see in the configfs docs that the committable items feature is not implemented (and I notice that the commit_item function pointer is not used anywhere. I would like to know there are plans to implement it and what people really use as a work around. I am implementing a configuration API for a driver in the video4linux and I need the user to complete its configuration before the driver takes action. I was thinking to add a "done" attribute file where the user writes to it to tell the driver that the configuration is done, but I am not sure if this is usually the solution taken in the linux kernel or another kernel-space/user-space API is preferred.
