track is a generic framework for safe tracking presence of any kernel objects
having an id. There are no special requirements about type of object or its
id. Id shall be unique.
Typical usage of the framework by consumer looks as follow:
1. Consumer registers notifier callback for objects with given id.
2. If the object is present consumer is notified immediately, otherwise it
will be notified immediately after object creation.
3. If the object is about to be removed notification is sent to the consumer
just before removal.
4. When consumer do not need the object anymore it unregisters its notifier
callback. If the object is present during notifier unregistration
notification about removal of the object is sent to the consumer.
All notification callbacks are serialized so the consumer do not need use
additional mechanisms to prevent callback races. Consumer should assume that
object is valid only between up and down notification callbacks inclusive.
Framework usage by object provider is simple:
1. When object becomes available it notifies framework about it.
2. When object becomes unavailable it notifies framework about it.
Provider should take care of calling notifications synchronously in proper
order.
The framework does not uses locks during notification calls, so it is safe
to call framework functions from the callbacks. This feature allows to model
complex object dependencies without deadlock risk.
Some framework functions can sleep so the framework should be used in process
context.
