- What: /sys/.../<device>/mdev_supported_types/
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- This directory contains list of directories of currently
- supported mediated device types and their details for
- <device>. Supported type attributes are defined by the
- vendor driver who registers with Mediated device framework.
- Each supported type is a directory whose name is created
- by adding the device driver string as a prefix to the
- string provided by the vendor driver.
- What: /sys/.../<device>/mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- This directory gives details of supported type, like name,
- description, available_instances, device_api etc.
- 'device_api' and 'available_instances' are mandatory
- attributes to be provided by vendor driver. 'name',
- 'description' and other vendor driver specific attributes
- are optional.
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/create
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Writing UUID to this file will create mediated device of
- type <type-id> for parent device <device>. This is a
- write-only file.
- For example::
- # echo "83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001" > \
- /sys/devices/foo/mdev_supported_types/foo-1/create
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/devices/
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- This directory contains symbolic links pointing to mdev
- devices sysfs entries which are created of this <type-id>.
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/available_instances
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Reading this attribute will show the number of mediated
- devices of type <type-id> that can be created. This is a
- readonly file.
- Users:
- Userspace applications interested in creating mediated
- device of that type. Userspace application should check
- the number of available instances could be created before
- creating mediated device of this type.
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/device_api
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Reading this attribute will show VFIO device API supported
- by this type. For example, "vfio-pci" for a PCI device,
- "vfio-platform" for platform device.
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/name
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Reading this attribute will show human readable name of the
- mediated device that will get created of type <type-id>.
- This is optional attribute. For example: "Grid M60-0Q"
- Users:
- Userspace applications interested in knowing the name of
- a particular <type-id> that can help in understanding the
- type of mediated device.
- What: /sys/.../mdev_supported_types/<type-id>/description
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Reading this attribute will show description of the type of
- mediated device that will get created of type <type-id>.
- This is optional attribute. For example:
- "2 heads, 512M FB, 2560x1600 maximum resolution"
- Users:
- Userspace applications interested in knowing the details of
- a particular <type-id> that can help in understanding the
- features provided by that type of mediated device.
- What: /sys/.../<device>/<UUID>/
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- This directory represents device directory of mediated
- device. It contains all the attributes related to mediated
- device.
- What: /sys/.../<device>/<UUID>/mdev_type
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- This is symbolic link pointing to supported type, <type-id>
- directory of which this mediated device is created.
- What: /sys/.../<device>/<UUID>/remove
- Date: October 2016
- Contact: Kirti Wankhede <[email protected]>
- Description:
- Writing '1' to this file destroys the mediated device. The
- vendor driver can fail the remove() callback if that device
- is active and the vendor driver doesn't support hot unplug.
- Example::
- # echo 1 > /sys/bus/mdev/devices/<UUID>/remove
