Documentation: rapidio: move sysfs interface to ABI
Right now, the description of the rapidio sysfs interfaces is in
Documentation/rapidio/sysfs.txt. Since these are a part of the ABI, they
should be in Documentation/ABI along with the rest.

RapidIO Device Subdirectories --------------------------------- - -For each RapidIO device, the RapidIO subsystem creates files in an individual -subdirectory with the following name, /sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<device_name>. - -The format of device_name is "nn:d:iiii", where: - -nn - two-digit hexadecimal ID of RapidIO network where the device resides -d - device typr: 'e' - for endpoint or 's' - for switch -iiii - four-digit device destID for endpoints, or switchID for switches - -For example, below is a list of device directories that represents a typical -RapidIO network with one switch, one host, and two agent endpoints, as it is -seen by the enumerating host (destID = 1): - -/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:e:0000 -/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:e:0002 -/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:s:0001 - -NOTE: An enumerating or discovering endpoint does not create a sysfs entry for -itself, this is why an endpoint with destID=1 is not shown in the list. - -2. Attributes Common for All RapidIO Devices --------------------------------------------- - -Each device subdirectory contains the following informational read-only files: - - did - returns the device identifier - vid - returns the device vendor identifier -device_rev - returns the device revision level - asm_did - returns identifier for the assembly containing the device - asm_rev - returns revision level of the assembly containing the device - asm_vid - returns vendor identifier of the assembly containing the device - destid - returns device destination ID assigned by the enumeration routine - (see 4.1 for switch specific details) - lprev - returns name of previous device (switch) on the path to the device - that that owns this attribute - modalias - returns the device modalias - -In addition to the files listed above, each device has a binary attribute file -that allows read/write access to the device configuration registers using -the RapidIO maintenance transactions: - - config - reads from and writes to the device configuration registers. - -This attribute is similar in behavior to the "config" attribute of PCI devices -and provides an access to the RapidIO device registers using standard file read -and write operations. - -3. RapidIO Endpoint Device Attributes -------------------------------------- - -Currently Linux RapidIO subsystem does not create any endpoint specific sysfs -attributes. It is possible that RapidIO master port drivers and endpoint device -drivers will add their device-specific sysfs attributes but such attributes are -outside the scope of this document. - -4. RapidIO Switch Device Attributes ------------------------------------ - -RapidIO switches have additional attributes in sysfs. RapidIO subsystem supports -common and device-specific sysfs attributes for switches. Because switches are -integrated into the RapidIO subsystem, it offers a method to create -device-specific sysfs attributes by specifying a callback function that may be -set by the switch initialization routine during enumeration or discovery process. - -4.1 Common Switch Attributes - - routes - reports switch routing information in "destID port" format. This - attribute reports only valid routing table entries, one line for - each entry. - destid - device destination ID that defines a route to the switch - hopcount - number of hops on the path to the switch - lnext - returns names of devices linked to the switch except one of a device - linked to the ingress port (reported as "lprev"). This is an array - names with number of lines equal to number of ports in switch. If - a switch port has no attached device, returns "null" instead of - a device name. - -4.2 Device-specific Switch Attributes - -Device-specific switch attributes are listed for each RapidIO switch driver -that exports additional attributes. - -IDT_GEN2: - errlog - reads contents of device error log until it is empty. - - -5. RapidIO Bus Attributes -------------------------- - -RapidIO bus subdirectory /sys/bus/rapidio implements the following bus-specific -attribute: - - scan - allows to trigger enumeration discovery process from user space. This - is a write-only attribute. To initiate an enumeration or discovery - process on specific mport device, a user needs to write mport_ID (not - RapidIO destination ID) into this file. The mport_ID is a sequential - number (0 ... RIO_MAX_MPORTS) assigned to the mport device. - For example, for a machine with a single RapidIO controller, mport_ID - for that controller always will be 0. - To initiate RapidIO enumeration/discovery on all available mports - a user must write '-1' (or RIO_MPORT_ANY) into this attribute file. - - -6. RapidIO Bus Controllers/Ports --------------------------------- - -On-chip RapidIO controllers and PCIe-to-RapidIO bridges (referenced as -"Master Port" or "mport") are presented in sysfs as the special class of -devices: "rapidio_port". - -The /sys/class/rapidio_port subdirectory contains individual subdirectories -named as "rapidioN" where N = mport ID registered with RapidIO subsystem. - -NOTE: An mport ID is not a RapidIO destination ID assigned to a given local -mport device. - -Each mport device subdirectory in addition to standard entries contains the -following device-specific attributes: - - port_destid - reports RapidIO destination ID assigned to the given RapidIO - mport device. If value 0xFFFFFFFF is returned this means that - no valid destination ID have been assigned to the mport (yet). - Normally, before enumeration/discovery have been executed only - fabric enumerating mports have a valid destination ID assigned - to them using "hdid=..." rapidio module parameter. - sys_size - reports RapidIO common transport system size: - 0 = small (8-bit destination ID, max. 256 devices), - 1 = large (16-bit destination ID, max. 65536 devices). - -After enumeration or discovery was performed for a given mport device, -the corresponding subdirectory will also contain subdirectories for each -child RapidIO device connected to the mport. Naming conventions for RapidIO -devices are described in Section 1 above. - -The example below shows mport device subdirectory with several child RapidIO -devices attached to it. - -[rio@rapidio ~]$ ls /sys/class/rapidio_port/rapidio0/ -l -total 0 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:e:0001 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:e:0004 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:e:0007 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:s:0002 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:s:0003 -drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Feb 11 15:10 00:s:0005 -lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb 11 15:11 device -> ../../../0000:01:00.0 --r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 11 15:11 port_destid -drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Feb 11 15:11 power -lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Feb 11 15:04 subsystem -> ../../../../../../class/rapidio_port --r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 11 15:11 sys_size --rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 11 15:04 uevent +The RapidIO sysfs files have moved to: +Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-rapidio and +Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-rapidio |
