[PATCH v3 1/3] driver core: Expose device link details in sysfs

From: Saravana Kannan
Date: Thu May 21 2020 - 15:18:17 EST


It's helpful to be able to look at device link details from sysfs. So,
expose it in sysfs.

Say device-A is supplier of device-B. These are the additional files
this patch would create:

/sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/
auto_remove_on
consumer/ -> .../device-B/
runtime_pm
status
supplier/ -> .../device-A/
sync_state_only

/sys/devices/.../device-A/
consumer:device-B/ -> /sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/

/sys/devices/.../device-B/
supplier:device-A/ -> /sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/

That way:
To get a list of all the device link in the system:
ls /sys/class/devlink/

To get the consumer names and links of a device:
ls -d /sys/devices/.../device-X/consumer:*

To get the supplier names and links of a device:
ls -d /sys/devices/.../device-X/supplier:*

+Description:
+ This file indicates if the device link will ever be
+ automatically removed by the driver core when the consumer and
+ supplier devices themselves are still present.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ 'consumer unbind'
+ 'supplier unbind'
+ 'never'
+
+ 'consumer unbind' means the device link will be removed when
+ the consumer's driver is unbound from the consumer device.
+
+ 'supplier unbind' means the device link will be removed when
+ the supplier's driver is unbound from the supplier device.
+
+ 'never' means the device link will not be automatically removed
+ when as long as the supplier and consumer devices themselves
+ are still present.

+Date: May 2020
+Contact: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ This file indicates if the device link has any impact on the
+ runtime power management behavior of the consumer and supplier
+ devices. For example: Making sure the supplier doesn't enter
+ runtime suspend while the consumer is active.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ '0' - Does not affect runtime power management
+ '1' - Affects runtime power management
+
+What: /sys/class/devlink/.../status
+Date: May 2020
+Contact: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ This file indicates the status of the device link. The status
+ of a device link is affected by whether the supplier and
+ consumer devices have been bound to their corresponding
+ drivers. The status of a device link also affects the binding
+ and unbinding of the supplier and consumer devices with their
+ drivers and also affects whether the software state of the
+ supplier device is synced with the hardware state of the
+ supplier device after boot up.
+ See also: sysfs-devices-state_synced.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ 'not tracked'
+ 'dormant'
+ 'available'
+ 'consumer probing'
+ 'active'
+ 'supplier unbinding'
+ 'unknown'
+
+ 'not tracked' means this device link does not track the status
+ and has no impact on the binding, unbinding and syncing the
+ hardware and software device state.
+
+ 'dormant' means the supplier and the consumer devices have not
+ bound to their driver.
+
+ 'available' means the supplier has bound to its driver and is
+ available to supply resources to the consumer device.
+
+ 'consumer probing' means the consumer device is currently
+ trying to bind to its driver.
+
+ 'active' means the supplier and consumer devices have both
+ bound successfully to their drivers.
+
+ 'supplier unbinding' means the supplier devices is currently in
+ the process of unbinding from its driver.
+
+ 'unknown' means the state of the device link is not any of the
+ above. If this is ever the value, there's a bug in the kernel.

+Date: May 2020
+Contact: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ This file indicates if the device link is limited to only
+ affecting the syncing of the hardware and software state of the
+ supplier device.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ '0'
+ '1' - Affects runtime power management
+
+ '0' means the device link can affect other device behaviors
+ like binding/unbinding, suspend/resume, runtime power
+ management, etc.
+
+ '1' means the device link will only affect the syncing of
+ hardware and software state of the supplier device after boot
+ up and doesn't not affect other behaviors of the devices.
