From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
Add a mechanism for named attribute_groups to hide their directory at
sysfs_update_group() time, or otherwise skip emitting the group
directory when the group is first registered. It piggybacks on
is_visible() in a similar manner as SYSFS_PREALLOC, i.e. special flags
in the upper bits of the returned mode. To use it, specify a symbol
prefix to DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE(), and then pass that same prefix
to SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() when assigning the @is_visible() callback:
DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix)
struct attribute_group $prefix_group = {
.name = $name,
.is_visible = SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix),
};
SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() expects a definition of $prefix_group_visible()
and $prefix_attr_visible(), where $prefix_group_visible() just returns
true / false and $prefix_attr_visible() behaves as normal.
The motivation for this capability is to centralize PCI device
authentication in the PCI core with a named sysfs group while keeping
that group hidden for devices and platforms that do not meet the
requirements. In a PCI topology, most devices will not support
authentication, a small subset will support just PCI CMA (Component
Measurement and Authentication), a smaller subset will support PCI CMA +
PCIe IDE (Link Integrity and Encryption), and only next generation
server hosts will start to include a platform TSM (TEE Security
Manager).
Without this capability the alternatives are:
* Check if all attributes are invisible and if so, hide the directory.
Beyond trouble getting this to work [1], this is an ABI change for
scenarios if userspace happens to depend on group visibility absent any
attributes. I.e. this new capability avoids regression since it does
not retroactively apply to existing cases.
* Publish an empty /sys/bus/pci/devices/$pdev/tsm/ directory for all PCI
devices (i.e. for the case when TSM platform support is present, but
device support is absent). Unfortunate that this will be a vestigial
empty directory in the vast majority of cases.
* Reintroduce usage of runtime calls to sysfs_{create,remove}_group()
in the PCI core. Bjorn has already indicated that he does not want to
see any growth of pci_sysfs_init() [2].
* Drop the named group and simulate a directory by prefixing all
TSM-related attributes with "tsm_". Unfortunate to not use the naming
capability of a sysfs group as intended.
In comparison, there is a small potential for regression if for some
reason an @is_visible() callback had dependencies on how many times it
was called. Additionally, it is no longer an error to update a group
that does not have its directory already present, and it is no longer a
WARN() to remove a group that was never visible.
