Hi Hawking, a multi line value is not the problem, but here you have multiple values. E.g. in the case of the pp tables that is one big array of power profiles and we actually had a discussion if exposing them like this is ok or not. But in the case of the ras features you got multiple different things in the same file. And that in turn is a clear violation of the sysfs rules. I don't think we can't upstream the interface like this. See here for a good summary of the rules as well: https://lwn.net/Articles/378884/ Regards, Christian.

Basically, each IP blocks can support all the four error types, not just multi-uncorrectable. As a result, any upper level apps/libs that read from this file will just get confusing information as well. The feature mask is already good enough for this node. >> >> Regards, >> Hawking >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Russell, Kent <Kent.Russell@xxxxxxx> >> Sent: 2019年8月8日 20:51 >> To: Zhang, Hawking <Hawking.Zhang@xxxxxxx>; Zhou1, Tao >> <Tao.Zhou1@xxxxxxx>; amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; Pan, Xinhui >> <Xinhui.Pan@xxxxxxx>; Freehill, Chris <Chris.Freehill@xxxxxxx> >> Cc: Zhou1, Tao <Tao.Zhou1@xxxxxxx> >> Subject: RE: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: update ras sysfs feature info >> >> +Chris Freehill >> >> While I can understand this change, this broke our SMI interface, which was expecting a specific string format for the ras/features file. This has happened a few times now, where changes to the RAS sysfs files has broke the SMI CLI and/or SMI LIB. Can we please get a stable interface and sysfs format set up before publishing patches? This is creating a lot of extra work for developers with the SMI to constantly keep up with the changes being made to sysfs files.
