Up to this day, all fdinfo-based GPU profilers must traverse the entire
/proc directory structure to find open DRM clients with fdinfo file
descriptors. This is inefficient and time-consuming.

This patch adds a new device class attribute that will install a sysfs file
per DRM device, which can be queried by profilers to get a list of PIDs for
their open clients. This file isn't human-readable, and it's meant to be
queried only by GPU profilers like gputop and nvtop.

It does seem like a good idea.. idk if there is some precedent to
prefer binary vs ascii in sysfs, but having a way to avoid walking
_all_ processes is a good idea.

I naturally second that it is a needed feature, but I do not think binary format is justified. AFAIR it should be used for things like hw/fw standardised tables or firmware images, not when exporting a simple list of PIDs. It also precludes easy shell/script access and the benefit of avoiding parsing a short list is I suspect completely dwarfed by needing to parse all the related fdinfo etc.

Why this?

I don't quite get the kvmalloc for just one page (or why even a temporay buffer and not write into buf directly?).

Feels bad.. I would suggest exploring implementing a read callback (instead of show) and handling arbitrary size output.

Either NULL terminated or PAGE_SIZE/sizeof(pid) entries and not NULL terminated feels weird. If I got that right.

For me everything points towards going for text output.

Shouldn't BIN_ATTR_RO be used for binary files in sysfs?

P.S. Or maybe it is time for drmfs? Where each client gets a directory and drivers can populate files. Such as per client logging streams and whatnot.
