It describes exactly the per file descriptor information we need.
Making that device driver independent is potentially useful as well.

We had entertained the idea of exposing the processes as sysfs nodes as you proposed, but we had concerns about exposing process info in there, especially since /proc already exists for that purpose.
I think if you were to follow that approach, we could have tools like top that support exposing GPU engine usage.

Wall time. It uses the fences in the scheduler to calculate engine
time. We have some python scripts to make it look pretty, but mainly
just reading the files directly. If you know the process, you can
look it up in procfs.

It was on the amd-gfx mailing list.
