Hi! > * /sys/class/fpga_manager/<fpga>/firmware > Name of FPGA image file to load using firmware class. > $ echo image.rbf > /sys/class/fpga_manager/<fpga>/firmware I .. still don't think this is good idea. What about namespaces? The path corresponds to path in which namespace? > +int fpga_mgr_write(struct fpga_manager *mgr, const char *buf, size_t count) > +{ > + int ret; > + > + if (test_and_set_bit_lock(FPGA_MGR_BUSY, &mgr->flags)) > + return -EBUSY; > + > + dev_info(mgr->dev, "writing buffer to %s\n", mgr->name); > + > + ret = __fpga_mgr_write(mgr, buf, count); > + clear_bit_unlock(FPGA_MGR_BUSY, &mgr->flags); > + > + return ret; > +} > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(fpga_mgr_write); Is the EBUSY -- userspace please try again, but you don't know when to try again -- right interface? I mean, normally kernel would wait, so that userland does not have to poll? > +static ssize_t fpga_mgr_firmware_store(struct device *dev, > + struct device_attribute *attr, > + const char *buf, size_t count) > +{ > + struct fpga_manager *mgr = dev_get_drvdata(dev); > + unsigned int len; > + char image_name[NAME_MAX]; > + int ret; > + > + /* lose terminating \n */ > + strcpy(image_name, buf); > + len = strlen(image_name); > + if (image_name[len - 1] == '\n') > + image_name[len - 1] = 0; > + > + ret = fpga_mgr_firmware_write(mgr, image_name); > + if (ret) > + return ret; > + > + return count; > +} This shows why the interface is not right... Valid filename may contain \n, right? It may even end with \n.
