[RFC PATCHv1 0/2] Export SoC info through sysfs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here is the first version of the proposal to export SoC related information to user-space through sysFS interface.

This serie is to continue what has been discussed on the "socinfo" thread created by Eduardo Valentin:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/11/364

The first patch introduces the common part, which provides an interface to the platform to register its name, and exports platform-defined IDs to user-space.
The IDs strings can be provided in two ways: either with a pointer to the string, or by a callback returning the string.

The second patch is given as example for the ux500 architecture. It registers with the machine name "DB8500", and exports 3 informations (SoC unique ID, sili
con revision and silicon process).

Here is the output for DB8500:
root@ME:/sys/devices/system/soc ls -l
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         4096 Jan 11 02:43 mach_name
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         4096 Jan 11 02:43 process
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         4096 Jan 11 02:43 revision
-r--r--r--    1 root     root         4096 Jan 11 02:43 soc_id
root@ME:/sys/devices/system/soc cat mach_name
DB8500
root@ME:/sys/devices/system/soc cat process
Standard
root@ME:/sys/devices/system/soc cat revision
2.0
root@ME:/sys/devices/system/soc cat soc_id
2ba07ce9e5835d6185321e9577462ef2ea2129cf

Any comments are welcome.

Note that I will be off from 13th to 21th of March.

Regards,
Maxime
