The value of the "resource_alignment" can be specified using a kernel command-line argument (using the "pci=resource_alignment=") or through the corresponding sysfs object under the /sys/bus/pci path. Currently, when the value is set via the kernel command-line argument, and then subsequently accessed through sysfs object, the value read back will not be correct, as per: # grep -oE 'pci=resource_alignment.+' /proc/cmdline pci=resource_alignment=20@00:1f.2 # cat /sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment 20@00:1f. This is also true when the value is set through the sysfs object, but the trailing newline has not been included, as per: # echo -n 20@00:1f.2 > /sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment # cat /sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment 20@00:1f. When the value set through the sysfs object includes the trailing newline, then reading it back will work as intended, as per: # echo 20@00:1f.2 > /sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment # cat /sys/bus/pci/resource_alignment 20@00:1f.2 To fix this inconsistency, append a trailing newline in the show() function and strip the trailing line in the store() function if one is present. Also, allow for the value previously set using either a command-line argument or through the sysfs object to be cleared at run-time.
