Something might break. vf_did provides a easy way to retrieve the VF device ID without reading the PF config (looking up the SR-IOV capability and reading it) or without enabling SR-IOV to read for example virtfn0/device. Similar considerations (ease of access) apply to offset and stride. >> static ssize_t sriov_drivers_autoprobe_show(struct device *dev, >> struct device_attribute *attr, >> char *buf) >> @@ -676,6 +703,9 @@ static struct device_attribute sriov_totalvfs_attr = __ATTR_RO(sriov_totalvfs); >> static struct device_attribute sriov_numvfs_attr = >> __ATTR(sriov_numvfs, (S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP), >> sriov_numvfs_show, sriov_numvfs_store); >> +static struct device_attribute sriov_offset_attr = __ATTR_RO(sriov_offset); >> +static struct device_attribute sriov_stride_attr = __ATTR_RO(sriov_stride); >> +static struct device_attribute sriov_vf_did_attr = __ATTR_RO(sriov_vf_did); >> static struct device_attribute sriov_drivers_autoprobe_attr = >> __ATTR(sriov_drivers_autoprobe, (S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP), >> sriov_drivers_autoprobe_show, sriov_drivers_autoprobe_store); >> @@ -1744,6 +1774,9 @@ static struct attribute_group pci_dev_hp_attr_group = { >> static struct attribute *sriov_dev_attrs[] = { >> &sriov_totalvfs_attr.attr, >> &sriov_numvfs_attr.attr, >> + &sriov_offset_attr.attr, >> + &sriov_stride_attr.attr, >> + &sriov_vf_did_attr.attr, >> &sriov_drivers_autoprobe_attr.attr, >> NULL, >> }; >> -- >> 2.7.4 >> > Amazon Development Center Germany GmbH Berlin - Dresden - Aachen main office: Krausenstr. 38, 10117 Berlin Geschaeftsfuehrer: Dr. Ralf Herbrich, Christian Schlaeger Ust-ID: DE289237879 Eingetragen am Amtsgericht Charlottenburg HRB 149173 B
