So we cannot just pass it > to user space.. Hmm. It is useful for debugging kernel rdma applications. Perhaps these attrs can be only be sent up by the kernel if the capabilities allow. But previous review comments of the kernel series, which is now merged, forced me to remove passing the capabilities information to the driver resource fill functions. So what's the right way to do this?
