so this patch introduces a sysfs attribute to display the matrix of
adapters and domains that are or will be assigned to the APCB of a guest
that is or will be using the matrix mdev. For a matrix mdev denoted by
$uuid, the guest matrix can be displayed as follows:
cat /sys/devices/vfio_ap/matrix/$uuid/guest_matrix
My OCD wants you to name this matrix_guest instead of guest_matrix.
Simply
because then "matrix" and "matrix_guest" will be grouped together when
doing
an ls on the parent directory. As a system admin, its the little
things that
make the difference :) Please consider... though I won't withhold an
R-b for
it.
I am going to leave it as guest_matrix for two reasons:
1. To me, the name matrix_guest reads like the guest belongs to the
matrix rather
than the matrix belonging to the guest.
2. Changing it will require changes to all of the automated test cases
that check
sysfs to determine whether the attribute is present and I don't
think the juice
is worth the squeeze.
