[PATCH v2 0/2] soundwire: sysfs: expose device number and status
This patchset combines three contributions:
Srinivas Kandagalta suggested creating a device even it's detected on the bus but not described in platform firmware. I suggested adding the device number and status to show the difference with 'ghost' devices, described in firmware but not physically present. Vinod suggested a simpler way to report the status.
I did not keep Vinod's patch separate since it was using the same group attribute as the other properties, which prevents status and device number from being reported if there is no firmware and no driver.
These patches were tested on Qualcomm and Intel platforms.
v2: as suggested by GregKH, add attribute group by default by setting the groups pointer at the device level.

Currently Slave devices are only added on startup, either from Device Tree or ACPI entries. However Slave devices that are physically present on the bus, but not described in platform firmware, will never be added to the device list. The user/integrator can only know the list of devices by looking a dynamic debug logs.
This patch suggests adding a Slave device eveb there is no matching DT or ACPI entry, so that we can see this in sysfs entry.
Initial code from Srinivas. Comments, fixes for ACPI probe and edits of commit message by Pierre.

Sure
The MIPI DisCo device properties that are read by the driver from platform firmware, or hard-coded in the driver, should only be provided as sysfs entries when a driver probes successfully.
However the device status and device number is updated even when there is no driver present, and hence can be updated when a Slave device is detected on the bus without being described in platform firmware and without any driver registered/probed.
As suggested by GregKH, the attribute group for Slave status and device number is is added by default upon device registration.
Credits to Vinod Koul for the status_show() function, shared in a separate patch and used as is here. The status table was modified to remove an unnecessary enum and status_show() is handled in a different group attribute than what was suggested by Vinod.

These properties report the Slave status, e.g. if it
is UNATTACHED or not, and in the latter case show the
device_number. This status information is useful to
detect devices exposed by platform firmware but not
physically present on the bus, and conversely devices
not exposed in platform firmware but enumerated.

Both the status and device_number belong to the device, so we can put them under device and use device properties
We already use directories for device-level and port-level properties, I just thought it be cleaner to continue this model. We might also expand the information later on, e.g. provide interrupt status.
I don't mind if we remove the directory and move everything up one level, but it wouldn't be consistent with the previous work.

Actually no. If you look at the standard, 'Unattached' is an 'internal state of a Slave that indicates that it is not synchronized with to the Frame boundaries within the Bitstream'. A Slave device can only become attached and report it's presence as Device0 in a PING frame once it's ATTACHED - which in turn means the device has been able to sync for 15 frames. A device number of zero means the device is able to respond to command but has not yet been enumerated, or was enumerated previously but lost sync or went through a reset sequence and reattached. A device number of zero does not mean the device is unattached, the logic is as follow:
Attached -> Device 0 or 1..11 Unattached -> No concept of device number (or not an observable value).
We should not overload what 'Device0' means and instead follow the standard to the letter. We also don't want the attribute to come and go dynamically, so N/A (Not Applicable) is IMHO the only way to convey this meaning.
Does this help?

Both the status and device_number belong to the device, so we can put them under device and use device properties
We already use directories for device-level and port-level properties, I just thought it be cleaner to continue this model. We might also expand the information later on, e.g. provide interrupt status.
Right now we have directories for N ports (needs a dir due to nature of N ports) and 'properties' derived from Disco/firmware. So Nport and properties makes sense. But for generic device level stuff like device number, status and future interrupt or anything should be at device level.
I don't mind if we remove the directory and move everything up one level, but it wouldn't be consistent with the previous work.
Just because we had directory for a reason, adding a directory to conform to that does make it better. IMO device files should be at device directory
+static ssize_t device_number_show(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf)
+{
- struct sdw_slave *slave = dev_to_sdw_dev(dev);
- if (slave->status == SDW_SLAVE_UNATTACHED)
return sprintf(buf, "%s", "N/A");
Do we really want N/A here, 0 should imply UNATTACHED and then the status_show would tell UNATTACHED.
Actually no. If you look at the standard, 'Unattached' is an 'internal state of a Slave that indicates that it is not synchronized with to the Frame boundaries within the Bitstream'. A Slave device can only become attached and report it's presence as Device0 in a PING frame once it's ATTACHED - which in turn means the device has been able to sync for 15 frames. A device number of zero means the device is able to respond to command but has not yet been enumerated, or was enumerated previously but lost sync or went through a reset sequence and reattached. A device number of zero does not mean the device is unattached, the logic is as follow:
Attached -> Device 0 or 1..11 Unattached -> No concept of device number (or not an observable value).
We should not overload what 'Device0' means and instead follow the standard to the letter. We also don't want the attribute to come and go dynamically, so N/A (Not Applicable) is IMHO the only way to convey this meaning.
Does this help?
Ok lets retain this.

Any reason why we want this under dev-status.

We have a "dev-properties" directory, which is added after the driver probe, and describes MIPI DisCo values at the device level.
Either we remove this dev-properties and move it to the device level - to be consistent with your recommendation - or we keep separate directories, one which is populated on device registration and the other on driver probe.

Quite right and the reason to add this after driver probe is to let driver update the values (hard coded or read from firmware etc)
There is a set of properties which tells us the group of properties which are coming from MIPI DisCo, so IMO they do belong to a directory
Either we remove this dev-properties and move it to the device level - to be
It is sysfs ABI it can't be moved, not that I agree with that

This is device properties so should not really be a directory!
For example on linux devices we have bunch of files and one specific directory for power. Here too I would like to see bunch of files and directory for dp-N and mipi ones
