Clean up the sysfs documentation such that it is in the same format as described in Documentation/ABI/README. Mainly, the patch moves the attribute names to the 'What:' field. This might be useful for scripting and tracking changes in the ABI. Signed-off-by: Aishwarya Pant <aishpant@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Description:
|
|
|
|
add: (WO) Write a block device id (major:minor) to
|
|
create a new pktcdvd device and map it to the

block device.

remove: (WO) Write the pktcdvd device id (major:minor)
|
|
to remove the pktcdvd device.

|
|
Description:
|
|
size: (RO) Contains the size of the bio write queue.
|
|
|
|
congestion_off: (RW) If bio write queue size is below this mark,
|
|
accept new bio requests from the block layer.
|
|
|
|
congestion_on: (RW) If bio write queue size is higher as this
|
|
mark, do no longer accept bio write requests
|
|
from the block layer and wait till the pktcdvd
|
|
device has processed enough bio's so that bio
|
|
write queue size is below congestion off mark.
|
|
A value of <= 0 disables congestion control.

Example:
|
|
--------
|
|
To use the pktcdvd sysfs interface directly, you can do:
|
|
|
|
# create a new pktcdvd device mapped to /dev/hdc
|
|
echo "22:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/add
|
|
cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map
|
|
# assuming device pktcdvd0 was created, look at stat's
|
|
cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0/stat/kb_written
|
|
# print the device id of the mapped block device
|
|
fgrep pktcdvd0 /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map
|
|
# remove device, using pktcdvd0 device id 253:0
|
|
echo "253:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/remove
|
