driver core: Expose device link details in sysfs
It's helpful to be able to look at device link details from sysfs. So,
expose it in sysfs.
Say device-A is supplier of device-B. These are the additional files
this patch would create:
/sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/
auto_remove_on
consumer/ -> .../device-B/
runtime_pm
status
supplier/ -> .../device-A/
sync_state_only
/sys/devices/.../device-A/
consumer:device-B/ -> /sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/
/sys/devices/.../device-B/
supplier:device-A/ -> /sys/class/devlink/device-A:device-B/
That way:
To get a list of all the device link in the system:
ls /sys/class/devlink/
To get the consumer names and links of a device:
ls -d /sys/devices/.../device-X/consumer:*
To get the supplier names and links of a device:
ls -d /sys/devices/.../device-X/supplier:*
