Clean-up the documentation of sysfs interfaces to be in the same format as described in Documentation/ABI/README. This will be useful for tracking changes in the ABI. Attributes are grouped by function (device, link or port) and then by date added. This patch also adds documentation for one attribute - /sys/class/ata_port/ataX/port_no Signed-off-by: Aishwarya Pant <aishpant@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

What: /sys/class/ata_...
|
|
Description:
|
|
Provide a place in sysfs for storing the ATA topology of the
|
|
system. This allows retrieving various information about ATA
|
|
objects.
|

|
Files under /sys/class/ata_port
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
For each port, a directory ataX is created where X is the ata_port_id of the
|
|
port. The device parent is the ata host device.

nr_pmp_links: (RO) If a SATA Port Multiplier (PM) is
|
|
connected, the number of links behind it.

|
|
idle [some ata HBA only].

Description:
|
|
(RO) Host local port number. While registering host controller,
|
|
port numbers are tracked based upon number of ports available on
|
|
the controller. This attribute is needed by udev for composing
|
|
persistent links in /dev/disk/by-path.

Files under /sys/class/ata_link

-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Behind each port, there is a ata_link. If there is a SATA PM in the topology, 15
|
|
ata_link objects are created.
|
|
|
|
If a link is behind a port, the directory name is linkX, where X is ata_port_id
|
|
of the port. If a link is behind a PM, its name is linkX.Y where X is
|
|
ata_port_id of the parent port and Y the PM port.

Description:
|
|
hw_sata_spd_limit: (RO) Maximum speed supported by the
|
|
connected SATA device.
|
|
|
|
sata_spd_limit: (RO) Maximum speed imposed by libata.
|
|
|
|
sata_spd: (RO) Current speed of the link
|

eg. 1.5, 3 Gbps etc.

Files under /sys/class/ata_device
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Behind each link, up to two ata devices are created.
|
|
The name of the directory is devX[.Y].Z where:
|
|
- X is ata_port_id of the port where the device is connected,
|
|
- Y the port of the PM if any, and
|
|
- Z the device id: for PATA, there is usually 2 devices [0,1], only 1 for SATA.
