1 | What: /sys/class/pktcdvd/ | ||
2 | Date: Oct. 2006 | ||
3 | KernelVersion: 2.6.19 | ||

5 | Description: | ||
6 | |||
7 | sysfs interface | ||
8 | --------------- | ||
9 | |||
10 | The pktcdvd module (packet writing driver) creates | ||
11 | these files in the sysfs: | ||
12 | (<devid> is in format major:minor ) | ||
13 | |||
14 | /sys/class/pktcdvd/ | ||
15 | add (0200) Write a block device id (major:minor) | ||
16 | to create a new pktcdvd device and map | ||
17 | it to the block device. | ||
18 | |||
19 | remove (0200) Write the pktcdvd device id (major:minor) | ||
20 | to it to remove the pktcdvd device. | ||
21 | |||
22 | device_map (0444) Shows the device mapping in format: | ||
23 | pktcdvd[0-7] <pktdevid> <blkdevid> | ||
24 | |||
25 | /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/ | ||
26 | dev (0444) Device id | ||
27 | uevent (0200) To send an uevent. | ||
28 | |||
29 | /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/stat/ | ||
30 | packets_started (0444) Number of started packets. | ||
31 | packets_finished (0444) Number of finished packets. | ||
32 | |||
33 | kb_written (0444) kBytes written. | ||
34 | kb_read (0444) kBytes read. | ||
35 | kb_read_gather (0444) kBytes read to fill write packets. | ||
36 | |||
37 | reset (0200) Write any value to it to reset | ||
38 | pktcdvd device statistic values, like | ||
39 | bytes read/written. | ||
40 | |||
41 | /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/write_queue/ | ||
42 | size (0444) Contains the size of the bio write | ||
43 | queue. | ||
44 | |||
45 | congestion_off (0644) If bio write queue size is below | ||
46 | this mark, accept new bio requests | ||
47 | from the block layer. | ||
48 | |||
49 | congestion_on (0644) If bio write queue size is higher | ||
50 | as this mark, do no longer accept | ||
51 | bio write requests from the block | ||
52 | layer and wait till the pktcdvd | ||
53 | device has processed enough bio's | ||
54 | so that bio write queue size is | ||
55 | below congestion off mark. | ||
56 | A value of <= 0 disables congestion | ||
57 | control. | ||
58 | |||
59 | |||
60 | Example: | ||
61 | -------- | ||
62 | To use the pktcdvd sysfs interface directly, you can do: | ||
63 | |||
64 | # create a new pktcdvd device mapped to /dev/hdc | ||
65 | echo "22:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/add | ||
66 | cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map | ||
67 | # assuming device pktcdvd0 was created, look at stat's | ||
68 | cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0/stat/kb_written | ||
69 | # print the device id of the mapped block device | ||
70 | fgrep pktcdvd0 /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map | ||
71 | # remove device, using pktcdvd0 device id 253:0 | ||
72 | echo "253:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/remove | ||
