From b9d320fcb6259baffaeaf93a5fce252cd09333d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Thu, 12 May 2011 17:11:39 -0700 Subject: PCI: add rescan to /sys/.../pci_bus/.../ After remove the device from /sys, we have to rescan all or find out the bridge and access /sys../device/rescan there. this patch add /sys/.../pci_bus/.../rescan. So user can rescan more easy. that is more clean and easy to understand. like after remove 0000:c4:00.0, you can rescan 0000:c4 directly. -v2: According to Jesse, use function instead of exposing attr, so could hide #ifdef in header file. also add code to remove rescan file in remove path. -v3: GregKH pointed out that we should use dev_attrs to avoid racing. So add pcibus_attrs and make it to be member of pcibus_attrs. -v4: Change name to pcibus_dev_attrs according to GregKH Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes --- Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'Documentation/ABI') diff --git a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci index 36bf454ba855..349ecf26ce10 100644 --- a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci +++ b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci @@ -74,6 +74,15 @@ Description: hot-remove the PCI device and any of its children.
