Users still need to create a directory to create an actual endpoint function. The commit message sounds like it is automating the whole endpoint function creation which it is not doing.

I was not clear in the wording. It is not the function directory that this is automating. It is not about: /sys/kernel/configfs/pci_ep/functions/<func_name>/ It is about automating the creation of the sub-directory under that that represent the attribute group that the function defines. So it is about: /sys/kernel/configfs/pci_ep/functions/<func_name>/<whatever-function-specific> That directory is *not* created automatically, the user must create it, but worse than that, can do it multiple times with really bad results when everything is tore down (I got an oops due to bad reference counts). This patch fixes that, not the function directory creation itself. > > Thanks, > Mani > >> Signed-off-by: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@opensource.wdc.com> >> --- >> drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-cfs.c | 41 ++++++++++++++----------------- >> 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-cfs.c b/drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-cfs.c >> index d4850bdd837f..1fb31f07199f 100644 >> --- a/drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-cfs.c >> +++ b/drivers/pci/endpoint/pci-ep-cfs.c >> @@ -23,6 +23,7 @@ struct pci_epf_group { >> struct config_group group; >> struct config_group primary_epc_group; >> struct config_group secondary_epc_group; >> + struct config_group *type_group; >> struct delayed_work cfs_work; >> struct pci_epf *epf; >> int index; >> @@ -502,34 +503,28 @@ static struct configfs_item_operations pci_epf_ops = { >> .release = pci_epf_release, >> }; >> >> -static struct config_group *pci_epf_type_make(struct config_group *group, >> - const char *name) >> -{ >> - struct pci_epf_group *epf_group = to_pci_epf_group(&group->cg_item); >> - struct config_group *epf_type_group; >> - >> - epf_type_group = pci_epf_type_add_cfs(epf_group->epf, group); >> - return epf_type_group; >> -} >> - >> -static void pci_epf_type_drop(struct config_group *group, >> - struct config_item *item) >> -{ >> - config_item_put(item); >> -} >> - >> -static struct configfs_group_operations pci_epf_type_group_ops = { >> - .make_group = &pci_epf_type_make, >> - .drop_item = &pci_epf_type_drop, >> -}; >> - >> static const struct config_item_type pci_epf_type = { >> - .ct_group_ops = &pci_epf_type_group_ops, >> .ct_item_ops = &pci_epf_ops, >> .ct_attrs = pci_epf_attrs, >> .ct_owner = THIS_MODULE, >> }; >> >> +static void pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group(struct pci_epf_group *epf_group) >> +{ >> + struct config_group *group; >> + >> + group = pci_epf_type_add_cfs(epf_group->epf, &epf_group->group); >> + if (!group) >> + return; >> + >> + if (IS_ERR(group)) { >> + pr_err("failed to create epf type specific attributes\n"); >> + return; >> + } >> + >> + configfs_register_group(&epf_group->group, group); >> +} >> + >> static void pci_epf_cfs_work(struct work_struct *work) >> { >> struct pci_epf_group *epf_group; >> @@ -547,6 +542,8 @@ static void pci_epf_cfs_work(struct work_struct *work) >> pr_err("failed to create 'secondary' EPC interface\n"); >> return; >> } >> + >> + pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group(epf_group); >> } >> >> static struct config_group *pci_epf_make(struct config_group *group, >> -- >> 2.39.1 >> >

A PCI endpoint function driver can define function specific attributes using the add_cfs() endpoint driver operation. However, this attributes group is not created automatically when the function is created and rather relies on the user creating a directory within the endpoint function configfs directory to initialize the attributes. While working, this approach is dangerous as nothing prevents the user from creating multiple directories with differenti (wrong) names that all will contain the same attributes. Fix this by modifying pci_epf_cfs_work() to execute the new function pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group() which itself calls pci_epf_type_add_cfs() to obtain the function specific attribute group from the function driver. If the function driver defines an attribute group, pci_ep_cfs_add_type_group() then proceeds to register this group using configfs_register_group(), thus automatically exposing the configfs attributes to the user. With this change, there is no need for the user to create/delete directories in the endpoint function configfs directory. The pci_epf_type_group_ops group operations are thus removed.
