Provide base enablement for using debugfs to expose internal data of an IOMMU driver. When called, create the /sys/kernel/debug/iommu directory. Emit a strong warning at boot time to indicate that this feature is enabled. This function is called from iommu_init, and creates the initial DebugFS directory. Drivers may then call iommu_debugfs_new_driver_dir() to instantiate a device-specific directory to expose internal data. It will return a pointer to the new dentry structure created in /sys/kernel/debug/iommu, or NULL in the event of a failure. Since the IOMMU driver can not be removed from the running system, there is no need for an "off" function. Signed-off-by: Gary R Hook <gary.hook@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
