| 5 | Provide a place in sysfs for the device link objects in the | |
| 6 | kernel at any given time. The name of a device link directory, | |
| 90b109d5 | 7 | denoted as ... above, is of the form <supplier>--<consumer> |
| e020ff61 SK |
8 | where <supplier> is the supplier bus:device name and <consumer> |
| 9 | is the consumer bus:device name. | |

| 14 | Description: | |
| 15 | This file indicates if the device link will ever be | |
| 16 | automatically removed by the driver core when the consumer and | |
| 17 | supplier devices themselves are still present. | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | This will be one of the following strings: | |

| 54a19b4d MCC |
21 | - 'consumer unbind' |
| 22 | - 'supplier unbind' | |
| 23 | - 'never' | |
| 287905e6 SK |
24 | |
| 25 | 'consumer unbind' means the device link will be removed when | |
| 26 | the consumer's driver is unbound from the consumer device. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | 'supplier unbind' means the device link will be removed when | |
| 29 | the supplier's driver is unbound from the supplier device. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | 'never' means the device link will not be automatically removed | |
| 32 | when as long as the supplier and consumer devices themselves | |
| 33 | are still present. | |

| 44 | Description: | |
| 45 | This file indicates if the device link has any impact on the | |
| 46 | runtime power management behavior of the consumer and supplier | |
| 47 | devices. For example: Making sure the supplier doesn't enter | |
| 48 | runtime suspend while the consumer is active. | |

| 50 | This will be one of the following strings: | |

| 59 | Contact: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> | |
| 60 | Description: | |
| 61 | This file indicates the status of the device link. The status | |
| 62 | of a device link is affected by whether the supplier and | |
| 63 | consumer devices have been bound to their corresponding | |
| 64 | drivers. The status of a device link also affects the binding | |
| 65 | and unbinding of the supplier and consumer devices with their | |
| 66 | drivers and also affects whether the software state of the | |
| 67 | supplier device is synced with the hardware state of the | |
| 68 | supplier device after boot up. | |
| 69 | See also: sysfs-devices-state_synced. | |
| 70 | ||
| 71 | This will be one of the following strings: | |

73 | - 'not tracked' |
| 74 | - 'dormant' | |
| 75 | - 'available' | |
| 76 | - 'consumer probing' | |
| 77 | - 'active' | |
| 78 | - 'supplier unbinding' | |
| 79 | - 'unknown' | |
| 287905e6 SK |
80 | |
| 81 | 'not tracked' means this device link does not track the status | |
| 82 | and has no impact on the binding, unbinding and syncing the | |
| 83 | hardware and software device state. | |
| 84 | ||
| 85 | 'dormant' means the supplier and the consumer devices have not | |
| 86 | bound to their driver. | |
| 87 | ||
| 88 | 'available' means the supplier has bound to its driver and is | |
| 89 | available to supply resources to the consumer device. | |
| 90 | ||
| 91 | 'consumer probing' means the consumer device is currently | |
| 92 | trying to bind to its driver. | |
| 93 | ||
| 94 | 'active' means the supplier and consumer devices have both | |
| 95 | bound successfully to their drivers. | |
| 96 | ||
| 97 | 'supplier unbinding' means the supplier devices is currently in | |
| 98 | the process of unbinding from its driver. | |
| 99 | ||
| 100 | 'unknown' means the state of the device link is not any of the | |
| 101 | above. If this is ever the value, there's a bug in the kernel. | |

| 112 | Description: | |
| 113 | This file indicates if the device link is limited to only | |
| 114 | affecting the syncing of the hardware and software state of the | |
| 115 | supplier device. | |
| 116 | ||
| 117 | This will be one of the following strings: | |

121 | '1' Affects runtime power management |
| 122 | === ================================ | |
| 287905e6 SK |
123 | |
| 124 | '0' means the device link can affect other device behaviors | |
| 125 | like binding/unbinding, suspend/resume, runtime power | |
| 126 | management, etc. | |
| 127 | ||
| 128 | '1' means the device link will only affect the syncing of | |
| 129 | hardware and software state of the supplier device after boot | |
| 130 | up and doesn't not affect other behaviors of the devices. |
