1 What: /sys/bus/css/devices/.../type
3 Contact: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
4 Description: Contains the subchannel type, as reported by the hardware.
5 This attribute is present for all subchannel types.
7 What: /sys/bus/css/devices/.../modalias
9 Contact: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
10 Description: Contains the module alias as reported with uevents.
11 It is of the format css:t<type> and present for all
14 What: /sys/bus/css/drivers/io_subchannel/.../chpids
16 Contact: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
17 Description: Contains the ids of the channel paths used by this
18 subchannel, as reported by the channel subsystem
19 during subchannel recognition.
21 Note: This is an I/O-subchannel specific attribute.

24 What: /sys/bus/css/drivers/io_subchannel/.../pimpampom
26 Contact: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
27 Description: Contains the PIM/PAM/POM values, as reported by the
28 channel subsystem when last queried by the common I/O
29 layer (this implies that this attribute is not necessarily
30 in sync with the values current in the channel subsystem).
32 Note: This is an I/O-subchannel specific attribute.

35 What: /sys/bus/css/devices/.../driver_override
37 Contact: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
38 Description: This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When
39 specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written
40 to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the
41 device. The override is specified by writing a string to the
42 driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and
43 may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override).
44 This returns the device to standard matching rules binding.
45 Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the
46 device from its current driver or make any attempt to
47 automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a
48 matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device
49 will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to
50 opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as
51 "none". Only a single driver may be specified in the override,
52 there is no support for parsing delimiters.
54 Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this
55 file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e.,
56 the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device.
