[PATCH V2 1/2] of: Make device nodes kobjects so they show up in sysfs
Grant Likely

Thu Mar 21 22:24:56 EST 2013
Device tree nodes are already treated as objects, and we already want to
expose them to userspace which is done using the /proc filesystem today.
Right now the kernel has to do a lot of work to keep the /proc view in
sync with the in-kernel representation. If device_nodes are switched to
be kobjects then the device tree code can be a whole lot simpler. It
also turns out that switching to using /sysfs from /proc results in
smaller code and data size, and the userspace ABI won't change if
/proc/device-tree symlinks to /sys/device-tree
v2: switch to using sysfs bin_attributes which solve the problem of
reporting incorrect property size.

+What: /sys/firmware/ofw/../device-tree/
+Date: March 2013
+Contact: Grant Likely <grant.likely at secretlab.ca>
+Description:
+ When using OpenFirmware or a Flattened Device Tree to enumerate
+ hardware, the device tree structure will be exposed in this
+ directory.
+
+ It is possible for multiple device-tree directories to exist.
+ Some device drivers use a separate detached device tree which
+ have no attachment to the system tree and will appear in a
+ different subdirectory under /sys/firmware/ofw.
+
+ Userspace must not use the /sys/firmware/ofw/../device-tree
+ path directly, but instead should follow /proc/device-tree
+ symlink. It is possible that the absolute path will change
+ in the future, but the symlink is the stable ABI.
+
+ The /proc/device-tree symlink replaces the devicetree /proc
+ filesystem support, and has largely the same semantics and
+ should be compatible with existing userspace.
+
+ The contents of /sys/firmware/ofw/../device-tree is a
+ hierarchy of directories, one per device tree node. The
+ directory name is the resolved path component name (node
+ name plus address). Properties are represented as files
+ in the directory. The contents of each file is the exact
+ binary data from the device tree.
