      sysfs: Introduce a mechanism to hide static attribute_groups · 70317fd2
      Dan Williams authored
      Add a mechanism for named attribute_groups to hide their directory at
      sysfs_update_group() time, or otherwise skip emitting the group
      directory when the group is first registered. It piggybacks on
      is_visible() in a similar manner as SYSFS_PREALLOC, i.e. special flags
      in the upper bits of the returned mode. To use it, specify a symbol
      prefix to DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE(), and then pass that same prefix
      to SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() when assigning the @is_visible() callback:
      
      	DEFINE_SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix)
      
      	struct attribute_group $prefix_group = {
      		.name = $name,
      		.is_visible = SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE($prefix),
      	};
      
      SYSFS_GROUP_VISIBLE() expects a definition of $prefix_group_visible()
      and $prefix_attr_visible(), where $prefix_group_visible() just returns
      true / false and $prefix_attr_visible() behaves as normal.
      
      The motivation for this capability is to centralize PCI device
      authentication in the PCI core with a named sysfs group while keeping
      that group hidden for devices and platforms that do not meet the
      requirements. In a PCI topology, most devices will not support
      authentication, a small subset will support just PCI CMA (Component
      Measurement and Authentication), a smaller subset will support PCI CMA +
      PCIe IDE (Link Integrity and Encryption), and only next generation
      server hosts will start to include a platform TSM (TEE Security
      Manager).
      
      Without this capability the alternatives are:
      
      * Check if all attributes are invisible and if so, hide the directory.
        Beyond trouble getting this to work [1], this is an ABI change for
        scenarios if userspace happens to depend on group visibility absent any
        attributes. I.e. this new capability avoids regression since it does
        not retroactively apply to existing cases.
      
      * Publish an empty /sys/bus/pci/devices/$pdev/tsm/ directory for all PCI
        devices (i.e. for the case when TSM platform support is present, but
        device support is absent). Unfortunate that this will be a vestigial
        empty directory in the vast majority of cases.
      
      * Reintroduce usage of runtime calls to sysfs_{create,remove}_group()
        in the PCI core. Bjorn has already indicated that he does not want to
        see any growth of pci_sysfs_init() [2].
      
      * Drop the named group and simulate a directory by prefixing all
        TSM-related attributes with "tsm_". Unfortunate to not use the naming
        capability of a sysfs group as intended.
      
      In comparison, there is a small potential for regression if for some
      reason an @is_visible() callback had dependencies on how many times it
      was called. Additionally, it is no longer an error to update a group
      that does not have its directory already present, and it is no longer a
      WARN() to remove a group that was never visible.
