      lightnvm: propagate device_add() error code · 1e3aeae4
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      device_add() may fail, and all callers are supposed to check the
      return value, but one new user in lightnvm doesn't:
      
      drivers/lightnvm/sysfs.c: In function 'nvm_sysfs_register_dev':
      drivers/lightnvm/sysfs.c:184:2: error: ignoring return value of 'device_add',
        declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
      
      This changes the caller to propagate any error codes, which avoids
      the warning.

      lightnvm: expose device geometry through sysfs · 40267efd
      Simon A. F. Lund 提交于
      For a host to access an Open-Channel SSD, it has to know its geometry,
      so that it writes and reads at the appropriate device bounds.
      
      Currently, the geometry information is kept within the kernel, and not
      exported to user-space for consumption. This patch exposes the
      configuration through sysfs and enables user-space libraries, such as
      liblightnvm, to use the sysfs implementation to get the geometry of an
      Open-Channel SSD.
      
      The sysfs entries are stored within the device hierarchy, and can be
      found using the "lightnvm" device type.
      
      An example configuration looks like this:
      
      /sys/class/nvme/
