2020-07-10	driver core: platform: expose numa_node to users in sysfs	Barry Song	1	-0/+10
	Some platform devices like ARM SMMU are memory-mapped and populated by ACPI/IORT. In this case, NUMA topology of those platform devices are exported by firmware as well. Software might care about the numa_node of those devices in order to achieve NUMA locality. This patch will show the numa_node for this kind of devices in sysfs. For those platform devices without numa, numa_node won't be visible.

2014-07-09	driver core: platform: add device binding path 'driver_override'	Kim Phillips	1	-0/+20
	Needed by platform device drivers, such as the upcoming vfio-platform driver, in order to bypass the existing OF, ACPI, id_table and name string matches, and successfully be able to be bound to any device, like so: echo vfio-platform > /sys/bus/platform/devices/fff51000.ethernet/driver_override echo fff51000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/devices/fff51000.ethernet/driver/unbind echo fff51000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/drivers_probe This mimics "PCI: Introduce new device binding path using pci_dev.driver_override", which is an interface enhancement for more deterministic PCI device binding, e.g., when in the presence of hotplug.
