Description:
|
||
|
|
This directory contains list of directories of currently
|
||
|
|
supported mediated device types and their details for
|
||
|
|
<device>. Supported type attributes are defined by the
|
||
|
|
vendor driver who registers with Mediated device framework.
|
||
|
|
Each supported type is a directory whose name is created
|
||
|
|
by adding the device driver string as a prefix to the
|
||
|
|
string provided by the vendor driver.

This directory gives details of supported type, like name,

|
description, available_instances, device_api etc.
|
||
|
|
'device_api' and 'available_instances' are mandatory
|

|
|
attributes to be provided by vendor driver. 'name',
|

|
'description' and other vendor driver specific attributes
|

write-only file.
|

|
|
For example::
|

|
|
|

Description:
|
||
|
|
Writing '1' to this file destroys the mediated device. The
|
||
|
|
vendor driver can fail the remove() callback if that device
|
||
|
|
is active and the vendor driver doesn't support hot unplug.
|
||
|
|
Example::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/mdev/devices/<UUID>/remove
