Subject: [PATCH v8 1/1] PCI/sysfs: Expose PCI device serial number
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 05:58:14 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250917125815.722952-2-thepacketgeek@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250917125815.722952-1-thepacketgeek@gmail.com>
Add a single sysfs read-only interface for reading PCI device serial
numbers from userspace in a programmatic way. This device attribute
uses the same hexadecimal 1-byte dashed formatting as lspci serial number
capability output. If a device doesn't support the serial number
capability, the serial_number sysfs attribute will not be visible.
