Subject: [PATCH v1] PCI: hotplug: Add 'uevent' sysfs attribute to trigger slot events
Date: Wed,  1 Apr 2026 11:31:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401163152.632779-1-ramesh@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

Add a write-only 'uevent' sysfs attribute for synthesizing
uevents for a PCI slot. This extends the existing uevent
support which emits a KOBJ_ADD uevent in pci_hp_add() with
the ability to replay such uevents for cold plugged devices.
As such events are only emitted by hotplug capable PCI slots
so is the support for synthesizing them.

The change was validated by manually triggering 'add' uevent
for a specific hotplug PCI slot:

    $ echo "add $(uuidgen)" | sudo tee   \
                /sys/bus/pci/slots/<slot-id>/uevent
