Subject: [PATCH v2 rtw-next 2/2] wifi: rtw89: usb: add serial_number and uuid sysfs attributes for 0x28de:0x2432
Date: Mon, 25 May 2026 16:51:48 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260525085148.35180-3-pkshih@realtek.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260525085148.35180-1-pkshih@realtek.com>
From: Johnson Tsai <wenjie.tsai@realtek.com>
Expose the device's Serial Number (SN) and UUID from EFUSE via two
read-only sysfs attributes, `serial_number` and `uuid`, on the ieee80211
phy device under the `rtw89_usb` attribute group.
This hardware identification information is essential for user-space
applications to uniquely identify, track, and manage specific Wi-Fi
adapters. For example, in automated factory provisioning or device
management systems, user-space tools rely on the EFUSE serial number and
UUID to bind configurations to specific physical adapters. Currently,
standard wireless APIs do not expose this low-level hardware
information, making these sysfs nodes the only viable solution for
user space to extract this data.
The attributes are gated behind a new RTW89_QUIRK_HW_INFO_SYSFS quirk,
enabled only for the VID 0x28de / PID 0x2432 device via the
dev_id_quirks field in rtw89_driver_info.
Example usage from user-space:
$ cat /sys/class/ieee80211/phy0/rtw89_usb/serial_number
3642000123
$ cat /sys/class/ieee80211/phy0/rtw89_usb/uuid
