Commit Message

David Howells Oct. 15, 2019, 9:50 p.m. UTC
Create a general, global watch list that can be used for the posting of
device notification events, for such things as device attachment,
detachment and errors on sources such as block devices and USB devices.
This can be enabled with:

	CONFIG_DEVICE_NOTIFICATIONS

To add a watch on this list, an event queue must be created and configured:

        pipe2(fds, O_TMPFILE);
        ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_SIZE, 256);

and then a watch can be placed upon it using a system call:

        watch_devices(fds[1], 12, 0);

Unless the application wants to receive all events, it should employ
appropriate filters.  For example, to receive just USB notifications, it
could do:

	struct watch_notification_filter filter = {
		.nr_filters = 1,
		.filters = {
			[0] = {
				.type = WATCH_TYPE_USB_NOTIFY,
				.subtype_filter[0] = UINT_MAX;
			},
		},
	};
	ioctl(fds[1], IOC_WATCH_QUEUE_SET_FILTER, &filter);

+Global Device Watch List
+========================
+
+There is a global watch list that hardware generated events, such as device
+connection, disconnection, failure and error can be posted upon.  It must be
+enabled using::
+
+	CONFIG_DEVICE_NOTIFICATIONS
+
+Watchpoints are set in userspace using the device_notify(2) system call.
+Within the kernel events are posted upon it using::
+
+	void post_device_notification(struct watch_notification *n, u64 id);
+
+where ``n`` is the formatted notification record to post.  ``id`` is an
+identifier that can be used to direct to specific watches, but it should be 0
+for general use on this queue.
