Annotated Snippet
What: /sys/.../<device>/vfio-dev/vfioX/
Date: September 2022
Contact: Yi Liu <yi.l.liu@intel.com>
Description:
This directory is created when the device is bound to a
vfio driver. The layout under this directory matches what
exists for a standard 'struct device'. 'X' is a unique
index marking this device in vfio.Annotation
- Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
