11 		linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
12 Description:	Contains the module alias as reported with uevents.
13 		It is of the format css:t<type> and present for all
14 		subchannel types.

19 		linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
20 Description:	Contains the ids of the channel paths used by this
21 		subchannel, as reported by the channel subsystem
22 		during subchannel recognition.
23 
24 		Note: This is an I/O-subchannel specific attribute.

27 What:		/sys/bus/css/drivers/io_subchannel/.../pimpampom
28 Date:		December 2002
29 Contact:	Cornelia Huck <cornelia.huck@de.ibm.com>
30 		linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
31 Description:	Contains the PIM/PAM/POM values, as reported by the
32 		channel subsystem when last queried by the common I/O
33 		layer (this implies that this attribute is not necessarily
34 		in sync with the values current in the channel subsystem).
35 
36 		Note: This is an I/O-subchannel specific attribute.

39 What:		/sys/bus/css/devices/.../driver_override
40 Date:		June 2019
41 Contact:	Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com>
42 		linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
43 Description:	This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When
44 		specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written
45 		to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the
46 		device. The override is specified by writing a string to the
47 		driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and
48 		may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override).
49 		This returns the device to standard matching rules binding.
50 		Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the
51 		device from its current driver or make any attempt to
52 		automatically load the specified driver.  If no driver with a
53 		matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device
54 		will not bind to any driver.  This also allows devices to
55 		opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as
56 		"none".  Only a single driver may be specified in the override,
57 		there is no support for parsing delimiters.
58 
59 		Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this
60 		file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e.,
61 		the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device.
