From 8e996a2874bbbed30e8dfe881453825fc6b7654e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Shishkin Date: Tue, 3 May 2016 11:33:37 -0600 Subject: stm class: Support devices that override software assigned masters Some STM devices adjust software assigned master numbers depending on the trace source and its runtime state and whatnot. This patch adds a sysfs attribute to inform the trace-side software that master numbers assigned to software sources will not match those in the STP stream, so that, for example, master/channel allocation policy can be adjusted accordingly.
