Subject: [PATCH v8 1/6] workqueue: Simplify unbound sysfs attribute registration
Date: Wed, 4 Nov 2026 09:52:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104095225.32654-2-tvrtko.ursulin@igalia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104095225.32654-1-tvrtko.ursulin@igalia.com>
Instead of manually registering each attribute we can put them in an
attribute group with a visibility check and device core will handle the
rest, which simplifies the registration and error unwind.

v2:
* Fix accidental rename of affinity_scope.
v3:
* SYSFS_GROUP_INVISIBLE should not be used for un-named groups.
v4:
* Use DEVICE_ATTR_RW_NAMED. (Tejun)
