Add changes to support debugfs. The fastrpc directory will be
created which will carry debugfs files for all fastrpc processes.
The information of fastrpc user and channel contexts are getting
captured as part of this change.

Only build this file if debugfs is enabled.

And again, "debug.c"?
I'll add change to build this only if debugfs is enabled. Going forward I have 
plans to add
few more debug specific changes, maybe then I'll need to change the build rules 
again.

Why are you saving the debugfs file?  What do you need to do with it
that you can't just delete the whole directory, or look up the name
again in the future when removing it?
fl structure is specific to a process using fastrpc driver. The reason to save
this debugfs file is to delete is when the process releases fastrpc device.
If the file is not deleted, it might flood multiple files in debugfs directory.

As part of this change, only the file that is getting created by a process is
getting removed when process is releasing device and I don't think we
can clean up the whole directory at this point.
My 2c: it might be better to create a single file that conains
information for all the processes instead of that. Or use fdinfo data to
export process / FD information to userspace.
Thanks for your review. The reason of not having single file for all processes 
is that
I can run 100s of iteration for any process(say calculator) and every time the 
properties
of the process can differ(like buffer, session etc.). For this reason, I'm 
creating and
deleting the debugfs files for every process run.

Do you see any advantage of using fdinfo over debugfs? I'm not sure if we can 
add all
the information(like in debugfs) here.
Which information is actually useful / interesting for application
developers? If not for the fdinfo, I might still vote for a single file
rather than a pile of per-process data.
Let’s say I am trying to do debugfs read when 10+ or more sessions are
active per channel, then for pushing data of nth process in a single file, I
would have to wait for n-1 processes, by that time process data might get
changed. How do you suggest handling this?

I suggest you NEVER use debugfs for anything that you care about this
type of thing for.

debugfs is for debugging.  Don't expect to rely on it for anything
relating to performance, and many/most systems don't even have it
enabled.  It also can NOT be used for anything that actually is a real
functionality of the system, and MUST work properly if it is not enabled
or a failure happens with the creation of a debugfs file.

So why would this even be an issue, as surely you aren't expecting that
debugfs be the main api for your driver, right?  :)

thanks,

I am not going to rely on debugfs for anything related to performance or real functionality. It would be used for debugging alone. Concern here is if i push all processes data to one file, then data might get updated by the time nth process's data is pushed and I might not get get correct data for nth process.
