Right. Is there a rigid naming convention for these files? I don't see any obvious pattern and there's no documentation for file names in here: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/README The legacy TPM 1.x sysfs attributes are in a file named as sysfs-class-tpm. Maybe we could: * Rename existing sysfs-class-tpm as sysfs-class-tpm1 * Rename sysfs-driver-ppi as sysfs-class-tpm What do you think? I don't know exactly what to do here. That is the reason I haven't updated the documentation yet. > > diff --git a/fs/kernfs/dir.c b/fs/kernfs/dir.c > > index 6acc964..749cea3 100644 > > +++ b/fs/kernfs/dir.c > > @@ -1225,6 +1225,7 @@ int kernfs_remove_by_name_ns(struct kernfs_node > > *parent, const char *name, > > else > > return -ENOENT; > > } > > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kernfs_remove_by_name_ns); > > ?? > I don't see this being called My bad, it is clutter in the patch file.
