[V4,3/5] misc: mlx5ctl: Add info ioctl
Commit Message
From: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com>
Implement INFO ioctl to return the allocated UID and the capability flags
and some other useful device information.
Example:
$ sudo ./mlx5ctl mlx5_core.ctl.0
UCTX UID: 1
UCTX CAP: 0x3
DEV UCTX CAP: 0x3
USER CAP: 0x1d

struct mlx5ctl_info is small, why not put it on the stack or even copy
it directly from the original object, assuming it has no holes/padding?

Is there even a remote possibility of extending this structure in the
future? If so the size check will not allow you to be backwards
compatible. Should there be a version field in there or would you
just add a new ioctl altogether? Adding linux-api@vger.kernel.org to Cc.

Should you add anything to Documentation/ABI/ ? (Or add other
documentation for this driver?)

There's no original object, but yes storing it on the stack should work.

This was my original implementation, but Greg's preference is to allow no
extension to the ioctl structures, in case of extension required, new IOCTL
and structure should be introduced.

The driver doesn't expose any sysfs other than the IOCTLs, but yes
a documentation might be useful to make sure ABI is stable, most of the
other drivers point out to the uapi header for documentation.
