I'm ok with 'available_instances' as name of this file.
Yes, mdev device directory will have links to devices of that type. I
think that is part of mdev core module discussion. I'm trying to list
sysfs files for libvirt interface here to focus more on libvirt
interface. Hence didn't add that. I'll make sure to add all such details
in future.
Definitely you need provide those details since they also contain
libvirt interface, e.g. 'destroy' which we discussed should be in
mdev directory. Another example is class-specific attributes such
as 'resolution', etc. which you listed under 'display class'. All those
attributes should be moved to mdev directory. Only class ID is
required under each type.
Thanks
