Why can't this be individual files and values ?

The System manager firmware provides a command "syslog" to dump
all the information, I just follow same.
With individual files, some values may not be consistent, because
system behaviour may change during reading two files.

You definitely need to convince Greg if you take this approach. I am sure
he prefers single value sysfs files.

...ah...so you basically cast to void a structure of u32 words and then
expect that the firmware perfectly aligned with how the struct is
defined here....size checks assures no out-of-bounds BUT the meaning of
he blob itself is entirely up to FW and kernel being aligned, since no
type checking is done of any kind and fields are NOT reference by
name...so may I ask why ? ..also because the scmi_imx_misc_syslog seems
pretty tiny to need iterators to parse back the reply...do you have so
tiny transpotr message size ?
..anyway I would suggest at least to add some sort of version-field to
the struct so that at least you can detect if the FW spits out something
that is not what your driver expect or is ready to handle...especially
if you plan to extend or modify the layout of the structs in the future.

...so some of this stuff Build/Silicon/BoaRD info has pretty much
'forever' lifetime...are you sure you want to query them out of the FW
each time you issue a sysfs show ?
Cannot you simply dump this stuff once for all at probve time and
instead query misc_cfg_info() upon each show to refresh only the data
that will change ?
(this also corroborates my idea that you should somehow partition this
data into distinct structs by their lifetime...
Thanks,

I thought to use "u32 *syslog", but this needs a cast in
misc_syslog(x,y,(u32 *)syslog), or I could directly change
the misc_syslog function prototype to use 'struct scmi_imx_misc_syslog *'.
No specific reason, just think 'void *' could avoid a cast.
..also because the scmi_imx_misc_syslog seems
>pretty tiny to need iterators to parse back the reply...do you have so

The transport memory size is 0x80 bytes, it could cover the current
syslog, but I am not sure whether in future, the firmware could
extend to add more information.
In our firmware there is one more field that I not include in this patchset,
because it is default not built in in firmware:
typedef struct
{
/*! System sleep record */
dev_sm_sys_sleep_rec_t sysSleepRecord;
/*! Device error log */
uint32_t devErrLog;
#ifdef DEV_SM_MSG_PROF_CNT
/*! Message profiling record */
dev_sm_sys_msg_rec_t sysMsgRecord;
#endif
} dev_sm_syslog_t;
typedef struct
{
uint32_t scmiChannel; /*!< Caller SCMI channel */
uint32_t chanType; /*!< SCMI channel type */
uint32_t protocolId; /*!< SCMI protocol ID */
uint32_t msgId; /*!< SCMI message ID */
uint32_t msgLatUsec; /*!< Message latency */
} dev_sm_sys_msg_prof_t;
/*!
* Message profile record
*/
typedef struct
{
/*! MSG profile log */
dev_sm_sys_msg_prof_t msgProf[DEV_SM_MSG_PROF_CNT];
} dev_sm_sys_msg_rec_t;
With profiling, we need iterator to get all the information.
In our default FW build, DEV_SM_MSG_PROF_CNT is not defined, but
I could keep iterator in case DEV_SM_MSG_PROF_CNT enabled in future.

Would you please share more insights on what version is needed here?
You mean add a field for syslog protocol as below?
struct scmi_imx_misc_syslog {
uint32_t version; //Set as protocol version and display it in sysfs show ops?
struct scmi_imx_misc_sys_sleep_rec syssleeprecord;
uint32_t deverrlog;
};

Just take what our firmware console displays.
And in case the firmware does not have a dedicated uart on some
boards, using syslog to show similar info would be prefered,
so ...

In next version, I will change to use probe to query the information and
use sysfs to give userspace an interface to get the queried information.
