Subject: [PATCH 15/46] cxl/Documentation: List attribute permissions
Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2022 19:46:52 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <165603881198.551046.12893348287451903699.stgit@dwillia2-xfh> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <165603869943.551046.3498980330327696732.stgit@dwillia2-xfh>

Clarify the access permission of CXL sysfs attributes in the
documentation to help development of userspace tooling.
