    osduld: Add osdname & systemid sysfs at scsi_osd class · b6755ffb
    Sachin Bhamare authored
    This patch adds the support for following two read-only sysfs attributes
    to scsi_osd class members : osdname & systemid
    
    These attributes will show up as below in sysfs class hierarchy:
    /sys/class/scsi_osd/osdX/osdname
    /sys/class/scsi_osd/osdX/systemid
    
    The osdname & systemid are OSD device attributes which uniquely
    identify a device on the network, while it's IP and certainly
    it's /dev/osdX device path might change.
    Userspace utilities (e.g. mkfs.exofs) can parse these attributes to
    identify the correct OSD in safer and faster way.
    
    (Today osd apps open each device in the system and send a
     attributes query for these, in order to access the user
     requested device)
