What: /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name
Date: June 2011
KernelVersion: 3.3
Contact: Ohad Ben-Cohen <ohad@wizery.com>
Description:
Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote
processor. Channels are identified with a (textual) name,
which is maximum 32 bytes long (defined as RPMSG_NAME_SIZE in
rpmsg.h).
This sysfs entry contains the name of this channel.
What: /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../src
Date: June 2011
KernelVersion: 3.3
Contact: Ohad Ben-Cohen <ohad@wizery.com>
Description:
Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote
processor. Channels have a local ("source") rpmsg address,
and remote ("destination") rpmsg address. When an entity
starts listening on one end of a channel, it assigns it with
a unique rpmsg address (a 32 bits integer). This way when
inbound messages arrive to this address, the rpmsg core
dispatches them to the listening entity (a kernel driver).
This sysfs entry contains the src (local) rpmsg address
of this channel. If it contains 0xffffffff, then an address
wasn't assigned (can happen if no driver exists for this
channel).

is attached to this channel is exposing a service to the
remote processor. This make it a local rpmsg server,
and it is listening for inbound messages that may be sent
from any remote rpmsg client; it is not bound to a single
remote entity).
What: /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../announce
Date: June 2011
KernelVersion: 3.3
Contact: Ohad Ben-Cohen <ohad@wizery.com>
Description:
Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote
processor. Channels are identified by a textual name (see
/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name above) and have a local
("source") rpmsg address, and remote ("destination") rpmsg
address.
A channel is first created when an entity, whether local
or remote, starts listening on it for messages (and is thus
called an rpmsg server).
When that happens, a "name service" announcement is sent
to the other processor, in order to let it know about the
creation of the channel (this way remote clients know they
can start sending messages).
This sysfs entry tells us whether the channel is a local
server channel that is announced (values are either
true or false).
