This patch brings 3 reworked/new uevent changes:
* All AP uevents caused by an ap card or queue device now carry an
additional uevent env value MODE=<accel|cca|ep11>. Here is an
example:
KERNEL[1267.301292] add /devices/ap/card0a (ap)
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card0a
SUBSYSTEM=ap
DEVTYPE=ap_card
DEV_TYPE=000D
MODALIAS=ap:t0D
MODE=ep11 <- this is new
SEQNUM=1095
This is true for bind, unbind, add, remove, and change uevents
related to ap card or ap queue devices.
* On a change of the soft online attribute on a zcrypt queue or card
device a new CHANGE uevent is sent with an env value ONLINE=<0|1>.
Example uevent:
KERNEL[613.067531] change /devices/ap/card09/09.0011 (ap)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card09/09.0011
SUBSYSTEM=ap
ONLINE=0 <- this is new
DEVTYPE=ap_queue
DRIVER=cex4queue
MODE=cca
SEQNUM=1070
- On a change of the config state of an zcrypt card device a new
CHANGE uevent is sent with an env value CONFIG=<0|1>.
Example uevent:
KERNEL[876.258680] change /devices/ap/card09 (ap)
ACTION=change
DEVPATH=/devices/ap/card09
SUBSYSTEM=ap
CONFIG=0 <- this is new
DEVTYPE=ap_card
DRIVER=cex4card
DEV_TYPE=000D
MODALIAS=ap:t0D
MODE=cca
SEQNUM=1073
Setting a card config on/off causes the dependent queue devices to
follow the config state change and thus uevents informing about the
config state change for the queue devices are also emitted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
