Uacce (Unified/User-space-access-intended Accelerator Framework) targets to
provide Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) between accelerators and processes.
So accelerator can access any data structure of the main cpu.
This differs from the data sharing between cpu and io device, which share
data content rather than address.
Since unified address, hardware and user space of process can share the
same virtual address in the communication.

Uacce create a chrdev for every registration, the queue is allocated to
the process when the chrdev is opened. Then the process can access the
hardware resource by interact with the queue file. By mmap the queue
file space to user space, the process can directly put requests to the
hardware without syscall to the kernel space.

Hi,

Some superficial comments from me.
Thanks for the suggestion.

This one needs rewording but I'm not quite sure what
relatives are in this case.

This may break the sysfs rule of one thing per file. If you have
multiple regions, they should probably each have their own file
to give their size.
Is the rule must be applied?
Yes, it always must be followed. Please fix.

OK, understand. Have updated in v6.

Thanks for the patience.
