Introduce dev_busid, which exports the device-id associated with the io-subchannel (and message-subchannel). The dev_busid indicates that of the device which may be physically installed on the corrosponding subchannel. The dev_busid value "none" indicates that the subchannel is not valid, there is no I/O device currently associated with the subchannel. The dev_busid information would be helpful to write device-specific udev-rules associated with the subchannel. The dev_busid interface would be available even when the sch is not bound to any driver or if there is no operational device connected on it. Hence this attribute can be used to write udev-rules which are specific to the device associated with the subchannel.

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.
