We just need to keep in mind that sysfs has more restrictions than debugfs.
E.g. one value per file, backward compatibility etc...
Apart from that I don't see any reason to not do it in sysfs.

The main reasoning and use case for sysfs would be the SMI CLI, since
unfortunately there is no ioctl support in there.

We also expose the firmware versions via ioctl which is what the UMDs
uses. If you'd prefer it in sysfs, we could do that too.

Hi Alex,
Currently we retrieve firmware versions from /sys/kernel/debug but this
requires debugfs being enabled and superuser privilege. Do you see a
concern we add firmware versions to amdgpu sysfs at
/sys/class/drm/cardX/device like vbios_version?
Regards,
Amber
