I naturally second that it is a needed feature, but I do not think 
binary format is justified. AFAIR it should be used for things like 
hw/fw standardised tables or firmware images, not when exporting a 
simple list of PIDs. It also precludes easy shell/script access and the 
benefit of avoiding parsing a short list is I suspect completely dwarfed 
by needing to parse all the related fdinfo etc.

Why this?

I don't quite get the kvmalloc for just one page (or why even a temporay 
buffer and not write into buf directly?).

Feels bad.. I would suggest exploring implementing a read callback 
(instead of show) and handling arbitrary size output.

Either NULL terminated or PAGE_SIZE/sizeof(pid) entries and not NULL 
terminated feels weird. If I got that right.

For me everything points towards going for text output.

Shouldn't BIN_ATTR_RO be used for binary files in sysfs?

Tvrtko

P.S. Or maybe it is time for drmfs? Where each client gets a directory 
and drivers can populate files. Such as per client logging streams and 
whatnot.
