[LU-9667] LNet Kernel/Userspace Interface

• Type: New Feature

Description

LNetCtl commands are used to pull information from LNet and display them in YAML format. 

Also a decision is made to use sysfs for pulling simple key/value pair related information rom kernel and IOCTL for more complex operations. So the new LNetCtl commands will be added based on this.

This ticket will track the progress on adding the sysfs infrastructure and the new LNetCtl commands.
