+What: /sys/bus/rbd/
+Date: November 2010
+Contact: Yehuda Sadeh <yehuda@newdream.net>,
+ Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
+Description:
+
+Being used for adding and removing rbd block devices.
+
+Usage: <mon ip addr> <options> <pool name> <rbd image name> [snap name]
+
+ $ echo "192.168.0.1 name=admin rbd foo" > /sys/bus/rbd/add
+
+The snapshot name can be "-" or omitted to map the image read/write. A <dev-id>
+will be assigned for any registered block device. If snapshot is used, it will
+be mapped read-only.
+
+Removal of a device:
+
+ $ echo <dev-id> > /sys/bus/rbd/remove
+
+What: /sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major
+Date: December 2013
+KernelVersion: 3.14
+Contact: Sage Weil <sage@inktank.com>
+Description: Available only if rbd module is inserted with single_major
+ parameter set to true.
+ Usage is the same as for /sys/bus/rbd/add. If present,
+ should be used instead of the latter: any attempts to use
+ /sys/bus/rbd/add if /sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major is
+ available will fail for backwards compatibility reasons.
