The current rpmsg_client_sample uses a fixed number of messages to
be sent to each instance. This is currently set at 100. Introduce
an optional module parameter 'count' so that the number of messages
to be exchanged can be made flexible.

I thought Greg KH doesn't want any new code to have module_param call,
right? Are we Ok here or I am missing something here.

Can you point me to the thread where this was discussed/decided?

Rather than sending N messages as fast as possible to any sample channel
that comes up, how about making the sample create a debugfs entry that
we can write messages to from user space?
That would make it possible to improve the handling of multiple
remoteprocs and would allow for a variation in message lengths etc.

Wouldn't it be better to make it sysfs rather than debugfs knob?

This sample demonstrates a kernel-level rpmsg usage, and I would prefer
to maintain the current simplicity, and not add in any userspace
interaction. That perhaps can be done as a different sample. I use this
sample to serve as the basic test for checking the rpmsg transport
functionality with multiple remoteprocs and/or multiple instances per
remoteproc at the same time. The count parameter helps me with both
early Silicon development, as well as exercising increased message
exchanges so that the vring buffers are cycled.

FWIW, this already support multiple instances from the same remoteproc
or different remoteproc.
