0004 Description:
0005 This interface allows an admin to set an FC application

0007 identifier is typically a UUID that is associated with

0009 machine or container group. The application or logical
0010 entity utilizes a block device via the cgroup id.
0011 FC adapter drivers may query the identifier and tag FC
0012 traffic based on the identifier. FC host and FC fabric
0013 entities can utilize the application id and FC traffic
0014 tag to identify traffic sources.

0017 <cgroupid> is inode of the cgroup in hexadecimal
0018 <appid> is user provided string upto 128 characters
0019 in length.

0022 has an appid set, the new value will override the
0023 previous value.
