+or writing to them.
+
+CAUTION: Do not write to the Embedded Controller if you don't know
+what you are doing! Rebooting afterwards also is a good idea.
+This can influence the way your machine is cooled and fans may
+not get switched on again after you did a wrong write.

+<para>The LIRC device interface is a bi-directional interface for
+transporting raw IR data between userspace and kernelspace. Fundamentally,
+it is just a chardev (/dev/lircX, for X = 0, 1, 2, ...), with a number
+of standard struct file_operations defined on it. With respect to
+transporting raw IR data to and fro, the essential fops are read, write

+<title>LIRC read fop</title>
+
+<para>The lircd userspace daemon reads raw IR data from the LIRC chardev. The
+exact format of the data depends on what modes a driver supports, and what
+mode has been selected. lircd obtains supported modes and sets the active mode
+via the ioctl interface, detailed at <xref linkend="lirc_ioctl"/>. The generally
+preferred mode is LIRC_MODE_MODE2, in which packets containing an int value
+describing an IR signal are read from the chardev.</para>

+<title>LIRC write fop</title>
+
+<para>The data written to the chardev is a pulse/space sequence of integer
+values. Pulses and spaces are only marked implicitly by their position. The
+data must start and end with a pulse, therefore, the data must always include
+an unevent number of samples. The write function must block until the data has
+been transmitted by the hardware.</para>

+<title>LIRC ioctl fop</title>
+
+<para>The LIRC device's ioctl definition is bound by the ioctl function
+definition of struct file_operations, leaving us with an unsigned int
+for the ioctl command and an unsigned long for the arg. For the purposes
+of ioctl portability across 32-bit and 64-bit, these values are capped
+to their 32-bit sizes.</para>
+
+<para>The following ioctls can be used to change specific hardware settings.
+In general each driver should have a default set of settings. The driver

+--- What is AppArmor? ---
+
+AppArmor is MAC style security extension for the Linux kernel. It implements
+a task centered policy, with task "profiles" being created and loaded
+from user space. Tasks on the system that do not have a profile defined for
+them run in an unconfined state which is equivalent to standard Linux DAC
+permissions.
+
+--- How to enable/disable ---
+

+Build the kernel
+
+If AppArmor is not the default security module it can be enabled by passing
+security=apparmor on the kernel's command line.
+
+If AppArmor is the default security module it can be disabled by passing
+apparmor=0, security=XXXX (where XXX is valid security module), on the

The 'test_device_edac' sample driver is located at the
bluesmoke.sourceforge.net project site for EDAC.
+=======================================================================
+NEHALEM USAGE OF EDAC APIs
+
+This chapter documents some EXPERIMENTAL mappings for EDAC API to handle
+Nehalem EDAC driver. They will likely be changed on future versions
+of the driver.
+
+Due to the way Nehalem exports Memory Controller data, some adjustments
+were done at i7core_edac driver. This chapter will cover those differences
+
+1) On Nehalem, there are one Memory Controller per Quick Patch Interconnect
+ (QPI). At the driver, the term "socket" means one QPI. This is
+ associated with a physical CPU socket.
+
+ Each MC have 3 physical read channels, 3 physical write channels and
+ 3 logic channels. The driver currenty sees it as just 3 channels.
+ Each channel can have up to 3 DIMMs.
+
+ The minimum known unity is DIMMs. There are no information about csrows.
+ As EDAC API maps the minimum unity is csrows, the driver sequencially
+ maps channel/dimm into different csrows.
+
+ For example, suposing the following layout:
+ Ch0 phy rd0, wr0 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
+ dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
+ dimm 1 1024 Mb offset: 4, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
+ Ch1 phy rd1, wr1 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
+ dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
+ Ch2 phy rd3, wr3 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
+ dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
+ The driver will map it as:
+ csrow0: channel 0, dimm0
+ csrow1: channel 0, dimm1
+ csrow2: channel 1, dimm0
+ csrow3: channel 2, dimm0
+
+exports one
+ DIMM per csrow.
+
+ Each QPI is exported as a different memory controller.
+
+2) Nehalem MC has the hability to generate errors. The driver implements this
+ functionality via some error injection nodes:
+
+ For injecting a memory error, there are some sysfs nodes, under
+ /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc?/:
+
+ inject_addrmatch/*:
+ Controls the error injection mask register. It is possible to specify
+ several characteristics of the address to match an error code:
+ dimm = the affected dimm. Numbers are relative to a channel;
+ rank = the memory rank;
+ channel = the channel that will generate an error;
+ bank = the affected bank;
+ page = the page address;
+ column (or col) = the address column.
+ each of the above values can be set to "any" to match any valid value.
+
+ At driver init, all values are set to any.
+
+ For example, to generate an error at rank 1 of dimm 2, for any channel,
+ any bank, any page, any column:
+ echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm
+ echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank
+
+ To return to the default behaviour of matching any, you can do:
+ echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm
+ echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank
+
+ inject_eccmask:
+ specifies what bits will have troubles,
+
+ inject_section:
+ specifies what ECC cache section will get the error:
+ 3 for both
+ 2 for the highest
+ 1 for the lowest
+
+ inject_type:
+ specifies the type of error, being a combination of the following bits:
+ bit 0 - repeat
+ bit 1 - ecc
+ bit 2 - parity
+
+ inject_enable starts the error generation when something different
+ than 0 is written.
+
+ All inject vars can be read. root permission is needed for write.
+
+ Datasheet states that the error will only be generated after a write on an
+ address that matches inject_addrmatch. It seems, however, that reading will
+ also produce an error.
+
+ For example, the following code will generate an error for any write access
+ at socket 0, on any DIMM/address on channel 2:
+
+ echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/channel
+ echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_type
+ echo 64 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_eccmask
+ echo 3 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_section
+ echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_enable
+ dd if=/dev/mem of=/dev/null seek=16k bs=4k count=1 >& /dev/null
+
+ For socket 1, it is needed to replace "mc0" by "mc1" at the above
+ commands.
+
+ The generated error message will look like:
+
+ EDAC MC0: UE row 0, channel-a= 0 channel-b= 0 labels "-": NON_FATAL (addr = 0x0075b980, socket=0, Dimm=0, Channel=2, syndrome=0x00000040, count=1, Err=8c0000400001009f:4000080482 (read error: read ECC error))
+
+3) Nehalem specific Corrected Error memory counters
+
+ Nehalem have some registers to count memory errors. The driver uses those
+ registers to report Corrected Errors on devices with Registered Dimms.
+
+ However, those counters don't work with Unregistered Dimms. As the chipset
+ offers some counters that also work with UDIMMS (but with a worse level of
+ granularity than the default ones), the driver exposes those registers for
+ UDIMM memories.
+
+ They can be read by looking at the contents of all_channel_counts/
+
+ $ for i in /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/*; do echo $i; cat $i; done
+ /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm0
+ 0
+ /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm1
+ 0
+ /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm2
+ 0
+
+ What happens here is that errors on different csrows, but at the same
+ dimm number will increment the same counter.
+ So, in this memory mapping:
+ csrow0: channel 0, dimm0
+ csrow1: channel 0, dimm1
+ csrow2: channel 1, dimm0
+ csrow3: channel 2, dimm0
+ The hardware will increment udimm0 for an error at the first dimm at either
+ csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
+ The hardware will increment udimm1 for an error at the second dimm at either
+ csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
+ The hardware will increment udimm2 for an error at the third dimm at either
+ csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
+
+4) Standard error counters
+
+ The standard error counters are generated when an mcelog error is received
+ by the driver. Since, with udimm, this is counted by software, it is
+ possible that some errors could be lost. With rdimm's, they displays the
+ contents of the registers

Introduction

-report details for an arbitrary number of fingers.
+In order to utilize the full power of the new multi-touch and multi-user
+devices, a way to report detailed data from multiple contacts, i.e.,
+objects in direct contact with the device surface, is needed. This
+document describes the multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows kernel
+drivers to report details for an arbitrary number of contacts.
+
+The protocol is divided into two types, depending on the capabilities of the
+hardware. For devices handling anonymous contacts (type A), the protocol
+describes how to send the raw data for all contacts to the receiver. For
+devices capable of tracking identifiable contacts (type B), the protocol
+describes how to send updates for individual contacts via event slots.
+
+
+Protocol Usage
+--------------
+
+Contact details are sent sequentially as separate packets of ABS_MT
+events. Only the ABS_MT events are recognized as part of a contact
+packet. Since these events are ignored by current single-touch (ST)
+applications, the MT protocol can be implemented on top of the ST protocol
+in an existing driver.
+
+Drivers for type A devices separate contact packets by calling
+input_mt_sync() at the end of each packet. This generates a SYN_MT_REPORT
+event, which instructs the receiver to accept the data for the current
+contact and prepare to receive another.
+
+Drivers for type B devices separate contact packets by calling
+input_mt_slot(), with a slot as argument, at the beginning of each packet.
+This generates an ABS_MT_SLOT event, which instructs the receiver to
+prepare for updates of the given slot.
+
+All drivers mark the end of a multi-touch transfer by calling the usual
+input_sync() function. This instructs the receiver to act upon events
+accumulated since last EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT and prepare to receive a new set
+of events/packets.
+
+The main difference between the stateless type A protocol and the stateful
+type B slot protocol lies in the usage of identifiable contacts to reduce
+the amount of data sent to userspace. The slot protocol requires the use of
+the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID, either provided by the hardware or computed from
+the raw data [5].
+
+For type A devices, the kernel driver should generate an arbitrary
+enumeration of the full set of anonymous contacts currently on the
+surface. The order in which the packets appear in the event stream is not
+important. Event filtering and finger tracking is left to user space [3].
+
+For type B devices, the kernel driver should associate a slot with each
+identified contact, and use that slot to propagate changes for the contact.
+Creation, replacement and destruction of contacts is achieved by modifying
+the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID of the associated slot. A non-negative tracking id
+is interpreted as a contact, and the value -1 denotes an unused slot. A
+tracking id not previously present is considered new, and a tracking id no
+longer present is considered removed. Since only changes are propagated,
+the full state of each initiated contact has to reside in the receiving
+end. Upon receiving an MT event, one simply updates the appropriate
+attribute of the current slot.
+
+
+Protocol Example A
+------------------
+
+Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look
+like for a type A device:
+
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0]
+ SYN_MT_REPORT
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
+ SYN_MT_REPORT
+ SYN_REPORT
+The sequence after moving one of the contacts looks exactly the same; the
+raw data for all present contacts are sent between every synchronization
+with SYN_REPORT.
-Usage
------
+Here is the sequence after lifting the first contact:
+
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
+ SYN_MT_REPORT
+ SYN_REPORT
+
+And here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:
+
+ SYN_MT_REPORT
+ SYN_REPORT
+
+If the driver reports one of BTN_TOUCH or ABS_PRESSURE in addition to the
+ABS_MT events, the last SYN_MT_REPORT event may be omitted. Otherwise, the
+last SYN_REPORT will be dropped by the input core, resulting in no
+zero-contact event reaching userland.
-Anonymous finger details are sent sequentially as separate packets of ABS
-events. Only the ABS_MT events are recognized as part of a finger
-packet. The end of a packet is marked by calling the input_mt_sync()

-input_sync() function. This instructs the receiver to act upon events

-set of events/packets.
+
+Protocol Example B
+------------------
+
+Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look
+like for a type B device:
+
+ ABS_MT_SLOT 0
+ ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 45
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0]
+ ABS_MT_SLOT 1
+ ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 46
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
+ SYN_REPORT
+
+Here is the sequence after moving contact 45 in the x direction:
+
+ ABS_MT_SLOT 0
+ ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
+ SYN_REPORT
+
+Here is the sequence after lifting the contact in slot 0:
+
+ ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1
+ SYN_REPORT
+
+The slot being modified is already 0, so the ABS_MT_SLOT is omitted. The
+message removes the association of slot 0 with contact 45, thereby
+destroying contact 45 and freeing slot 0 to be reused for another contact.
+
+Finally, here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:
+
+ ABS_MT_SLOT 1
+ ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1
+ SYN_REPORT

+Emulating cr0.wp
+================
+
+If tdp is not enabled, the host must keep cr0.wp=1 so page write protection
+works for the guest kernel, not guest guest userspace. When the guest
+cr0.wp=1, this does not present a problem. However when the guest cr0.wp=0,
+we cannot map the permissions for gpte.u=1, gpte.w=0 to any spte (the
+semantics require allowing any guest kernel access plus user read access).
+
+We handle this by mapping the permissions to two possible sptes, depending
+on fault type:
+
+- kernel write fault: spte.u=0, spte.w=1 (allows full kernel access,
+ disallows user access)
+- read fault: spte.u=1, spte.w=0 (allows full read access, disallows kernel
+ write access)
+
+(user write faults generate a #PF)
+
+Large pages
+===========
+
+The mmu supports all combinations of large and small guest and host pages.
+Supported page sizes include 4k, 2M, 4M, and 1G. 4M pages are treated as
+two separate 2M pages, on both guest and host, since the mmu always uses PAE
+paging.
+
+To instantiate a large spte, four constraints must be satisfied:
+
+- the spte must point to a large host page
+- the guest pte must be a large pte of at least equivalent size (if tdp is
+ enabled, there is no guest pte and this condition is satisified)
+- if the spte will be writeable, the large page frame may not overlap any
+ write-protected pages
+- the guest page must be wholly contained by a single memory slot
+
+To check the last two conditions, the mmu maintains a ->write_count set of
+arrays for each memory slot and large page size. Every write protected page
+causes its write_count to be incremented, thus preventing instantiation of
+a large spte. The frames at the end of an unaligned memory slot have
+artificically inflated ->write_counts so they can never be instantiated.

+KVM-specific MSRs.
+Glauber Costa <glommer@redhat.com>, Red Hat Inc, 2010
+=====================================================
+
+KVM makes use of some custom MSRs to service some requests.
+At present, this facility is only used by kvmclock.
+
+Custom MSRs have a range reserved for them, that goes from
+0x4b564d00 to 0x4b564dff. There are MSRs outside this area,
+but they are deprecated and their use is discouraged.
+
+Custom MSR list
+--------
+
+The current supported Custom MSR list is:
+
+MSR_KVM_WALL_CLOCK_NEW: 0x4b564d00
+
+ data: 4-byte alignment physical address of a memory area which must be
+ in guest RAM. This memory is expected to hold a copy of the following
+ structure:
+
+ struct pvclock_wall_clock {
+ u32 version;
+ u32 sec;
+ u32 nsec;
+ } __attribute__((__packed__));
+
+ whose data will be filled in by the hypervisor. The hypervisor is only
+ guaranteed to update this data at the moment of MSR write.
+ Users that want to reliably query this information more than once have
+ to write more than once to this MSR. Fields have the following meanings:
+
+ version: guest has to check version before and after grabbing
+ time information and check that they are both equal and even.
+ An odd version indicates an in-progress update.
+
+ sec: number of seconds for wallclock.
+
+ nsec: number of nanoseconds for wallclock.
+
+ Note that although MSRs are per-CPU entities, the effect of this
+ particular MSR is global.
+
+ Availability of this MSR must be checked via bit 3 in 0x4000001 cpuid
+ leaf prior to usage.
+
+MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME_NEW: 0x4b564d01
+
+ data: 4-byte aligned physical address of a memory area which must be in
+ guest RAM, plus an enable bit in bit 0. This memory is expected to hold
+ a copy of the following structure:
+
+ struct pvclock_vcpu_time_info {
+ u32 version;
+ u32 pad0;
+ u64 tsc_timestamp;
+ u64 system_time;
+ u32 tsc_to_system_mul;
+ s8 tsc_shift;
+ u8 flags;
+ u8 pad[2];
+ } __attribute__((__packed__)); /* 32 bytes */
+
+ whose data will be filled in by the hypervisor periodically. Only one
+ write, or registration, is needed for each VCPU. The interval between
+ updates of this structure is arbitrary and implementation-dependent.
+ The hypervisor may update this structure at any time it sees fit until
+ anything with bit0 == 0 is written to it.
+
+ Fields have the following meanings:
+
+ version: guest has to check version before and after grabbing
+ time information and check that they are both equal and even.
+ An odd version indicates an in-progress update.
+
+ tsc_timestamp: the tsc value at the current VCPU at the time
+ of the update of this structure. Guests can subtract this value
+ from current tsc to derive a notion of elapsed time since the
+ structure update.
+
+ system_time: a host notion of monotonic time, including sleep
+ time at the time this structure was last updated. Unit is
+ nanoseconds.
+
+ tsc_to_system_mul: a function of the tsc frequency. One has
+ to multiply any tsc-related quantity by this value to get
+ a value in nanoseconds, besides dividing by 2^tsc_shift
+
+ tsc_shift: cycle to nanosecond divider, as a power of two, to
+ allow for shift rights. One has to shift right any tsc-related
+ quantity by this value to get a value in nanoseconds, besides
+ multiplying by tsc_to_system_mul.
+
+ With this information, guests can derive per-CPU time by
+ doing:
+
+ time = (current_tsc - tsc_timestamp)
+ time = (time * tsc_to_system_mul) >> tsc_shift
+ time = time + system_time
+
+ flags: bits in this field indicate extended capabilities
+ coordinated between the guest and the hypervisor. Availability
+ of specific flags has to be checked in 0x40000001 cpuid leaf.
+ Current flags are:
+
+ flag bit | cpuid bit | meaning
+ -------------------------------------------------------------
+ | | time measures taken across
+ 0 | 24 | multiple cpus are guaranteed to
+ | | be monotonic
+ -------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ Availability of this MSR must be checked via bit 3 in 0x4000001 cpuid
+ leaf prior to usage.
+
+
+MSR_KVM_WALL_CLOCK: 0x11
+
+ data and functioning: same as MSR_KVM_WALL_CLOCK_NEW. Use that instead.
+
+ This MSR falls outside the reserved KVM range and may be removed in the
+ future. Its usage is deprecated.
+
+ Availability of this MSR must be checked via bit 0 in 0x4000001 cpuid
+ leaf prior to usage.

+ future. Its usage is deprecated.
+
+ Availability of this MSR must be checked via bit 0 in 0x4000001 cpuid

+
+ The suggested algorithm for detecting kvmclock presence is then:
+
+ if (!kvm_para_available()) /* refer to cpuid.txt */
+ return NON_PRESENT;
+
+ flags = cpuid_eax(0x40000001);
+ if (flags & 3) {

+Review checklist for kvm patches
+================================
+
+1. The patch must follow Documentation/CodingStyle and
+ Documentation/SubmittingPatches.
+
+2. Patches should be against kvm.git master branch.
+
+3. If the patch introduces or modifies a new userspace API:
+ - the API must be documented in Documentation/kvm/api.txt
+ - the API must be discoverable using KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
+
+4. New state must include support for save/restore.
+
+5. New features must default to off (userspace should explicitly request them).
+ Performance improvements can and should default to on.
+
+6. New cpu features should be exposed via KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID2
+
+7. Emulator changes should be accompanied by unit tests for qemu-kvm.git
+ kvm/test directory.
+
+8. Changes should be vendor neutral when possible. Changes to common code
+ are better than duplicating changes to vendor code.
+
+9. Similarly, prefer changes to arch independent code than to arch dependent
+ code.
+
+10. User/kernel interfaces and guest/host interfaces must be 64-bit clean
+ (all variables and sizes naturally aligned on 64-bit; use specific types
+ only - u64 rather than ulong).
+
+11. New guest visible features must either be documented in a hardware manual
+ or be accompanied by documentation.
+
+12. Features must be robust against reset and kexec - for example, shared
+ host/guest memory must be unshared to prevent the host from writing to
+ guest memory that the guest has not reserved for this purpose.

+This feature is not included in the thinkpad driver anymore.
+Instead the EC can be accessed through /sys/kernel/debug/ec with
+a userspace tool which can be found here:
+ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/trenn/sources/ec
+Use it to determine the register holding the fan
+speed on some models. To do that, do the following:
- make sure the battery is fully charged
- make sure the fan is running
- - run 'cat /proc/acpi/ibm/ecdump' several times, once per second or so
-
-The first step makes sure various charging-related values don't
-vary. The second ensures that the fan-related values do vary, since
-the fan speed fluctuates a bit. The third will (hopefully) mark the
-fan register with a star:

+Often fan and temperature values vary between
readings. Since temperatures don't change vary fast, you can take
several quick dumps to eliminate them.
