+Description:
+ Count mode for channel Y. The ceiling and floor values for
+ Count Y are used by the count mode where required. The following
+ count modes are available:
+
+ normal:
+ Counting is continuous in either direction.
+
+ range limit:
+ An upper or lower limit is set, mimicking limit switches
+ in the mechanical counterpart. The upper limit is set to
+ the Count Y ceiling value, while the lower limit is set
+ to the Count Y floor value. The counter freezes at
+ count = ceiling when counting up, and at count = floor
+ when counting down. At either of these limits, the
+ counting is resumed only when the count direction is
+ reversed.
+
+ non-recycle:
+ The counter is disabled whenever a counter overflow or
+ underflow takes place. The counter is re-enabled when a
+ new count value is loaded to the counter via a preset
+ operation or direct write.
+
+ modulo-n:
+ A count value boundary is set between the Count Y floor
+ value and the Count Y ceiling value. The counter is
+ reset to the Count Y floor value at count = ceiling when
+ counting up, while the counter is set to the Count Y
+ ceiling value at count = floor when counting down; the
+ counter does not freeze at the boundary points, but
+ counts continuously throughout.

+Contact: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Read-only attribute that indicates the count direction of Count
+ Y. Two count directions are available: forward and backward.
+
+ Some counter devices are able to determine the direction of
+ their counting. For example, quadrature encoding counters can
+ determine the direction of movement by evaluating the leading
+ phase of the respective A and B quadrature encoding signals.
+ This attribute exposes such count directions.

+KernelVersion: 5.2
+Contact: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Whether channel Y counter is enabled. Valid attribute values are
+ boolean.
+
+ This attribute is intended to serve as a pause/unpause mechanism
+ for Count Y. Suppose a counter device is used to count the total
+ movement of a conveyor belt: this attribute allows an operator
+ to temporarily pause the counter, service the conveyor belt,
+ and then finally unpause the counter to continue where it had
+ left off.

+ Accumulated count is decremented.
+
+ pulse-direction:
+ Rising edges on signal A updates the respective count.
+ The input level of signal B determines direction.

In short, rcu_dereference() is -not- optional when you are going to
dereference the resulting pointer.
+
+
+WHICH MEMBER OF THE rcu_dereference() FAMILY SHOULD YOU USE?
+
+First, please avoid using rcu_dereference_raw() and also please avoid
+using rcu_dereference_check() and rcu_dereference_protected() with a
+second argument with a constant value of 1 (or true, for that matter).
+With that caution out of the way, here is some guidance for which
+member of the rcu_dereference() to use in various situations:
+
+1. If the access needs to be within an RCU read-side critical
+ section, use rcu_dereference(). With the new consolidated
+ RCU flavors, an RCU read-side critical section is entered
+ using rcu_read_lock(), anything that disables bottom halves,
+ anything that disables interrupts, or anything that disables
+ preemption.
+
+2. If the access might be within an RCU read-side critical section
+ on the one hand, or protected by (say) my_lock on the other,
+ use rcu_dereference_check(), for example:
+
+ p1 = rcu_dereference_check(p->rcu_protected_pointer,
+ lockdep_is_held(&my_lock));
+
+
+3. If the access might be within an RCU read-side critical section
+ on the one hand, or protected by either my_lock or your_lock on
+ the other, again use rcu_dereference_check(), for example:
+
+ p1 = rcu_dereference_check(p->rcu_protected_pointer,
+ lockdep_is_held(&my_lock) ||
+ lockdep_is_held(&your_lock));
+
+4. If the access is on the update side, so that it is always protected
+ by my_lock, use rcu_dereference_protected():
+
+ p1 = rcu_dereference_protected(p->rcu_protected_pointer,
+ lockdep_is_held(&my_lock));
+
+ This can be extended to handle multiple locks as in #3 above,
+ and both can be extended to check other conditions as well.
+
+5. If the protection is supplied by the caller, and is thus unknown
+ to this code, that is the rare case when rcu_dereference_raw()
+ is appropriate. In addition, rcu_dereference_raw() might be
+ appropriate when the lockdep expression would be excessively
+ complex, except that a better approach in that case might be to
+ take a long hard look at your synchronization design. Still,
+ there are data-locking cases where any one of a very large number
+ of locks or reference counters suffices to protect the pointer,
+ so rcu_dereference_raw() does have its place.
+
+ However, its place is probably quite a bit smaller than one
+ might expect given the number of uses in the current kernel.
+ Ditto for its synonym, rcu_dereference_check( ... , 1), and
+ its close relative, rcu_dereference_protected(... , 1).
+
+
+SPARSE CHECKING OF RCU-PROTECTED POINTERS
+
+The sparse static-analysis tool checks for direct access to RCU-protected
+pointers, which can result in "interesting" bugs due to compiler
+optimizations involving invented loads and perhaps also load tearing.
+For example, suppose someone mistakenly does something like this:
+
+ p = q->rcu_protected_pointer;
+ do_something_with(p->a);
+ do_something_else_with(p->b);
+
+If register pressure is high, the compiler might optimize "p" out
+of existence, transforming the code to something like this:
+
+ do_something_with(q->rcu_protected_pointer->a);
+ do_something_else_with(q->rcu_protected_pointer->b);
+
+This could fatally disappoint your code if q->rcu_protected_pointer
+changed in the meantime. Nor is this a theoretical problem: Exactly
+this sort of bug cost Paul E. McKenney (and several of his innocent
+colleagues) a three-day weekend back in the early 1990s.
+
+Load tearing could of course result in dereferencing a mashup of a pair
+of pointers, which also might fatally disappoint your code.
+
+These problems could have been avoided simply by making the code instead
+read as follows:
+
+ p = rcu_dereference(q->rcu_protected_pointer);
+ do_something_with(p->a);
+ do_something_else_with(p->b);
+
+Unfortunately, these sorts of bugs can be extremely hard to spot during
+review. This is where the sparse tool comes into play, along with the
+"__rcu" marker. If you mark a pointer declaration, whether in a structure
+or as a formal parameter, with "__rcu", which tells sparse to complain if
+this pointer is accessed directly. It will also cause sparse to complain
+if a pointer not marked with "__rcu" is accessed using rcu_dereference()
+and friends. For example, ->rcu_protected_pointer might be declared as
+follows:
+
+ struct foo __rcu *rcu_protected_pointer;
+
+Use of "__rcu" is opt-in. If you choose not to use it, then you should
+ignore the sparse warnings.

-The AML Debugger
-
-Copyright (C) 2016, Intel Corporation
-Author: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com>
-
-
-This document describes the usage of the AML debugger embedded in the Linux
-kernel.
-
-1. Build the debugger
-
- The following kernel configuration items are required to enable the AML
- debugger interface from the Linux kernel:
-
- CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
- CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUGGER_USER=m
-
- The userspace utilities can be built from the kernel source tree using
- the following commands:
-
- $ cd tools
- $ make acpi
-
- The resultant userspace tool binary is then located at:
-
- tools/power/acpi/acpidbg
-
- It can be installed to system directories by running "make install" (as a
- sufficiently privileged user).
-
-2. Start the userspace debugger interface
-
- After booting the kernel with the debugger built-in, the debugger can be
- started by using the following commands:
-
- # mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
- # modprobe acpi_dbg
- # tools/power/acpi/acpidbg
-
- That spawns the interactive AML debugger environment where you can execute
- debugger commands.
-
- The commands are documented in the "ACPICA Overview and Programmer Reference"
- that can be downloaded from
-
- https://acpica.org/documentation
-
- The detailed debugger commands reference is located in Chapter 12 "ACPICA
- Debugger Reference". The "help" command can be used for a quick reference.
-
-3. Stop the userspace debugger interface
-
- The interactive debugger interface can be closed by pressing Ctrl+C or using
- the "quit" or "exit" commands. When finished, unload the module with:
-
- # rmmod acpi_dbg
-
- The module unloading may fail if there is an acpidbg instance running.
-
-4. Run the debugger in a script
-
- It may be useful to run the AML debugger in a test script. "acpidbg" supports
- this in a special "batch" mode. For example, the following command outputs
- the entire ACPI namespace:
-
- # acpidbg -b "namespace"

+Describing and referring to LEDs in ACPI
+
+Individual LEDs are described by hierarchical data extension [6] nodes under the
+device node, the LED driver chip. The "reg" property in the LED specific nodes
+tells the numerical ID of each individual LED output to which the LEDs are
+connected. [3] The hierarchical data nodes are named "led@X", where X is the
+number of the LED output.
+
+Referring to LEDs in Device tree is documented in [4], in "flash-leds" property
+documentation. In short, LEDs are directly referred to by using phandles.
+
+While Device tree allows referring to any node in the tree[1], in ACPI
+references are limited to device nodes only [2]. For this reason using the same
+mechanism on ACPI is not possible. A mechanism to refer to non-device ACPI nodes
+is documented in [7].
+
+ACPI allows (as does DT) using integer arguments after the reference. A
+combination of the LED driver device reference and an integer argument,
+referring to the "reg" property of the relevant LED, is used to identify
+individual LEDs. The value of the "reg" property is a contract between the
+firmware and software, it uniquely identifies the LED driver outputs.
+
+Under the LED driver device, The first hierarchical data extension package list
+entry shall contain the string "led@" followed by the number of the LED,
+followed by the referred object name. That object shall be named "LED" followed
+by the number of the LED.

-Upgrading ACPI tables via initrd
-================================
-
-1) Introduction (What is this about)
-2) What is this for
-3) How does it work
-4) References (Where to retrieve userspace tools)
-
-1) What is this about
----------------------
-
-If the ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE compile option is true, it is possible to
-upgrade the ACPI execution environment that is defined by the ACPI tables
-via upgrading the ACPI tables provided by the BIOS with an instrumented,
-modified, more recent version one, or installing brand new ACPI tables.
-
-When building initrd with kernel in a single image, option
-ACPI_TABLE_OVERRIDE_VIA_BUILTIN_INITRD should also be true for this
-feature to work.
-
-For a full list of ACPI tables that can be upgraded/installed, take a look
-at the char *table_sigs[MAX_ACPI_SIGNATURE]; definition in
-drivers/acpi/tables.c.
-All ACPI tables iasl (Intel's ACPI compiler and disassembler) knows should
-be overridable, except:
- - ACPI_SIG_RSDP (has a signature of 6 bytes)
- - ACPI_SIG_FACS (does not have an ordinary ACPI table header)
-Both could get implemented as well.
-
-
-2) What is this for
--------------------
-
-Complain to your platform/BIOS vendor if you find a bug which is so severe
-that a workaround is not accepted in the Linux kernel. And this facility
-allows you to upgrade the buggy tables before your platform/BIOS vendor
-releases an upgraded BIOS binary.
-
-This facility can be used by platform/BIOS vendors to provide a Linux
-compatible environment without modifying the underlying platform firmware.
-
-This facility also provides a powerful feature to easily debug and test
-ACPI BIOS table compatibility with the Linux kernel by modifying old
-platform provided ACPI tables or inserting new ACPI tables.
-
-It can and should be enabled in any kernel because there is no functional
-change with not instrumented initrds.
-
-
-3) How does it work
--------------------
-
-# Extract the machine's ACPI tables:
-cd /tmp
-acpidump >acpidump
-acpixtract -a acpidump
-# Disassemble, modify and recompile them:
-iasl -d *.dat
-# For example add this statement into a _PRT (PCI Routing Table) function
-# of the DSDT:
-Store("HELLO WORLD", debug)
-# And increase the OEM Revision. For example, before modification:
-DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000000)
-# After modification:
-DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000001)
-iasl -sa dsdt.dsl
-# Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
-# They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the cpio
-# archive. Note that if the table put here matches a platform table
-# (similar Table Signature, and similar OEMID, and similar OEM Table ID)
-# with a more recent OEM Revision, the platform table will be upgraded by
-# this table. If the table put here doesn't match a platform table
-# (dissimilar Table Signature, or dissimilar OEMID, or dissimilar OEM Table
-# ID), this table will be appended.
-mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
-cp dsdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
-# A maximum of "NR_ACPI_INITRD_TABLES (64)" tables are currently allowed
-# (see osl.c):
-iasl -sa facp.dsl
-iasl -sa ssdt1.dsl
-cp facp.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
-cp ssdt1.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
-# The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first. Other, typically
-# compressed cpio archives, must be concatenated on top of the uncompressed
-# one. Following command creates the uncompressed cpio archive and
-# concatenates the original initrd on top:
-find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
-cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
-# reboot with increased acpi debug level, e.g. boot params:
-acpi.debug_level=0x2 acpi.debug_layer=0xFFFFFFFF
-# and check your syslog:
-[ 1.268089] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0._PRT]
-[ 1.272091] [ACPI Debug] String [0x0B] "HELLO WORLD"
-
-iasl is able to disassemble and recompile quite a lot different,
-also static ACPI tables.
-
-
-4) Where to retrieve userspace tools
-------------------------------------
-
-iasl and acpixtract are part of Intel's ACPICA project:
-http://acpica.org/
-and should be packaged by distributions (for example in the acpica package
-on SUSE).
-
-acpidump can be found in Len Browns pmtools:
-ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/acpidump
-This tool is also part of the acpica package on SUSE.
-Alternatively, used ACPI tables can be retrieved via sysfs in latest kernels:

-Linux ACPI Custom Control Method How To
-=======================================
-
-Written by Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
-
-
-Linux supports customizing ACPI control methods at runtime.
-
-Users can use this to
-1. override an existing method which may not work correctly,
- or just for debugging purposes.
-2. insert a completely new method in order to create a missing
- method such as _OFF, _ON, _STA, _INI, etc.
-For these cases, it is far simpler to dynamically install a single
-control method rather than override the entire DSDT, because kernel
-rebuild/reboot is not needed and test result can be got in minutes.
-
-Note: Only ACPI METHOD can be overridden, any other object types like
- "Device", "OperationRegion", are not recognized. Methods
- declared inside scope operators are also not supported.
-Note: The same ACPI control method can be overridden for many times,
- and it's always the latest one that used by Linux/kernel.
-Note: To get the ACPI debug object output (Store (AAAA, Debug)),
- please run "echo 1 > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/aml_debug_output".
-
-1. override an existing method
- a) get the ACPI table via ACPI sysfs I/F. e.g. to get the DSDT,
- just run "cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > /tmp/dsdt.dat"
- b) disassemble the table by running "iasl -d dsdt.dat".
- c) rewrite the ASL code of the method and save it in a new file,
- d) package the new file (psr.asl) to an ACPI table format.
- Here is an example of a customized \_SB._AC._PSR method,
-
- DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 1, "", "", 0x20080715)
- {
- Method (\_SB_.AC._PSR, 0, NotSerialized)
- {
- Store ("In AC _PSR", Debug)
- Return (ACON)
- }
- }
- Note that the full pathname of the method in ACPI namespace
- should be used.
- e) assemble the file to generate the AML code of the method.
- e.g. "iasl -vw 6084 psr.asl" (psr.aml is generated as a result)
- If parameter "-vw 6084" is not supported by your iASL compiler,
- please try a newer version.
- f) mount debugfs by "mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug"
- g) override the old method via the debugfs by running
- "cat /tmp/psr.aml > /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method"
-
-2. insert a new method
- This is easier than overriding an existing method.
- We just need to create the ASL code of the method we want to
- insert and then follow the step c) ~ g) in section 1.
-
-3. undo your changes
- The "undo" operation is not supported for a new inserted method
- right now, i.e. we can not remove a method currently.
- For an overridden method, in order to undo your changes, please
- save a copy of the method original ASL code in step c) section 1,
- and redo step c) ~ g) to override the method with the original one.
-
-
-Note: We can use a kernel with multiple custom ACPI method running,
- But each individual write to debugfs can implement a SINGLE
- method override. i.e. if we want to insert/override multiple
- ACPI methods, we need to redo step c) ~ g) for multiple times.
-
-Note: Be aware that root can mis-use this driver to modify arbitrary
- memory and gain additional rights, if root's privileges got
- restricted (for example if root is not allowed to load additional
- modules after boot).

-ACPICA Trace Facility
-
-Copyright (C) 2015, Intel Corporation
-Author: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com>
-
-
-Abstract:
-
-This document describes the functions and the interfaces of the method
-tracing facility.
-
-1. Functionalities and usage examples:
-
- ACPICA provides method tracing capability. And two functions are
- currently implemented using this capability.
-
- A. Log reducer
- ACPICA subsystem provides debugging outputs when CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is
- enabled. The debugging messages which are deployed via
- ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT() macro can be reduced at 2 levels - per-component
- level (known as debug layer, configured via
- /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer) and per-type level (known as
- debug level, configured via /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level).
-
- But when the particular layer/level is applied to the control method
- evaluations, the quantity of the debugging outputs may still be too
- large to be put into the kernel log buffer. The idea thus is worked out
- to only enable the particular debug layer/level (normally more detailed)
- logs when the control method evaluation is started, and disable the
- detailed logging when the control method evaluation is stopped.
-
- The following command examples illustrate the usage of the "log reducer"
- functionality:
- a. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when control methods
- are being evaluated:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "enable" > trace_state
- b. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when the specified
- control method is being evaluated:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "method" > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
- c. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when the specified
- control method is being evaluated for the first time:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "method-once" > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
- Where:
- 0xXXXXXXXX/0xYYYYYYYY: Refer to Documentation/acpi/debug.txt for
- possible debug layer/level masking values.
- \PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH: Full path of a control method that can be found
- in the ACPI namespace. It needn't be an entry
- of a control method evaluation.
-
- B. AML tracer
-
- There are special log entries added by the method tracing facility at
- the "trace points" the AML interpreter starts/stops to execute a control
- method, or an AML opcode. Note that the format of the log entries are
- subject to change:
- [ 0.186427] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Method Begin [0xf58394d8:\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.ECOK] execution.
- [ 0.186630] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905c88:If] execution.
- [ 0.186820] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905cc0:LEqual] execution.
- [ 0.187010] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905a20:-NamePath-] execution.
- [ 0.187214] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905a20:-NamePath-] execution.
- [ 0.187407] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
- [ 0.187594] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
- [ 0.187789] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905cc0:LEqual] execution.
- [ 0.187980] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905cc0:Return] execution.
- [ 0.188146] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
- [ 0.188334] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
- [ 0.188524] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905cc0:Return] execution.
- [ 0.188712] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905c88:If] execution.
- [ 0.188903] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Method End [0xf58394d8:\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.ECOK] execution.
-
- Developers can utilize these special log entries to track the AML
- interpretion, thus can aid issue debugging and performance tuning. Note
- that, as the "AML tracer" logs are implemented via ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT()
- macro, CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is also required to be enabled for enabling
- "AML tracer" logs.
-
- The following command examples illustrate the usage of the "AML tracer"
- functionality:
- a. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" logs when control
- methods are being evaluated:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "enable" > trace_state
- b. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" when the specified
- control method is being evaluated:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "method" > trace_state
- c. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" logs when the specified
- control method is being evaluated for the first time:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "method-once" > trace_state
- d. Filter out the method/opcode start/stop "AML tracer" when the
- specified control method is being evaluated:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "opcode" > trace_state
- e. Filter out the method/opcode start/stop "AML tracer" when the
- specified control method is being evaluated for the first time:
- # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
- # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
- # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
- # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
- # echo "opcode-opcode" > trace_state
-
- Note that all above method tracing facility related module parameters can
- be used as the boot parameters, for example:
- acpi.trace_debug_layer=0x80 acpi.trace_debug_level=0x10 \
- acpi.trace_method_name=\_SB.LID0._LID acpi.trace_state=opcode-once
-
-2. Interface descriptions:
-
- All method tracing functions can be configured via ACPI module
- parameters that are accessible at /sys/module/acpi/parameters/:
-
- trace_method_name
- The full path of the AML method that the user wants to trace.
- Note that the full path shouldn't contain the trailing "_"s in its
- name segments but may contain "\" to form an absolute path.
-
- trace_debug_layer
- The temporary debug_layer used when the tracing feature is enabled.
- Using ACPI_EXECUTER (0x80) by default, which is the debug_layer
- used to match all "AML tracer" logs.
-
- trace_debug_level
- The temporary debug_level used when the tracing feature is enabled.
- Using ACPI_LV_TRACE_POINT (0x10) by default, which is the
- debug_level used to match all "AML tracer" logs.
-
- trace_state
- The status of the tracing feature.
- Users can enable/disable this debug tracing feature by executing
- the following command:
- # echo string > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
- Where "string" should be one of the following:
- "disable"
- Disable the method tracing feature.
- "enable"
- Enable the method tracing feature.
- ACPICA debugging messages matching
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" during any method
- execution will be logged.
- "method"
- Enable the method tracing feature.
- ACPICA debugging messages matching
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" during method execution
- of "trace_method_name" will be logged.
- "method-once"
- Enable the method tracing feature.
- ACPICA debugging messages matching
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" during method execution
- of "trace_method_name" will be logged only once.
- "opcode"
- Enable the method tracing feature.
- ACPICA debugging messages matching
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" during method/opcode
- execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged.
- "opcode-once"
- Enable the method tracing feature.
- ACPICA debugging messages matching
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" during method/opcode
- execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged only once.
- Note that, the difference between the "enable" and other feature
- enabling options are:
- 1. When "enable" is specified, since
- "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" shall apply to all control
- method evaluations, after configuring "trace_state" to "enable",
- "trace_method_name" will be reset to NULL.
- 2. When "method/opcode" is specified, if
- "trace_method_name" is NULL when "trace_state" is configured to
- these options, the "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" will
- apply to all control method evaluations.

-In order to support ACPI open-ended hardware configurations (e.g. development
-boards) we need a way to augment the ACPI configuration provided by the firmware
-image. A common example is connecting sensors on I2C / SPI buses on development
-boards.
-
-Although this can be accomplished by creating a kernel platform driver or
-recompiling the firmware image with updated ACPI tables, neither is practical:
-the former proliferates board specific kernel code while the latter requires
-access to firmware tools which are often not publicly available.
-
-Because ACPI supports external references in AML code a more practical
-way to augment firmware ACPI configuration is by dynamically loading
-user defined SSDT tables that contain the board specific information.
-
-For example, to enumerate a Bosch BMA222E accelerometer on the I2C bus of the
-Minnowboard MAX development board exposed via the LSE connector [1], the
-following ASL code can be used:
-
-DefinitionBlock ("minnowmax.aml", "SSDT", 1, "Vendor", "Accel", 0x00000003)
-{
- External (\_SB.I2C6, DeviceObj)
-
- Scope (\_SB.I2C6)
- {
- Device (STAC)
- {
- Name (_ADR, Zero)
- Name (_HID, "BMA222E")
-
- Method (_CRS, 0, Serialized)
- {
- Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
- {
- I2cSerialBus (0x0018, ControllerInitiated, 0x00061A80,
- AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.I2C6", 0x00,
- ResourceConsumer, ,)
- GpioInt (Edge, ActiveHigh, Exclusive, PullDown, 0x0000,
- "\\_SB.GPO2", 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , )
- { // Pin list
- 0
- }
- })
- Return (RBUF)
- }
- }
- }
-}
-
-which can then be compiled to AML binary format:
-
-$ iasl minnowmax.asl
-
-Intel ACPI Component Architecture
-ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20140214-64 [Mar 29 2014]
-Copyright (c) 2000 - 2014 Intel Corporation
-
-ASL Input: minnomax.asl - 30 lines, 614 bytes, 7 keywords
-AML Output: minnowmax.aml - 165 bytes, 6 named objects, 1 executable opcodes
-
-[1] http://wiki.minnowboard.org/MinnowBoard_MAX#Low_Speed_Expansion_Connector_.28Top.29
-
-The resulting AML code can then be loaded by the kernel using one of the methods
-below.
-
-== Loading ACPI SSDTs from initrd ==
-
-This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from initrd and it is useful
-when the system does not support EFI or when there is not enough EFI storage.
-
-It works in a similar way with initrd based ACPI tables override/upgrade: SSDT
-aml code must be placed in the first, uncompressed, initrd under the
-"kernel/firmware/acpi" path. Multiple files can be used and this will translate
-in loading multiple tables. Only SSDT and OEM tables are allowed. See
-initrd_table_override.txt for more details.
-
-Here is an example:
-
-# Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
-# They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
-# cpio archive.
-# The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
-# Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
-# concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
-mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
-cp ssdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
-
-# Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
-# on top:
-find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
-cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
-
-== Loading ACPI SSDTs from EFI variables ==
-
-This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform, because it
-allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing the user defined SSDTs. There
-is also work underway to implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs
-and using this method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading
-mechanism when that will arrive.
-
-In order to load SSDTs from an EFI variable the efivar_ssdt kernel command line
-parameter can be used. The argument for the option is the variable name to
-use. If there are multiple variables with the same name but with different
-vendor GUIDs, all of them will be loaded.

+================================
+Upgrading ACPI tables via initrd
+================================
+
+What is this about
+==================
+
+If the ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE compile option is true, it is possible to
+upgrade the ACPI execution environment that is defined by the ACPI tables
+via upgrading the ACPI tables provided by the BIOS with an instrumented,
+modified, more recent version one, or installing brand new ACPI tables.
+
+When building initrd with kernel in a single image, option
+ACPI_TABLE_OVERRIDE_VIA_BUILTIN_INITRD should also be true for this
+feature to work.
+
+For a full list of ACPI tables that can be upgraded/installed, take a look
+at the char `*table_sigs[MAX_ACPI_SIGNATURE];` definition in
+drivers/acpi/tables.c.
+
+All ACPI tables iasl (Intel's ACPI compiler and disassembler) knows should
+be overridable, except:
+
+ - ACPI_SIG_RSDP (has a signature of 6 bytes)
+ - ACPI_SIG_FACS (does not have an ordinary ACPI table header)
+
+Both could get implemented as well.
+
+
+What is this for
+================
+
+Complain to your platform/BIOS vendor if you find a bug which is so severe
+that a workaround is not accepted in the Linux kernel. And this facility
+allows you to upgrade the buggy tables before your platform/BIOS vendor
+releases an upgraded BIOS binary.
+
+This facility can be used by platform/BIOS vendors to provide a Linux
+compatible environment without modifying the underlying platform firmware.
+
+This facility also provides a powerful feature to easily debug and test
+ACPI BIOS table compatibility with the Linux kernel by modifying old
+platform provided ACPI tables or inserting new ACPI tables.
+
+It can and should be enabled in any kernel because there is no functional
+change with not instrumented initrds.
+
+
+How does it work
+================
+::
+
+ # Extract the machine's ACPI tables:
+ cd /tmp
+ acpidump >acpidump
+ acpixtract -a acpidump
+ # Disassemble, modify and recompile them:
+ iasl -d *.dat
+ # For example add this statement into a _PRT (PCI Routing Table) function
+ # of the DSDT:
+ Store("HELLO WORLD", debug)
+ # And increase the OEM Revision. For example, before modification:
+ DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000000)
+ # After modification:
+ DefinitionBlock ("DSDT.aml", "DSDT", 2, "INTEL ", "TEMPLATE", 0x00000001)
+ iasl -sa dsdt.dsl
+ # Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+ # They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the cpio
+ # archive. Note that if the table put here matches a platform table
+ # (similar Table Signature, and similar OEMID, and similar OEM Table ID)
+ # with a more recent OEM Revision, the platform table will be upgraded by
+ # this table. If the table put here doesn't match a platform table
+ # (dissimilar Table Signature, or dissimilar OEMID, or dissimilar OEM Table
+ # ID), this table will be appended.
+ mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+ cp dsdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+ # A maximum of "NR_ACPI_INITRD_TABLES (64)" tables are currently allowed
+ # (see osl.c):
+ iasl -sa facp.dsl
+ iasl -sa ssdt1.dsl
+ cp facp.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+ cp ssdt1.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+ # The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first. Other, typically
+ # compressed cpio archives, must be concatenated on top of the uncompressed
+ # one. Following command creates the uncompressed cpio archive and
+ # concatenates the original initrd on top:
+ find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+ cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
+ # reboot with increased acpi debug level, e.g. boot params:
+ acpi.debug_level=0x2 acpi.debug_layer=0xFFFFFFFF
+ # and check your syslog:
+ [ 1.268089] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Routing Table [\_SB_.PCI0._PRT]
+ [ 1.272091] [ACPI Debug] String [0x0B] "HELLO WORLD"
+
+iasl is able to disassemble and recompile quite a lot different,
+also static ACPI tables.
+
+
+Where to retrieve userspace tools
+=================================
+
+iasl and acpixtract are part of Intel's ACPICA project:
+http://acpica.org/
+
+and should be packaged by distributions (for example in the acpica package
+on SUSE).
+
+acpidump can be found in Len Browns pmtools:
+ftp://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils/pmtools/acpidump
+
+This tool is also part of the acpica package on SUSE.
+Alternatively, used ACPI tables can be retrieved via sysfs in latest kernels:

+SSDT Overlays
+=============
+
+In order to support ACPI open-ended hardware configurations (e.g. development
+boards) we need a way to augment the ACPI configuration provided by the firmware
+image. A common example is connecting sensors on I2C / SPI buses on development
+boards.
+
+Although this can be accomplished by creating a kernel platform driver or
+recompiling the firmware image with updated ACPI tables, neither is practical:
+the former proliferates board specific kernel code while the latter requires
+access to firmware tools which are often not publicly available.
+
+Because ACPI supports external references in AML code a more practical
+way to augment firmware ACPI configuration is by dynamically loading
+user defined SSDT tables that contain the board specific information.
+
+For example, to enumerate a Bosch BMA222E accelerometer on the I2C bus of the
+Minnowboard MAX development board exposed via the LSE connector [1], the
+following ASL code can be used::
+
+ DefinitionBlock ("minnowmax.aml", "SSDT", 1, "Vendor", "Accel", 0x00000003)
+ {
+ External (\_SB.I2C6, DeviceObj)
+
+ Scope (\_SB.I2C6)
+ {
+ Device (STAC)
+ {
+ Name (_ADR, Zero)
+ Name (_HID, "BMA222E")
+
+ Method (_CRS, 0, Serialized)
+ {
+ Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
+ {
+ I2cSerialBus (0x0018, ControllerInitiated, 0x00061A80,
+ AddressingMode7Bit, "\\_SB.I2C6", 0x00,
+ ResourceConsumer, ,)
+ GpioInt (Edge, ActiveHigh, Exclusive, PullDown, 0x0000,
+ "\\_SB.GPO2", 0x00, ResourceConsumer, , )
+ { // Pin list
+ 0
+ }
+ })
+ Return (RBUF)
+ }
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
+which can then be compiled to AML binary format::
+
+ $ iasl minnowmax.asl
+
+ Intel ACPI Component Architecture
+ ASL Optimizing Compiler version 20140214-64 [Mar 29 2014]
+ Copyright (c) 2000 - 2014 Intel Corporation

+
+[1] http://wiki.minnowboard.org/MinnowBoard_MAX#Low_Speed_Expansion_Connector_.28Top.29
+
+The resulting AML code can then be loaded by the kernel using one of the methods
+below.
+
+Loading ACPI SSDTs from initrd
+==============================
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from initrd and it is useful
+when the system does not support EFI or when there is not enough EFI storage.
+
+It works in a similar way with initrd based ACPI tables override/upgrade: SSDT
+aml code must be placed in the first, uncompressed, initrd under the
+"kernel/firmware/acpi" path. Multiple files can be used and this will translate
+in loading multiple tables. Only SSDT and OEM tables are allowed. See
+initrd_table_override.txt for more details.
+
+Here is an example::
+
+ # Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+ # They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
+ # cpio archive.
+ # The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
+ # Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
+ # concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
+ mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+ cp ssdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+
+ # Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
+ # on top:
+ find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+ cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
+
+Loading ACPI SSDTs from EFI variables
+=====================================
+
+This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform, because it
+allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing the user defined SSDTs. There
+is also work underway to implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs
+and using this method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading
+mechanism when that will arrive.
+
+In order to load SSDTs from an EFI variable the efivar_ssdt kernel command line
+parameter can be used. The argument for the option is the variable name to
+use. If there are multiple variables with the same name but with different
+vendor GUIDs, all of them will be loaded.
+
+In order to store the AML code in an EFI variable the efivarfs filesystem can be
+used. It is enabled and mounted by default in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars in all
+recent distribution.
+
+Creating a new file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will automatically create a new
+EFI variable. Updating a file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will update the EFI
+variable. Please note that the file name needs to be specially formatted as
+"Name-GUID" and that the first 4 bytes in the file (little-endian format)
+represent the attributes of the EFI variable (see EFI_VARIABLE_MASK in
+include/linux/efi.h). Writing to the file must also be done with one write
+operation.
+
+For example, you can use the following bash script to create/update an EFI
+variable with the content from a given file::
+
+ #!/bin/sh -e
+
+ while ! [ -z "$1" ]; do
+ case "$1" in
+ "-f") filename="$2"; shift;;
+ "-g") guid="$2"; shift;;
+ *) name="$1";;
+ esac
+ shift
+ done
+
+ usage()
+ {
+ echo "Syntax: ${0##*/} -f filename [ -g guid ] name"
+ exit 1
+ }
+
+ [ -n "$name" -a -f "$filename" ] || usage
+
+ EFIVARFS="/sys/firmware/efi/efivars"
+
+ [ -d "$EFIVARFS" ] || exit 2

+ mount -t efivarfs none $EFIVARFS

+
+ # use a randomly generated GUID
+ [ -n "$guid" ] || guid="$(cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid)"
+
+ # efivarfs expects all of the data in one write
+ tmp=$(mktemp)

+ dd if=$tmp of="$EFIVARFS/$name-$guid" bs=$(stat -c %s $tmp)
+ rm $tmp

+Loading ACPI SSDTs from configfs
+================================
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from userspace via the configfs
+interface. The CONFIG_ACPI_CONFIGFS option must be select and configfs must be
+mounted. In the following examples, we assume that configfs has been mounted in

+

+case-insensitive file name lookups
+======================================================
+
+The case-insensitive file name lookup feature is supported on a
+per-directory basis, allowing the user to mix case-insensitive and
+case-sensitive directories in the same filesystem. It is enabled by
+flipping the +F inode attribute of an empty directory. The
+case-insensitive string match operation is only defined when we know how
+text in encoded in a byte sequence. For that reason, in order to enable
+case-insensitive directories, the filesystem must have the
+casefold feature, which stores the filesystem-wide encoding
+model used. By default, the charset adopted is the latest version of
+Unicode (12.1.0, by the time of this writing), encoded in the UTF-8
+form. The comparison algorithm is implemented by normalizing the
+strings to the Canonical decomposition form, as defined by Unicode,
+followed by a byte per byte comparison.
+
+The case-awareness is name-preserving on the disk, meaning that the file
+name provided by userspace is a byte-per-byte match to what is actually
+written in the disk. The Unicode normalization format used by the
+kernel is thus an internal representation, and not exposed to the
+userspace nor to the disk, with the important exception of disk hashes,
+used on large case-insensitive directories with DX feature. On DX
+directories, the hash must be calculated using the casefolded version of
+the filename, meaning that the normalization format used actually has an
+impact on where the directory entry is stored.
+
+When we change from viewing filenames as opaque byte sequences to seeing
+them as encoded strings we need to address what happens when a program
+tries to create a file with an invalid name. The Unicode subsystem
+within the kernel leaves the decision of what to do in this case to the
+filesystem, which select its preferred behavior by enabling/disabling
+the strict mode. When Ext4 encounters one of those strings and the
+filesystem did not require strict mode, it falls back to considering the
+entire string as an opaque byte sequence, which still allows the user to
+operate on that file, but the case-insensitive lookups won't work.

+NUMA Locality
+=============
+
+Some platforms may have multiple types of memory attached to a compute
+node. These disparate memory ranges may share some characteristics, such
+as CPU cache coherence, but may have different performance. For example,
+different media types and buses affect bandwidth and latency.
+
+A system supports such heterogeneous memory by grouping each memory type
+under different domains, or "nodes", based on locality and performance
+characteristics. Some memory may share the same node as a CPU, and others
+are provided as memory only nodes. While memory only nodes do not provide
+CPUs, they may still be local to one or more compute nodes relative to
+other nodes. The following diagram shows one such example of two compute
+nodes with local memory and a memory only node for each of compute node:
+
+ +------------------+ +------------------+
+ | Compute Node 0 +-----+ Compute Node 1 |
+ | Local Node0 Mem | | Local Node1 Mem |
+ +--------+---------+ +--------+---------+
+ | |
+ +--------+---------+ +--------+---------+
+ | Slower Node2 Mem | | Slower Node3 Mem |
+ +------------------+ +--------+---------+
+
+A "memory initiator" is a node containing one or more devices such as
+CPUs or separate memory I/O devices that can initiate memory requests.
+A "memory target" is a node containing one or more physical address
+ranges accessible from one or more memory initiators.
+
+When multiple memory initiators exist, they may not all have the same
+performance when accessing a given memory target. Each initiator-target
+pair may be organized into different ranked access classes to represent
+this relationship. The highest performing initiator to a given target
+is considered to be one of that target's local initiators, and given
+the highest access class, 0. Any given target may have one or more
+local initiators, and any given initiator may have multiple local
+memory targets.
+
+To aid applications matching memory targets with their initiators, the
+kernel provides symlinks to each other. The following example lists the
+relationship for the access class "0" memory initiators and targets::
+
+ # symlinks -v /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/access0/targets/
+ relative: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/access0/targets/nodeY -> ../../nodeY
+
+ # symlinks -v /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/
+ relative: /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/nodeX -> ../../nodeX
+
+A memory initiator may have multiple memory targets in the same access
+class. The target memory's initiators in a given class indicate the
+nodes' access characteristics share the same performance relative to other
+linked initiator nodes. Each target within an initiator's access class,
+though, do not necessarily perform the same as each other.
+
+================
+NUMA Performance
+================
+
+Applications may wish to consider which node they want their memory to
+be allocated from based on the node's performance characteristics. If
+the system provides these attributes, the kernel exports them under the
+node sysfs hierarchy by appending the attributes directory under the
+memory node's access class 0 initiators as follows::
+
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/
+
+These attributes apply only when accessed from nodes that have the
+are linked under the this access's inititiators.
+
+The performance characteristics the kernel provides for the local initiators
+are exported are as follows::
+
+ # tree -P "read*|write*" /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeY/access0/initiators/
+ |-- read_bandwidth
+ |-- read_latency
+ |-- write_bandwidth
+ `-- write_latency
+
+The bandwidth attributes are provided in MiB/second.
+
+The latency attributes are provided in nanoseconds.
+
+The values reported here correspond to the rated latency and bandwidth
+for the platform.
+
+==========
+NUMA Cache
+==========
+
+System memory may be constructed in a hierarchy of elements with various
+performance characteristics in order to provide large address space of
+slower performing memory cached by a smaller higher performing memory. The
+system physical addresses memory initiators are aware of are provided
+by the last memory level in the hierarchy. The system meanwhile uses
+higher performing memory to transparently cache access to progressively
+slower levels.
+
+The term "far memory" is used to denote the last level memory in the
+hierarchy. Each increasing cache level provides higher performing
+initiator access, and the term "near memory" represents the fastest
+cache provided by the system.
+
+This numbering is different than CPU caches where the cache level (ex:
+L1, L2, L3) uses the CPU-side view where each increased level is lower
+performing. In contrast, the memory cache level is centric to the last
+level memory, so the higher numbered cache level corresponds to memory
+nearer to the CPU, and further from far memory.
+
+The memory-side caches are not directly addressable by software. When
+software accesses a system address, the system will return it from the
+near memory cache if it is present. If it is not present, the system
+accesses the next level of memory until there is either a hit in that
+cache level, or it reaches far memory.
+
+An application does not need to know about caching attributes in order
+to use the system. Software may optionally query the memory cache
+attributes in order to maximize the performance out of such a setup.
+If the system provides a way for the kernel to discover this information,
+for example with ACPI HMAT (Heterogeneous Memory Attribute Table),
+the kernel will append these attributes to the NUMA node memory target.
+
+When the kernel first registers a memory cache with a node, the kernel
+will create the following directory::
+
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memory_side_cache/
+
+If that directory is not present, the system either does not not provide
+a memory-side cache, or that information is not accessible to the kernel.
+
+The attributes for each level of cache is provided under its cache
+level index::
+
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memory_side_cache/indexA/
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memory_side_cache/indexB/
+ /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memory_side_cache/indexC/
+
+Each cache level's directory provides its attributes. For example, the
+following shows a single cache level and the attributes available for
+software to query::
+
+ # tree sys/devices/system/node/node0/memory_side_cache/
+ /sys/devices/system/node/node0/memory_side_cache/
+ |-- index1
+ | |-- indexing
+ | |-- line_size
+ | |-- size
+ | `-- write_policy
+
+The "indexing" will be 0 if it is a direct-mapped cache, and non-zero
+for any other indexed based, multi-way associativity.
+
+The "line_size" is the number of bytes accessed from the next cache
+level on a miss.
+
+The "size" is the number of bytes provided by this cache level.
+
+The "write_policy" will be 0 for write-back, and non-zero for
+write-through caching.

+Intel Performance and Energy Bias Attribute in ``sysfs``
+========================================================
+
+The Intel Performance and Energy Bias Hint (EPB) value for a given (logical) CPU
+can be checked or updated through a ``sysfs`` attribute (file) under
+:file:`/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu<N>/power/`, where the CPU number ``<N>``
+is allocated at the system initialization time:
+
+``energy_perf_bias``
+ Shows the current EPB value for the CPU in a sliding scale 0 - 15, where
+ a value of 0 corresponds to a hint preference for highest performance
+ and a value of 15 corresponds to the maximum energy savings.
+
+ In order to update the EPB value for the CPU, this attribute can be
+ written to, either with a number in the 0 - 15 sliding scale above, or
+ with one of the strings: "performance", "balance-performance", "normal",
+ "balance-power", "power" that represent values reflected by their
+ meaning.
+
+ This attribute is present for all online CPUs supporting the EPB
+ feature.
+
+Note that while the EPB interface to the processor is defined at the logical CPU
+level, the physical register backing it may be shared by multiple CPUs (for
+example, SMT siblings or cores in one package). For this reason, updating the
+EPB value for one CPU may cause the EPB values for other CPUs to change.

+support bounded loops.
+
+Q: What are the verifier limits?
+--------------------------------
+A: The only limit known to the user space is BPF_MAXINSNS (4096).
+It's the maximum number of instructions that the unprivileged bpf
+program can have. The verifier has various internal limits.
+Like the maximum number of instructions that can be explored during
+program analysis. Currently, that limit is set to 1 million.
+Which essentially means that the largest program can consist
+of 1 million NOP instructions. There is a limit to the maximum number
+of subsequent branches, a limit to the number of nested bpf-to-bpf
+calls, a limit to the number of the verifier states per instruction,
+a limit to the number of maps used by the program.
+All these limits can be hit with a sufficiently complex program.
+There are also non-numerical limits that can cause the program
+to be rejected. The verifier used to recognize only pointer + constant
+expressions. Now it can recognize pointer + bounded_register.
+bpf_lookup_map_elem(key) had a requirement that 'key' must be
+a pointer to the stack. Now, 'key' can be a pointer to map value.
+The verifier is steadily getting 'smarter'. The limits are
+being removed. The only way to know that the program is going to
+be accepted by the verifier is to try to load it.
+The bpf development process guarantees that the future kernel
+versions will accept all bpf programs that were accepted by
+the earlier versions.

+===========================
+BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL
+===========================
+
+This document describes ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` program type that
+provides cgroup-bpf hook for sysctl.
+
+The hook has to be attached to a cgroup and will be called every time a
+process inside that cgroup tries to read from or write to sysctl knob in proc.
+
+1. Attach type
+**************
+
+``BPF_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` attach type has to be used to attach
+``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` program to a cgroup.
+
+2. Context
+**********
+
+``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` provides access to the following context from
+BPF program::
+
+ struct bpf_sysctl {
+ __u32 write;
+ __u32 file_pos;
+ };
+
+* ``write`` indicates whether sysctl value is being read (``0``) or written
+ (``1``). This field is read-only.
+
+* ``file_pos`` indicates file position sysctl is being accessed at, read
+ or written. This field is read-write. Writing to the field sets the starting
+ position in sysctl proc file ``read(2)`` will be reading from or ``write(2)``
+ will be writing to. Writing zero to the field can be used e.g. to override
+ whole sysctl value by ``bpf_sysctl_set_new_value()`` on ``write(2)`` even
+ when it's called by user space on ``file_pos > 0``. Writing non-zero
+ value to the field can be used to access part of sysctl value starting from
+ specified ``file_pos``. Not all sysctl support access with ``file_pos !=
+ 0``, e.g. writes to numeric sysctl entries must always be at file position
+ ``0``. See also ``kernel.sysctl_writes_strict`` sysctl.
+
+See `linux/bpf.h`_ for more details on how context field can be accessed.
+
+3. Return code
+**************
+
+``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` program must return one of the following
+return codes:
+
+* ``0`` means "reject access to sysctl";
+* ``1`` means "proceed with access".
+
+If program returns ``0`` user space will get ``-1`` from ``read(2)`` or
+``write(2)`` and ``errno`` will be set to ``EPERM``.
+
+4. Helpers
+**********
+
+Since sysctl knob is represented by a name and a value, sysctl specific BPF
+helpers focus on providing access to these properties:
+
+* ``bpf_sysctl_get_name()`` to get sysctl name as it is visible in
+ ``/proc/sys`` into provided by BPF program buffer;
+
+* ``bpf_sysctl_get_current_value()`` to get string value currently held by
+ sysctl into provided by BPF program buffer. This helper is available on both
+ ``read(2)`` from and ``write(2)`` to sysctl;
+
+* ``bpf_sysctl_get_new_value()`` to get new string value currently being
+ written to sysctl before actual write happens. This helper can be used only
+ on ``ctx->write == 1``;
+
+* ``bpf_sysctl_set_new_value()`` to override new string value currently being
+ written to sysctl before actual write happens. Sysctl value will be
+ overridden starting from the current ``ctx->file_pos``. If the whole value
+ has to be overridden BPF program can set ``file_pos`` to zero before calling
+ to the helper. This helper can be used only on ``ctx->write == 1``. New
+ string value set by the helper is treated and verified by kernel same way as
+ an equivalent string passed by user space.
+
+BPF program sees sysctl value same way as user space does in proc filesystem,
+i.e. as a string. Since many sysctl values represent an integer or a vector
+of integers, the following helpers can be used to get numeric value from the
+string:
+
+* ``bpf_strtol()`` to convert initial part of the string to long integer
+ similar to user space `strtol(3)`_;
+* ``bpf_strtoul()`` to convert initial part of the string to unsigned long
+ integer similar to user space `strtoul(3)`_;
+
+See `linux/bpf.h`_ for more details on helpers described here.
+
+5. Examples
+***********
+
+See `test_sysctl_prog.c`_ for an example of BPF program in C that access
+sysctl name and value, parses string value to get vector of integers and uses
+the result to make decision whether to allow or deny access to sysctl.
+
+6. Notes
+********
+
+``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` is intended to be used in **trusted** root
+environment, for example to monitor sysctl usage or catch unreasonable values
+an application, running as root in a separate cgroup, is trying to set.
+
+Since `task_dfl_cgroup(current)` is called at `sys_read` / `sys_write` time it
+may return results different from that at `sys_open` time, i.e. process that
+opened sysctl file in proc filesystem may differ from process that is trying
+to read from / write to it and two such processes may run in different
+cgroups, what means ``BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SYSCTL`` should not be used as a
+security mechanism to limit sysctl usage.
+
+As with any cgroup-bpf program additional care should be taken if an
+application running as root in a cgroup should not be allowed to
+detach/replace BPF program attached by administrator.

+Test Module
+===========
+
+Kselftest tests the kernel from userspace. Sometimes things need
+testing from within the kernel, one method of doing this is to create a
+test module. We can tie the module into the kselftest framework by
+using a shell script test runner. ``kselftest_module.sh`` is designed
+to facilitate this process. There is also a header file provided to
+assist writing kernel modules that are for use with kselftest:
+
+- ``tools/testing/kselftest/kselftest_module.h``
+- ``tools/testing/kselftest/kselftest_module.sh``
+
+How to use
+----------
+
+Here we show the typical steps to create a test module and tie it into
+kselftest. We use kselftests for lib/ as an example.
+
+1. Create the test module
+
+2. Create the test script that will run (load/unload) the module
+ e.g. ``tools/testing/selftests/lib/printf.sh``
+
+3. Add line to config file e.g. ``tools/testing/selftests/lib/config``
+
+4. Add test script to makefile e.g. ``tools/testing/selftests/lib/Makefile``
+
+5. Verify it works:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ # Assumes you have booted a fresh build of this kernel tree
+ cd /path/to/linux/tree
+ make kselftest-merge
+ make modules
+ sudo make modules_install
+ make TARGETS=lib kselftest
+
+Example Module
+--------------
+
+A bare bones test module might look like this:

+.. code-block:: c
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
+
+ #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt

-Simple Framebuffer
-
-A simple frame-buffer describes a frame-buffer setup by firmware or
-the bootloader, with the assumption that the display hardware has already
-been set up to scan out from the memory pointed to by the reg property.
-
-Since simplefb nodes represent runtime information they must be sub-nodes of
-the chosen node (*). Simplefb nodes must be named "framebuffer@<address>".
-
-If the devicetree contains nodes for the display hardware used by a simplefb,
-then the simplefb node must contain a property called "display", which
-contains a phandle pointing to the primary display hw node, so that the OS
-knows which simplefb to disable when handing over control to a driver for the
-real hardware. The bindings for the hw nodes must specify which node is
-considered the primary node.
-
-It is advised to add display# aliases to help the OS determine how to number
-things. If display# aliases are used, then if the simplefb node contains a
-"display" property then the /aliases/display# path must point to the display
-hw node the "display" property points to, otherwise it must point directly
-to the simplefb node.
-
-If a simplefb node represents the preferred console for user interaction,
-then the chosen node's stdout-path property should point to it, or to the
-primary display hw node, as with display# aliases. If display aliases are
-used then it should be set to the alias instead.
-
-It is advised that devicetree files contain pre-filled, disabled framebuffer
-nodes, so that the firmware only needs to update the mode information and
-enable them. This way if e.g. later on support for more display clocks get
-added, the simplefb nodes will already contain this info and the firmware
-does not need to be updated.
-
-If pre-filled framebuffer nodes are used, the firmware may need extra
-information to find the right node. In that case an extra platform specific
-compatible and platform specific properties should be used and documented,
-see e.g. simple-framebuffer-sunxi.txt .
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible: "simple-framebuffer"
-- reg: Should contain the location and size of the framebuffer memory.
-- width: The width of the framebuffer in pixels.
-- height: The height of the framebuffer in pixels.
-- stride: The number of bytes in each line of the framebuffer.
-- format: The format of the framebuffer surface. Valid values are:
- - r5g6b5 (16-bit pixels, d[15:11]=r, d[10:5]=g, d[4:0]=b).
- - a8b8g8r8 (32-bit pixels, d[31:24]=a, d[23:16]=b, d[15:8]=g, d[7:0]=r).
-
-Optional properties:
-- clocks : List of clocks used by the framebuffer.
-- *-supply : Any number of regulators used by the framebuffer. These should
- be named according to the names in the device's design.
-
- The above resources are expected to already be configured correctly.
- The OS must ensure they are not modified or disabled while the simple
- framebuffer remains active.
-
-- display : phandle pointing to the primary display hardware node
-
-Example:
-
-aliases {
- display0 = &lcdc0;
-}
-
-chosen {
- framebuffer0: framebuffer@1d385000 {
- compatible = "simple-framebuffer";
- reg = <0x1d385000 (1600 * 1200 * 2)>;

+description: |+
+ A simple frame-buffer describes a frame-buffer setup by firmware or
+ the bootloader, with the assumption that the display hardware has
+ already been set up to scan out from the memory pointed to by the
+ reg property.
+
+ Since simplefb nodes represent runtime information they must be
+ sub-nodes of the chosen node (*). Simplefb nodes must be named
+ framebuffer@<address>.
+
+ If the devicetree contains nodes for the display hardware used by a
+ simplefb, then the simplefb node must contain a property called
+ display, which contains a phandle pointing to the primary display
+ hw node, so that the OS knows which simplefb to disable when handing
+ over control to a driver for the real hardware. The bindings for the
+ hw nodes must specify which node is considered the primary node.
+
+ It is advised to add display# aliases to help the OS determine how
+ to number things. If display# aliases are used, then if the simplefb
+ node contains a display property then the /aliases/display# path
+ must point to the display hw node the display property points to,
+ otherwise it must point directly to the simplefb node.
+
+ If a simplefb node represents the preferred console for user
+ interaction, then the chosen node stdout-path property should point
+ to it, or to the primary display hw node, as with display#
+ aliases. If display aliases are used then it should be set to the
+ alias instead.
+
+ It is advised that devicetree files contain pre-filled, disabled
+ framebuffer nodes, so that the firmware only needs to update the
+ mode information and enable them. This way if e.g. later on support
+ for more display clocks get added, the simplefb nodes will already
+ contain this info and the firmware does not need to be updated.
+
+ If pre-filled framebuffer nodes are used, the firmware may need
+ extra information to find the right node. In that case an extra
+ platform specific compatible and platform specific properties should
+ be used and documented.

+* Arcx Anybus-S controller
+
+This chip communicates with the SoC over a parallel bus. It is
+expected that its Device Tree node is specified as the child of a node
+corresponding to the parallel bus used for communication.
+
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+
+ - compatible : The following chip-specific string:
+ "arcx,anybus-controller"
+
+ - reg : three areas:
+ index 0: bus memory area where the cpld registers are located.
+ index 1: bus memory area of the first host's dual-port ram.
+ index 2: bus memory area of the second host's dual-port ram.
+
+ - reset-gpios : the GPIO pin connected to the reset line of the controller.
+
+ - interrupts : two interrupts:
+ index 0: interrupt connected to the first host
+ index 1: interrupt connected to the second host
+ Generic interrupt client node bindings are described in
+ interrupt-controller/interrupts.txt
+
+Optional: use of subnodes
+-------------------------
+
+The card connected to a host may need additional properties. These can be
+specified in subnodes to the controller node.
+
+The subnodes are identified by the standard 'reg' property. Which information
+exactly can be specified depends on the bindings for the function driver
+for the subnode.
+
+Required controller node properties when using subnodes:
+- #address-cells: should be one.
+- #size-cells: should be zero.
+
+Required subnode properties:
+- reg: Must contain the host index of the card this subnode describes:
+ <0> for the first host on the controller
+ <1> for the second host on the controller
+ Note that only a single card can be plugged into a host, so the host
+ index uniquely describes the card location.
+
+Example of usage:
+-----------------
+
+This example places the bridge on top of the i.MX WEIM parallel bus, see:
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/bus/imx-weim.txt

+- interrupts: interrupt mapping for IRQ, accepted values are:

+ * IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- interrupt-names: Data ready line selection. Valid values are:
+ * DIO1
+ * DIO2
+ * DIO3
+ * DIO4
+ If this field is left empty, DIO1 is assigned as default data ready
+ signal.
+- reset-gpios: must be the device tree identifier of the RESET pin. As the line
+ is active low, it should be marked GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW.
+- clocks: phandle to the external clock. Should be set according to
+ "clock-names".
+ If this field is left empty together with the "clock-names" field, then
+ the internal clock is used.
+- clock-names: The name of the external clock to be used. Valid values are:
+ * sync: In sync mode, the internal clock is disabled and the frequency
+ of the external clock signal establishes therate of data
+ collection and processing. See Fig 14 and 15 in the datasheet.
+ The clock-frequency must be:
+ * 3000 to 4500 Hz for adis1649x devices.
+ * 700 to 2400 Hz for adis1648x devices.
+ * pps: In Pulse Per Second (PPS) Mode, the rate of data collection and
+ production is equal to the product of the external clock
+ frequency and the scale factor in the SYNC_SCALE register, see
+ Table 154 in the datasheet.
+ The clock-frequency must be:
+ * 1 to 128 Hz for adis1649x devices.
+ * This mode is not supported by adis1648x devices.
+ If this field is left empty together with the "clocks" field, then the
+ internal clock is used.
+- adi,ext-clk-pin: The DIOx line to be used as an external clock input.
+ Valid values are:
+ * DIO1
+ * DIO2
+ * DIO3
+ * DIO4
+ Each DIOx pin supports only one function at a time (data ready line
+ selection or external clock input). When a single pin has two
+ two assignments, the enable bit for the lower priority function
+ automatically resets to zero (disabling the lower priority function).
+ Data ready has highest priority.
+ If this field is left empty, DIO2 is assigned as default external clock
+ input pin.

+* Texas Instruments - lm3532 White LED driver with ambient light sensing
+capability.
+
+The LM3532 provides the 3 high-voltage, low-side current sinks. The device is
+programmable over an I2C-compatible interface and has independent
+current control for all three channels. The adaptive current regulation
+method allows for different LED currents in each current sink thus allowing
+for a wide variety of backlight and keypad applications.
+
+The main features of the LM3532 include dual ambient light sensor inputs
+each with 32 internal voltage setting resistors, 8-bit logarithmic and linear
+brightness control, dual external PWM brightness control inputs, and up to
+1000:1 dimming ratio with programmable fade in and fade out settings.

-Deprecated Binding
-------------------
-
-The deprecated binding makes use of a platform device to represent the
-switches. The switches themselves are not Linux devices, and make use
-of an MDIO bus for management.
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible : Should be "marvell,dsa"
-- #address-cells : Must be 2, first cell is the address on the MDIO bus
- and second cell is the address in the switch tree.
- Second cell is used only when cascading/chaining.
-- #size-cells : Must be 0
-- dsa,ethernet : Should be a phandle to a valid Ethernet device node
-- dsa,mii-bus : Should be a phandle to a valid MDIO bus device node
-
-Optional properties:
-- interrupts : property with a value describing the switch
- interrupt number (not supported by the driver)
-
-A DSA node can contain multiple switch chips which are therefore child nodes of
-the parent DSA node. The maximum number of allowed child nodes is 4
-(DSA_MAX_SWITCHES).
-Each of these switch child nodes should have the following required properties:
-
-- reg : Contains two fields. The first one describes the
- address on the MII bus. The second is the switch
- number that must be unique in cascaded configurations
-- #address-cells : Must be 1
-- #size-cells : Must be 0
-
-A switch child node has the following optional property:
-
-- eeprom-length : Set to the length of an EEPROM connected to the
- switch. Must be set if the switch can not detect
- the presence and/or size of a connected EEPROM,
- otherwise optional.
-
-A switch may have multiple "port" children nodes
-
-Each port children node must have the following mandatory properties:
-- reg : Describes the port address in the switch
-- label : Describes the label associated with this port, special
- labels are "cpu" to indicate a CPU port and "dsa" to
- indicate an uplink/downlink port.
-
-Note that a port labelled "dsa" will imply checking for the uplink phandle
-described below.
-
-Optional property:
-- link : Should be a list of phandles to another switch's DSA port.
- This property is only used when switches are being
- chained/cascaded together. This port is used as outgoing port
- towards the phandle port, which can be more than one hop away.
-
-- phy-handle : Phandle to a PHY on an external MDIO bus, not the
- switch internal one. See
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
- for details.
-
-- phy-mode : String representing the connection to the designated
- PHY node specified by the 'phy-handle' property. See
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/ethernet.txt
- for details.
-
-- mii-bus : Should be a phandle to a valid MDIO bus device node.
- This mii-bus will be used in preference to the
- global dsa,mii-bus defined above, for this switch.
-
-Optional subnodes:
-- fixed-link : Fixed-link subnode describing a link to a non-MDIO

+NXP SJA1105 switch driver
+=========================
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible:
+ Must be one of:
+ - "nxp,sja1105e"
+ - "nxp,sja1105t"
+ - "nxp,sja1105p"
+ - "nxp,sja1105q"
+ - "nxp,sja1105r"
+ - "nxp,sja1105s"
+
+ Although the device ID could be detected at runtime, explicit bindings
+ are required in order to be able to statically check their validity.
+ For example, SGMII can only be specified on port 4 of R and S devices,
+ and the non-SGMII devices, while pin-compatible, are not equal in terms
+ of support for RGMII internal delays (supported on P/Q/R/S, but not on
+ E/T).
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- sja1105,role-mac:
+- sja1105,role-phy:
+ Boolean properties that can be assigned under each port node. By
+ default (unless otherwise specified) a port is configured as MAC if it
+ is driving a PHY (phy-handle is present) or as PHY if it is PHY-less
+ (fixed-link specified, presumably because it is connected to a MAC).
+ The effect of this property (in either its implicit or explicit form)
+ is:
+ - In the case of MII or RMII it specifies whether the SJA1105 port is a
+ clock source or sink for this interface (not applicable for RGMII
+ where there is a Tx and an Rx clock).
+ - In the case of RGMII it affects the behavior regarding internal
+ delays:
+ 1. If sja1105,role-mac is specified, and the phy-mode property is one
+ of "rgmii-id", "rgmii-txid" or "rgmii-rxid", then the entity
+ designated to apply the delay/clock skew necessary for RGMII
+ is the PHY. The SJA1105 MAC does not apply any internal delays.
+ 2. If sja1105,role-phy is specified, and the phy-mode property is one
+ of the above, the designated entity to apply the internal delays
+ is the SJA1105 MAC (if hardware-supported). This is only supported
+ by the second-generation (P/Q/R/S) hardware. On a first-generation
+ E or T device, it is an error to specify an RGMII phy-mode other
+ than "rgmii" for a port that is in fixed-link mode. In that case,
+ the clock skew must either be added by the MAC at the other end of
+ the fixed-link, or by PCB serpentine traces on the board.
+ These properties are required, for example, in the case where SJA1105
+ ports are at both ends of a MII/RMII PHY-less setup. One end would need
+ to have sja1105,role-mac, while the other sja1105,role-phy.
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/dsa.txt for the list of standard
+DSA required and optional properties.
+
+Other observations
+------------------
+
+The SJA1105 SPI interface requires a CS-to-CLK time (t2 in UM10944) of at least
+one half of t_CLK. At an SPI frequency of 1MHz, this means a minimum
+cs_sck_delay of 500ns. Ensuring that this SPI timing requirement is observed
+depends on the SPI bus master driver.

+MediaTek Universal Flash Storage (UFS) M-PHY binding
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+UFS M-PHY nodes are defined to describe on-chip UFS M-PHY hardware macro.
+Each UFS M-PHY node should have its own node.
+
+To bind UFS M-PHY with UFS host controller, the controller node should
+contain a phandle reference to UFS M-PHY node.
+
+Required properties for UFS M-PHY nodes:
+- compatible : Compatible list, contains the following controller:
+ "mediatek,mt8183-ufsphy" for ufs phy
+ persent on MT81xx chipsets.
+- reg : Address and length of the UFS M-PHY register set.
+- #phy-cells : This property shall be set to 0.
+- clocks : List of phandle and clock specifier pairs.
+- clock-names : List of clock input name strings sorted in the same
+ order as the clocks property. Following clocks are
+ mandatory.
+ "unipro": Unipro core control clock.
+ "mp": M-PHY core control clock.
+
+Example:

+* Mediatek MT8183 Pin Controller
+
+The Mediatek's Pin controller is used to control SoC pins.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: value should be one of the following.
+ "mediatek,mt8183-pinctrl", compatible with mt8183 pinctrl.
+- gpio-controller : Marks the device node as a gpio controller.
+- #gpio-cells: number of cells in GPIO specifier. Since the generic GPIO
+ binding is used, the amount of cells must be specified as 2. See the below
+ mentioned gpio binding representation for description of particular cells.
+- gpio-ranges : gpio valid number range.
+- reg: physical address base for gpio base registers. There are 10 GPIO
+ physical address base in mt8183.
+
+Optional properties:
+- reg-names: gpio base register names. There are 10 gpio base register
+ names in mt8183. They are "iocfg0", "iocfg1", "iocfg2", "iocfg3", "iocfg4",
+ "iocfg5", "iocfg6", "iocfg7", "iocfg8", "eint".
+- interrupt-controller: Marks the device node as an interrupt controller
+- #interrupt-cells: Should be two.
+- interrupts : The interrupt outputs to sysirq.
+
+Please refer to pinctrl-bindings.txt in this directory for details of the
+common pinctrl bindings used by client devices.
+
+Subnode format
+A pinctrl node should contain at least one subnodes representing the
+pinctrl groups available on the machine. Each subnode will list the
+pins it needs, and how they should be configured, with regard to muxer
+configuration, pullups, drive strength, input enable/disable and input schmitt.
+
+ node {
+ pinmux = <PIN_NUMBER_PINMUX>;
+ GENERIC_PINCONFIG;
+ };
+
+Required properties:
+- pinmux: integer array, represents gpio pin number and mux setting.
+ Supported pin number and mux varies for different SoCs, and are defined
+ as macros in boot/dts/<soc>-pinfunc.h directly.
+
+Optional properties:
+- GENERIC_PINCONFIG: is the generic pinconfig options to use, bias-disable,
+ bias-pull-down, bias-pull-up, input-enable, input-disable, output-low,
+ output-high, input-schmitt-enable, input-schmitt-disable
+ and drive-strength are valid.
+
+ Some special pins have extra pull up strength, there are R0 and R1 pull-up
+ resistors available, but for user, it's only need to set R1R0 as 00, 01,
+ 10 or 11. So It needs config "mediatek,pull-up-adv" or
+ "mediatek,pull-down-adv" to support arguments for those special pins.
+ Valid arguments are from 0 to 3.
+
+ mediatek,tdsel: An integer describing the steps for output level shifter
+ duty cycle when asserted (high pulse width adjustment). Valid arguments
+ are from 0 to 15.
+ mediatek,rdsel: An integer describing the steps for input level shifter
+ duty cycle when asserted (high pulse width adjustment). Valid arguments
+ are from 0 to 63.
+
+ When config drive-strength, it can support some arguments, such as
+ MTK_DRIVE_4mA, MTK_DRIVE_6mA, etc. See dt-bindings/pinctrl/mt65xx.h.
+ It can only support 2/4/6/8/10/12/14/16mA in mt8183.
+ For I2C pins, there are existing generic driving setup and the specific
+ driving setup. I2C pins can only support 2/4/6/8/10/12/14/16mA driving
+ adjustment in generic driving setup. But in specific driving setup,
+ they can support 0.125/0.25/0.5/1mA adjustment. If we enable specific
+ driving setup for I2C pins, the existing generic driving setup will be
+ disabled. For some special features, we need the I2C pins specific
+ driving setup. The specific driving setup is controlled by E1E0EN.
+ So we need add extra vendor driving preperty instead of
+ the generic driving property.
+ We can add "mediatek,drive-strength-adv = <XXX>;" to describe the specific
+ driving setup property. "XXX" means the value of E1E0EN. EN is 0 or 1.
+ It is used to enable or disable the specific driving setup.
+ E1E0 is used to describe the detail strength specification of the I2C pin.
+ When E1=0/E0=0, the strength is 0.125mA.
+ When E1=0/E0=1, the strength is 0.25mA.
+ When E1=1/E0=0, the strength is 0.5mA.
+ When E1=1/E0=1, the strength is 1mA.
+ So the valid arguments of "mediatek,drive-strength-adv" are from 0 to 7.

+- DO attempt to make bindings complete even if a driver doesn't support some
+ features. For example, if a device has an interrupt, then include the
+ 'interrupts' property even if the driver is only polled mode.
+
+- DON'T refer to Linux or "device driver" in bindings. Bindings should be
+ based on what the hardware has, not what an OS and driver currently support.
+
+- DO use node names matching the class of the device. Many standard names are
+ defined in the DT Spec. If there isn't one, consider adding it.
+
+- DO check that the example matches the documentation especially after making
+ review changes.
+
+- DON'T create nodes just for the sake of instantiating drivers. Multi-function
+ devices only need child nodes when the child nodes have their own DT
+ resources. A single node can be multiple providers (e.g. clocks and resets).
+
+- DON'T use 'syscon' alone without a specific compatible string. A 'syscon'
+ hardware block should have a compatible string unique enough to infer the
+ register layout of the entire block (at a minimum).
+
+
+Properties
+
+- DO make 'compatible' properties specific. DON'T use wildcards in compatible
+ strings. DO use fallback compatibles when devices are the same as or a subset
+ of prior implementations. DO add new compatibles in case there are new
+ features or bugs.
+
+- DO use a vendor prefix on device specific property names. Consider if
+ properties could be common among devices of the same class. Check other
+ existing bindings for similar devices.
+
+- DON'T redefine common properties. Just reference the definition and define
+ constraints specific to the device.
+
+- DO use common property unit suffixes for properties with scientific units.
+ See property-units.txt.
+
+- DO define properties in terms of constraints. How many entries? What are
+ possible values? What is the order?
+
+
+Board/SoC .dts Files
+
+- DO put all MMIO devices under a bus node and not at the top-level.
+
+- DO use non-empty 'ranges' to limit the size of child buses/devices. 64-bit
+ platforms don't need all devices to have 64-bit address and size.

+=========================
+Generic Counter Interface
+=========================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+Counter devices are prevalent within a diverse spectrum of industries.
+The ubiquitous presence of these devices necessitates a common interface
+and standard of interaction and exposure. This driver API attempts to
+resolve the issue of duplicate code found among existing counter device
+drivers by introducing a generic counter interface for consumption. The
+Generic Counter interface enables drivers to support and expose a common
+set of components and functionality present in counter devices.
+
+Theory
+======
+
+Counter devices can vary greatly in design, but regardless of whether
+some devices are quadrature encoder counters or tally counters, all
+counter devices consist of a core set of components. This core set of
+components, shared by all counter devices, is what forms the essence of
+the Generic Counter interface.
+
+There are three core components to a counter:
+
+* Count:
+ Count data for a set of Signals.
+
+* Signal:
+ Input data that is evaluated by the counter to determine the count
+ data.
+
+* Synapse:
+ The association of a Signal with a respective Count.
+
+COUNT
+-----
+A Count represents the count data for a set of Signals. The Generic
+Counter interface provides the following available count data types:
+
+* COUNT_POSITION:
+ Unsigned integer value representing position.
+
+A Count has a count function mode which represents the update behavior
+for the count data. The Generic Counter interface provides the following
+available count function modes:
+
+* Increase:
+ Accumulated count is incremented.
+
+* Decrease:
+ Accumulated count is decremented.
+
+* Pulse-Direction:
+ Rising edges on signal A updates the respective count. The input level
+ of signal B determines direction.
+
+* Quadrature:
+ A pair of quadrature encoding signals are evaluated to determine
+ position and direction. The following Quadrature modes are available:
+
+ - x1 A:
+ If direction is forward, rising edges on quadrature pair signal A
+ updates the respective count; if the direction is backward, falling
+ edges on quadrature pair signal A updates the respective count.
+ Quadrature encoding determines the direction.
+
+ - x1 B:
+ If direction is forward, rising edges on quadrature pair signal B
+ updates the respective count; if the direction is backward, falling
+ edges on quadrature pair signal B updates the respective count.
+ Quadrature encoding determines the direction.
+
+ - x2 A:
+ Any state transition on quadrature pair signal A updates the
+ respective count. Quadrature encoding determines the direction.
+
+ - x2 B:
+ Any state transition on quadrature pair signal B updates the
+ respective count. Quadrature encoding determines the direction.
+
+ - x4:
+ Any state transition on either quadrature pair signals updates the
+ respective count. Quadrature encoding determines the direction.
+
+A Count has a set of one or more associated Signals.
+
+SIGNAL
+------
+A Signal represents a counter input data; this is the input data that is
+evaluated by the counter to determine the count data; e.g. a quadrature
+signal output line of a rotary encoder. Not all counter devices provide
+user access to the Signal data.
+
+The Generic Counter interface provides the following available signal
+data types for when the Signal data is available for user access:
+
+* SIGNAL_LEVEL:
+ Signal line state level. The following states are possible:
+
+ - SIGNAL_LEVEL_LOW:
+ Signal line is in a low state.
+
+ - SIGNAL_LEVEL_HIGH:
+ Signal line is in a high state.
+
+A Signal may be associated with one or more Counts.
+
+SYNAPSE
+-------
+A Synapse represents the association of a Signal with a respective
+Count. Signal data affects respective Count data, and the Synapse
+represents this relationship.
+
+The Synapse action mode specifies the Signal data condition which
+triggers the respective Count's count function evaluation to update the
+count data. The Generic Counter interface provides the following
+available action modes:
+
+* None:
+ Signal does not trigger the count function. In Pulse-Direction count
+ function mode, this Signal is evaluated as Direction.
+
+* Rising Edge:
+ Low state transitions to high state.
+
+* Falling Edge:
+ High state transitions to low state.
+
+* Both Edges:
+ Any state transition.
+
+A counter is defined as a set of input signals associated with count
+data that are generated by the evaluation of the state of the associated
+input signals as defined by the respective count functions. Within the
+context of the Generic Counter interface, a counter consists of Counts
+each associated with a set of Signals, whose respective Synapse
+instances represent the count function update conditions for the
+associated Counts.
+
+Paradigm
+========
+
+The most basic counter device may be expressed as a single Count
+associated with a single Signal via a single Synapse. Take for example
+a counter device which simply accumulates a count of rising edges on a
+source input line::
+
+ Count Synapse Signal
+ ----- ------- ------
+ +---------------------+
+ | Data: Count | Rising Edge ________
+ | Function: Increase | <------------- / Source \
+ | | ____________
+ +---------------------+
+
+In this example, the Signal is a source input line with a pulsing
+voltage, while the Count is a persistent count value which is repeatedly
+incremented. The Signal is associated with the respective Count via a
+Synapse. The increase function is triggered by the Signal data condition
+specified by the Synapse -- in this case a rising edge condition on the
+voltage input line. In summary, the counter device existence and
+behavior is aptly represented by respective Count, Signal, and Synapse
+components: a rising edge condition triggers an increase function on an
+accumulating count datum.
+
+A counter device is not limited to a single Signal; in fact, in theory
+many Signals may be associated with even a single Count. For example, a
+quadrature encoder counter device can keep track of position based on
+the states of two input lines::
+
+ Count Synapse Signal
+ ----- ------- ------
+ +-------------------------+
+ | Data: Position | Both Edges ___
+ | Function: Quadrature x4 | <------------ / A \
+ | | _______
+ | |
+ | | Both Edges ___
+ | | <------------ / B \
+ | | _______
+ +-------------------------+
+
+In this example, two Signals (quadrature encoder lines A and B) are
+associated with a single Count: a rising or falling edge on either A or
+B triggers the "Quadrature x4" function which determines the direction
+of movement and updates the respective position data. The "Quadrature
+x4" function is likely implemented in the hardware of the quadrature
+encoder counter device; the Count, Signals, and Synapses simply
+represent this hardware behavior and functionality.
+
+Signals associated with the same Count can have differing Synapse action
+mode conditions. For example, a quadrature encoder counter device
+operating in a non-quadrature Pulse-Direction mode could have one input
+line dedicated for movement and a second input line dedicated for
+direction::
+
+ Count Synapse Signal
+ ----- ------- ------
+ +---------------------------+
+ | Data: Position | Rising Edge ___
+ | Function: Pulse-Direction | <------------- / A \ (Movement)
+ | | _______
+ | |
+ | | None ___
+ | | <------------- / B \ (Direction)
+ | | _______
+ +---------------------------+
+
+Only Signal A triggers the "Pulse-Direction" update function, but the
+instantaneous state of Signal B is still required in order to know the
+direction so that the position data may be properly updated. Ultimately,
+both Signals are associated with the same Count via two respective
+Synapses, but only one Synapse has an active action mode condition which
+triggers the respective count function while the other is left with a
+"None" condition action mode to indicate its respective Signal's
+availability for state evaluation despite its non-triggering mode.
+
+Keep in mind that the Signal, Synapse, and Count are abstract
+representations which do not need to be closely married to their
+respective physical sources. This allows the user of a counter to
+divorce themselves from the nuances of physical components (such as
+whether an input line is differential or single-ended) and instead focus
+on the core idea of what the data and process represent (e.g. position
+as interpreted from quadrature encoding data).
+
+Userspace Interface
+===================
+
+Several sysfs attributes are generated by the Generic Counter interface,
+and reside under the /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX directory, where
+counterX refers to the respective counter device. Please see
+Documentation/ABI/testing/sys-bus-counter-generic-sysfs for detailed
+information on each Generic Counter interface sysfs attribute.
+
+Through these sysfs attributes, programs and scripts may interact with
+the Generic Counter paradigm Counts, Signals, and Synapses of respective
+counter devices.
+
+Driver API
+==========
+
+Driver authors may utilize the Generic Counter interface in their code
+by including the include/linux/counter.h header file. This header file
+provides several core data structures, function prototypes, and macros
+for defining a counter device.
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/counter.h
+ :internal:
+
+.. kernel-doc:: drivers/counter/generic-counter.c
+ :export:
+
+Implementation
+==============
+
+To support a counter device, a driver must first allocate the available
+Counter Signals via counter_signal structures. These Signals should
+be stored as an array and set to the signals array member of an
+allocated counter_device structure before the Counter is registered to
+the system.
+
+Counter Counts may be allocated via counter_count structures, and
+respective Counter Signal associations (Synapses) made via
+counter_synapse structures. Associated counter_synapse structures are
+stored as an array and set to the the synapses array member of the
+respective counter_count structure. These counter_count structures are
+set to the counts array member of an allocated counter_device structure
+before the Counter is registered to the system.
+
+Driver callbacks should be provided to the counter_device structure via
+a constant counter_ops structure in order to communicate with the
+device: to read and write various Signals and Counts, and to set and get
+the "action mode" and "function mode" for various Synapses and Counts
+respectively.
+
+A defined counter_device structure may be registered to the system by
+passing it to the counter_register function, and unregistered by passing
+it to the counter_unregister function. Similarly, the
+devm_counter_register and devm_counter_unregister functions may be used
+if device memory-managed registration is desired.
+
+Extension sysfs attributes can be created for auxiliary functionality
+and data by passing in defined counter_device_ext, counter_count_ext,
+and counter_signal_ext structures. In these cases, the
+counter_device_ext structure is used for global configuration of the
+respective Counter device, while the counter_count_ext and
+counter_signal_ext structures allow for auxiliary exposure and
+configuration of a specific Count or Signal respectively.
+
+Architecture
+============
+
+When the Generic Counter interface counter module is loaded, the
+counter_init function is called which registers a bus_type named
+"counter" to the system. Subsequently, when the module is unloaded, the
+counter_exit function is called which unregisters the bus_type named
+"counter" from the system.
+
+Counter devices are registered to the system via the counter_register
+function, and later removed via the counter_unregister function. The
+counter_register function establishes a unique ID for the Counter
+device and creates a respective sysfs directory, where X is the
+mentioned unique ID:
+
+ /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX
+
+Sysfs attributes are created within the counterX directory to expose
+functionality, configurations, and data relating to the Counts, Signals,
+and Synapses of the Counter device, as well as options and information
+for the Counter device itself.
+
+Each Signal has a directory created to house its relevant sysfs
+attributes, where Y is the unique ID of the respective Signal:
+
+ /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY
+
+Similarly, each Count has a directory created to house its relevant
+sysfs attributes, where Y is the unique ID of the respective Count:
+
+ /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY
+
+For a more detailed breakdown of the available Generic Counter interface
+sysfs attributes, please refer to the
+Documentation/ABI/testing/sys-bus-counter file.
+
+The Signals and Counts associated with the Counter device are registered
+to the system as well by the counter_register function. The
+signal_read/signal_write driver callbacks are associated with their
+respective Signal attributes, while the count_read/count_write and
+function_get/function_set driver callbacks are associated with their
+respective Count attributes; similarly, the same is true for the
+action_get/action_set driver callbacks and their respective Synapse
+attributes. If a driver callback is left undefined, then the respective
+read/write permission is left disabled for the relevant attributes.
+
+Similarly, extension sysfs attributes are created for the defined
+counter_device_ext, counter_count_ext, and counter_signal_ext
+structures that are passed in.

+The AML Debugger
+================
+
+:Copyright: |copy| 2016, Intel Corporation
+:Author: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com>
+
+
+This document describes the usage of the AML debugger embedded in the Linux
+kernel.
+
+1. Build the debugger
+=====================
+
+The following kernel configuration items are required to enable the AML
+debugger interface from the Linux kernel::
+
+ CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUGGER=y
+ CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUGGER_USER=m
+
+The userspace utilities can be built from the kernel source tree using
+the following commands::
+
+ $ cd tools
+ $ make acpi
+
+The resultant userspace tool binary is then located at::
+
+ tools/power/acpi/acpidbg
+
+It can be installed to system directories by running "make install" (as a
+sufficiently privileged user).
+
+2. Start the userspace debugger interface
+=========================================
+
+After booting the kernel with the debugger built-in, the debugger can be
+started by using the following commands::
+
+ # mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
+ # modprobe acpi_dbg
+ # tools/power/acpi/acpidbg
+
+That spawns the interactive AML debugger environment where you can execute
+debugger commands.
+
+The commands are documented in the "ACPICA Overview and Programmer Reference"
+that can be downloaded from
+
+https://acpica.org/documentation
+
+The detailed debugger commands reference is located in Chapter 12 "ACPICA
+Debugger Reference". The "help" command can be used for a quick reference.
+
+3. Stop the userspace debugger interface
+========================================
+
+The interactive debugger interface can be closed by pressing Ctrl+C or using
+the "quit" or "exit" commands. When finished, unload the module with::
+
+ # rmmod acpi_dbg
+
+The module unloading may fail if there is an acpidbg instance running.
+
+4. Run the debugger in a script
+===============================
+
+It may be useful to run the AML debugger in a test script. "acpidbg" supports
+this in a special "batch" mode. For example, the following command outputs
+the entire ACPI namespace::
+
+ # acpidbg -b "namespace"

+Linux ACPI Custom Control Method How To
+=======================================
+
+:Author: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
+
+
+Linux supports customizing ACPI control methods at runtime.
+
+Users can use this to:
+
+1. override an existing method which may not work correctly,
+ or just for debugging purposes.
+2. insert a completely new method in order to create a missing
+ method such as _OFF, _ON, _STA, _INI, etc.
+
+For these cases, it is far simpler to dynamically install a single
+control method rather than override the entire DSDT, because kernel
+rebuild/reboot is not needed and test result can be got in minutes.
+
+.. note::
+
+ - Only ACPI METHOD can be overridden, any other object types like
+ "Device", "OperationRegion", are not recognized. Methods
+ declared inside scope operators are also not supported.
+
+ - The same ACPI control method can be overridden for many times,
+ and it's always the latest one that used by Linux/kernel.
+
+ - To get the ACPI debug object output (Store (AAAA, Debug)),
+ please run::
+
+ echo 1 > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/aml_debug_output
+
+
+1. override an existing method
+==============================
+a) get the ACPI table via ACPI sysfs I/F. e.g. to get the DSDT,
+ just run "cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > /tmp/dsdt.dat"
+b) disassemble the table by running "iasl -d dsdt.dat".
+c) rewrite the ASL code of the method and save it in a new file,
+d) package the new file (psr.asl) to an ACPI table format.
+ Here is an example of a customized \_SB._AC._PSR method::
+
+ DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 1, "", "", 0x20080715)
+ {
+ Method (\_SB_.AC._PSR, 0, NotSerialized)
+ {
+ Store ("In AC _PSR", Debug)
+ Return (ACON)
+ }
+ }
+
+ Note that the full pathname of the method in ACPI namespace
+ should be used.
+e) assemble the file to generate the AML code of the method.
+ e.g. "iasl -vw 6084 psr.asl" (psr.aml is generated as a result)
+ If parameter "-vw 6084" is not supported by your iASL compiler,
+ please try a newer version.
+f) mount debugfs by "mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug"
+g) override the old method via the debugfs by running
+ "cat /tmp/psr.aml > /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method"
+
+2. insert a new method
+======================
+This is easier than overriding an existing method.
+We just need to create the ASL code of the method we want to
+insert and then follow the step c) ~ g) in section 1.
+
+3. undo your changes
+====================
+The "undo" operation is not supported for a new inserted method
+right now, i.e. we can not remove a method currently.
+For an overridden method, in order to undo your changes, please
+save a copy of the method original ASL code in step c) section 1,
+and redo step c) ~ g) to override the method with the original one.
+
+
+.. note:: We can use a kernel with multiple custom ACPI method running,
+ But each individual write to debugfs can implement a SINGLE
+ method override. i.e. if we want to insert/override multiple
+ ACPI methods, we need to redo step c) ~ g) for multiple times.
+
+.. note:: Be aware that root can mis-use this driver to modify arbitrary
+ memory and gain additional rights, if root's privileges got
+ restricted (for example if root is not allowed to load additional
+ modules after boot).

+=====================
+ACPICA Trace Facility
+=====================
+
+:Copyright: |copy| 2015, Intel Corporation
+:Author: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com>
+
+
+Abstract
+========
+This document describes the functions and the interfaces of the
+method tracing facility.
+
+Functionalities and usage examples
+==================================
+
+ACPICA provides method tracing capability. And two functions are
+currently implemented using this capability.
+
+Log reducer
+-----------
+
+ACPICA subsystem provides debugging outputs when CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is
+enabled. The debugging messages which are deployed via
+ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT() macro can be reduced at 2 levels - per-component
+level (known as debug layer, configured via
+/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer) and per-type level (known as
+debug level, configured via /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level).
+
+But when the particular layer/level is applied to the control method
+evaluations, the quantity of the debugging outputs may still be too
+large to be put into the kernel log buffer. The idea thus is worked out
+to only enable the particular debug layer/level (normally more detailed)
+logs when the control method evaluation is started, and disable the
+detailed logging when the control method evaluation is stopped.
+
+The following command examples illustrate the usage of the "log reducer"
+functionality:
+
+a. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when control methods
+ are being evaluated::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "enable" > trace_state
+
+b. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when the specified
+ control method is being evaluated::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "method" > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
+
+c. Filter out the debug layer/level matched logs when the specified
+ control method is being evaluated for the first time::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0xXXXXXXXX" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0xYYYYYYYY" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "method-once" > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
+
+Where:
+ 0xXXXXXXXX/0xYYYYYYYY
+ Refer to Documentation/acpi/debug.txt for possible debug layer/level
+ masking values.
+ \PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH
+ Full path of a control method that can be found in the ACPI namespace.
+ It needn't be an entry of a control method evaluation.
+
+AML tracer
+----------
+
+There are special log entries added by the method tracing facility at
+the "trace points" the AML interpreter starts/stops to execute a control
+method, or an AML opcode. Note that the format of the log entries are
+subject to change::
+
+ [ 0.186427] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Method Begin [0xf58394d8:\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.ECOK] execution.
+ [ 0.186630] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905c88:If] execution.
+ [ 0.186820] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905cc0:LEqual] execution.
+ [ 0.187010] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905a20:-NamePath-] execution.
+ [ 0.187214] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905a20:-NamePath-] execution.
+ [ 0.187407] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
+ [ 0.187594] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
+ [ 0.187789] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905cc0:LEqual] execution.
+ [ 0.187980] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905cc0:Return] execution.
+ [ 0.188146] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode Begin [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
+ [ 0.188334] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905f60:One] execution.
+ [ 0.188524] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905cc0:Return] execution.
+ [ 0.188712] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Opcode End [0xf5905c88:If] execution.
+ [ 0.188903] exdebug-0398 ex_trace_point : Method End [0xf58394d8:\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.ECOK] execution.
+
+Developers can utilize these special log entries to track the AML
+interpretion, thus can aid issue debugging and performance tuning. Note
+that, as the "AML tracer" logs are implemented via ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT()
+macro, CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is also required to be enabled for enabling
+"AML tracer" logs.
+
+The following command examples illustrate the usage of the "AML tracer"
+functionality:
+
+a. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" logs when control
+ methods are being evaluated::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "enable" > trace_state
+
+b. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" when the specified
+ control method is being evaluated::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "method" > trace_state
+
+c. Filter out the method start/stop "AML tracer" logs when the specified
+ control method is being evaluated for the first time::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "method-once" > trace_state
+
+d. Filter out the method/opcode start/stop "AML tracer" when the
+ specified control method is being evaluated::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "opcode" > trace_state
+
+e. Filter out the method/opcode start/stop "AML tracer" when the
+ specified control method is being evaluated for the first time::
+
+ # cd /sys/module/acpi/parameters
+ # echo "0x80" > trace_debug_layer
+ # echo "0x10" > trace_debug_level
+ # echo "\PPPP.AAAA.TTTT.HHHH" > trace_method_name
+ # echo "opcode-opcode" > trace_state
+
+Note that all above method tracing facility related module parameters can
+be used as the boot parameters, for example::
+
+ acpi.trace_debug_layer=0x80 acpi.trace_debug_level=0x10 \
+ acpi.trace_method_name=\_SB.LID0._LID acpi.trace_state=opcode-once
+
+
+Interface descriptions
+======================
+
+All method tracing functions can be configured via ACPI module
+parameters that are accessible at /sys/module/acpi/parameters/:
+
+trace_method_name
+ The full path of the AML method that the user wants to trace.
+
+ Note that the full path shouldn't contain the trailing "_"s in its
+ name segments but may contain "\" to form an absolute path.
+
+trace_debug_layer
+ The temporary debug_layer used when the tracing feature is enabled.
+
+ Using ACPI_EXECUTER (0x80) by default, which is the debug_layer
+ used to match all "AML tracer" logs.
+
+trace_debug_level
+ The temporary debug_level used when the tracing feature is enabled.
+
+ Using ACPI_LV_TRACE_POINT (0x10) by default, which is the
+ debug_level used to match all "AML tracer" logs.
+
+trace_state
+ The status of the tracing feature.
+
+ Users can enable/disable this debug tracing feature by executing
+ the following command::
+
+ # echo string > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/trace_state
+
+Where "string" should be one of the following:
+
+"disable"
+ Disable the method tracing feature.
+
+"enable"
+ Enable the method tracing feature.
+
+ ACPICA debugging messages matching "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level"
+ during any method execution will be logged.
+
+"method"
+ Enable the method tracing feature.
+
+ ACPICA debugging messages matching "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level"
+ during method execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged.
+
+"method-once"
+ Enable the method tracing feature.
+
+ ACPICA debugging messages matching "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level"
+ during method execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged only once.
+
+"opcode"
+ Enable the method tracing feature.
+
+ ACPICA debugging messages matching "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level"
+ during method/opcode execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged.
+
+"opcode-once"
+ Enable the method tracing feature.
+
+ ACPICA debugging messages matching "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level"
+ during method/opcode execution of "trace_method_name" will be logged only
+ once.
+
+Note that, the difference between the "enable" and other feature
+enabling options are:
+
+1. When "enable" is specified, since
+ "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" shall apply to all control
+ method evaluations, after configuring "trace_state" to "enable",
+ "trace_method_name" will be reset to NULL.
+2. When "method/opcode" is specified, if
+ "trace_method_name" is NULL when "trace_state" is configured to
+ these options, the "trace_debug_layer/trace_debug_level" will
+ apply to all control method evaluations.

+Abstract
+========
The Linux ACPI subsystem converts ACPI namespace objects into a Linux
device tree under the /sys/devices/LNXSYSTEM:00 and updates it upon
-receiving ACPI hotplug notification events. For each device object in this
-hierarchy there is a corresponding symbolic link in the
+receiving ACPI hotplug notification events. For each device object
+in this hierarchy there is a corresponding symbolic link in the
/sys/bus/acpi/devices.
+
This document illustrates the structure of the ACPI device tree.
+ACPI Definition Blocks
+======================
+
+The ACPI firmware sets up RSDP (Root System Description Pointer) in the
+system memory address space pointing to the XSDT (Extended System
+Description Table). The XSDT always points to the FADT (Fixed ACPI
+Description Table) using its first entry, the data within the FADT
+includes various fixed-length entries that describe fixed ACPI features
+of the hardware. The FADT contains a pointer to the DSDT
+(Differentiated System Descripition Table). The XSDT also contains
+entries pointing to possibly multiple SSDTs (Secondary System
+Description Table).
+
+The DSDT and SSDT data is organized in data structures called definition
+blocks that contain definitions of various objects, including ACPI
+control methods, encoded in AML (ACPI Machine Language). The data block
+of the DSDT along with the contents of SSDTs represents a hierarchical
+data structure called the ACPI namespace whose topology reflects the
+structure of the underlying hardware platform.
+
+The relationships between ACPI System Definition Tables described above
+are illustrated in the following diagram::

-
- ACPI device (i.e. struct acpi_device) objects may be linked to other

- (for example, devices on the PCI bus). If that happens, it means that
- the ACPI device object is a "companion" of a device otherwise
- represented in a different way and is used (1) to provide configuration
- information on that device which cannot be obtained by other means and
- (2) to do specific things to the device with the help of its ACPI
- control methods. One ACPI device object may be linked this way to
- multiple "physical" devices.
-
- If an ACPI device object is linked to a "physical" device, its sysfs
- directory contains the "physical_node" symbolic link to the sysfs
- directory of the target device object. In turn, the target device's
- sysfs directory will then contain the "firmware_node" symbolic link to
- the sysfs directory of the companion ACPI device object.
- The linking mechanism relies on device identification provided by the
- ACPI namespace. For example, if there's an ACPI namespace object
- representing a PCI device (i.e. a device object under an ACPI namespace
- object representing a PCI bridge) whose _ADR returns 0x00020000 and the
- bus number of the parent PCI bridge is 0, the sysfs directory
- representing the struct acpi_device object created for that ACPI
- namespace object will contain the 'physical_node' symbolic link to the
- /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02:0/ sysfs directory of the

-
- The linking mechanism is generally bus-specific. The core of its

- Note:
- The uGuru is a microcontroller with onboard firmware which programs
- it to behave as a hwmon IC. There are many different revisions of the

- this does not always work. For these uGuru's the autodetection can
- be overridden with the bank1_types module param. For all 3 known
- revison 1 motherboards the correct use of this param is:
- bank1_types=1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,1
- You may also need to specify the fan_sensors option for these boards
- fan_sensors=5

-
-* force: bool Force detection. Note this parameter only causes the

-Description
------------
-
-This driver supports the hardware monitoring features of the first and
-second revision of the Abit uGuru chip found on Abit uGuru featuring
-motherboards (most modern Abit motherboards).
-
-The first and second revision of the uGuru chip in reality is a Winbond
-W83L950D in disguise (despite Abit claiming it is "a new microprocessor
-designed by the ABIT Engineers"). Unfortunately this doesn't help since the
-W83L950D is a generic microcontroller with a custom Abit application running
-on it.
-
-Despite Abit not releasing any information regarding the uGuru, Olle
-Sandberg <ollebull@gmail.com> has managed to reverse engineer the sensor part
-of the uGuru. Without his work this driver would not have been possible.
-
-Known Issues

+=======================
+

+
+ Prefix: 'abituguru'
+
+ Addresses scanned: ISA 0x0E0
+
+ Datasheet: Not available, this driver is based on reverse engineering.
+ A "Datasheet" has been written based on the reverse engineering it
+ should be available in the same dir as this file under the name
+ abituguru-datasheet.
+
+ Note:
+ The uGuru is a microcontroller with onboard firmware which programs
+ it to behave as a hwmon IC. There are many different revisions of the
+ firmware and thus effectivly many different revisions of the uGuru.
+ Below is an incomplete list with which revisions are used for which
+ Motherboards:
+

+ - uGuru 3.0.0.0 ~ 3.0.x.x (AW8, AL8, AT8, NI8 SLI, AT8 32X, AN8 32X,
+ AW9D-MAX) [2]_
+
+.. [1] For revisions 2 and 3 uGuru's the driver can autodetect the
+ sensortype (Volt or Temp) for bank1 sensors, for revision 1 uGuru's
+ this does not always work. For these uGuru's the autodetection can
+ be overridden with the bank1_types module param. For all 3 known
+ revison 1 motherboards the correct use of this param is:
+ bank1_types=1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,1
+ You may also need to specify the fan_sensors option for these boards
+ fan_sensors=5
+
+.. [2] There is a separate abituguru3 driver for these motherboards,
+ the abituguru (without the 3 !) driver will not work on these
+ motherboards (and visa versa)!

+ * 1 temp sensor

+ on your motherboard. Default: 0 (autodetect).
+* pwms: int
+ Tell the driver how many fan speed controls (fan
+ pwms) your motherboard has. Default: 0 (autodetect).
+* verbose: int
+ How verbose should the driver be? (0-3):
+
+ * 0 normal output
+ * 1 + verbose error reporting
+ * 2 + sensors type probing info (default)
+ * 3 + retryable error reporting
+
+ Default: 2 (the driver is still in the testing phase)

+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver supports the hardware monitoring features of the first and
+second revision of the Abit uGuru chip found on Abit uGuru featuring
+motherboards (most modern Abit motherboards).
+
+The first and second revision of the uGuru chip in reality is a Winbond
+W83L950D in disguise (despite Abit claiming it is "a new microprocessor
+designed by the ABIT Engineers"). Unfortunately this doesn't help since the
+W83L950D is a generic microcontroller with a custom Abit application running
+on it.
+
+Despite Abit not releasing any information regarding the uGuru, Olle
+Sandberg <ollebull@gmail.com> has managed to reverse engineer the sensor part
+of the uGuru. Without his work this driver would not have been possible.
+
+Known Issues
+------------
+
+The voltage and frequency control parts of the Abit uGuru are not supported.

+Description
+-----------
+
+Intersil ISL68137 is a digital output 7-phase configurable PWM
+controller with an AVSBus interface.
+
+Usage Notes
+-----------
+
+This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
+devices explicitly.
+
+The ISL68137 AVS operation mode must be enabled/disabled at runtime.
+
+Beyond the normal sysfs pmbus attributes, the driver exposes a control attribute.

* update_vbat: int
-
- 0 if vbat should report power on value, 1 if vbat should be updated after
- each read. Default is 0. On some boards the battery voltage is provided
- by either the battery or the onboard power supply. Only the first reading
- at power on will be the actual battery voltage (which the chip does
- automatically). On other boards the battery voltage is always fed to
- the chip so can be read at any time. Excessive reading may decrease
- battery life but no information is given in the datasheet.

+Description
+-----------
+
+Lochnagar 2 features built-in Current Monitor circuitry that allows for the
+measurement of both voltage and current on up to eight of the supply voltage
+rails provided to the minicards. The Current Monitor does not require any
+hardware modifications or external circuitry to operate.
+
+The current and voltage measurements are obtained through the standard register
+map interface to the Lochnagar board controller, and can therefore be monitored
+by software.

-Description
------------
-
-This driver implements support for the hardware sensor capabilities
-of the SMSC LPC47M192 and compatible Super-I/O chips.
-
-These chips support 3 temperature channels and 8 voltage inputs
-as well as CPU voltage VID input.
-
-They do also have fan monitoring and control capabilities, but the
-these features are accessed via ISA bus and are not supported by this
-driver. Use the 'smsc47m1' driver for fan monitoring and control.
-
-Voltages and temperatures are measured by an 8-bit ADC, the resolution
-of the temperatures is 1 bit per degree C.
-Voltages are scaled such that the nominal voltage corresponds to
-192 counts, i.e. 3/4 of the full range. Thus the available range for
-each voltage channel is 0V ... 255/192*(nominal voltage), the resolution
-is 1 bit per (nominal voltage)/192.
-Both voltage and temperature values are scaled by 1000, the sys files
-show voltages in mV and temperatures in units of 0.001 degC.
-
-The +12V analog voltage input channel (in4_input) is multiplexed with
-bit 4 of the encoded CPU voltage. This means that you either get
-a +12V voltage measurement or a 5 bit CPU VID, but not both.
-The default setting is to use the pin as 12V input, and use only 4 bit VID.
-This driver assumes that the information in the configuration register
-is correct, i.e. that the BIOS has updated the configuration if
-the motherboard has this input wired to VID4.
-
-The temperature and voltage readings are updated once every 1.5 seconds.
-Reading them more often repeats the same values.

-in[0-7]_max - lower and upper alarm thresholds for in[0-7]_input reading
-
- All voltages are read and written in mV.
-

- These files read '1' in case of alarm, '0' otherwise.
-

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the hardware sensor capabilities
+of the SMSC LPC47M192 and compatible Super-I/O chips.
+
+These chips support 3 temperature channels and 8 voltage inputs
+as well as CPU voltage VID input.
+
+They do also have fan monitoring and control capabilities, but the
+these features are accessed via ISA bus and are not supported by this
+driver. Use the 'smsc47m1' driver for fan monitoring and control.
+
+Voltages and temperatures are measured by an 8-bit ADC, the resolution
+of the temperatures is 1 bit per degree C.
+Voltages are scaled such that the nominal voltage corresponds to
+192 counts, i.e. 3/4 of the full range. Thus the available range for
+each voltage channel is 0V ... 255/192*(nominal voltage), the resolution
+is 1 bit per (nominal voltage)/192.
+Both voltage and temperature values are scaled by 1000, the sys files
+show voltages in mV and temperatures in units of 0.001 degC.
+
+The +12V analog voltage input channel (in4_input) is multiplexed with
+bit 4 of the encoded CPU voltage. This means that you either get
+a +12V voltage measurement or a 5 bit CPU VID, but not both.
+The default setting is to use the pin as 12V input, and use only 4 bit VID.
+This driver assumes that the information in the configuration register
+is correct, i.e. that the BIOS has updated the configuration if
+the motherboard has this input wired to VID4.
+
+The temperature and voltage readings are updated once every 1.5 seconds.
+Reading them more often repeats the same values.

Temp3-temp7 support NTC thermistors. For these channels, the driver returns
the voltages as seen at the individual pins of UCH1-UCH5. The voltage at the
pin (Vpin) is formed by a voltage divider made of the thermistor (Rth) and a
-scaling resistor (Rs):

-Vpin = 2200 * Rth / (Rs + Rth) (2200 is the ADC max limit of 2200 mV)

-Kernel driver w83793
-====================

-Module parameters
------------------
-
-* reset int
- (default 0)
- This parameter is not recommended, it will lose motherboard specific
- settings. Use 'reset=1' to reset the chip when loading this module.
-
-* force_subclients=bus,caddr,saddr1,saddr2
- This is used to force the i2c addresses for subclients of
- a certain chip. Typical usage is `force_subclients=0,0x2f,0x4a,0x4b'
- to force the subclients of chip 0x2f on bus 0 to i2c addresses
- 0x4a and 0x4b.
-
-
-Description
------------
-
-This driver implements support for Winbond W83793G/W83793R chips.
-
-* Exported features
- This driver exports 10 voltage sensors, up to 12 fan tachometer inputs,
- 6 remote temperatures, up to 8 sets of PWM fan controls, SmartFan
- (automatic fan speed control) on all temperature/PWM combinations, 2
- sets of 6-pin CPU VID input.
-
-* Sensor resolutions
- If your motherboard maker used the reference design, the resolution of
- voltage0-2 is 2mV, resolution of voltage3/4/5 is 16mV, 8mV for voltage6,
- 24mV for voltage7/8. Temp1-4 have a 0.25 degree Celsius resolution,
- temp5-6 have a 1 degree Celsiis resolution.
-
-* Temperature sensor types
- Temp1-4 have 2 possible types. It can be read from (and written to)
- temp[1-4]_type.
- - If the value is 3, it starts monitoring using a remote termal diode
- (default).
- - If the value is 6, it starts monitoring using the temperature sensor
- in Intel CPU and get result by PECI.
- Temp5-6 can be connected to external thermistors (value of
- temp[5-6]_type is 4).
-
-* Alarm mechanism
- For voltage sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value is below
- the low voltage limit or over the high voltage limit.
- For temperature sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value goes
- above the high temperature limit, and wears off only after the measured
- value drops below the hysteresis value.
- For fan sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value is below the
- low speed limit.
-
-* SmartFan/PWM control
- If you want to set a pwm fan to manual mode, you just need to make sure it
- is not controlled by any temp channel, for example, you want to set fan1
- to manual mode, you need to check the value of temp[1-6]_fan_map, make
- sure bit 0 is cleared in the 6 values. And then set the pwm1 value to
- control the fan.
-
- Each temperature channel can control all the 8 PWM outputs (by setting the
- corresponding bit in tempX_fan_map), you can set the temperature channel
- mode using temp[1-6]_pwm_enable, 2 is Thermal Cruise mode and 3
- is the SmartFanII mode. Temperature channels will try to speed up or
- slow down all controlled fans, this means one fan can receive different
- PWM value requests from different temperature channels, but the chip
- will always pick the safest (max) PWM value for each fan.
-
- In Thermal Cruise mode, the chip attempts to keep the temperature at a
- predefined value, within a tolerance margin. So if tempX_input >
- thermal_cruiseX + toleranceX, the chip will increase the PWM value,
- if tempX_input < thermal_cruiseX - toleranceX, the chip will decrease
- the PWM value. If the temperature is within the tolerance range, the PWM
- value is left unchanged.
-
- SmartFanII works differently, you have to define up to 7 PWM, temperature
- trip points, defining a PWM/temperature curve which the chip will follow.
- While not fundamentally different from the Thermal Cruise mode, the
- implementation is quite different, giving you a finer-grained control.
-
-* Chassis
- If the case open alarm triggers, it will stay in this state unless cleared
- by writing 0 to the sysfs file "intrusion0_alarm".
-
-* VID and VRM
- The VRM version is detected automatically, don't modify the it unless you
- *do* know the cpu VRM version and it's not properly detected.
-
-
-Notes
------
-
- Only Fan1-5 and PWM1-3 are guaranteed to always exist, other fan inputs and
- PWM outputs may or may not exist depending on the chip pin configuration.

+Media Controller Device Allocator API
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When the media device belongs to more than one driver, the shared media
+device is allocated with the shared struct device as the key for look ups.
+
+The shared media device should stay in registered state until the last
+driver unregisters it. In addition, the media device should be released when
+all the references are released. Each driver gets a reference to the media
+device during probe, when it allocates the media device. If media device is
+already allocated, the allocate API bumps up the refcount and returns the
+existing media device. The driver puts the reference back in its disconnect
+routine when it calls :c:func:`media_device_delete()`.
+
+The media device is unregistered and cleaned up from the kref put handler to
+ensure that the media device stays in registered state until the last driver
+unregisters the media device.
+
+**Driver Usage**
+
+Drivers should use the appropriate media-core routines to manage the shared
+media device life-time handling the two states:
+1. allocate -> register -> delete
+2. get reference to already registered device -> delete
+
+call :c:func:`media_device_delete()` routine to make sure the shared media
+device delete is handled correctly.
+
+**driver probe:**
+Call :c:func:`media_device_usb_allocate()` to allocate or get a reference
+Call :c:func:`media_device_register()`, if media devnode isn't registered

-1.1 What the TV decoder can do an what not
-------------------------------------------
-
-The best know TV standards are NTSC/PAL/SECAM. but for decoding a frame that
-information is not enough. There are several formats of the TV standards.
-And not every TV decoder is able to handle every format. Also the every
-combination is supported by the driver. There are currently 11 different
-tv broadcast formats all aver the world.
-
-The CCIR defines parameters needed for broadcasting the signal.
-The CCIR has defined different standards: A,B,D,E,F,G,D,H,I,K,K1,L,M,N,...
-The CCIR says not much about the colorsystem used !!!
-And talking about a colorsystem says not to much about how it is broadcast.
-
-The CCIR standards A,E,F are not used any more.
-
-When you speak about NTSC, you usually mean the standard: CCIR - M using
-the NTSC colorsystem which is used in the USA, Japan, Mexico, Canada
-and a few others.
-
-When you talk about PAL, you usually mean: CCIR - B/G using the PAL
-colorsystem which is used in many Countries.
-
-When you talk about SECAM, you mean: CCIR - L using the SECAM Colorsystem
-which is used in France, and a few others.
-
-There the other version of SECAM, CCIR - D/K is used in Bulgaria, China,
-Slovakai, Hungary, Korea (Rep.), Poland, Rumania and a others.
-
-The CCIR - H uses the PAL colorsystem (sometimes SECAM) and is used in
-Egypt, Libya, Sri Lanka, Syrain Arab. Rep.
-
-The CCIR - I uses the PAL colorsystem, and is used in Great Britain, Hong Kong,
-Ireland, Nigeria, South Africa.
-
-The CCIR - N uses the PAL colorsystem and PAL frame size but the NTSC framerate,
-and is used in Argentinia, Uruguay, an a few others
-
-We do not talk about how the audio is broadcast !
-
-A rather good sites about the TV standards are:
-http://www.sony.jp/support/
-http://info.electronicwerkstatt.de/bereiche/fernsehtechnik/frequenzen_und_normen/Fernsehnormen/
-and http://www.cabl.com/restaurant/channel.html
-
-Other weird things around: NTSC 4.43 is a modificated NTSC, which is mainly
-used in PAL VCR's that are able to play back NTSC. PAL 60 seems to be the same
-as NTSC 4.43 . The Datasheets also talk about NTSC 44, It seems as if it would
-be the same as NTSC 4.43.
-NTSC Combs seems to be a decoder mode where the decoder uses a comb filter
-to split coma and luma instead of a Delay line.
-
-But I did not defiantly find out what NTSC Comb is.

-
-
-What the TV encoder can do an what not
---------------------------------------
-
-The TV encoder are doing the "same" as the decoder, but in the oder direction.
-You feed them digital data and the generate a Composite or SVHS signal.
-For information about the colorsystems and TV norm take a look in the
-TV decoder section.

-
-The adv717x, should be able to produce PAL N. But you find nothing PAL N
-specific in the registers. Seem that you have to reuse a other standard
-to generate PAL N, maybe it would work if you use the PAL M settings.
-
-How do I get this damn thing to work
-------------------------------------
-
-Load zr36067.o. If it can't autodetect your card, use the card=X insmod
-option with X being the card number as given in the previous section.
-To have more than one card, use card=X1[,X2[,X3,[X4[..]]]]
-
-To automate this, add the following to your /etc/modprobe.d/zoran.conf:
-
-options zr36067 card=X1[,X2[,X3[,X4[..]]]]
-alias char-major-81-0 zr36067
-
-One thing to keep in mind is that this doesn't load zr36067.o itself yet. It
-just automates loading. If you start using xawtv, the device won't load on
-some systems, since you're trying to load modules as a user, which is not
-allowed ("permission denied"). A quick workaround is to add 'Load "v4l"' to
-XF86Config-4 when you use X by default, or to run 'v4l-conf -c <device>' in
-one of your startup scripts (normally rc.local) if you don't use X. Both
-make sure that the modules are loaded on startup, under the root account.
-
-What mainboard should I use (or why doesn't my card work)
----------------------------------------------------------
-
-
-<insert lousy disclaimer here>. In short: good=SiS/Intel, bad=VIA.
-
-Experience tells us that people with a Buz, on average, have more problems
-than users with a DC10+/LML33. Also, it tells us that people owning a VIA-
-based mainboard (ktXXX, MVP3) have more problems than users with a mainboard
-based on a different chipset. Here's some notes from Andrew Stevens:
-
-Here's my experience of using LML33 and Buz on various motherboards:
-
-- VIA MVP3
- - Forget it. Pointless. Doesn't work.
-- Intel 430FX (Pentium 200)
- - LML33 perfect, Buz tolerable (3 or 4 frames dropped per movie)
-- Intel 440BX (early stepping)
- - LML33 tolerable. Buz starting to get annoying (6-10 frames/hour)
-- Intel 440BX (late stepping)
- - Buz tolerable, LML3 almost perfect (occasional single frame drops)
-- SiS735
- - LML33 perfect, Buz tolerable.
-- VIA KT133(*)
- - LML33 starting to get annoying, Buz poor enough that I have up.
-
-- Both 440BX boards were dual CPU versions.
-
-Bernhard Praschinger later added:
-
-- AMD 751
- - Buz perfect-tolerable
-- AMD 760
- - Buz perfect-tolerable

-Programming interface
----------------------
-
-This driver conforms to video4linux2. Support for V4L1 and for the custom
-zoran ioctls has been removed in kernel 2.6.38.
-
-For programming example, please, look at lavrec.c and lavplay.c code in
-the MJPEG-tools (http://mjpeg.sf.net/).
-
-Additional notes for software developers:
-
- The driver returns maxwidth and maxheight parameters according to
- the current TV standard (norm). Therefore, the software which
- communicates with the driver and "asks" for these parameters should
- first set the correct norm. Well, it seems logically correct: TV
- standard is "more constant" for current country than geometry
- settings of a variety of TV capture cards which may work in ITU or
- square pixel format.

-Concerning buffer sizes, quality, output size etc.
---------------------------------------------------
-
-
-The zr36060 can do 1:2 JPEG compression. This is really the theoretical
-maximum that the chipset can reach. The driver can, however, limit compression
-to a maximum (size) of 1:4. The reason for this is that some cards (e.g. Buz)
-can't handle 1:2 compression without stopping capture after only a few minutes.
-With 1:4, it'll mostly work. If you have a Buz, use 'low_bitrate=1' to go into
-1:4 max. compression mode.
-
-100% JPEG quality is thus 1:2 compression in practice. So for a full PAL frame
-(size 720x576). The JPEG fields are stored in YUY2 format, so the size of the
-fields are 720x288x16/2 bits/field (2 fields/frame) = 207360 bytes/field x 2 =
-414720 bytes/frame (add some more bytes for headers and DHT (huffman)/DQT
-(quantization) tables, and you'll get to something like 512kB per frame for
-1:2 compression. For 1:4 compression, you'd have frames of half this size.
-
-Some additional explanation by Martin Samuelsson, which also explains the
-importance of buffer sizes:
---
-> Hmm, I do not think it is really that way. With the current (downloaded
-> at 18:00 Monday) driver I get that output sizes for 10 sec:
-> -q 50 -b 128 : 24.283.332 Bytes
-> -q 50 -b 256 : 48.442.368
-> -q 25 -b 128 : 24.655.992
-> -q 25 -b 256 : 25.859.820
-
-I woke up, and can't go to sleep again. I'll kill some time explaining why
-this doesn't look strange to me.
-
-Let's do some math using a width of 704 pixels. I'm not sure whether the Buz
-actually use that number or not, but that's not too important right now.
-
-704x288 pixels, one field, is 202752 pixels. Divided by 64 pixels per block;
-3168 blocks per field. Each pixel consist of two bytes; 128 bytes per block;
-1024 bits per block. 100% in the new driver mean 1:2 compression; the maximum
-output becomes 512 bits per block. Actually 510, but 512 is simpler to use
-for calculations.
-
-Let's say that we specify d1q50. We thus want 256 bits per block; times 3168
-becomes 811008 bits; 101376 bytes per field. We're talking raw bits and bytes
-here, so we don't need to do any fancy corrections for bits-per-pixel or such
-things. 101376 bytes per field.
-
-d1 video contains two fields per frame. Those sum up to 202752 bytes per
-frame, and one of those frames goes into each buffer.
-
-But wait a second! -b128 gives 128kB buffers! It's not possible to cram
-202752 bytes of JPEG data into 128kB!
-
-This is what the driver notice and automatically compensate for in your
-examples. Let's do some math using this information:
-
-128kB is 131072 bytes. In this buffer, we want to store two fields, which
-leaves 65536 bytes for each field. Using 3168 blocks per field, we get
-20.68686868... available bytes per block; 165 bits. We can't allow the
-request for 256 bits per block when there's only 165 bits available! The -q50
-option is silently overridden, and the -b128 option takes precedence, leaving
-us with the equivalence of -q32.
-
-This gives us a data rate of 165 bits per block, which, times 3168, sums up
-to 65340 bytes per field, out of the allowed 65536. The current driver has
-another level of rate limiting; it won't accept -q values that fill more than
-6/8 of the specified buffers. (I'm not sure why. "Playing it safe" seem to be
-a safe bet. Personally, I think I would have lowered requested-bits-per-block
-by one, or something like that.) We can't use 165 bits per block, but have to
-lower it again, to 6/8 of the available buffer space: We end up with 124 bits
-per block, the equivalence of -q24. With 128kB buffers, you can't use greater
-than -q24 at -d1. (And PAL, and 704 pixels width...)
-
-The third example is limited to -q24 through the same process. The second
-example, using very similar calculations, is limited to -q48. The only
-example that actually grab at the specified -q value is the last one, which
-is clearly visible, looking at the file size.
---
-
-Conclusion: the quality of the resulting movie depends on buffer size, quality,
-whether or not you use 'low_bitrate=1' as insmod option for the zr36060.c
-module to do 1:4 instead of 1:2 compression, etc.
-
-If you experience timeouts, lowering the quality/buffersize or using
-'low_bitrate=1 as insmod option for zr36060.o might actually help, as is
-proven by the Buz.
-
-It hangs/crashes/fails/whatevers! Help!

-
-Make sure that the card has its own interrupts (see /proc/interrupts), check
-the output of dmesg at high verbosity (load zr36067.o with debug=2,
-load all other modules with debug=1). Check that your mainboard is favorable
-(see question 2) and if not, test the card in another computer. Also see the
-notes given in question 3 and try lowering quality/buffersize/capturesize
-if recording fails after a period of time.
-
-If all this doesn't help, give a clear description of the problem including
-detailed hardware information (memory+brand, mainboard+chipset+brand, which
-MJPEG card, processor, other PCI cards that might be of interest), give the
-system PnP information (/proc/interrupts, /proc/dma, /proc/devices), and give

KERNEL I/O BARRIER EFFECTS
==========================
-When accessing I/O memory, drivers should use the appropriate accessor
-functions:
-
- (*) inX(), outX():
-
- These are intended to talk to I/O space rather than memory space, but
- that's primarily a CPU-specific concept. The i386 and x86_64 processors
- do indeed have special I/O space access cycles and instructions, but many
- CPUs don't have such a concept.
-
- The PCI bus, amongst others, defines an I/O space concept which - on such
- CPUs as i386 and x86_64 - readily maps to the CPU's concept of I/O
- space. However, it may also be mapped as a virtual I/O space in the CPU's
- memory map, particularly on those CPUs that don't support alternate I/O
- spaces.
-
- Accesses to this space may be fully synchronous (as on i386), but
- intermediary bridges (such as the PCI host bridge) may not fully honour
- that.
-
- They are guaranteed to be fully ordered with respect to each other.
-
- They are not guaranteed to be fully ordered with respect to other types of
- memory and I/O operation.
+Interfacing with peripherals via I/O accesses is deeply architecture and device
+specific. Therefore, drivers which are inherently non-portable may rely on
+specific behaviours of their target systems in order to achieve synchronization
+in the most lightweight manner possible. For drivers intending to be portable
+between multiple architectures and bus implementations, the kernel offers a
+series of accessor functions that provide various degrees of ordering
+guarantees:
(*) readX(), writeX():
- Whether these are guaranteed to be fully ordered and uncombined with
- respect to each other on the issuing CPU depends on the characteristics
- defined for the memory window through which they're accessing. On later
- i386 architecture machines, for example, this is controlled by way of the
- MTRR registers.
+ The readX() and writeX() MMIO accessors take a pointer to the
+ peripheral being accessed as an __iomem * parameter. For pointers
+ mapped with the default I/O attributes (e.g. those returned by
+ ioremap()), the ordering guarantees are as follows:
+
+ 1. All readX() and writeX() accesses to the same peripheral are ordered
+ with respect to each other. This ensures that MMIO register accesses
+ by the same CPU thread to a particular device will arrive in program
+ order.
+
+ 2. A writeX() issued by a CPU thread holding a spinlock is ordered
+ before a writeX() to the same peripheral from another CPU thread
+ issued after a later acquisition of the same spinlock. This ensures
+ that MMIO register writes to a particular device issued while holding
+ a spinlock will arrive in an order consistent with acquisitions of
+ the lock.
+
+ 3. A writeX() by a CPU thread to the peripheral will first wait for the
+ completion of all prior writes to memory either issued by, or
+ propagated to, the same thread. This ensures that writes by the CPU
+ to an outbound DMA buffer allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() will be
+ visible to a DMA engine when the CPU writes to its MMIO control
+ register to trigger the transfer.
+
+ 4. A readX() by a CPU thread from the peripheral will complete before
+ any subsequent reads from memory by the same thread can begin. This
+ ensures that reads by the CPU from an incoming DMA buffer allocated
+ by dma_alloc_coherent() will not see stale data after reading from
+ the DMA engine's MMIO status register to establish that the DMA
+ transfer has completed.
+
+ 5. A readX() by a CPU thread from the peripheral will complete before
+ any subsequent delay() loop can begin execution on the same thread.
+ This ensures that two MMIO register writes by the CPU to a peripheral
+ will arrive at least 1us apart if the first write is immediately read
+ back with readX() and udelay(1) is called prior to the second
+ writeX():
+
+ writel(42, DEVICE_REGISTER_0); // Arrives at the device...
+ readl(DEVICE_REGISTER_0);
+ udelay(1);
+ writel(42, DEVICE_REGISTER_1); // ...at least 1us before this.
+
+ The ordering properties of __iomem pointers obtained with non-default
+ attributes (e.g. those returned by ioremap_wc()) are specific to the
+ underlying architecture and therefore the guarantees listed above cannot
+ generally be relied upon for accesses to these types of mappings.
+
+ (*) readX_relaxed(), writeX_relaxed():
+
+ These are similar to readX() and writeX(), but provide weaker memory
+ ordering guarantees. Specifically, they do not guarantee ordering with
+ respect to locking, normal memory accesses or delay() loops (i.e.
+ bullets 2-5 above) but they are still guaranteed to be ordered with
+ respect to other accesses from the same CPU thread to the same
+ peripheral when operating on __iomem pointers mapped with the default
+ I/O attributes.
+
+ (*) readsX(), writesX():
+
+ The readsX() and writesX() MMIO accessors are designed for accessing
+ register-based, memory-mapped FIFOs residing on peripherals that are not
+ capable of performing DMA. Consequently, they provide only the ordering
+ guarantees of readX_relaxed() and writeX_relaxed(), as documented above.
- Ordinarily, these will be guaranteed to be fully ordered and uncombined,
- provided they're not accessing a prefetchable device.
+ (*) inX(), outX():
- However, intermediary hardware (such as a PCI bridge) may indulge in
- deferral if it so wishes; to flush a store, a load from the same location
- is preferred[*], but a load from the same device or from configuration
- space should suffice for PCI.
+ The inX() and outX() accessors are intended to access legacy port-mapped
+ I/O peripherals, which may require special instructions on some
+ architectures (notably x86). The port number of the peripheral being
+ accessed is passed as an argument.
- [*] NOTE! attempting to load from the same location as was written to may
- cause a malfunction - consider the 16550 Rx/Tx serial registers for
- example.
+ Since many CPU architectures ultimately access these peripherals via an
+ internal virtual memory mapping, the portable ordering guarantees
+ provided by inX() and outX() are the same as those provided by readX()
+ and writeX() respectively when accessing a mapping with the default I/O
+ attributes.
- Used with prefetchable I/O memory, an mmiowb() barrier may be required to
- force stores to be ordered.
+ Device drivers may expect outX() to emit a non-posted write transaction
+ that waits for a completion response from the I/O peripheral before
+ returning. This is not guaranteed by all architectures and is therefore
+ not part of the portable ordering semantics.
- Please refer to the PCI specification for more information on interactions
- between PCI transactions.
+ (*) insX(), outsX():
- (*) readX_relaxed(), writeX_relaxed()
+ As above, the insX() and outsX() accessors provide the same ordering
+ guarantees as readsX() and writesX() respectively when accessing a
+ mapping with the default I/O attributes.
- These are similar to readX() and writeX(), but provide weaker memory
- ordering guarantees. Specifically, they do not guarantee ordering with
- respect to normal memory accesses (e.g. DMA buffers) nor do they guarantee
- ordering with respect to LOCK or UNLOCK operations. If the latter is
- required, an mmiowb() barrier can be used. Note that relaxed accesses to
- the same peripheral are guaranteed to be ordered with respect to each
- other.
+ (*) ioreadX(), iowriteX():
- (*) ioreadX(), iowriteX()
+ These will perform appropriately for the type of access they're actually
+ doing, be it inX()/outX() or readX()/writeX().
- These will perform appropriately for the type of access they're actually
- doing, be it inX()/outX() or readX()/writeX().
+With the exception of the string accessors (insX(), outsX(), readsX() and
+writesX()), all of the above assume that the underlying peripheral is
+little-endian and will therefore perform byte-swapping operations on big-endian
+architectures.

+NXP SJA1105 switch driver

+

+- SJA1105T: First generation, TTEthernet
+- SJA1105P: Second generation, no TTEthernet, no SGMII

+
+These are SPI-managed automotive switches, with all ports being gigabit
+capable, and supporting MII/RMII/RGMII and optionally SGMII on one port.
+
+Being automotive parts, their configuration interface is geared towards
+set-and-forget use, with minimal dynamic interaction at runtime. They
+require a static configuration to be composed by software and packed
+with CRC and table headers, and sent over SPI.
+
+The static configuration is composed of several configuration tables. Each
+table takes a number of entries. Some configuration tables can be (partially)
+reconfigured at runtime, some not. Some tables are mandatory, some not:
+
+============================= ================== =============================
+Table Mandatory Reconfigurable
+============================= ================== =============================
+Schedule no no
+Schedule entry points if Scheduling no
+VL Lookup no no
+VL Policing if VL Lookup no
+VL Forwarding if VL Lookup no
+L2 Lookup no no
+L2 Policing yes no
+VLAN Lookup yes yes
+L2 Forwarding yes partially (fully on P/Q/R/S)
+MAC Config yes partially (fully on P/Q/R/S)
+Schedule Params if Scheduling no
+Schedule Entry Points Params if Scheduling no
+VL Forwarding Params if VL Forwarding no
+L2 Lookup Params no partially (fully on P/Q/R/S)
+L2 Forwarding Params yes no
+Clock Sync Params no no
+AVB Params no no
+General Params yes partially
+Retagging no yes
+xMII Params yes no
+SGMII no yes
+============================= ================== =============================
+
+
+Also the configuration is write-only (software cannot read it back from the
+switch except for very few exceptions).
+
+The driver creates a static configuration at probe time, and keeps it at
+all times in memory, as a shadow for the hardware state. When required to
+change a hardware setting, the static configuration is also updated.
+If that changed setting can be transmitted to the switch through the dynamic
+reconfiguration interface, it is; otherwise the switch is reset and
+reprogrammed with the updated static configuration.
+
+Traffic support
+===============
+
+The switches do not support switch tagging in hardware. But they do support
+customizing the TPID by which VLAN traffic is identified as such. The switch
+driver is leveraging ``CONFIG_NET_DSA_TAG_8021Q`` by requesting that special
+VLANs (with a custom TPID of ``ETH_P_EDSA`` instead of ``ETH_P_8021Q``) are
+installed on its ports when not in ``vlan_filtering`` mode. This does not
+interfere with the reception and transmission of real 802.1Q-tagged traffic,
+because the switch does no longer parse those packets as VLAN after the TPID
+change.
+The TPID is restored when ``vlan_filtering`` is requested by the user through
+the bridge layer, and general IP termination becomes no longer possible through
+the switch netdevices in this mode.
+
+The switches have two programmable filters for link-local destination MACs.
+These are used to trap BPDUs and PTP traffic to the master netdevice, and are
+further used to support STP and 1588 ordinary clock/boundary clock
+functionality.
+
+The following traffic modes are supported over the switch netdevices:
+
++--------------------+------------+------------------+------------------+
+| | Standalone | Bridged with | Bridged with |
+| | ports | vlan_filtering 0 | vlan_filtering 1 |
++====================+============+==================+==================+
+| Regular traffic | Yes | Yes | No (use master) |
++--------------------+------------+------------------+------------------+
+| Management traffic | Yes | Yes | Yes |
+| (BPDU, PTP) | | | |
++--------------------+------------+------------------+------------------+
+
+Switching features
+==================
+
+The driver supports the configuration of L2 forwarding rules in hardware for
+port bridging. The forwarding, broadcast and flooding domain between ports can
+be restricted through two methods: either at the L2 forwarding level (isolate
+one bridge's ports from another's) or at the VLAN port membership level
+(isolate ports within the same bridge). The final forwarding decision taken by
+the hardware is a logical AND of these two sets of rules.
+
+The hardware tags all traffic internally with a port-based VLAN (pvid), or it
+decodes the VLAN information from the 802.1Q tag. Advanced VLAN classification
+is not possible. Once attributed a VLAN tag, frames are checked against the
+port's membership rules and dropped at ingress if they don't match any VLAN.
+This behavior is available when switch ports are enslaved to a bridge with
+``vlan_filtering 1``.
+
+Normally the hardware is not configurable with respect to VLAN awareness, but
+by changing what TPID the switch searches 802.1Q tags for, the semantics of a
+bridge with ``vlan_filtering 0`` can be kept (accept all traffic, tagged or
+untagged), and therefore this mode is also supported.
+
+Segregating the switch ports in multiple bridges is supported (e.g. 2 + 2), but
+all bridges should have the same level of VLAN awareness (either both have
+``vlan_filtering`` 0, or both 1). Also an inevitable limitation of the fact
+that VLAN awareness is global at the switch level is that once a bridge with
+``vlan_filtering`` enslaves at least one switch port, the other un-bridged
+ports are no longer available for standalone traffic termination.
+
+Topology and loop detection through STP is supported.
+
+L2 FDB manipulation (add/delete/dump) is currently possible for the first
+generation devices. Aging time of FDB entries, as well as enabling fully static
+management (no address learning and no flooding of unknown traffic) is not yet
+configurable in the driver.
+
+A special comment about bridging with other netdevices (illustrated with an
+example):
+
+A board has eth0, eth1, swp0@eth1, swp1@eth1, swp2@eth1, swp3@eth1.
+The switch ports (swp0-3) are under br0.
+It is desired that eth0 is turned into another switched port that communicates
+with swp0-3.
+
+If br0 has vlan_filtering 0, then eth0 can simply be added to br0 with the
+intended results.
+If br0 has vlan_filtering 1, then a new br1 interface needs to be created that
+enslaves eth0 and eth1 (the DSA master of the switch ports). This is because in
+this mode, the switch ports beneath br0 are not capable of regular traffic, and
+are only used as a conduit for switchdev operations.
+
+Device Tree bindings and board design
+=====================================
+
+This section references ``Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/sja1105.txt``
+and aims to showcase some potential switch caveats.
+
+RMII PHY role and out-of-band signaling
+---------------------------------------
+
+In the RMII spec, the 50 MHz clock signals are either driven by the MAC or by
+an external oscillator (but not by the PHY).
+But the spec is rather loose and devices go outside it in several ways.
+Some PHYs go against the spec and may provide an output pin where they source
+the 50 MHz clock themselves, in an attempt to be helpful.
+On the other hand, the SJA1105 is only binary configurable - when in the RMII
+MAC role it will also attempt to drive the clock signal. To prevent this from
+happening it must be put in RMII PHY role.
+But doing so has some unintended consequences.
+In the RMII spec, the PHY can transmit extra out-of-band signals via RXD[1:0].
+These are practically some extra code words (/J/ and /K/) sent prior to the
+preamble of each frame. The MAC does not have this out-of-band signaling
+mechanism defined by the RMII spec.
+So when the SJA1105 port is put in PHY role to avoid having 2 drivers on the
+clock signal, inevitably an RMII PHY-to-PHY connection is created. The SJA1105
+emulates a PHY interface fully and generates the /J/ and /K/ symbols prior to
+frame preambles, which the real PHY is not expected to understand. So the PHY
+simply encodes the extra symbols received from the SJA1105-as-PHY onto the
+100Base-Tx wire.
+On the other side of the wire, some link partners might discard these extra
+symbols, while others might choke on them and discard the entire Ethernet
+frames that follow along. This looks like packet loss with some link partners
+but not with others.
+The take-away is that in RMII mode, the SJA1105 must be let to drive the
+reference clock if connected to a PHY.
+
+RGMII fixed-link and internal delays
+------------------------------------
+
+As mentioned in the bindings document, the second generation of devices has
+tunable delay lines as part of the MAC, which can be used to establish the
+correct RGMII timing budget.
+When powered up, these can shift the Rx and Tx clocks with a phase difference
+between 73.8 and 101.7 degrees.
+The catch is that the delay lines need to lock onto a clock signal with a
+stable frequency. This means that there must be at least 2 microseconds of
+silence between the clock at the old vs at the new frequency. Otherwise the
+lock is lost and the delay lines must be reset (powered down and back up).
+In RGMII the clock frequency changes with link speed (125 MHz at 1000 Mbps, 25
+MHz at 100 Mbps and 2.5 MHz at 10 Mbps), and link speed might change during the
+AN process.
+In the situation where the switch port is connected through an RGMII fixed-link
+to a link partner whose link state life cycle is outside the control of Linux
+(such as a different SoC), then the delay lines would remain unlocked (and
+inactive) until there is manual intervention (ifdown/ifup on the switch port).
+The take-away is that in RGMII mode, the switch's internal delays are only
+reliable if the link partner never changes link speeds, or if it does, it does
+so in a way that is coordinated with the switch port (practically, both ends of
+the fixed-link are under control of the same Linux system).
+As to why would a fixed-link interface ever change link speeds: there are
+Ethernet controllers out there which come out of reset in 100 Mbps mode, and
+their driver inevitably needs to change the speed and clock frequency if it's
+required to work at gigabit.
+
+MDIO bus and PHY management
+---------------------------
+
+The SJA1105 does not have an MDIO bus and does not perform in-band AN either.
+Therefore there is no link state notification coming from the switch device.
+A board would need to hook up the PHYs connected to the switch to any other
+MDIO bus available to Linux within the system (e.g. to the DSA master's MDIO
+bus). Link state management then works by the driver manually keeping in sync
+(over SPI commands) the MAC link speed with the settings negotiated by the PHY.

+================================================
+Generic bitfield packing and unpacking functions
+================================================
+
+Problem statement
+-----------------
+
+When working with hardware, one has to choose between several approaches of
+interfacing with it.
+One can memory-map a pointer to a carefully crafted struct over the hardware
+device's memory region, and access its fields as struct members (potentially
+declared as bitfields). But writing code this way would make it less portable,
+due to potential endianness mismatches between the CPU and the hardware device.
+Additionally, one has to pay close attention when translating register
+definitions from the hardware documentation into bit field indices for the
+structs. Also, some hardware (typically networking equipment) tends to group
+its register fields in ways that violate any reasonable word boundaries
+(sometimes even 64 bit ones). This creates the inconvenience of having to
+define "high" and "low" portions of register fields within the struct.
+A more robust alternative to struct field definitions would be to extract the
+required fields by shifting the appropriate number of bits. But this would
+still not protect from endianness mismatches, except if all memory accesses
+were performed byte-by-byte. Also the code can easily get cluttered, and the
+high-level idea might get lost among the many bit shifts required.
+Many drivers take the bit-shifting approach and then attempt to reduce the
+clutter with tailored macros, but more often than not these macros take
+shortcuts that still prevent the code from being truly portable.
+
+The solution
+------------
+
+This API deals with 2 basic operations:
+ - Packing a CPU-usable number into a memory buffer (with hardware
+ constraints/quirks)
+ - Unpacking a memory buffer (which has hardware constraints/quirks)
+ into a CPU-usable number.
+
+The API offers an abstraction over said hardware constraints and quirks,
+over CPU endianness and therefore between possible mismatches between
+the two.
+
+The basic unit of these API functions is the u64. From the CPU's
+perspective, bit 63 always means bit offset 7 of byte 7, albeit only
+logically. The question is: where do we lay this bit out in memory?
+
+The following examples cover the memory layout of a packed u64 field.
+The byte offsets in the packed buffer are always implicitly 0, 1, ... 7.
+What the examples show is where the logical bytes and bits sit.
+
+1. Normally (no quirks), we would do it like this:
+
+63 62 61 60 59 58 57 56 55 54 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32
+7 6 5 4
+31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+3 2 1 0
+
+That is, the MSByte (7) of the CPU-usable u64 sits at memory offset 0, and the
+LSByte (0) of the u64 sits at memory offset 7.
+This corresponds to what most folks would regard to as "big endian", where
+bit i corresponds to the number 2^i. This is also referred to in the code
+comments as "logical" notation.
+
+
+2. If QUIRK_MSB_ON_THE_RIGHT is set, we do it like this:
+

+That is, QUIRK_MSB_ON_THE_RIGHT does not affect byte positioning, but

+

+In this case the 8 byte memory region is interpreted as follows: first

+
+6. If QUIRK_LSW32_IS_FIRST and QUIRK_MSB_ON_THE_RIGHT are set, we do it like

+Intended use
+------------
+
+Drivers that opt to use this API first need to identify which of the above 3
+quirk combinations (for a total of 8) match what the hardware documentation
+describes. Then they should wrap the packing() function, creating a new
+xxx_packing() that calls it using the proper QUIRK_* one-hot bits set.
+
+The packing() function returns an int-encoded error code, which protects the
+programmer against incorrect API use. The errors are not expected to occur
+durring runtime, therefore it is reasonable for xxx_packing() to return void
+and simply swallow those errors. Optionally it can dump stack or print the
+error description.

-
- This driver and installation procedure have been developed upon Linux Kernel
- 2.4.x and 2.6.x. This driver supports Intel x86 hardware platform. In order
- to maintain compatibility, this version has also been properly tested with
- RedHat, Mandrake, Fedora and S.u.S.E Linux. However, if compatibility problem
- occurs, please contact Moxa at support@moxa.com.tw.
-
- In addition to device driver, useful utilities are also provided in this
- version. They are
- - msdiag Diagnostic program for displaying installed Moxa
- Smartio/Industio boards.
- - msmon Monitor program to observe data count and line status signals.
- - msterm A simple terminal program which is useful in testing serial
- ports.
- - io-irq.exe Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that
- this program can only be executed under DOS.
-
- All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under
- GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General
- Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail.
-
- In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://www.moxa.com/.
-
- This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver)
- or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following
- installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver,
- please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual.
-
- We assume the user should be familiar with following documents.
- - Serial-HOWTO
- - Kernel-HOWTO
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-2. System Requirement
- - Hardware platform: Intel x86 machine
- - Kernel version: 2.4.x or 2.6.x
- - gcc version 2.72 or later
- - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-3. Installation
-
- 3.1 Hardware installation
- 3.2 Driver files
- 3.3 Device naming convention
- 3.4 Module driver configuration
- 3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x, 2.6.x.
- 3.6 Custom configuration
- 3.7 Verify driver installation
-
-
- 3.1 Hardware installation
-
- There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio
- family multiport board.
-
- ISA board
- ---------
- You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector
- as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware
- installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further.
- Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly.
-
- PCI/UPCI board
- --------------
- You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict
- with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation
- procedure in User's Manual in advance.
-
- PCI IRQ Sharing
- -----------
- Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
- 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed
- together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.
-
-
- 3.2 Driver files
-
- The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The
- first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified
- directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below.
-
- # cd /
- # mkdir moxa
- # cd /moxa
- # tar xvf /dev/fd0
-
- or
-
- # cd /
- # mkdir moxa
- # cd /moxa
- # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/mxser.tgz .
- # tar xvfz mxser.tgz
-
-
- 3.3 Device naming convention
-
- You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser.
- Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to
- run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4.
- If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5.
-
- Dialin and callout port
- -----------------------
- This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are
- two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port
- which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention
- is "cumxx".
-
- Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
- -----------------------------------------------
- Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is
- pre-defined as below.
-
- Board Num. Dial-in Port Callout port
- 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 cum0 - cum7
- 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 cum8 - cum15
- 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 cum16 - cum23
- 4th board ttyM24 - ttym31 cum24 - cum31
-
-
- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Under Kernel 2.6 the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM*
- device instead.
- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
- Board sequence
- --------------
- This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set
- in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board
- will be installed in the system automatically driven.
- Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards.
- For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI
- has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards.
-
- 3.4 Module driver configuration
- Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver
- installation, please skip this paragraph.
-
-
- ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver--------------------
- 3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number
- Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices
- which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell
- script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure.
- This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still
- need to do this procedure when:
- a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7"
- section.
- b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you
- add/delete one MOXA board.
- c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the
- shell script "msmknod"
-
- The procedure is:
- # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
- # ./msmknod
-
- This shell script will require the major number for dial-in
- device and callout device to create tty device. You also need
- to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major
- numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If
- you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7"
- for more detailed procedure.
- Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device
- naming.
-
- 3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities
- Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the
- all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once.
- But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source
- code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see
- "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again.
-
- Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run
-
- # make clean; make install
-
- !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1:
- # make clean; make installsp1
-
- For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
- # make clean; make installsp2
- !!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
- The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled
- and copied to system directories respectively.
-
- ------------- Load MOXA driver--------------------
- 3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver
-
- # modprobe mxser <argument>
-
- will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
- if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the
- <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more
- information.
-
-
- ------------- Load MOXA driver on boot --------------------
- 3.4.4 For the above description, you may manually execute
- "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run
- "rmmod mxser" to remove it.
- However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to
- eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be
- achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify
- the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver".
-
- But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command
- to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the
- rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser"
- manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error
- encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is
- completed, follow the below step.
-
- Run following command for setting rc files.
-
- # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
- # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d
- # cd /etc/rc.d
-
- Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist,
- create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission.
- Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line,
-
- Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command.
-
- 3.4.5. If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system,
- you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given
- board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are
- as follows.
-
- modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x???
- | | | |
- | | | +- 4th ISA board
- | | +------ 3rd ISA board
- | +------------ 2nd ISA board
- +------------------- 1st ISA board
-
- 3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x
-
- Note: To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel
- source package.
-
- 3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel.
- # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
- # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old
-
- For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link:
- # cd /usr/src
- # ln -s linux-2.4 linux
-
- 3.5.2 Create link
- # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
- # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c
-
- 3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards. For PCI boards user,
- please skip this step.
-
- In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by
- parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to
- assign it within driver's source code. If you will not
- install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion.
- The instructions to modify driver source code are as
- below.
- a. # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
- # vi mxser.c
- b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below.
-
- static int mxserBoardCAP[]
- = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
-
- c. Change the address within this array using vi. For
- example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address
- 0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change
- the source code as follows.
-
- static int mxserBoardCAP[]
- = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00};
-
- 3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration
-
- Configure the kernel:
-
- # cd /usr/src/linux
- # make menuconfig
-
- You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character
- devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa
- SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then
- select [Exit] to exit this program.
-
- 3.5.5 Rebuild kernel
- The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your
- reference only.
- For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document.
-
- a. cd /usr/src/linux
- b. make clean /* take a few minutes */
- c. make dep /* take a few minutes */
- d. make bzImage /* take probably 10-20 minutes */
- e. make install /* copy boot image to correct position */
- f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the
- correct position.
- g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf
- 'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path,
- or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz).
- After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo".
-
- Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to
- go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in
- directory /usr/src/linux.
-
-
- 3.5.6 Make tty device and special file
- # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
- # ./msmknod
-
- 3.5.7 Make utility
- # cd /moxa/mxser/utility
- # make clean; make install
-
- 3.5.8 Reboot
-
-
-
- 3.6 Custom configuration
- Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you
- still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to
- change these parameters are shown as below.
-
- Change Device name
- ------------------
- If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming
- convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code
- within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod"
- by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them
- to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names
- you need next time executed.
-
- Change Major number
- -------------------
- If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select
- 2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change
- major numbers.
-
- 3.6.1 Find free major numbers
- In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied
- in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available.
- e.g. 40, 45.
- 3.6.2 Create special files
- Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with
- specified major numbers.
- 3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number
- Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line
- contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below.
- #define MXSERMAJOR 40
- #define MXSERCUMAJOR 45
- 3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver.
-
- 3.7 Verify driver installation
- You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status
- log reported by this driver whenever it's activated.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-4. Utilities
- There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and
- msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
- be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.
-
- Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and
- make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility.
-
- msdiag - Diagnostic
- --------------------
- This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio
- board found by driver in the system.
-
- msmon - Port Monitoring
- -----------------------
- This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
- activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
- (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
- Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
- the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
- is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
- (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
- on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
- parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.
-
- msterm - Terminal Emulation
- ---------------------------
- This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
- especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
- application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
- port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
- dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-5. Setserial
-
- Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below.
-
- uart set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO)

+ - io-irq.exe
+ Configuration program to setup ISA boards. Please note that
+ this program can only be executed under DOS.
+
+ All the drivers and utilities are published in form of source code under
+ GNU General Public License in this version. Please refer to GNU General
+ Public License announcement in each source code file for more detail.
+
+ In Moxa's Web sites, you may always find latest driver at http://www.moxa.com/.
+
+ This version of driver can be installed as Loadable Module (Module driver)
+ or built-in into kernel (Static driver). You may refer to following
+ installation procedure for suitable one. Before you install the driver,
+ please refer to hardware installation procedure in the User's Manual.
+
+ We assume the user should be familiar with following documents.
+
+ - Serial-HOWTO
+ - Kernel-HOWTO
+
+2. System Requirement
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ - Hardware platform: Intel x86 machine
+ - Kernel version: 2.4.x or 2.6.x
+ - gcc version 2.72 or later
+ - Maximum 4 boards can be installed in combination
+
+3. Installation
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+3.1 Hardware installation
+=========================
+
+ There are two types of buses, ISA and PCI, for Smartio/Industio
+ family multiport board.
+
+ISA board
+---------
+
+ You'll have to configure CAP address, I/O address, Interrupt Vector
+ as well as IRQ before installing this driver. Please refer to hardware
+ installation procedure in User's Manual before proceed any further.
+ Please make sure the JP1 is open after the ISA board is set properly.
+
+PCI/UPCI board
+--------------
+
+ You may need to adjust IRQ usage in BIOS to avoid from IRQ conflict
+ with other ISA devices. Please refer to hardware installation
+ procedure in User's Manual in advance.
+
+PCI IRQ Sharing
+---------------
+
+ Each port within the same multiport board shares the same IRQ. Up to
+ 4 Moxa Smartio/Industio PCI Family multiport boards can be installed
+ together on one system and they can share the same IRQ.
+
+
+3.2 Driver files
+================
+
+ The driver file may be obtained from ftp, CD-ROM or floppy disk. The
+ first step, anyway, is to copy driver file "mxser.tgz" into specified
+ directory. e.g. /moxa. The execute commands as below::
+
+ # cd /
+ # mkdir moxa
+ # cd /moxa
+ # tar xvf /dev/fd0
+
+or::
+
+ # cd /
+ # mkdir moxa
+ # cd /moxa
+ # cp /mnt/cdrom/<driver directory>/mxser.tgz .
+ # tar xvfz mxser.tgz
+
+
+3.3 Device naming convention
+============================
+
+ You may find all the driver and utilities files in /moxa/mxser.
+ Following installation procedure depends on the model you'd like to
+ run the driver. If you prefer module driver, please refer to 3.4.
+ If static driver is required, please refer to 3.5.
+
+Dialin and callout port
+-----------------------
+
+ This driver remains traditional serial device properties. There are
+ two special file name for each serial port. One is dial-in port
+ which is named "ttyMxx". For callout port, the naming convention
+ is "cumxx".
+
+Device naming when more than 2 boards installed
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+ Naming convention for each Smartio/Industio multiport board is
+ pre-defined as below.
+
+ ============ =============== ==============
+ Board Num. Dial-in Port Callout port
+ 1st board ttyM0 - ttyM7 cum0 - cum7
+ 2nd board ttyM8 - ttyM15 cum8 - cum15
+ 3rd board ttyM16 - ttyM23 cum16 - cum23
+ 4th board ttyM24 - ttym31 cum24 - cum31
+ ============ =============== ==============
+
+.. note::
+
+ Under Kernel 2.6 and upper, the cum Device is Obsolete. So use ttyM*
+ device instead.
+
+Board sequence
+--------------
+
+ This driver will activate ISA boards according to the parameter set
+ in the driver. After all specified ISA board activated, PCI board
+ will be installed in the system automatically driven.
+ Therefore the board number is sorted by the CAP address of ISA boards.
+ For PCI boards, their sequence will be after ISA boards and C168H/PCI
+ has higher priority than C104H/PCI boards.
+
+3.4 Module driver configuration
+===============================
+
+ Module driver is easiest way to install. If you prefer static driver
+ installation, please skip this paragraph.
+
+
+ ------------- Prepare to use the MOXA driver --------------------
+
+3.4.1 Create tty device with correct major number
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+ Before using MOXA driver, your system must have the tty devices
+ which are created with driver's major number. We offer one shell
+ script "msmknod" to simplify the procedure.
+ This step is only needed to be executed once. But you still
+ need to do this procedure when:
+
+ a. You change the driver's major number. Please refer the "3.7"
+ section.
+ b. Your total installed MOXA boards number is changed. Maybe you
+ add/delete one MOXA board.
+ c. You want to change the tty name. This needs to modify the
+ shell script "msmknod"
+
+ The procedure is::
+
+ # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+ # ./msmknod
+
+ This shell script will require the major number for dial-in
+ device and callout device to create tty device. You also need
+ to specify the total installed MOXA board number. Default major
+ numbers for dial-in device and callout device are 30, 35. If
+ you need to change to other number, please refer section "3.7"
+ for more detailed procedure.
+ Msmknod will delete any special files occupying the same device
+ naming.
+
+3.4.2 Build the MOXA driver and utilities
+-----------------------------------------
+
+ Before using the MOXA driver and utilities, you need compile the
+ all the source code. This step is only need to be executed once.
+ But you still re-compile the source code if you modify the source
+ code. For example, if you change the driver's major number (see
+ "3.7" section), then you need to do this step again.
+
+ Find "Makefile" in /moxa/mxser, then run
+
+ # make clean; make install
+
+ ..note::
+
+ For Red Hat 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3/ES3/WS3 & Fedora Core1:
+ # make clean; make installsp1
+
+ For Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS4/ES4/WS4:
+ # make clean; make installsp2
+
+ The driver files "mxser.o" and utilities will be properly compiled
+ and copied to system directories respectively.
+
+------------- Load MOXA driver--------------------
+
+3.4.3 Load the MOXA driver
+--------------------------
+
+ ::
+
+ # modprobe mxser <argument>
+
+ will activate the module driver. You may run "lsmod" to check
+ if "mxser" is activated. If the MOXA board is ISA board, the
+ <argument> is needed. Please refer to section "3.4.5" for more
+ information.
+
+------------- Load MOXA driver on boot --------------------
+
+3.4.4 Load the mxser driver
+---------------------------
+
+
+ For the above description, you may manually execute
+ "modprobe mxser" to activate this driver and run
+ "rmmod mxser" to remove it.
+
+ However, it's better to have a boot time configuration to
+ eliminate manual operation. Boot time configuration can be
+ achieved by rc file. We offer one "rc.mxser" file to simplify
+ the procedure under "moxa/mxser/driver".
+
+ But if you use ISA board, please modify the "modprobe ..." command
+ to add the argument (see "3.4.5" section). After modifying the
+ rc.mxser, please try to execute "/moxa/mxser/driver/rc.mxser"
+ manually to make sure the modification is ok. If any error
+ encountered, please try to modify again. If the modification is
+ completed, follow the below step.
+
+ Run following command for setting rc files::
+
+ # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+ # cp ./rc.mxser /etc/rc.d
+ # cd /etc/rc.d
+
+ Check "rc.serial" is existed or not. If "rc.serial" doesn't exist,
+ create it by vi, run "chmod 755 rc.serial" to change the permission.
+
+ Add "/etc/rc.d/rc.mxser" in last line.
+
+ Reboot and check if moxa.o activated by "lsmod" command.
+
+3.4.5. specify CAP address
+--------------------------
+
+ If you'd like to drive Smartio/Industio ISA boards in the system,
+ you'll have to add parameter to specify CAP address of given
+ board while activating "mxser.o". The format for parameters are
+ as follows.::
+
+ modprobe mxser ioaddr=0x???,0x???,0x???,0x???
+ | | | |
+ | | | +- 4th ISA board
+ | | +------ 3rd ISA board
+ | +------------ 2nd ISA board
+ +-------------------1st ISA board
+
+3.5 Static driver configuration for Linux kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x
+================================================================
+
+ Note:
+ To use static driver, you must install the linux kernel
+ source package.
+
+3.5.1 Backup the built-in driver in the kernel
+----------------------------------------------
+
+ ::
+
+ # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
+ # mv mxser.c mxser.c.old
+
+ For Red Hat 7.x user, you need to create link:
+ # cd /usr/src
+ # ln -s linux-2.4 linux
+
+3.5.2 Create link
+-----------------
+ ::
+
+ # cd /usr/src/linux/drivers/char
+ # ln -s /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c mxser.c
+
+3.5.3 Add CAP address list for ISA boards.
+------------------------------------------
+
+ For PCI boards user, please skip this step.
+
+ In module mode, the CAP address for ISA board is given by
+ parameter. In static driver configuration, you'll have to
+ assign it within driver's source code. If you will not
+ install any ISA boards, you may skip to next portion.
+ The instructions to modify driver source code are as
+ below.
+
+ a. run::
+
+ # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+ # vi mxser.c
+
+ b. Find the array mxserBoardCAP[] as below::
+
+ static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00};
+
+ c. Change the address within this array using vi. For
+ example, to driver 2 ISA boards with CAP address
+ 0x280 and 0x180 as 1st and 2nd board. Just to change
+ the source code as follows::
+
+ static int mxserBoardCAP[] = {0x280, 0x180, 0x00, 0x00};
+
+3.5.4 Setup kernel configuration
+--------------------------------
+
+ Configure the kernel::
+
+ # cd /usr/src/linux
+ # make menuconfig
+
+ You will go into a menu-driven system. Please select [Character
+ devices][Non-standard serial port support], enable the [Moxa
+ SmartIO support] driver with "[*]" for built-in (not "[M]"), then
+ select [Exit] to exit this program.
+
+3.5.5 Rebuild kernel
+--------------------
+
+ The following are for Linux kernel rebuilding, for your
+ reference only.
+
+ For appropriate details, please refer to the Linux document:
+
+ a. Run the following commands::
+
+ cd /usr/src/linux
+ make clean # take a few minutes
+ make dep # take a few minutes
+ make bzImage # take probably 10-20 minutes
+ make install # copy boot image to correct position
+
+ f. Please make sure the boot kernel (vmlinuz) is in the
+ correct position.
+ g. If you use 'lilo' utility, you should check /etc/lilo.conf
+ 'image' item specified the path which is the 'vmlinuz' path,
+ or you will load wrong (or old) boot kernel image (vmlinuz).
+ After checking /etc/lilo.conf, please run "lilo".
+
+ Note that if the result of "make bzImage" is ERROR, then you have to
+ go back to Linux configuration Setup. Type "make menuconfig" in
+ directory /usr/src/linux.
+
+
+3.5.6 Make tty device and special file
+--------------------------------------
+
+ ::
+ # cd /moxa/mxser/driver
+ # ./msmknod
+
+3.5.7 Make utility
+------------------
+
+ ::
+
+ # cd /moxa/mxser/utility
+ # make clean; make install
+
+3.5.8 Reboot
+------------
+
+
+
+3.6 Custom configuration
+========================
+
+ Although this driver already provides you default configuration, you
+ still can change the device name and major number. The instruction to
+ change these parameters are shown as below.
+
+a. Change Device name
+
+ If you'd like to use other device names instead of default naming
+ convention, all you have to do is to modify the internal code
+ within the shell script "msmknod". First, you have to open "msmknod"
+ by vi. Locate each line contains "ttyM" and "cum" and change them
+ to the device name you desired. "msmknod" creates the device names
+ you need next time executed.
+
+b. Change Major number
+
+ If major number 30 and 35 had been occupied, you may have to select
+ 2 free major numbers for this driver. There are 3 steps to change
+ major numbers.
+
+3.6.1 Find free major numbers
+-----------------------------
+
+ In /proc/devices, you may find all the major numbers occupied
+ in the system. Please select 2 major numbers that are available.
+ e.g. 40, 45.
+
+3.6.2 Create special files
+--------------------------
+
+ Run /moxa/mxser/driver/msmknod to create special files with
+ specified major numbers.
+
+3.6.3 Modify driver with new major number
+-----------------------------------------
+
+ Run vi to open /moxa/mxser/driver/mxser.c. Locate the line
+ contains "MXSERMAJOR". Change the content as below::
+
+ #define MXSERMAJOR 40
+ #define MXSERCUMAJOR 45
+
+ 3.6.4 Run "make clean; make install" in /moxa/mxser/driver.
+
+3.7 Verify driver installation
+==============================
+
+ You may refer to /var/log/messages to check the latest status
+ log reported by this driver whenever it's activated.
+
+4. Utilities
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ There are 3 utilities contained in this driver. They are msdiag, msmon and
+ msterm. These 3 utilities are released in form of source code. They should
+ be compiled into executable file and copied into /usr/bin.
+
+ Before using these utilities, please load driver (refer 3.4 & 3.5) and
+ make sure you had run the "msmknod" utility.
+
+msdiag - Diagnostic
+===================
+
+ This utility provides the function to display what Moxa Smartio/Industio
+ board found by driver in the system.
+
+msmon - Port Monitoring
+=======================
+
+ This utility gives the user a quick view about all the MOXA ports'
+ activities. One can easily learn each port's total received/transmitted
+ (Rx/Tx) character count since the time when the monitoring is started.
+
+ Rx/Tx throughputs per second are also reported in interval basis (e.g.
+ the last 5 seconds) and in average basis (since the time the monitoring
+ is started). You can reset all ports' count by <HOME> key. <+> <->
+ (plus/minus) keys to change the displaying time interval. Press <ENTER>
+ on the port, that cursor stay, to view the port's communication
+ parameters, signal status, and input/output queue.
+
+msterm - Terminal Emulation
+===========================
+
+ This utility provides data sending and receiving ability of all tty ports,
+ especially for MOXA ports. It is quite useful for testing simple
+ application, for example, sending AT command to a modem connected to the
+ port or used as a terminal for login purpose. Note that this is only a
+ dumb terminal emulation without handling full screen operation.
+
+5. Setserial
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ Supported Setserial parameters are listed as below.
+
+ ============== =========================================================
+ uart set UART type(16450-->disable FIFO, 16550A-->enable FIFO)

+1. initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually AT+CMUX= command) through
+ its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
+ parameters to this command,
+2. switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
+ TIOCSETD ioctl,
+3. configure the mux using GSMIOC_GETCONF / GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl,
+
+Major parts of the initialization program :
+(a good starting point is util-linux-ng/sys-utils/ldattach.c)::
+
+ #include <linux/gsmmux.h>
+ #define N_GSM0710 21 /* GSM 0710 Mux */
+ #define DEFAULT_SPEED B115200
+ #define SERIAL_PORT /dev/ttyS0
+
+ int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
+ struct gsm_config c;
+ struct termios configuration;
+
+ /* open the serial port connected to the modem */
+ fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
+
+ /* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
+
+ /* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
+ and check that it's successful (should return OK) */
+ write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
+
+ /* experience showed that some modems need some time before
+ being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
+ may be needed here in some case */
+ sleep(3);
+
+ /* use n_gsm line discipline */
+ ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
+
+ /* get n_gsm configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
+ /* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
+ c.initiator = 1;
+ c.encapsulation = 0;
+ /* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
+ c.mru = 127;
+ c.mtu = 127;
+ /* set the new configuration */
+ ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
+
+ /* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
+ daemon(0,0);
+ pause();
+
+4. create the devices corresponding to the "virtual" serial ports (take care,
+ each modem has its configuration and some DLC have dedicated functions,
+ for example GPS), starting with minor 1 (DLC0 is reserved for the management
+ of the mux)::
+
+ MAJOR=`cat /proc/devices |grep gsmtty | awk '{print $1}`
+ for i in `seq 1 4`; do
+ mknod /dev/ttygsm$i c $MAJOR $i
+ done
+
+5. use these devices as plain serial ports.
+
+ for example, it's possible:
+
+ - and to use gnokii to send / receive SMS on ttygsm1
+ - to use ppp to establish a datalink on ttygsm2
+
+6. first close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.
+
+ Note that after closing the physical port the modem is still in multiplexing
+ mode. This may prevent a successful re-opening of the port later. To avoid
+ this situation either reset the modem if your hardware allows that or send
+ a disconnect command frame manually before initializing the multiplexing mode
+ for the second time. The byte sequence for the disconnect command frame is::
+
+ 0xf9, 0x03, 0xef, 0x03, 0xc3, 0x16, 0xf9.

+Disclaimer
+----------
+
+Translation's purpose is to ease reading and understanding in languages other
+than English. Its aim is to help people who do not understand English or have
+doubts about its interpretation. Additionally, some people prefer to read
+documentation in their native language, but please bear in mind that the
+*only* official documentation is the English one: :ref:`linux_doc`.
+
+It is very unlikely that an update to :ref:`linux_doc` will be propagated
+immediately to all translations. Translations' maintainers - and
+contributors - follow the evolution of the official documentation and they
+maintain translations aligned as much as they can. For this reason there is
+no guarantee that a translation is up to date. If what you read in a
+translation does not sound right compared to what you read in the code, please
+inform the translation maintainer and - if you can - check also the English
+documentation.
+
+A translation is not a fork of the official documentation, therefore
+translations' users should not find information that differs from the official
+English documentation. Any content addition, removal or update, must be
+applied to the English documents first. Afterwards and when possible, the
+same change should be applied to translations. Translations' maintainers
+accept only contributions that are merely translation related (e.g. new
+translations, updates, fixes).
+
+Translations try to be as accurate as possible but it is not possible to map
+one language directly to all other languages. Each language has its own
+grammar and culture, so the translation of an English statement may need to be
+adapted to fit a different language. For this reason, when viewing
+translations, you may find slight differences that carry the same message but
+in a different form.
+
+If you need to communicate with the Linux community but you do not feel
+comfortable writing in English, you can ask the translation's maintainers
+for help.

+
+La propagazione simultanea a tutte le traduzioni di una modifica in

+della traduzione e - se potete - verificate anche la documentazione in
+inglese.
+
+Una traduzione non è un *fork* della documentazione ufficiale, perciò gli
+utenti non vi troveranno alcuna informazione diversa rispetto alla versione
+ufficiale. Ogni aggiunta, rimozione o modifica dei contenuti deve essere

+
+Le traduzioni cercano di essere il più possibile accurate ma non è possibile

+potrebbe essere modificata per adattarla all'italiano. Per questo motivo,
+quando leggete questa traduzione, potreste trovare alcune differenze di forma

+==============================================================================
+Interfacce deprecate, caratteristiche del linguaggio, attributi, e convenzioni
+==============================================================================
+
+In un mondo perfetto, sarebbe possibile prendere tutti gli usi di
+un'interfaccia deprecata e convertirli in quella nuova, e così sarebbe
+possibile rimuovere la vecchia interfaccia in un singolo ciclo di sviluppo.
+Tuttavia, per via delle dimensioni del kernel, la gerarchia dei manutentori e
+le tempistiche, non è sempre possibile fare questo tipo di conversione tutta
+in una volta. Questo significa che nuove istanze di una vecchia interfaccia
+potrebbero aggiungersi al kernel proprio quando si sta cercando di rimuoverle,
+aumentando così il carico di lavoro. Al fine di istruire gli sviluppatori su
+cosa è considerato deprecato (e perché), è stata create la seguente lista a cui
+fare riferimento quando qualcuno propone modifiche che usano cose deprecate.
+
+__deprecated
+------------
+Nonostante questo attributo marchi visibilmente un interfaccia come deprecata,
+`non produce piĂą alcun avviso durante la compilazione
+<https://git.kernel.org/linus/771c035372a036f83353eef46dbb829780330234>`_
+perché uno degli obiettivi del kernel è quello di compilare senza avvisi;
+inoltre, nessuno stava agendo per rimuovere queste interfacce. Nonostante l'uso
+di `__deprecated` in un file d'intestazione sia opportuno per segnare una
+interfaccia come 'vecchia', questa non è una soluzione completa. L'interfaccia
+deve essere rimossa dal kernel, o aggiunta a questo documento per scoraggiarne
+l'uso.
+
+Calcoli codificati negli argomenti di un allocatore
+----------------------------------------------------
+Il calcolo dinamico delle dimensioni (specialmente le moltiplicazioni) non
+dovrebbero essere fatto negli argomenti di funzioni di allocazione di memoria
+(o simili) per via del rischio di overflow. Questo può portare a valori più
+piccoli di quelli che il chiamante si aspettava. L'uso di questo modo di
+allocare può portare ad un overflow della memoria di heap e altri
+malfunzionamenti. (Si fa eccezione per valori numerici per i quali il
+compilatore può generare avvisi circa un potenziale overflow. Tuttavia usare
+i valori numerici come suggerito di seguito è innocuo).
+
+Per esempio, non usate ``count * size`` come argomento::
+
+ foo = kmalloc(count * size, GFP_KERNEL);
+
+Al suo posto, si dovrebbe usare l'allocatore a due argomenti::
+
+ foo = kmalloc_array(count, size, GFP_KERNEL);
+
+Se questo tipo di allocatore non è disponibile, allora dovrebbero essere usate
+le funzioni del tipo *saturate-on-overflow*::
+
+ bar = vmalloc(array_size(count, size));
+
+Un altro tipico caso da evitare è quello di calcolare la dimensione di una
+struttura seguita da un vettore di altre strutture, come nel seguente caso::
+
+ header = kzalloc(sizeof(*header) + count * sizeof(*header->item),
+ GFP_KERNEL);
+
+Invece, usate la seguente funzione::
+
+ header = kzalloc(struct_size(header, item, count), GFP_KERNEL);
+
+Per maggiori dettagli fate riferimento a :c:func:`array_size`,
+:c:func:`array3_size`, e :c:func:`struct_size`, così come la famiglia di
+funzioni :c:func:`check_add_overflow` e :c:func:`check_mul_overflow`.
+
+simple_strtol(), simple_strtoll(), simple_strtoul(), simple_strtoull()
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Le funzioni :c:func:`simple_strtol`, :c:func:`simple_strtoll`,
+:c:func:`simple_strtoul`, e :c:func:`simple_strtoull` ignorano volutamente
+i possibili overflow, e questo può portare il chiamante a generare risultati
+inaspettati. Le rispettive funzioni :c:func:`kstrtol`, :c:func:`kstrtoll`,
+:c:func:`kstrtoul`, e :c:func:`kstrtoull` sono da considerarsi le corrette
+sostitute; tuttavia va notato che queste richiedono che la stringa sia
+terminata con il carattere NUL o quello di nuova riga.
+
+strcpy()
+--------
+La funzione :c:func:`strcpy` non fa controlli agli estremi del buffer
+di destinazione. Questo può portare ad un overflow oltre i limiti del
+buffer e generare svariati tipi di malfunzionamenti. Nonostante l'opzione
+`CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y` e svariate opzioni del compilatore aiutano
+a ridurne il rischio, non c'è alcuna buona ragione per continuare ad usare
+questa funzione. La versione sicura da usare è :c:func:`strscpy`.
+
+strncpy() su stringe terminate con NUL
+--------------------------------------
+L'utilizzo di :c:func:`strncpy` non fornisce alcuna garanzia sul fatto che
+il buffer di destinazione verrĂ  terminato con il carattere NUL. Questo
+potrebbe portare a diversi overflow di lettura o altri malfunzionamenti
+causati, appunto, dalla mancanza del terminatore. Questa estende la
+terminazione nel buffer di destinazione quando la stringa d'origine è più
+corta; questo potrebbe portare ad una penalizzazione delle prestazioni per
+chi usa solo stringe terminate. La versione sicura da usare è
+:c:func:`strscpy`. (chi usa :c:func:`strscpy` e necessita di estendere la
+terminazione con NUL deve aggiungere una chiamata a :c:func:`memset`)
+
+Se il chiamate no usa stringhe terminate con NUL, allore :c:func:`strncpy()`
+può continuare ad essere usata, ma i buffer di destinazione devono essere
+marchiati con l'attributo `__nonstring <https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html>`_
+per evitare avvisi durante la compilazione.
+
+strlcpy()
+---------
+La funzione :c:func:`strlcpy`, per prima cosa, legge interamente il buffer di
+origine, magari leggendo piĂą di quanto verrĂ  effettivamente copiato. Questo
+è inefficiente e può portare a overflow di lettura quando la stringa non è
+terminata con NUL. La versione sicura da usare è :c:func:`strscpy`.
+
+Vettori a dimensione variabile (VLA)
+------------------------------------
+
+Usare VLA sullo stack produce codice molto peggiore rispetto a quando si usano
+vettori a dimensione fissa. Questi `problemi di prestazioni <https://git.kernel.org/linus/02361bc77888>`_,
+tutt'altro che banali, sono giĂ  un motivo valido per eliminare i VLA; in
+aggiunta sono anche un problema per la sicurezza. La crescita dinamica di un
+vettore nello stack potrebbe eccedere la memoria rimanente in tale segmento.
+Questo può portare a dei malfunzionamenti, potrebbe sovrascrivere
+dati importanti alla fine dello stack (quando il kernel è compilato senza
+`CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y`), o sovrascrivere un pezzo di memoria adiacente
+allo stack (quando il kernel è compilato senza `CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y`).

+ di diritti sulla licenza.
+
+ In ogni caso, se cessano tutte le violazioni di questa Licenza, allora

+ non ti notifica in alcun modo la violazione entro 60 giorni dalla
+ cessazione della licenza.
+
+ Inoltre, la tua licenza da parte di un dato detentore del copyright
+ viene ripristinata in maniera permanente se il detentore del copyright
+ ti notifica la violazione in maniera adeguata, se questa è la prima

+ qualunque Programma) dallo stesso detentore di copyright, e se rimedi
+ alla violazione entro 30 giorni dalla data di ricezione della notifica

+
+Fornendo queste garanzie, abbiamo l'intenzione di incoraggiare l'uso del

+distribuiscano a questo software. Vogliamo lavorare con gli utenti in modo
+aperto e trasparente per eliminare ogni incertezza circa le nostre aspettative
+sul rispetto o l'ottemperanza alla licenza che possa limitare l'uso del nostro
+software. Vediamo l'azione legale come ultima spiaggia, da avviare solo quando

+
+Per finire, una volta che un problema di non rispetto della licenza viene
+risolto, speriamo che gli utenti si sentano i benvenuti ad aggregarsi a noi
+nello sviluppo di questo progetto. Lavorando assieme, saremo piĂą forti.
+
+Ad eccezione deve specificato, parliamo per noi stessi, e non per una qualsiasi

+Regole per licenziare il kernel Linux
+=====================================
+
+Il kernel Linux viene rilasciato sotto i termini definiti dalla seconda
+versione della licenza *GNU General Public License* (GPL-2.0), di cui una
+copia è disponibile nel file LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0; a questo si
+aggiunge eccezione per le chiamate di sistema come descritto in
+LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note; tutto ciò è descritto nel file COPYING.
+
+Questo documento fornisce una descrizione su come ogni singolo file sorgente
+debba essere licenziato per far si che sia chiaro e non ambiguo. Questo non
+sostituisce la licenza del kernel.
+
+La licenza descritta nel file COPYING si applica ai sorgenti del kernel nella
+loro interezza, quindi i singoli file sorgenti possono avere diverse licenze ma
+devono essere compatibili con la GPL-2.0::
+
+ GPL-1.0+ : GNU General Public License v1.0 o successiva
+ GPL-2.0+ : GNU General Public License v2.0 o successiva
+ LGPL-2.0 : GNU Library General Public License v2
+ LGPL-2.0+ : GNU Library General Public License v2 o successiva
+ LGPL-2.1 : GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1
+ LGPL-2.1+ : GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 o successiva
+
+A parte questo, i singolo file possono essere forniti con una doppia licenza,
+per esempio con una delle varianti compatibili della GPL e alternativamente con
+una licenza permissiva come BSD, MIT eccetera.
+
+I file d'intestazione per l'API verso lo spazio utente (UAPI) descrivono
+le interfacce usate dai programmi, e per questo sono un caso speciale.
+Secondo le note nel file COPYING, le chiamate di sistema sono un chiaro
+confine oltre il quale non si estendono i requisiti della GPL per quei
+programmi che le usano per comunicare con il kernel. Dato che i file
+d'intestazione UAPI devono poter essere inclusi nei sorgenti di un
+qualsiasi programma eseguibile sul kernel Linux, questi meritano
+un'eccezione documentata da una clausola speciale.
+
+Il modo più comune per indicare la licenza dei file sorgenti è quello di
+aggiungere il corrispondente blocco di testo come commento in testa a detto
+file. Per via della formattazione, dei refusi, eccetera, questi blocchi di
+testo sono difficili da identificare dagli strumenti usati per verificare il
+rispetto delle licenze.
+
+Un'alternativa ai blocchi di testo è data dall'uso degli identificatori
+*Software Package Data Exchange* (SPDX) in ogni file sorgente. Gli
+identificatori di licenza SPDX sono analizzabili dalle macchine e sono precisi
+simboli stenografici che identificano la licenza sotto la quale viene
+licenziato il file che lo include. Gli identificatori di licenza SPDX sono
+gestiti del gruppo di lavoro SPDX presso la Linux Foundation e sono stati
+concordati fra i soci nell'industria, gli sviluppatori di strumenti, e i
+rispettivi gruppi legali. Per maggiori informazioni, consultate
+https://spdx.org/
+
+Il kernel Linux richiede un preciso identificatore SPDX in tutti i file
+sorgenti. Gli identificatori validi verranno spiegati nella sezione
+`Identificatori di licenza`_ e sono stati copiati dalla lista ufficiale di
+licenze SPDX assieme al rispettivo testo come mostrato in
+https://spdx.org/licenses/.
+
+Sintassi degli identificatori di licenza
+----------------------------------------
+
+1. Posizionamento:
+
+ L'identificativo di licenza SPDX dev'essere posizionato come prima riga
+ possibile di un file che possa contenere commenti. Per la maggior parte
+ dei file questa è la prima riga, fanno eccezione gli script che richiedono
+ come prima riga '#!PATH_TO_INTERPRETER'. Per questi script l'identificativo
+ SPDX finisce nella seconda riga.
+
+|
+
+2. Stile:
+
+ L'identificativo di licenza SPDX viene aggiunto sotto forma di commento.
+ Lo stile del commento dipende dal tipo di file::
+
+ sorgenti C: // SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression>
+ intestazioni C: /* SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> */
+ ASM: /* SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> */
+ scripts: # SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression>
+ .rst: .. SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression>
+ .dts{i}: // SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression>
+
+ Se un particolare programma non dovesse riuscire a gestire lo stile
+ principale per i commenti, allora dev'essere usato il meccanismo accettato
+ dal programma. Questo è il motivo per cui si ha "/\* \*/" nei file
+ d'intestazione C. Notammo che 'ld' falliva nell'analizzare i commenti del
+ C++ nei file .lds che venivano prodotti. Oggi questo è stato corretto,
+ ma ci sono in giro ancora vecchi programmi che non sono in grado di
+ gestire lo stile dei commenti del C++.
+
+|
+
+3. Sintassi:
+
+ Una <espressione di licenza SPDX> può essere scritta usando l'identificatore
+ SPDX della licenza come indicato nella lista di licenze SPDX, oppure la
+ combinazione di due identificatori SPDX separati da "WITH" per i casi
+ eccezionali. Quando si usano piĂą licenze l'espressione viene formata da
+ sottoespressioni separate dalle parole chiave "AND", "OR" e racchiuse fra
+ parentesi tonde "(", ")".
+
+ Gli identificativi di licenza per licenze come la [L]GPL che si avvalgono
+ dell'opzione 'o successive' si formano aggiungendo alla fine il simbolo "+"
+ per indicare l'opzione 'o successive'.::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1+
+
+ WITH dovrebbe essere usato quando sono necessarie delle modifiche alla
+ licenza. Per esempio, la UAPI del kernel linux usa l'espressione::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note
+
+ Altri esempi di usi di WITH all'interno del kernel sono::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH mif-exception
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ WITH GCC-exception-2.0
+
+ Le eccezioni si possono usare solo in combinazione con identificatori di
+ licenza. Gli identificatori di licenza riconosciuti sono elencati nei
+ corrispondenti file d'eccezione. Per maggiori dettagli consultate
+ `Eccezioni`_ nel capitolo `Identificatori di licenza`_
+
+ La parola chiave OR dovrebbe essere usata solo quando si usa una doppia
+ licenza e solo una dev'essere scelta. Per esempio, alcuni file dtsi sono
+ disponibili con doppia licenza::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause
+
+ Esempi dal kernel di espressioni per file licenziati con doppia licenza
+ sono::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR MIT
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-2-Clause
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR Apache-2.0
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR MPL-1.1
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-1.0+ OR BSD-3-Clause OR OpenSSL
+
+ La parola chiave AND dovrebbe essere usata quando i termini di piĂą licenze
+ si applicano ad un file. Per esempio, quando il codice viene preso da
+ un altro progetto il quale da i permessi per aggiungerlo nel kernel ma
+ richiede che i termini originali della licenza rimangano intatti::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT
+
+ Di seguito, un altro esempio dove entrambe i termini di licenza devono
+ essere rispettati::
+
+ // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-1.0+ AND LGPL-2.1+
+
+Identificatori di licenza
+-------------------------
+
+Le licenze attualmente in uso, così come le licenze aggiunte al kernel, possono
+essere categorizzate in:
+
+1. _`Licenze raccomandate`:
+
+ Ovunque possibile le licenze qui indicate dovrebbero essere usate perché
+ pienamente compatibili e molto usate. Queste licenze sono disponibile nei
+ sorgenti del kernel, nella cartella::
+
+ LICENSES/preferred/
+
+ I file in questa cartella contengono il testo completo della licenza e i
+ `Metatag`_. Il nome di questi file è lo stesso usato come identificatore
+ di licenza SPDX e che deve essere usato nei file sorgenti.
+
+ Esempi::
+
+ LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
+
+ Contiene il testo della seconda versione della licenza GPL e i metatag
+ necessari::
+
+ LICENSES/preferred/MIT
+
+ Contiene il testo della licenza MIT e i metatag necessari.
+
+ _`Metatag`:
+
+ I seguenti metatag devono essere presenti in un file di licenza:
+
+ - Valid-License-Identifier:
+
+ Una o piĂą righe che dichiarano quali identificatori di licenza sono validi
+ all'interno del progetto per far riferimento alla licenza in questione.
+ Solitamente, questo è un unico identificatore valido, ma per esempio le
+ licenze che permettono l'opzione 'o successive' hanno due identificatori
+ validi.
+
+ - SPDX-URL:
+
+ L'URL della pagina SPDX che contiene informazioni aggiuntive riguardanti
+ la licenza.
+
+ - Usage-Guidance:
+
+ Testo in formato libero per dare suggerimenti agli utenti. Il testo deve
+ includere degli esempi su come usare gli identificatori di licenza SPDX
+ in un file sorgente in conformitĂ  con le linea guida in
+ `Sintassi degli identificatori di licenza`_.
+
+ - License-Text:
+
+ Tutto il testo che compare dopo questa etichetta viene trattato
+ come se fosse parte del testo originale della licenza.
+
+ Esempi::
+
+ Valid-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
+ Valid-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
+ SPDX-URL: https://spdx.org/licenses/GPL-2.0.html
+ Usage-Guide:
+ To use this license in source code, put one of the following SPDX
+ tag/value pairs into a comment according to the placement
+ guidelines in the licensing rules documentation.
+ For 'GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 only' use:
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
+ For 'GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or any later version' use:
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
+ License-Text:
+ Full license text
+
+ ::
+
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
+ SPDX-URL: https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html
+ Usage-Guide:
+ To use this license in source code, put the following SPDX
+ tag/value pair into a comment according to the placement
+ guidelines in the licensing rules documentation.
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
+ License-Text:
+ Full license text
+
+|
+
+2. Licenze non raccomandate:
+
+ Questo tipo di licenze dovrebbero essere usate solo per codice giĂ  esistente
+ o quando si prende codice da altri progetti. Le licenze sono disponibili
+ nei sorgenti del kernel nella cartella::
+
+ LICENSES/other/
+
+ I file in questa cartella contengono il testo completo della licenza e i
+ `Metatag`_. Il nome di questi file è lo stesso usato come identificatore
+ di licenza SPDX e che deve essere usato nei file sorgenti.
+
+ Esempi::
+
+ LICENSES/other/ISC
+
+ Contiene il testo della licenza Internet System Consortium e i suoi
+ metatag::
+
+ LICENSES/other/ZLib
+
+ Contiene il testo della licenza ZLIB e i suoi metatag.
+
+ Metatag:
+
+ I metatag necessari per le 'altre' ('other') licenze sono gli stessi
+ di usati per le `Licenze raccomandate`_.
+
+ Esempio del formato del file::
+
+ Valid-License-Identifier: ISC
+ SPDX-URL: https://spdx.org/licenses/ISC.html
+ Usage-Guide:
+ Usage of this license in the kernel for new code is discouraged
+ and it should solely be used for importing code from an already
+ existing project.
+ To use this license in source code, put the following SPDX
+ tag/value pair into a comment according to the placement
+ guidelines in the licensing rules documentation.
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: ISC
+ License-Text:
+ Full license text
+
+|
+
+3. _`Eccezioni`:
+
+ Alcune licenze possono essere corrette con delle eccezioni che forniscono
+ diritti aggiuntivi. Queste eccezioni sono disponibili nei sorgenti del
+ kernel nella cartella::
+
+ LICENSES/exceptions/
+
+ I file in questa cartella contengono il testo completo dell'eccezione e i
+ `Metatag per le eccezioni`_.
+
+ Esempi::
+
+ LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note
+
+ Contiene la descrizione dell'eccezione per le chiamate di sistema Linux
+ così come documentato nel file COPYING del kernel Linux; questo viene usato
+ per i file d'intestazione per la UAPI. Per esempio
+ /\* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note \*/::
+
+ LICENSES/exceptions/GCC-exception-2.0
+
+ Contiene la 'eccezione di linking' che permette di collegare qualsiasi
+ binario, indipendentemente dalla sua licenza, con un compilato il cui file
+ sorgente è marchiato con questa eccezione. Questo è necessario per creare
+ eseguibili dai sorgenti che non sono compatibili con la GPL.
+
+ _`Metatag per le eccezioni`:
+
+ Un file contenente un'eccezione deve avere i seguenti metatag:
+
+ - SPDX-Exception-Identifier:
+
+ Un identificatore d'eccezione che possa essere usato in combinazione con
+ un identificatore di licenza SPDX.
+
+ - SPDX-URL:
+
+ L'URL della pagina SPDX che contiene informazioni aggiuntive riguardanti
+ l'eccezione.
+
+ - SPDX-Licenses:
+
+ Una lista di licenze SPDX separate da virgola, che possono essere usate
+ con l'eccezione.
+
+ - Usage-Guidance:
+
+ Testo in formato libero per dare suggerimenti agli utenti. Il testo deve
+ includere degli esempi su come usare gli identificatori di licenza SPDX
+ in un file sorgente in conformitĂ  con le linea guida in
+ `Sintassi degli identificatori di licenza`_.
+
+ - Exception-Text:
+
+ Tutto il testo che compare dopo questa etichetta viene trattato
+ come se fosse parte del testo originale della licenza.
+
+ Esempi::
+
+ SPDX-Exception-Identifier: Linux-syscall-note
+ SPDX-URL: https://spdx.org/licenses/Linux-syscall-note.html
+ SPDX-Licenses: GPL-2.0, GPL-2.0+, GPL-1.0+, LGPL-2.0, LGPL-2.0+, LGPL-2.1, LGPL-2.1+
+ Usage-Guidance:
+ This exception is used together with one of the above SPDX-Licenses
+ to mark user-space API (uapi) header files so they can be included
+ into non GPL compliant user-space application code.
+ To use this exception add it with the keyword WITH to one of the
+ identifiers in the SPDX-Licenses tag:
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX-License> WITH Linux-syscall-note
+ Exception-Text:
+ Full exception text
+
+ ::
+
+ SPDX-Exception-Identifier: GCC-exception-2.0
+ SPDX-URL: https://spdx.org/licenses/GCC-exception-2.0.html
+ SPDX-Licenses: GPL-2.0, GPL-2.0+
+ Usage-Guidance:
+ The "GCC Runtime Library exception 2.0" is used together with one
+ of the above SPDX-Licenses for code imported from the GCC runtime
+ library.
+ To use this exception add it with the keyword WITH to one of the
+ identifiers in the SPDX-Licenses tag:
+ SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX-License> WITH GCC-exception-2.0
+ Exception-Text:
+ Full exception text
+
+Per ogni identificatore di licenza SPDX e per le eccezioni dev'esserci un file
+nella sotto-cartella LICENSES. Questo è necessario per permettere agli
+strumenti di effettuare verifiche (come checkpatch.pl), per avere le licenze
+disponibili per la lettura e per estrarre i diritti dai sorgenti, così come
+raccomandato da diverse organizzazioni FOSS, per esempio l'`iniziativa FSFE
+REUSE <https://reuse.software/>`_.
+
+_`MODULE_LICENSE`
+-----------------
+
+ I moduli del kernel necessitano di un'etichetta MODULE_LICENSE(). Questa
+ etichetta non sostituisce le informazioni sulla licenza del codice sorgente
+ (SPDX-License-Identifier) né fornisce informazioni che esprimono o
+ determinano l'esatta licenza sotto la quale viene rilasciato.
+
+ Il solo scopo di questa etichetta è quello di fornire sufficienti
+ informazioni al caricatore di moduli del kernel, o agli strumenti in spazio
+ utente, per capire se il modulo è libero o proprietario.
+
+ Le stringe di licenza valide per MODULE_LICENSE() sono:
+
+ ============================= =============================================
+ "GPL" Il modulo è licenziato con la GPL versione 2.
+ Questo non fa distinzione fra GPL'2.0-only o
+ GPL-2.0-or-later. L'esatta licenza può essere
+ determinata solo leggendo i corrispondenti
+ file sorgenti.
+
+ "GPL v2" Stesso significato di "GPL". Esiste per
+ motivi storici.
+
+ "GPL and additional rights" Questa è una variante che esiste per motivi
+ storici che indica che i sorgenti di un
+ modulo sono rilasciati sotto una variante
+ della licenza GPL v2 e quella MIT. Per favore
+ non utilizzatela per codice nuovo.
+
+ "Dual MIT/GPL" Questo è il modo corretto per esprimere il
+ il fatto che il modulo è rilasciato con
+ doppia licenza a scelta fra: una variante
+ della GPL v2 o la licenza MIT.
+
+ "Dual BSD/GPL" Questo modulo è rilasciato con doppia licenza
+ a scelta fra: una variante della GPL v2 o la
+ licenza BSD. La variante esatta della licenza
+ BSD può essere determinata solo attraverso i
+ corrispondenti file sorgenti.
+
+ "Dual MPL/GPL" Questo modulo è rilasciato con doppia licenza
+ a scelta fra: una variante della GPL v2 o la
+ Mozilla Public License (MPL). La variante
+ esatta della licenza MPL può essere
+ determinata solo attraverso i corrispondenti
+ file sorgenti.
+
+ "Proprietary" Questo modulo è rilasciato con licenza
+ proprietaria. Questa stringa è solo per i
+ moduli proprietari di terze parti e non può
+ essere usata per quelli che risiedono nei
+ sorgenti del kernel. I moduli etichettati in
+ questo modo stanno contaminando il kernel e
+ gli viene assegnato un flag 'P'; quando
+ vengono caricati, il caricatore di moduli del
+ kernel si rifiuterĂ  di collegare questi
+ moduli ai simboli che sono stati esportati
+ con EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL().

+La guida a PGP per manutentori del kernel
+=========================================
+
+:Author: Konstantin Ryabitsev <konstantin@linuxfoundation.org>
+
+Questo documento è destinato agli sviluppatori del kernel Linux, in particolar
+modo ai manutentori. Contiene degli approfondimenti riguardo informazioni che
+sono state affrontate in maniera piĂą generale nella sezione
+"`Protecting Code Integrity`_" pubblicata dalla Linux Foundation.
+Per approfondire alcuni argomenti trattati in questo documento è consigliato
+leggere il documento sopraindicato
+
+.. _`Protecting Code Integrity`: https://github.com/lfit/itpol/blob/master/protecting-code-integrity.md
+
+Il ruolo di PGP nello sviluppo del kernel Linux
+===============================================
+
+PGP aiuta ad assicurare l'integritĂ  del codice prodotto dalla comunitĂ 
+di sviluppo del kernel e, in secondo luogo, stabilisce canali di comunicazione
+affidabili tra sviluppatori attraverso lo scambio di email firmate con PGP.
+
+Il codice sorgente del kernel Linux è disponibile principalmente in due
+formati:
+
+- repositori distribuiti di sorgenti (git)
+- rilasci periodici di istantanee (archivi tar)
+
+Sia i repositori git che gli archivi tar portano le firme PGP degli
+sviluppatori che hanno creato i rilasci ufficiali del kernel. Queste firme
+offrono una garanzia crittografica che le versioni scaricabili rese disponibili
+via kernel.org, o altri portali, siano identiche a quelle che gli sviluppatori
+hanno sul loro posto di lavoro. A tal scopo:
+
+- i repositori git forniscono firme PGP per ogni tag
+- gli archivi tar hanno firme separate per ogni archivio
+
+.. _it_devs_not_infra:
+
+Fidatevi degli sviluppatori e non dell'infrastruttura
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+Fin dal 2011, quando i sistemi di kernel.org furono compromessi, il principio
+generale del progetto Kernel Archives è stato quello di assumere che qualsiasi
+parte dell'infrastruttura possa essere compromessa in ogni momento. Per questa
+ragione, gli amministratori hanno intrapreso deliberatemene dei passi per
+enfatizzare che la fiducia debba risiedere sempre negli sviluppatori e mai nel
+codice che gestisce l'infrastruttura, indipendentemente da quali che siano le
+pratiche di sicurezza messe in atto.
+
+Il principio sopra indicato è la ragione per la quale è necessaria questa
+guida. Vogliamo essere sicuri che il riporre la fiducia negli sviluppatori
+non sia fatto semplicemente per incolpare qualcun'altro per future falle di
+sicurezza. L'obiettivo è quello di fornire una serie di linee guida che gli
+sviluppatori possano seguire per creare un ambiente di lavoro sicuro e
+salvaguardare le chiavi PGP usate nello stabilire l'integritĂ  del kernel Linux
+stesso.

+
+Strumenti PGP
+=============
+
+Usare GnuPG v2
+--------------
+
+La vostra distribuzione potrebbe avere giĂ  installato GnuPG, dovete solo
+verificare che stia utilizzando la versione 2.x e non la serie 1.4 --
+molte distribuzioni forniscono entrambe, di base il comando ''gpg''
+invoca GnuPG v.1. Per controllate usate::
+
+ $ gpg --version | head -n1
+
+Se visualizzate ``gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.x``, allora state usando GnuPG v.1.
+Provate il comando ``gpg2`` (se non lo avete, potreste aver bisogno
+di installare il pacchetto gnupg2)::
+
+ $ gpg2 --version | head -n1
+
+Se visualizzate ``gpg (GnuPG) 2.x.x``, allora siete pronti a partire.
+Questa guida assume che abbiate la versione 2.2.(o successiva) di GnuPG.
+Se state usando la versione 2.0, alcuni dei comandi indicati qui non
+funzioneranno, in questo caso considerate un aggiornamento all'ultima versione,
+la 2.2. Versioni di gnupg-2.1.11 e successive dovrebbero essere compatibili
+per gli obiettivi di questa guida.
+
+Se avete entrambi i comandi: ``gpg`` e ``gpg2``, assicuratevi di utilizzare
+sempre la versione V2, e non quella vecchia. Per evitare errori potreste creare
+un alias::
+
+ $ alias gpg=gpg2
+
+Potete mettere questa opzione nel vostro ``.bashrc`` in modo da essere sicuri.
+
+Configurare le opzioni di gpg-agent
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+L'agente GnuPG è uno strumento di aiuto che partirà automaticamente ogni volta
+che userete il comando ``gpg`` e funzionerĂ  in background con l'obiettivo di
+individuare la passphrase. Ci sono due opzioni che dovreste conoscere
+per personalizzare la scadenza della passphrase nella cache:
+
+- ``default-cache-ttl`` (secondi): Se usate ancora la stessa chiave prima
+ che il time-to-live termini, il conto alla rovescia si resetterĂ  per un
+ altro periodo. Di base è di 600 (10 minuti).
+
+- ``max-cache-ttl`` (secondi): indipendentemente da quanto sia recente l'ultimo
+ uso della chiave da quando avete inserito la passphrase, se il massimo
+ time-to-live è scaduto, dovrete reinserire nuovamente la passphrase.
+ Di base è di 30 minuti.
+
+Se ritenete entrambe questi valori di base troppo corti (o troppo lunghi),
+potete creare il vostro file ``~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf`` ed impostare i vostri
+valori::
+
+ # set to 30 minutes for regular ttl, and 2 hours for max ttl
+ default-cache-ttl 1800
+ max-cache-ttl 7200
+
+.. note::
+
+ Non è più necessario far partire l'agente gpg manualmente all'inizio della
+ vostra sessione. Dovreste controllare i file rc per rimuovere tutto ciò che
+ riguarda vecchie le versioni di GnuPG, poiché potrebbero non svolgere più
+ bene il loro compito.
+
+Impostare un *refresh* con cronjob
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Potreste aver bisogno di rinfrescare regolarmente il vostro portachiavi in
+modo aggiornare le chiavi pubbliche di altre persone, lavoro che è svolto
+al meglio con un cronjob giornaliero::
+
+ @daily /usr/bin/gpg2 --refresh >/dev/null 2>&1
+
+Controllate il percorso assoluto del vostro comando ``gpg`` o ``gpg2`` e usate
+il comando ``gpg2`` se per voi ``gpg`` corrisponde alla versione GnuPG v.1.

+Proteggere la vostra chiave PGP primaria
========================================
-Guida a PGP per i manutentori del kernel
-========================================
+
+Questa guida parte dal presupposto che abbiate giĂ  una chiave PGP che usate
+per lo sviluppo del kernel Linux. Se non ne avete ancora una, date uno sguardo
+al documento "`Protecting Code Integrity`_" che abbiamo menzionato prima.
+
+Dovreste inoltre creare una nuova chiave se quella attuale è inferiore a 2048
+bit (RSA).
+
+Chiave principale o sottochiavi
+-------------------------------
+
+Le sottochiavi sono chiavi PGP totalmente indipendenti, e sono collegate alla
+chiave principale attraverso firme certificate. Ă quindi importante
+comprendere i seguenti punti:
+
+1. Non ci sono differenze tecniche tra la chiave principale e la sottochiave.
+2. In fesa di creazione, assegniamo limitazioni funzionali ad ogni chiave
+ assegnando capacitĂ  specifiche.
+3. Una chiave PGP può avere 4 capacità:
+
+ - **[S]** può essere usata per firmare
+ - **[E]** può essere usata per criptare
+ - **[A]** può essere usata per autenticare
+ - **[C]** può essere usata per certificare altre chiavi
+
+4. Una singola chiave può avere più capacità
+5. Una sottochiave è completamente indipendente dalla chiave principale.
+ Un messaggio criptato con la sottochiave non può essere decrittato con
+ quella principale. Se perdete la vostra sottochiave privata, non può
+ essere rigenerata in nessun modo da quella principale.
+
+La chiave con capacità **[C]** (certify) è identificata come la chiave
+principale perché è l'unica che può essere usata per indicare la relazione
+con altre chiavi. Solo la chiave **[C]** può essere usata per:
+
+- Aggiungere o revocare altre chiavi (sottochiavi) che hanno capacitĂ  S/E/A
+- Aggiungere, modificare o eliminare le identitĂ  (unids) associate alla chiave
+- Aggiungere o modificare la data di termine di sé stessa o di ogni sottochiave
+- Firmare le chiavi di altre persone a scopo di creare una rete di fiducia
+
+Di base, alla creazione di nuove chiavi, GnuPG genera quanto segue:
+
+- Una chiave madre che porta sia la capacitĂ  di certificazione che quella
+ di firma (**[SC]**)
+- Una sottochiave separata con capacitĂ  di criptaggio (**[E]**)
+
+Se avete usato i parametri di base per generare la vostra chiave, quello
+sarĂ  il risultato. Potete verificarlo utilizzando ``gpg --list-secret-keys``,
+per esempio::
+
+ sec rsa2048 2018-01-23 [SC] [expires: 2020-01-23]
+ 000000000000000000000000AAAABBBBCCCCDDDD
+ uid [ultimate] Alice Dev <adev@kernel.org>
+ ssb rsa2048 2018-01-23 [E] [expires: 2020-01-23]
+
+Qualsiasi chiave che abbia la capacità **[C]** è la vostra chiave madre,
+indipendentemente da quali altre capacitĂ  potreste averle assegnato.
+
+La lunga riga sotto la voce ``sec`` è la vostra impronta digitale --
+negli esempi che seguono, quando vedere ``[fpr]`` ci si riferisce a questa
+stringa di 40 caratteri.
+
+Assicuratevi che la vostra passphrase sia forte
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+GnuPG utilizza le passphrases per criptare la vostra chiave privata prima
+di salvarla sul disco. In questo modo, anche se il contenuto della vostra
+cartella ``.gnupg`` venisse letto o trafugato nella sia interezza, gli
+attaccanti non potrebbero comunque utilizzare le vostre chiavi private senza
+aver prima ottenuto la passphrase per decriptarle.
+
+Ă assolutamente essenziale che le vostre chiavi private siano protette da
+una passphrase forte. Per impostarla o cambiarla, usate::
+
+ $ gpg --change-passphrase [fpr]
+
+Create una sottochiave di firma separata
+----------------------------------------
+
+Il nostro obiettivo è di proteggere la chiave primaria spostandola su un
+dispositivo sconnesso dalla rete, dunque se avete solo una chiave combinata
+**[SC]** allora dovreste creare una sottochiave di firma separata::
+
+ $ gpg --quick-add-key [fpr] ed25519 sign
+
+Ricordate di informare il keyserver del vostro cambiamento, cosicché altri
+possano ricevere la vostra nuova sottochiave::
+
+ $ gpg --send-key [fpr]
+
+.. note:: Supporto ECC in GnuPG
+ GnuPG 2.1 e successivi supportano pienamente *Elliptic Curve Cryptography*,
+ con la possibilitĂ  di combinare sottochiavi ECC con le tradizionali chiavi
+ primarie RSA. Il principale vantaggio della crittografia ECC è che è molto
+ piĂą veloce da calcolare e crea firme piĂą piccole se confrontate byte per
+ byte con le chiavi RSA a piĂą di 2048 bit. A meno che non pensiate di
+ utilizzare un dispositivo smartcard che non supporta le operazioni ECC, vi
+ raccomandiamo ti creare sottochiavi di firma ECC per il vostro lavoro col
+ kernel.
+
+ Se per qualche ragione preferite rimanere con sottochiavi RSA, nel comando
+ precedente, sostituite "ed25519" con "rsa2048".
+
+Copia di riserva della chiave primaria per gestire il recupero da disastro
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Maggiori sono le firme di altri sviluppatori che vengono applicate alla vostra,
+maggiori saranno i motivi per avere una copia di riserva che non sia digitale,
+al fine di effettuare un recupero da disastro.
+
+Il modo migliore per creare una copia fisica della vostra chiave privata è
+l'uso del programma ``paperkey``. Consultate ``man paperkey`` per maggiori
+dettagli sul formato dell'output ed i suoi punti di forza rispetto ad altre
+soluzioni. Paperkey dovrebbe essere giĂ  pacchettizzato per la maggior parte
+delle distribuzioni.
+
+Eseguite il seguente comando per creare una copia fisica di riserva della
+vostra chiave privata::
+
+ $ gpg --export-secret-key [fpr] | paperkey -o /tmp/key-backup.txt
+
+Stampate il file (o fate un pipe direttamente verso lpr), poi prendete
+una penna e scrivete la passphare sul margine del foglio. **Questo è
+caldamente consigliato** perché la copia cartacea è comunque criptata con
+la passphrase, e se mai doveste cambiarla non vi ricorderete qual'era al
+momento della creazione di quella copia -- *garantito*.
+
+Mettete la copia cartacea e la passphrase scritta a mano in una busta e
+mettetela in un posto sicuro e ben protetto, preferibilmente fuori casa,
+magari in una cassetta di sicurezza in banca.
+
+.. note::
+
+ Probabilmente la vostra stampante non è più quello stupido dispositivo
+ connesso alla porta parallela, ma dato che il suo output è comunque
+ criptato con la passphrase, eseguire la stampa in un sistema "cloud"
+ moderno dovrebbe essere comunque relativamente sicuro. Un'opzione potrebbe
+ essere quella di cambiare la passphrase della vostra chiave primaria
+ subito dopo aver finito con paperkey.
+
+Copia di riserva di tutta la cartella GnuPG
+-------------------------------------------
.. warning::
- TODO ancora da tradurre
+ **!!!Non saltate questo passo!!!**
+
+Quando avete bisogno di recuperare le vostre chiavi PGP è importante avere
+una copia di riserva pronta all'uso. Questo sta su un diverso piano di
+prontezza rispetto al recupero da disastro che abbiamo risolto con
+``paperkey``. Vi affiderete a queste copie esterne quando dovreste usare la
+vostra chiave Certify -- ovvero quando fate modifiche alle vostre chiavi o
+firmate le chiavi di altre persone ad una conferenza o ad un gruppo d'incontro.
+
+Incominciate con una piccola chiavetta di memoria USB (preferibilmente due)
+che userete per le copie di riserva. Dovrete criptarle usando LUKS -- fate
+riferimento alla documentazione della vostra distribuzione per capire come
+fare.
+
+Per la passphrase di criptazione, potete usare la stessa della vostra chiave
+primaria.
+
+Una volta che il processo di criptazione è finito, reinserite il disco USB ed
+assicurativi che venga montato correttamente. Copiate interamente la cartella
+``.gnugp`` nel disco criptato::
+
+ $ cp -a ~/.gnupg /media/disk/foo/gnupg-backup
+
+Ora dovreste verificare che tutto continui a funzionare::
+
+ $ gpg --homedir=/media/disk/foo/gnupg-backup --list-key [fpr]
+
+Se non vedete errori, allora dovreste avere fatto tutto con successo.
+Smontate il disco USB, etichettatelo per bene di modo da evitare di
+distruggerne il contenuto non appena vi serve una chiavetta USB a caso, ed
+infine mettetelo in un posto sicuro -- ma non troppo lontano, perché vi servirà
+di tanto in tanto per modificare le identitĂ , aggiungere o revocare
+sottochiavi, o firmare le chiavi di altre persone.
+
+Togliete la chiave primaria dalla vostra home
+---------------------------------------------
+
+I file che si trovano nella vostra cartella home non sono poi così ben protetti
+come potreste pensare. Potrebbero essere letti o trafugati in diversi modi:
+
+- accidentalmente quando fate una rapida copia della cartella home per
+ configurare una nuova postazione
+- da un amministratore di sistema negligente o malintenzionato
+- attraverso copie di riserva insicure
+- attraverso malware installato in alcune applicazioni (browser, lettori PDF,
+ eccetera)
+- attraverso coercizione quando attraversate confini internazionali
+
+Proteggere la vostra chiave con una buona passphare aiuta notevolmente a
+ridurre i rischi elencati qui sopra, ma le passphrase possono essere scoperte
+attraverso i keylogger, il shoulder-surfing, o altri modi. Per questi motivi,
+nella configurazione si raccomanda di rimuove la chiave primaria dalla vostra
+cartella home e la si archivia su un dispositivo disconnesso.
+
+.. warning::
+
+ Per favore, fate riferimento alla sezione precedente e assicuratevi
+ di aver fatto una copia di riserva totale della cartella GnuPG. Quello
+ che stiamo per fare renderĂ  la vostra chiave inutile se non avete delle
+ copie di riserva utilizzabili!
+
+Per prima cosa, identificate il keygrip della vostra chiave primaria::
+
+ $ gpg --with-keygrip --list-key [fpr]
+
+L'output assomiglierĂ  a questo::
+
+ pub rsa2048 2018-01-24 [SC] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ 000000000000000000000000AAAABBBBCCCCDDDD
+ Keygrip = 1111000000000000000000000000000000000000
+ uid [ultimate] Alice Dev <adev@kernel.org>
+ sub rsa2048 2018-01-24 [E] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ Keygrip = 2222000000000000000000000000000000000000
+ sub ed25519 2018-01-24 [S]
+ Keygrip = 3333000000000000000000000000000000000000
+
+Trovate la voce keygrid che si trova sotto alla riga ``pub`` (appena sotto
+all'impronta digitale della chiave primaria). Questo corrisponderĂ  direttamente
+ad un file nella cartella ``~/.gnupg``::
+
+ $ cd ~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d
+ $ ls
+ 1111000000000000000000000000000000000000.key
+ 2222000000000000000000000000000000000000.key
+ 3333000000000000000000000000000000000000.key
+
+Quello che dovrete fare è rimuovere il file .key che corrisponde al keygrip
+della chiave primaria::
+
+ $ cd ~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d
+ $ rm 1111000000000000000000000000000000000000.key
+
+Ora, se eseguite il comando ``--list-secret-keys``, vedrete che la chiave
+primaria non compare più (il simbolo ``#`` indica che non è disponibile)::
+
+ $ gpg --list-secret-keys
+ sec# rsa2048 2018-01-24 [SC] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ 000000000000000000000000AAAABBBBCCCCDDDD
+ uid [ultimate] Alice Dev <adev@kernel.org>
+ ssb rsa2048 2018-01-24 [E] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ ssb ed25519 2018-01-24 [S]
+
+Dovreste rimuovere anche i file ``secring.gpg`` che si trovano nella cartella
+``~/.gnupg``, in quanto rimasugli delle versioni precedenti di GnuPG.
+
+Se non avete la cartella "private-keys-v1.d"
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Se non avete la cartella ``~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d``, allora le vostre
+chiavi segrete sono ancora salvate nel vecchio file ``secring.gpg`` usato
+da GnuPG v1. Effettuare una qualsiasi modifica alla vostra chiave, come
+cambiare la passphare o aggiungere una sottochiave, dovrebbe convertire
+automaticamente il vecchio formato ``secring.gpg``nel nuovo
+``private-keys-v1.d``.
+
+Una volta che l'avete fatto, assicuratevi di rimuovere il file ``secring.gpg``,
+che continua a contenere la vostra chiave privata.
+
+.. _it_smartcards:
+
+Spostare le sottochiavi in un apposito dispositivo criptato
+===========================================================
+
+Nonostante la chiave primaria sia ora al riparo da occhi e mani indiscrete,
+le sottochiavi si trovano ancora nella vostra cartella home. Chiunque riesca
+a mettere le sue mani su quelle chiavi riuscirĂ  a decriptare le vostre
+comunicazioni o a falsificare le vostre firme (se conoscono la passphrase).
+Inoltre, ogni volta che viene fatta un'operazione con GnuPG, le chiavi vengono
+caricate nella memoria di sistema e potrebbero essere rubate con l'uso di
+malware sofisticati (pensate a Meltdown e a Spectre).
+
+Il miglior modo per proteggere le proprie chiave è di spostarle su un
+dispositivo specializzato in grado di effettuare operazioni smartcard.
+
+I benefici di una smartcard
+---------------------------
+
+Una smartcard contiene un chip crittografico che è capace di immagazzinare
+le chiavi private ed effettuare operazioni crittografiche direttamente sulla
+carta stessa. Dato che la chiave non lascia mai la smartcard, il sistema
+operativo usato sul computer non sarĂ  in grado di accedere alle chiavi.
+Questo è molto diverso dai dischi USB criptati che abbiamo usato allo scopo di
+avere una copia di riserva sicura -- quando il dispositivo USB è connesso e
+montato, il sistema operativo potrĂ  accedere al contenuto delle chiavi private.
+
+L'uso di un disco USB criptato non può sostituire le funzioni di un dispositivo
+capace di operazioni di tipo smartcard.
+
+Dispositivi smartcard disponibili
+---------------------------------
+
+A meno che tutti i vostri computer dispongano di lettori smartcard, il modo
+più semplice è equipaggiarsi di un dispositivo USB specializzato che
+implementi le funzionalitĂ  delle smartcard. Sul mercato ci sono diverse
+soluzioni disponibili:
+
+- `Nitrokey Start`_: è Open hardware e Free Software, è basata sul progetto
+ `GnuK`_ della FSIJ. Ha il supporto per chiavi ECC, ma meno funzionalitĂ  di
+ sicurezza (come la resistenza alla manomissione o alcuni attacchi ad un
+ canale laterale).
+- `Nitrokey Pro`_: è simile alla Nitrokey Start, ma è più resistente alla
+ manomissione e offre piĂą funzionalitĂ  di sicurezza, ma l'ECC.
+- `Yubikey 4`_: l'hardware e il software sono proprietari, ma è più economica
+ della Nitrokey Pro ed è venduta anche con porta USB-C il che è utile con i
+ computer portatili piĂą recenti. In aggiunta, offre altre funzionalitĂ  di
+ sicurezza come FIDO, U2F, ma non l'ECC
+
+`Su LWN c'è una buona recensione`_ dei modelli elencati qui sopra e altri.
+Se volete usare chiavi ECC, la vostra migliore scelta sul mercato è la
+Nitrokey Start.

+
+Configurare il vostro dispositivo smartcard
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Il vostro dispositivo smartcard dovrebbe iniziare a funzionare non appena
+lo collegate ad un qualsiasi computer Linux moderno. Potete verificarlo
+eseguendo::
+
+ $ gpg --card-status
+
+Se vedete tutti i dettagli della smartcard, allora ci siamo. Sfortunatamente,
+affrontare tutti i possibili motivi per cui le cose potrebbero non funzionare
+non è lo scopo di questa guida. Se avete problemi nel far funzionare la carta
+con GnuPG, cercate aiuto attraverso i soliti canali di supporto.
+
+Per configurare la vostra smartcard, dato che non c'è una via facile dalla
+riga di comando, dovrete usate il menu di GnuPG::
+
+ $ gpg --card-edit
+ [...omitted...]
+ gpg/card> admin
+ Admin commands are allowed
+ gpg/card> passwd
+
+Dovreste impostare il PIN dell'utente (1), quello dell'amministratore (3) e il
+codice di reset (4). Assicuratevi di annotare e salvare questi codici in un
+posto sicuro -- specialmente il PIN dell'amministratore e il codice di reset
+(che vi permetterĂ  di azzerare completamente la smartcard). Il PIN
+dell'amministratore viene usato così raramente che è inevitabile dimenticarselo
+se non lo si annota.
+
+Tornando al nostro menu, potete impostare anche altri valori (come il nome,
+il sesso, informazioni d'accesso, eccetera), ma non sono necessari e aggiunge
+altre informazioni sulla carta che potrebbero trapelare in caso di smarrimento.
+
+.. note::
+
+ A dispetto del nome "PIN", né il PIN utente né quello dell'amministratore
+ devono essere esclusivamente numerici.
+
+Spostare le sottochiavi sulla smartcard
+---------------------------------------
+
+Uscite dal menu (usando "q") e salverete tutte le modifiche. Poi, spostiamo
+tutte le sottochiavi sulla smartcard. Per la maggior parte delle operazioni
+vi serviranno sia la passphrase della chiave PGP che il PIN
+dell'amministratore::
+
+ $ gpg --edit-key [fpr]
+
+ Secret subkeys are available.
+
+ pub rsa2048/AAAABBBBCCCCDDDD

+ [ultimate] (1). Alice Dev <adev@kernel.org>
+
+ gpg>
+
+Usando ``--edit-key`` si tornerĂ  alla modalitĂ  menu e noterete che
+la lista delle chiavi è leggermente diversa. Da questo momento in poi,
+tutti i comandi saranno eseguiti nella modalitĂ  menu, come indicato
+da ``gpg>``.
+
+Per prima cosa, selezioniamo la chiave che verrĂ  messa sulla carta --
+potete farlo digitando ``key 1`` (è la prima della lista, la sottochiave
+**[E]**)::
+
+ gpg> key 1
+
+Nel'output dovreste vedere ``ssb*`` associato alla chiave **[E]**. Il simbolo
+``*`` indica che la chiave è stata "selezionata". Funziona come un
+interruttore, ovvero se scrivete nuovamente ``key 1``, il simbolo ``*`` sparirĂ 
+e la chiave non sarĂ  piĂą selezionata.
+
+Ora, spostiamo la chiave sulla smartcard::
+
+ gpg> keytocard
+ Please select where to store the key:
+ (2) Encryption key
+ Your selection? 2
+
+Dato che è la nostra chiave **[E]**, ha senso metterla nella sezione criptata.
+Quando confermerete la selezione, vi verrĂ  chiesta la passphrase della vostra
+chiave PGP, e poi il PIN dell'amministratore. Se il comando ritorna senza
+errori, allora la vostra chiave è stata spostata con successo.
+
+**Importante**: digitate nuovamente ``key 1`` per deselezionare la prima chiave
+e selezionate la seconda chiave **[S]** con ``key 2``::
+
+ gpg> key 1
+ gpg> key 2
+ gpg> keytocard
+ Please select where to store the key:
+ (1) Signature key
+ (3) Authentication key
+ Your selection? 1
+
+Potete usare la chiave **[S]** sia per firmare che per autenticare, ma vogliamo
+che sia nella sezione di firma, quindi scegliete (1). Ancora una volta, se il
+comando ritorna senza errori, allora l'operazione è avvenuta con successo::
+
+ gpg> q
+ Save changes? (y/N) y
+
+Salvando le modifiche cancellerete dalla vostra cartella home tutte le chiavi
+che avete spostato sulla carta (ma questo non è un problema, perché abbiamo
+fatto delle copie di sicurezza nel caso in cui dovessimo configurare una
+nuova smartcard).
+
+Verificare che le chiavi siano state spostate
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Ora, se doveste usare l'opzione ``--list-secret-keys``, vedrete una
+sottile differenza nell'output::
+
+ $ gpg --list-secret-keys
+ sec# rsa2048 2018-01-24 [SC] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ 000000000000000000000000AAAABBBBCCCCDDDD
+ uid [ultimate] Alice Dev <adev@kernel.org>
+ ssb> rsa2048 2018-01-24 [E] [expires: 2020-01-24]
+ ssb> ed25519 2018-01-24 [S]
+
+Il simbolo ``>`` in ``ssb>`` indica che la sottochiave è disponibile solo
+nella smartcard. Se tornate nella vostra cartella delle chiavi segrete e
+guardate al suo contenuto, noterete che i file ``.key`` sono stati sostituiti
+con degli stub::
+
+ $ cd ~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d
+ $ strings *.key | grep 'private-key'
+
+Per indicare che i file sono solo degli stub e che in realtà il contenuto è
+sulla smartcard, l'output dovrebbe mostrarvi ``shadowed-private-key``.
+
+Verificare che la smartcard funzioni
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Per verificare che la smartcard funzioni come dovuto, potete creare
+una firma::
+
+ $ echo "Hello world" | gpg --clearsign > /tmp/test.asc
+ $ gpg --verify /tmp/test.asc
+
+Col primo comando dovrebbe chiedervi il PIN della smartcard, e poi dovrebbe
+mostrare "Good signature" dopo l'esecuzione di ``gpg --verify``.
+
+Complimenti, siete riusciti a rendere estremamente difficile il furto della
+vostra identitĂ  digitale di sviluppatore.
+
+Altre operazioni possibili con GnuPG
+------------------------------------
+
+Segue un breve accenno ad alcune delle operazioni piĂą comuni che dovrete
+fare con le vostre chiavi PGP.
+
+Montare il disco con la chiave primaria
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Vi servirĂ  la vostra chiave principale per tutte le operazioni che seguiranno,
+per cui per prima cosa dovrete accedere ai vostri backup e dire a GnuPG di
+usarli::
+
+ $ export GNUPGHOME=/media/disk/foo/gnupg-backup
+ $ gpg --list-secret-keys
+
+Dovete assicurarvi di vedere ``sec`` e non ``sec#`` nell'output del programma
+(il simbolo ``#`` significa che la chiave non è disponibile e che state ancora
+utilizzando la vostra solita cartella di lavoro).
+
+Estendere la data di scadenza di una chiave
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+La chiave principale ha una data di scadenza di 2 anni dal momento della sua
+creazione. Questo per motivi di sicurezza e per rendere obsolete le chiavi
+che, eventualmente, dovessero sparire dai keyserver.
+
+Per estendere di un anno, dalla data odierna, la scadenza di una vostra chiave,
+eseguite::
+
+ $ gpg --quick-set-expire [fpr] 1y
+
+Se per voi è più facile da memorizzare, potete anche utilizzare una data
+specifica (per esempio, il vostro compleanno o capodanno)::
+
+ $ gpg --quick-set-expire [fpr] 2020-07-01
+
+Ricordatevi di inviare l'aggiornamento ai keyserver::
+
+ $ gpg --send-key [fpr]
+
+Aggiornare la vostra cartella di lavoro dopo ogni modifica
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Dopo aver fatto delle modifiche alle vostre chiavi usando uno spazio a parte,
+dovreste importarle nella vostra cartella di lavoro abituale::
+
+ $ gpg --export | gpg --homedir ~/.gnupg --import
+ $ unset GNUPGHOME
+
+
+Usare PGP con Git
+=================
+
+Una delle caratteristiche fondanti di Git è la sua natura decentralizzata --
+una volta che il repositorio è stato clonato sul vostro sistema, avete la
+storia completa del progetto, inclusi i suoi tag, i commit ed i rami. Tuttavia,
+con i centinaia di repositori clonati che ci sono in giro, come si fa a
+verificare che la loro copia di linux.git non è stata manomessa da qualcuno?
+
+Oppure, cosa succede se viene scoperta una backdoor nel codice e la riga
+"Autore" dice che sei stato tu, mentre tu sei abbastanza sicuro di
+`non averci niente a che fare`_?
+
+Per risolvere entrambi i problemi, Git ha introdotto l'integrazione con PGP.
+I tag firmati dimostrano che il repositorio è integro assicurando che il suo
+contenuto è lo stesso che si trova sulle macchine degli sviluppatori che hanno
+creato il tag; mentre i commit firmati rendono praticamente impossibile
+ad un malintenzionato di impersonarvi senza avere accesso alle vostre chiavi
+PGP.
+
+.. _`non averci niente a che fare`: https://github.com/jayphelps/git-blame-someone-else
+
+Configurare git per usare la vostra chiave PGP
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Se avete solo una chiave segreta nel vostro portachiavi, allora non avete nulla
+da fare in piĂą dato che sarĂ  la vostra chiave di base. Tuttavia, se doveste
+avere piĂą chiavi segrete, potete dire a git quale dovrebbe usare (``[fpg]``
+è la vostra impronta digitale)::
+
+ $ git config --global user.signingKey [fpr]
+
+**IMPORTANTE**: se avete una comando dedicato per ``gpg2``, allora dovreste
+dire a git di usare sempre quello piuttosto che il vecchio comando ``gpg``::
+
+ $ git config --global gpg.program gpg2
+
+Come firmare i tag
+------------------
+
+Per creare un tag firmato, passate l'opzione ``-s`` al comando tag::
+
+ $ git tag -s [tagname]
+
+La nostra raccomandazione è quella di firmare sempre i tag git, perché
+questo permette agli altri sviluppatori di verificare che il repositorio
+git dal quale stanno prendendo il codice non è stato alterato intenzionalmente.
+
+Come verificare i tag firmati
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Per verificare un tag firmato, potete usare il comando ``verify-tag``::
+
+ $ git verify-tag [tagname]
+
+Se state prendendo un tag da un fork del repositorio del progetto, git
+dovrebbe verificare automaticamente la firma di quello che state prendendo
+e vi mostrerĂ  il risultato durante l'operazione di merge::
+
+ $ git pull [url] tags/sometag
+
+Il merge conterrĂ  qualcosa di simile::
+
+ Merge tag 'sometag' of [url]
+
+ [Tag message]
+
+ # gpg: Signature made [...]
+ # gpg: Good signature from [...]
+
+Se state verificando il tag di qualcun altro, allora dovrete importare
+la loro chiave PGP. Fate riferimento alla sezione ":ref:`it_verify_identities`"
+che troverete piĂą avanti.
+
+Configurare git per firmare sempre i tag con annotazione
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+Se state creando un tag con annotazione è molto probabile che vogliate
+firmarlo. Per imporre a git di firmare sempre un tag con annotazione,
+dovete impostare la seguente opzione globale::
+
+ $ git config --global tag.forceSignAnnotated true
+
+Come usare commit firmati
+-------------------------
+
+Creare dei commit firmati è facile, ma è molto più difficile utilizzarli
+nello sviluppo del kernel linux per via del fatto che ci si affida alle
+liste di discussione e questo modo di procedere non mantiene le firme PGP
+nei commit. In aggiunta, quando si usa *rebase* nel proprio repositorio
+locale per allinearsi al kernel anche le proprie firme PGP verranno scartate.
+Per questo motivo, la maggior parte degli sviluppatori del kernel non si
+preoccupano troppo di firmare i propri commit ed ignoreranno quelli firmati
+che si trovano in altri repositori usati per il proprio lavoro.
+
+Tuttavia, se avete il vostro repositorio di lavoro disponibile al pubblico
+su un qualche servizio di hosting git (kernel.org, infradead.org, ozlabs.org,
+o altri), allora la raccomandazione è di firmare tutti i vostri commit
+anche se gli sviluppatori non ne beneficeranno direttamente.
+
+Vi raccomandiamo di farlo per i seguenti motivi:
+
+1. Se dovesse mai esserci la necessitĂ  di fare delle analisi forensi o
+ tracciare la provenienza di un codice, anche sorgenti mantenuti
+ esternamente che hanno firme PGP sui commit avranno un certo valore a
+ questo scopo.
+2. Se dovesse mai capitarvi di clonare il vostro repositorio locale (per
+ esempio dopo un danneggiamento del disco), la firma vi permetterĂ  di
+ verificare l'integritĂ  del repositorio prima di riprendere il lavoro.
+3. Se qualcuno volesse usare *cherry-pick* sui vostri commit, allora la firma
+ permetterĂ  di verificare l'integritĂ  dei commit prima di applicarli.
+
+Creare commit firmati
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Per creare un commit firmato, dovete solamente aggiungere l'opzione ``-S``
+al comando ``git commit`` (si usa la lettera maiuscola per evitare
+conflitti con un'altra opzione)::
+
+ $ git commit -S
+
+Configurare git per firmare sempre i commit
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Potete dire a git di firmare sempre i commit::
+
+ git config --global commit.gpgSign true
+
+.. note::
+
+ Assicuratevi di aver configurato ``gpg-agent`` prima di abilitare
+ questa opzione.
+
+.. _it_verify_identities:
+
+Come verificare l'identitĂ  degli sviluppatori del kernel
+========================================================
+
+Firmare i tag e i commit è facile, ma come si fa a verificare che la chiave
+usata per firmare qualcosa appartenga davvero allo sviluppatore e non ad un
+impostore?
+
+Configurare l'auto-key-retrieval usando WKD e DANE
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Se non siete ancora in possesso di una vasta collezione di chiavi pubbliche
+di altri sviluppatori, allora potreste iniziare il vostro portachiavi
+affidandovi ai servizi di auto-scoperta e auto-recupero. GnuPG può affidarsi
+ad altre tecnologie di delega della fiducia, come DNSSEC e TLS, per sostenervi
+nel caso in cui iniziare una propria rete di fiducia da zero sia troppo
+scoraggiante.
+
+Aggiungete il seguente testo al vostro file ``~/.gnupg/gpg.conf``::
+
+ auto-key-locate wkd,dane,local
+ auto-key-retrieve
+
+La *DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities* ("DANE") è un metodo
+per la pubblicazione di chiavi pubbliche su DNS e per renderle sicure usando
+zone firmate con DNSSEC. Il *Web Key Directory* ("WKD") è un metodo
+alternativo che usa https a scopo di ricerca. Quando si usano DANE o WKD
+per la ricerca di chiavi pubbliche, GnuPG validerĂ  i certificati DNSSEC o TLS
+prima di aggiungere al vostro portachiavi locale le eventuali chiavi trovate.
+
+Kernel.org pubblica la WKD per tutti gli sviluppatori che hanno un account
+kernel.org. Una volta che avete applicato le modifiche al file ``gpg.conf``,
+potrete auto-recuperare le chiavi di Linus Torvalds e Greg Kroah-Hartman
+(se non le avete giĂ )::
+
+ $ gpg --locate-keys torvalds@kernel.org gregkh@kernel.org
+
+Se avete un account kernel.org, al fine di rendere piĂą utile l'uso di WKD
+da parte di altri sviluppatori del kernel, dovreste `aggiungere alla vostra
+chiave lo UID di kernel.org`_.
+
+.. _`aggiungere alla vostra chiave lo UID di kernel.org`: https://korg.wiki.kernel.org/userdoc/mail#adding_a_kernelorg_uid_to_your_pgp_key
+
+Web of Trust (WOT) o Trust on First Use (TOFU)
+----------------------------------------------
+
+PGP incorpora un meccanismo di delega della fiducia conosciuto come
+"Web of Trust". Di base, questo è un tentativo di sostituire la necessità
+di un'autoritĂ  certificativa centralizzata tipica del mondo HTTPS/TLS.
+Invece di avere svariati produttori software che decidono chi dovrebbero
+essere le entitĂ  di certificazione di cui dovreste fidarvi, PGP lascia
+la responsabilitĂ  ad ogni singolo utente.
+
+Sfortunatamente, solo poche persone capiscono come funziona la rete di fiducia.
+Nonostante sia un importante aspetto della specifica OpenPGP, recentemente
+le versioni di GnuPG (2.2 e successive) hanno implementato un meccanisco
+alternativo chiamato "Trust on First Use" (TOFU). Potete pensare a TOFU come
+"ad un approccio all fidicia simile ad SSH". In SSH, la prima volta che vi
+connettete ad un sistema remoto, l'impronta digitale della chiave viene
+registrata e ricordata. Se la chiave dovesse cambiare in futuro, il programma
+SSH vi avviserĂ  e si rifiuterĂ  di connettersi, obbligandovi a prendere una
+decisione circa la fiducia che riponete nella nuova chiave. In modo simile,
+la prima volta che importate la chiave PGP di qualcuno, si assume sia valida.
+Se ad un certo punto GnuPG trova un'altra chiave con la stessa identitĂ ,
+entrambe, la vecchia e la nuova, verranno segnate come invalide e dovrete
+verificare manualmente quale tenere.
+
+Vi raccomandiamo di usare il meccanisco TOFU+PGP (che è la nuova configurazione
+di base di GnuPG v2). Per farlo, aggiungete (o modificate) l'impostazione
+``trust-model`` in ``~/.gnupg/gpg.conf``::
+
+ trust-model tofu+pgp
+
+Come usare i keyserver in sicurezza
+-----------------------------------
+Se ottenete l'errore "No public key" quando cercate di validate il tag di
+qualcuno, allora dovreste cercare quella chiave usando un keyserver. Ă
+importante tenere bene a mente che non c'è alcuna garanzia che la chiave
+che avete recuperato da un keyserver PGP appartenga davvero alla persona
+reale -- è progettato così. Dovreste usare il Web of Trust per assicurarvi
+che la chiave sia valida.
+
+Come mantenere il Web of Trust va oltre gli scopi di questo documento,
+semplicemente perché farlo come si deve richiede sia sforzi che perseveranza
+che tendono ad andare oltre al livello di interesse della maggior parte degli
+esseri umani. Qui di seguito alcuni rapidi suggerimenti per aiutarvi a ridurre
+il rischio di importare chiavi maligne.
+
+Primo, diciamo che avete provato ad eseguire ``git verify-tag`` ma restituisce
+un errore dicendo che la chiave non è stata trovata::
+
+ $ git verify-tag sunxi-fixes-for-4.15-2
+ gpg: Signature made Sun 07 Jan 2018 10:51:55 PM EST
+ gpg: using RSA key DA73759BF8619E484E5A3B47389A54219C0F2430
+ gpg: issuer "wens@...org"
+ gpg: Can't check signature: No public key
+
+Cerchiamo nel keyserver per maggiori informazioni sull'impronta digitale
+della chiave (l'impronta digitale, probabilmente, appartiene ad una
+sottochiave, dunque non possiamo usarla direttamente senza trovare prima
+l'ID della chiave primaria associata ad essa)::
+
+ $ gpg --search DA73759BF8619E484E5A3B47389A54219C0F2430
+ gpg: data source: hkp://keys.gnupg.net
+ (1) Chen-Yu Tsai <wens@...org>
+ 4096 bit RSA key C94035C21B4F2AEB, created: 2017-03-14, expires: 2019-03-15
+ Keys 1-1 of 1 for "DA73759BF8619E484E5A3B47389A54219C0F2430". Enter number(s), N)ext, or Q)uit > q
+
+Localizzate l'ID della chiave primaria, nel nostro esempio
+``C94035C21B4F2AEB``. Ora visualizzate le chiavi di Linus Torvalds
+che avete nel vostro portachiavi::
+
+ $ gpg --list-key torvalds@kernel.org
+ pub rsa2048 2011-09-20 [SC]
+ ABAF11C65A2970B130ABE3C479BE3E4300411886
+ uid [ unknown] Linus Torvalds <torvalds@kernel.org>
+ sub rsa2048 2011-09-20 [E]
+
+Poi, aprite il `PGP pathfinder`_. Nel campo "From", incollate l'impronta
+digitale della chiave di Linus Torvalds che si vede nell'output qui sopra.
+Nel campo "to", incollate il key-id della chiave sconosciuta che avete
+trovato con ``gpg --search``, e poi verificare il risultato:
+
+- `Finding paths to Linus`_
+
+Se trovate un paio di percorsi affidabili è un buon segno circa la validità
+della chiave. Ora, potete aggiungerla al vostro portachiavi dal keyserver::
+
+ $ gpg --recv-key C94035C21B4F2AEB
+
+Questa procedura non è perfetta, e ovviamente state riponendo la vostra
+fiducia nell'amministratore del servizio *PGP Pathfinder* sperando che non
+sia malintenzionato (infatti, questo va contro :ref:`it_devs_not_infra`).
+Tuttavia, se mantenete con cura la vostra rete di fiducia sarĂ  un deciso
+miglioramento rispetto alla cieca fiducia nei keyserver.

==============================================================
-.. warning::
+Regole sul tipo di patch che vengono o non vengono accettate nei sorgenti
+"-stable":
- TODO ancora da tradurre
+ - Ovviamente dev'essere corretta e verificata.
+ - Non dev'essere piĂą grande di 100 righe, incluso il contesto.
+ - Deve correggere una cosa sola.
+ - Deve correggere un baco vero che sta disturbando gli utenti (non cose del
+ tipo "Questo potrebbe essere un problema ...").
+ - Deve correggere un problema di compilazione (ma non per cose giĂ  segnate
+ con CONFIG_BROKEN), un kernel oops, un blocco, una corruzione di dati,
+ un vero problema di sicurezza, o problemi del tipo "oh, questo non va bene".
+ In pratica, qualcosa di critico.
+ - Problemi importanti riportati dagli utenti di una distribuzione potrebbero
+ essere considerati se correggono importanti problemi di prestazioni o di
+ interattività. Dato che questi problemi non sono così ovvi e la loro
+ correzione ha un'alta probabilitĂ  d'introdurre una regressione, dovrebbero
+ essere sottomessi solo dal manutentore della distribuzione includendo un
+ link, se esiste, ad un rapporto su bugzilla, e informazioni aggiuntive
+ sull'impatto che ha sugli utenti.
+ - Non deve correggere problemi relativi a una "teorica sezione critica",
+ a meno che non venga fornita anche una spiegazione su come questa si
+ possa verificare.
+ - Non deve includere alcuna correzione "banale" (correzioni grammaticali,
+ pulizia dagli spazi bianchi, eccetera).
+ - Deve rispettare le regole scritte in
+ :ref:`Documentation/translation/it_IT/process/submitting-patches.rst <it_submittingpatches>`
+ - Questa patch o una equivalente deve esistere giĂ  nei sorgenti principali di
+ Linux
+
+
+Procedura per sottomettere patch per i sorgenti -stable
+-------------------------------------------------------
+
+ - Se la patch contiene modifiche a dei file nelle cartelle net/ o drivers/net,
+ allora seguite le linee guida descritte in
+ :ref:`Documentation/translation/it_IT/networking/netdev-FAQ.rst <it_netdev-FAQ>`;
+ ma solo dopo aver verificato al seguente indirizzo che la patch non sia
+ giĂ  in coda:
+ https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?series=&submitter=&state=*&q=&archive=
+ - Una patch di sicurezza non dovrebbero essere gestite (solamente) dal processo
+ di revisione -stable, ma dovrebbe seguire le procedure descritte in
+ :ref:`Documentation/translations/it_IT/admin-guide/security-bugs.rst <it_securitybugs>`.
+
+
+Per tutte le altre sottomissioni, scegliere una delle seguenti procedure
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. _it_option_1:
+
+Opzione 1
+*********
+
+Per far sì che una patch venga automaticamente inclusa nei sorgenti stabili,
+aggiungete l'etichetta
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
+
+nell'area dedicata alla firme. Una volta che la patch è stata inclusa, verrà
+applicata anche sui sorgenti stabili senza che l'autore o il manutentore
+del sottosistema debba fare qualcosa.
+
+.. _it_option_2:
+
+Opzione 2
+*********
+
+Dopo che la patch è stata inclusa nei sorgenti Linux, inviate una mail a
+stable@vger.kernel.org includendo: il titolo della patch, l'identificativo
+del commit, il perché pensate che debba essere applicata, e in quale versione
+del kernel la vorreste vedere.
+
+.. _it_option_3:
+
+Opzione 3
+*********
+
+Inviata la patch, dopo aver verificato che rispetta le regole descritte in
+precedenza, a stable@vger.kernel.org. Dovete annotare nel changelog
+l'identificativo del commit nei sorgenti principali, così come la versione
+del kernel nel quale vorreste vedere la patch.
+
+L':ref:`it_option_1` è fortemente raccomandata; è il modo più facile e usato.
+L':ref:`it_option_2` e l':ref:`it_option_3` sono piĂą utili quando, al momento
+dell'inclusione dei sorgenti principali, si ritiene che non debbano essere
+incluse anche in quelli stabili (per esempio, perché si crede che si dovrebbero
+fare più verifiche per eventuali regressioni). L':ref:`it_option_3` è
+particolarmente utile se la patch ha bisogno di qualche modifica per essere
+applicata ad un kernel più vecchio (per esempio, perché nel frattempo l'API è
+cambiata).
+
+Notate che per l':ref:`it_option_3`, se la patch è diversa da quella nei
+sorgenti principali (per esempio perché è stato necessario un lavoro di
+adattamento) allora dev'essere ben documentata e giustificata nella descrizione
+della patch.
+
+L'identificativo del commit nei sorgenti principali dev'essere indicato sopra
+al messaggio della patch, così:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ commit <sha1> upstream.
+
+In aggiunta, alcune patch inviate attraverso l':ref:`it_option_1` potrebbero
+dipendere da altre che devo essere incluse. Questa situazione può essere
+indicata nel seguente modo nell'area dedicata alle firme:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3.x: a1f84a3: sched: Check for idle
+ Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3.x: 1b9508f: sched: Rate-limit newidle
+ Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3.x: fd21073: sched: Fix affinity logic
+ Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3.x
+ Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
+
+La sequenza di etichette ha il seguente significato:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ git cherry-pick a1f84a3
+ git cherry-pick 1b9508f
+ git cherry-pick fd21073
+ git cherry-pick <this commit>
+
+Inoltre, alcune patch potrebbero avere dei requisiti circa la versione del
+kernel. Questo può essere indicato usando il seguente formato nell'area
+dedicata alle firme:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.3.x
+
+L'etichetta ha il seguente significato:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ git cherry-pick <this commit>
+
+per ogni sorgente "-stable" che inizia con la versione indicata.
+
+Dopo la sottomissione:
+
+ - Il mittente riceverà un ACK quando la patch è stata accettata e messa in
+ coda, oppure un NAK se la patch è stata rigettata. A seconda degli impegni
+ degli sviluppatori, questa risposta potrebbe richiedere alcuni giorni.
+ - Se accettata, la patch verrĂ  aggiunta alla coda -stable per essere
+ revisionata dal altri sviluppatori e dal principale manutentore del
+ sottosistema.
+
+
+Ciclo di una revisione
+----------------------
+
+ - Quando i manutentori -stable decidono di fare un ciclo di revisione, le
+ patch vengono mandate al comitato per la revisione, ai manutentori soggetti
+ alle modifiche delle patch (a meno che il mittente non sia anche il
+ manutentore di quell'area del kernel) e in CC: alla lista di discussione
+ linux-kernel.
+ - La commissione per la revisione ha 48 ore per dare il proprio ACK o NACK
+ alle patch.
+ - Se una patch viene rigettata da un membro della commissione, o un membro
+ della lista linux-kernel obietta la bontĂ  della patch, sollevando problemi
+ che i manutentori ed i membri non avevano compreso, allora la patch verrĂ 
+ rimossa dalla coda.
+ - Alla fine del ciclo di revisione tutte le patch che hanno ricevuto l'ACK
+ verranno aggiunte per il prossimo rilascio -stable, e successivamente
+ questo nuovo rilascio verrĂ  fatto.
+ - Le patch di sicurezza verranno accettate nei sorgenti -stable direttamente
+ dalla squadra per la sicurezza del kernel, e non passerĂ  per il normale
+ ciclo di revisione. Contattate la suddetta squadra per maggiori dettagli
+ su questa procedura.
+
+Sorgenti
+--------
+
+ - La coda delle patch, sia quelle giĂ  applicate che in fase di revisione,
+ possono essere trovate al seguente indirizzo:
+
+ https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git
+
+ - Il rilascio definitivo, e marchiato, di tutti i kernel stabili può essere
+ trovato in rami distinti per versione al seguente indirizzo:
+
+ https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
+
+
+Comitato per la revisione
+-------------------------
+
+ - Questo comitato è fatto di sviluppatori del kernel che si sono offerti
+ volontari per questo lavoro, e pochi altri che non sono proprio volontari.

To collect a raw text trace, execute following steps.
1. Prepare
+----------
Mount debugfs (it has to be enabled in your kernel configuration), and
load the usbmon module (if built as module). The second step is skipped
-if usbmon is built into the kernel.

Now you can choose to either use the socket '0u' (to capture packets on all
buses), and skip to step #3, or find the bus used by your device with step #2.
This allows to filter away annoying devices that talk continuously.
2. Find which bus connects to the desired device
+------------------------------------------------
Run "cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices", and find the T-line which corresponds
to the device. Usually you do it by looking for the vendor string. If you have
many similar devices, unplug one and compare the two
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices outputs. The T-line will have a bus number.
-Example:
-T: Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
-D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1

"lsusb" and get the bus number from the appropriate line. Example:

redirected to a desirable location. This is preferred, because it is going

+=====================
+Physical Memory Model
+=====================
+
+Physical memory in a system may be addressed in different ways. The
+simplest case is when the physical memory starts at address 0 and
+spans a contiguous range up to the maximal address. It could be,
+however, that this range contains small holes that are not accessible
+for the CPU. Then there could be several contiguous ranges at
+completely distinct addresses. And, don't forget about NUMA, where
+different memory banks are attached to different CPUs.
+
+Linux abstracts this diversity using one of the three memory models:
+FLATMEM, DISCONTIGMEM and SPARSEMEM. Each architecture defines what
+memory models it supports, what the default memory model is and
+whether it is possible to manually override that default.
+
+.. note::
+ At time of this writing, DISCONTIGMEM is considered deprecated,
+ although it is still in use by several architectures.
+
+All the memory models track the status of physical page frames using
+:c:type:`struct page` arranged in one or more arrays.
+
+Regardless of the selected memory model, there exists one-to-one
+mapping between the physical page frame number (PFN) and the
+corresponding `struct page`.
+
+Each memory model defines :c:func:`pfn_to_page` and :c:func:`page_to_pfn`
+helpers that allow the conversion from PFN to `struct page` and vice
+versa.
+
+FLATMEM
+=======
+
+The simplest memory model is FLATMEM. This model is suitable for
+non-NUMA systems with contiguous, or mostly contiguous, physical
+memory.
+
+In the FLATMEM memory model, there is a global `mem_map` array that
+maps the entire physical memory. For most architectures, the holes
+have entries in the `mem_map` array. The `struct page` objects
+corresponding to the holes are never fully initialized.
+
+To allocate the `mem_map` array, architecture specific setup code
+should call :c:func:`free_area_init_node` function or its convenience
+wrapper :c:func:`free_area_init`. Yet, the mappings array is not
+usable until the call to :c:func:`memblock_free_all` that hands all
+the memory to the page allocator.
+
+If an architecture enables `CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL` option,
+it may free parts of the `mem_map` array that do not cover the
+actual physical pages. In such case, the architecture specific
+:c:func:`pfn_valid` implementation should take the holes in the
+`mem_map` into account.
+
+With FLATMEM, the conversion between a PFN and the `struct page` is
+straightforward: `PFN - ARCH_PFN_OFFSET` is an index to the
+`mem_map` array.
+
+The `ARCH_PFN_OFFSET` defines the first page frame number for
+systems with physical memory starting at address different from 0.
+
+DISCONTIGMEM
+============
+
+The DISCONTIGMEM model treats the physical memory as a collection of
+`nodes` similarly to how Linux NUMA support does. For each node Linux
+constructs an independent memory management subsystem represented by
+`struct pglist_data` (or `pg_data_t` for short). Among other
+things, `pg_data_t` holds the `node_mem_map` array that maps
+physical pages belonging to that node. The `node_start_pfn` field of
+`pg_data_t` is the number of the first page frame belonging to that
+node.
+
+The architecture setup code should call :c:func:`free_area_init_node` for
+each node in the system to initialize the `pg_data_t` object and its
+`node_mem_map`.
+
+Every `node_mem_map` behaves exactly as FLATMEM's `mem_map` -
+every physical page frame in a node has a `struct page` entry in the
+`node_mem_map` array. When DISCONTIGMEM is enabled, a portion of the
+`flags` field of the `struct page` encodes the node number of the
+node hosting that page.
+
+The conversion between a PFN and the `struct page` in the
+DISCONTIGMEM model became slightly more complex as it has to determine
+which node hosts the physical page and which `pg_data_t` object
+holds the `struct page`.
+
+Architectures that support DISCONTIGMEM provide :c:func:`pfn_to_nid`
+to convert PFN to the node number. The opposite conversion helper
+:c:func:`page_to_nid` is generic as it uses the node number encoded in
+page->flags.
+
+Once the node number is known, the PFN can be used to index
+appropriate `node_mem_map` array to access the `struct page` and
+the offset of the `struct page` from the `node_mem_map` plus
+`node_start_pfn` is the PFN of that page.
+
+SPARSEMEM
+=========
+
+SPARSEMEM is the most versatile memory model available in Linux and it
+is the only memory model that supports several advanced features such
+as hot-plug and hot-remove of the physical memory, alternative memory
+maps for non-volatile memory devices and deferred initialization of
+the memory map for larger systems.
+
+The SPARSEMEM model presents the physical memory as a collection of
+sections. A section is represented with :c:type:`struct mem_section`
+that contains `section_mem_map` that is, logically, a pointer to an
+array of struct pages. However, it is stored with some other magic
+that aids the sections management. The section size and maximal number
+of section is specified using `SECTION_SIZE_BITS` and
+`MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS` constants defined by each architecture that
+supports SPARSEMEM. While `MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS` is an actual width of a
+physical address that an architecture supports, the
+`SECTION_SIZE_BITS` is an arbitrary value.
+
+The maximal number of sections is denoted `NR_MEM_SECTIONS` and
+defined as
+
+.. math::
+
+ NR\_MEM\_SECTIONS = 2 ^ {(MAX\_PHYSMEM\_BITS - SECTION\_SIZE\_BITS)}
+
+The `mem_section` objects are arranged in a two-dimensional array
+called `mem_sections`. The size and placement of this array depend
+on `CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME` and the maximal possible number of
+sections:
+
+* When `CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME` is disabled, the `mem_sections`
+ array is static and has `NR_MEM_SECTIONS` rows. Each row holds a
+ single `mem_section` object.
+* When `CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME` is enabled, the `mem_sections`
+ array is dynamically allocated. Each row contains PAGE_SIZE worth of
+ `mem_section` objects and the number of rows is calculated to fit
+ all the memory sections.
+
+The architecture setup code should call :c:func:`memory_present` for
+each active memory range or use :c:func:`memblocks_present` or
+:c:func:`sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions` wrappers to
+initialize the memory sections. Next, the actual memory maps should be
+set up using :c:func:`sparse_init`.
+
+With SPARSEMEM there are two possible ways to convert a PFN to the
+corresponding `struct page` - a "classic sparse" and "sparse
+vmemmap". The selection is made at build time and it is determined by
+the value of `CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP`.
+
+The classic sparse encodes the section number of a page in page->flags
+and uses high bits of a PFN to access the section that maps that page
+frame. Inside a section, the PFN is the index to the array of pages.
+
+The sparse vmemmap uses a virtually mapped memory map to optimize
+pfn_to_page and page_to_pfn operations. There is a global `struct
+page *vmemmap` pointer that points to a virtually contiguous array of
+`struct page` objects. A PFN is an index to that array and the the
+offset of the `struct page` from `vmemmap` is the PFN of that
+page.
+
+To use vmemmap, an architecture has to reserve a range of virtual
+addresses that will map the physical pages containing the memory
+map and make sure that `vmemmap` points to that range. In addition,
+the architecture should implement :c:func:`vmemmap_populate` method
+that will allocate the physical memory and create page tables for the
+virtual memory map. If an architecture does not have any special
+requirements for the vmemmap mappings, it can use default
+:c:func:`vmemmap_populate_basepages` provided by the generic memory
+management.
+
+The virtually mapped memory map allows storing `struct page` objects
+for persistent memory devices in pre-allocated storage on those
+devices. This storage is represented with :c:type:`struct vmem_altmap`
+that is eventually passed to vmemmap_populate() through a long chain
+of function calls. The vmemmap_populate() implementation may use the
+`vmem_altmap` along with :c:func:`altmap_alloc_block_buf` helper to
+allocate memory map on the persistent memory device.
