(The latter files seem to be explicitly _designed_ to get conflicts when
different subsystems work with them - that have an absolutely horrid
lack of subsystem separation!)

-Introduction to NAPI
-====================
-
-NAPI is a proven (www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/usenix-paper.tgz) technique
-to improve network performance on Linux. For more details please
-read that paper.
-NAPI provides a "inherent mitigation" which is bound by system capacity
-as can be seen from the following data collected by Robert on Gigabit 
-ethernet (e1000):
-
- Psize    Ipps       Tput     Rxint     Txint    Done     Ndone
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
-   60    890000     409362        17     27622        7     6823
-  128    758150     464364        21      9301       10     7738
-  256    445632     774646        42     15507       21    12906
-  512    232666     994445    241292     19147   241192     1062

-
-Legend:
-"Ipps" stands for input packets per second. 
-"Tput" == packets out of total 1M that made it out.
-"txint" == transmit completion interrupts seen
-"Done" == The number of times that the poll() managed to pull all
-packets out of the rx ring. Note from this that the lower the
-load the more we could clean up the rxring
-"Ndone" == is the converse of "Done". Note again, that the higher
-the load the more times we couldn't clean up the rxring.
-
-Observe that:
-when the NIC receives 890Kpackets/sec only 17 rx interrupts are generated. 
-The system cant handle the processing at 1 interrupt/packet at that load level. 
-At lower rates on the other hand, rx interrupts go up and therefore the
-interrupt/packet ratio goes up (as observable from that table). So there is
-possibility that under low enough input, you get one poll call for each
-input packet caused by a single interrupt each time. And if the system 
-cant handle interrupt per packet ratio of 1, then it will just have to 
-chug along ....
-
-
-0) Prerequisites:
-==================
-A driver MAY continue using the old 2.4 technique for interfacing
-to the network stack and not benefit from the NAPI changes.
-NAPI additions to the kernel do not break backward compatibility.
-NAPI, however, requires the following features to be available:
-
-A) DMA ring or enough RAM to store packets in software devices.
-
-B) Ability to turn off interrupts or maybe events that send packets up 
-the stack.
-
-NAPI processes packet events in what is known as dev->poll() method.
-Typically, only packet receive events are processed in dev->poll(). 
-The rest of the events MAY be processed by the regular interrupt handler 
-to reduce processing latency (justified also because there are not that 
-many of them).
-Note, however, NAPI does not enforce that dev->poll() only processes 
-receive events. 
-Tests with the tulip driver indicated slightly increased latency if
-all of the interrupt handler is moved to dev->poll(). Also MII handling
-gets a little trickier.
-The example used in this document is to move the receive processing only
-to dev->poll(); this is shown with the patch for the tulip driver.
-For an example of code that moves all the interrupt driver to 
-dev->poll() look at the ported e1000 code.
-
-There are caveats that might force you to go with moving everything to 
-dev->poll(). Different NICs work differently depending on their status/event 
-acknowledgement setup. 
-There are two types of event register ACK mechanisms.
-        I)  what is known as Clear-on-read (COR).
-        when you read the status/event register, it clears everything!
-        The natsemi and sunbmac NICs are known to do this.
-        In this case your only choice is to move all to dev->poll()
-
-        II) Clear-on-write (COW)
-         i) you clear the status by writing a 1 in the bit-location you want.
-                These are the majority of the NICs and work the best with NAPI.
-                Put only receive events in dev->poll(); leave the rest in
-                the old interrupt handler.
-         ii) whatever you write in the status register clears every thing ;->
-                Cant seem to find any supported by Linux which do this. If
-                someone knows such a chip email us please.
-                Move all to dev->poll()
-
-C) Ability to detect new work correctly.
-NAPI works by shutting down event interrupts when there's work and
-turning them on when there's none. 
-New packets might show up in the small window while interrupts were being 
-re-enabled (refer to appendix 2).  A packet might sneak in during the period 
-we are enabling interrupts. We only get to know about such a packet when the 
-next new packet arrives and generates an interrupt. 
-Essentially, there is a small window of opportunity for a race condition
-which for clarity we'll refer to as the "rotting packet".
-
-This is a very important topic and appendix 2 is dedicated for more 
-discussion.
-
-Locking rules and environmental guarantees
-==========================================
-
--Guarantee: Only one CPU at any time can call dev->poll(); this is because
-only one CPU can pick the initial interrupt and hence the initial
-netif_rx_schedule(dev);
-- The core layer invokes devices to send packets in a round robin format.
-This implies receive is totally lockless because of the guarantee that only 
-one CPU is executing it.
--  contention can only be the result of some other CPU accessing the rx
-ring. This happens only in close() and suspend() (when these methods
-try to clean the rx ring); 
-****guarantee: driver authors need not worry about this; synchronization 
-is taken care for them by the top net layer.
--local interrupts are enabled (if you dont move all to dev->poll()). For 
-example link/MII and txcomplete continue functioning just same old way. 
-This improves the latency of processing these events. It is also assumed that 
-the receive interrupt is the largest cause of noise. Note this might not 
-always be true. 
-[according to Manfred Spraul, the winbond insists on sending one 
-txmitcomplete interrupt for each packet (although this can be mitigated)].
-For these broken drivers, move all to dev->poll().
-
-For the rest of this text, we'll assume that dev->poll() only
-processes receive events.
-
-new methods introduce by NAPI
-=============================
-
-a) netif_rx_schedule(dev)
-Called by an IRQ handler to schedule a poll for device
-
-b) netif_rx_schedule_prep(dev)
-puts the device in a state which allows for it to be added to the
-CPU polling list if it is up and running. You can look at this as
-the first half of  netif_rx_schedule(dev) above; the second half
-being c) below.
-
-c) __netif_rx_schedule(dev)
-Add device to the poll list for this CPU; assuming that _prep above
-has already been called and returned 1.
-
-d) netif_rx_reschedule(dev, undo)
-Called to reschedule polling for device specifically for some
-deficient hardware. Read Appendix 2 for more details.
-
-e) netif_rx_complete(dev)
-
-Remove interface from the CPU poll list: it must be in the poll list
-on current cpu. This primitive is called by dev->poll(), when
-it completes its work. The device cannot be out of poll list at this
-call, if it is then clearly it is a BUG(). You'll know ;->
-
-All of the above methods are used below, so keep reading for clarity.
-
-Device driver changes to be made when porting NAPI
-==================================================
-
-Below we describe what kind of changes are required for NAPI to work.
-
-1) introduction of dev->poll() method 
-=====================================
-
-This is the method that is invoked by the network core when it requests
-for new packets from the driver. A driver is allowed to send upto
-dev->quota packets by the current CPU before yielding to the network
-subsystem (so other devices can also get opportunity to send to the stack).
-
-dev->poll() prototype looks as follows:
-int my_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
-
-budget is the remaining number of packets the network subsystem on the
-current CPU can send up the stack before yielding to other system tasks.
-*Each driver is responsible for decrementing budget by the total number of
-packets sent.
-        Total number of packets cannot exceed dev->quota.
-
-dev->poll() method is invoked by the top layer, the driver just sends if it 
-can to the stack the packet quantity requested.
-
-more on dev->poll() below after the interrupt changes are explained.
-
-2) registering dev->poll() method
-===================================
-
-dev->poll should be set in the dev->probe() method. 
-e.g:
-dev->open = my_open;
-.
-.
-/* two new additions */
-/* first register my poll method */
-dev->poll = my_poll;
-/* next register my weight/quanta; can be overridden in /proc */
-dev->weight = 16;
-.
-.
-dev->stop = my_close;
-
-
-
-3) scheduling dev->poll()
-=============================
-This involves modifying the interrupt handler and the code
-path which takes the packet off the NIC and sends them to the 
-stack.
-
-it's important at this point to introduce the classical D Becker 
-interrupt processor:
-
-------------------
-static irqreturn_t
-netdevice_interrupt(int irq, void *dev_id, struct pt_regs *regs)
-{
-
-        struct net_device *dev = (struct net_device *)dev_instance;
-        struct my_private *tp = (struct my_private *)dev->priv;
-
-        int work_count = my_work_count;
-        status = read_interrupt_status_reg();
-        if (status == 0)
-                return IRQ_NONE; /* Shared IRQ: not us */
-        if (status == 0xffff)
-                return IRQ_HANDLED;      /* Hot unplug */
-        if (status & error)
-                do_some_error_handling()
-        
-        do {
-                acknowledge_ints_ASAP();
-
-                if (status & link_interrupt) {
-                        spin_lock(&tp->link_lock);
-                        do_some_link_stat_stuff();
-                        spin_lock(&tp->link_lock);
-                }
-                
-                if (status & rx_interrupt) {
-                        receive_packets(dev);
-                }
-
-                if (status & rx_nobufs) {
-                        make_rx_buffs_avail();
-                }
-                        
-                if (status & tx_related) {
-                        spin_lock(&tp->lock);
-                        tx_ring_free(dev);
-                        if (tx_died)
-                                restart_tx();
-                        spin_unlock(&tp->lock);
-                }
-
-                status = read_interrupt_status_reg();
-
-        } while (!(status & error) || more_work_to_be_done);
-        return IRQ_HANDLED;
-}

-We now change this to what is shown below to NAPI-enable it:

-}
-
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
-We note several things from above:
-
-I) Any interrupt source which is caused by arriving packets is now
-turned off when it occurs. Depending on the hardware, there could be
-several reasons that arriving packets would cause interrupts; these are the
-interrupt sources we wish to avoid. The two common ones are a) a packet 
-arriving (rxint) b) a packet arriving and finding no DMA buffers available
-(rxnobuff) .
-This means also acknowledge_ints_ASAP() will not clear the status
-register for those two items above; clearing is done in the place where 
-proper work is done within NAPI; at the poll() and refill_rx_ring() 
-discussed further below.
-netif_rx_schedule_prep() returns 1 if device is in running state and
-gets successfully added to the core poll list. If we get a zero value
-we can _almost_ assume are already added to the list (instead of not running. 
-Logic based on the fact that you shouldn't get interrupt if not running)
-We rectify this by disabling rx and rxnobuf interrupts.
-
-II) that receive_packets(dev) and make_rx_buffs_avail() may have disappeared.
-These functionalities are still around actually......
-
-infact, receive_packets(dev) is very close to my_poll() and 
-make_rx_buffs_avail() is invoked from my_poll()
-
-4) converting receive_packets() to dev->poll()
-===============================================
-
-We need to convert the classical D Becker receive_packets(dev) to my_poll()
-
-First the typical receive_packets() below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-/* this is called by interrupt handler */
-static void receive_packets (struct net_device *dev)
-{
-
-        struct my_private *tp = (struct my_private *)dev->priv;
-        rx_ring = tp->rx_ring;
-        cur_rx = tp->cur_rx;
-        int entry = cur_rx % RX_RING_SIZE;
-        int received = 0;
-        int rx_work_limit = tp->dirty_rx + RX_RING_SIZE - tp->cur_rx;
-
-        while (rx_ring_not_empty) {
-                u32 rx_status;
-                unsigned int rx_size;
-                unsigned int pkt_size;
-                struct sk_buff *skb;
-                /* read size+status of next frame from DMA ring buffer */
-                /* the number 16 and 4 are just examples */
-                rx_status = le32_to_cpu (*(u32 *) (rx_ring + ring_offset));
-                rx_size = rx_status >> 16;
-                pkt_size = rx_size - 4;
-
-                /* process errors */
-                if ((rx_size > (MAX_ETH_FRAME_SIZE+4)) ||
-                    (!(rx_status & RxStatusOK))) {

-5) dev->close() and dev->suspend() issues
-==========================================
-The driver writer needn't worry about this; the top net layer takes
-care of it.
-
-6) Adding new Stats to /proc 
-=============================
-In order to debug some of the new features, we introduce new stats
-that need to be collected.
-TODO: Fill this later.
-
-APPENDIX 1: discussion on using ethernet HW FC
-==============================================
-Most chips with FC only send a pause packet when they run out of Rx buffers.
-Since packets are pulled off the DMA ring by a softirq in NAPI,
-if the system is slow in grabbing them and we have a high input
-rate (faster than the system's capacity to remove packets), then theoretically
-there will only be one rx interrupt for all packets during a given packetstorm.
-Under low load, we might have a single interrupt per packet.
-FC should be programmed to apply in the case when the system cant pull out
-packets fast enough i.e send a pause only when you run out of rx buffers.
-Note FC in itself is a good solution but we have found it to not be
-much of a commodity feature (both in NICs and switches) and hence falls
-under the same category as using NIC based mitigation. Also, experiments
-indicate that it's much harder to resolve the resource allocation
-issue (aka lazy receiving that NAPI offers) and hence quantify its usefulness
-proved harder. In any case, FC works even better with NAPI but is not
-necessary.
-
-
-APPENDIX 2: the "rotting packet" race-window avoidance scheme 
-=============================================================
-
-There are two types of associations seen here
-
-1) status/int which honors level triggered IRQ
-
-If a status bit for receive or rxnobuff is set and the corresponding 
-interrupt-enable bit is not on, then no interrupts will be generated. However, 
-as soon as the "interrupt-enable" bit is unmasked, an immediate interrupt is 
-generated.  [assuming the status bit was not turned off].
-Generally the concept of level triggered IRQs in association with a status and
-interrupt-enable CSR register set is used to avoid the race.
-
-If we take the example of the tulip:
-"pending work" is indicated by the status bit(CSR5 in tulip).
-the corresponding interrupt bit (CSR7 in tulip) might be turned off (but
-the CSR5 will continue to be turned on with new packet arrivals even if
-we clear it the first time)
-Very important is the fact that if we turn on the interrupt bit on when
-status is set that an immediate irq is triggered.
- 
-If we cleared the rx ring and proclaimed there was "no more work
-to be done" and then went on to do a few other things;  then when we enable
-interrupts, there is a possibility that a new packet might sneak in during
-this phase. It helps to look at the pseudo code for the tulip poll
-routine:
-
---------------------------
-        do {
-                ACK;
-                while (ring_is_not_empty()) {
-                        work-work-work
-                        if quota is exceeded: exit, no touching irq status/mask
-                }
-                /* No packets, but new can arrive while we are doing this*/
-                CSR5 := read
-                if (CSR5 is not set) {
-                        /* If something arrives in this narrow window here,
-                        *  where the comments are ;-> irq will be generated */
-                        unmask irqs;
-                        exit poll;
-                }
-        } while (rx_status_is_set);
-------------------------
-
-CSR5 bit of interest is only the rx status. 
-If you look at the last if statement: 
-you just finished grabbing all the packets from the rx ring .. you check if
-status bit says there are more packets just in ... it says none; you then
-enable rx interrupts again; if a new packet just came in during this check,
-we are counting that CSR5 will be set in that small window of opportunity
-and that by re-enabling interrupts, we would actually trigger an interrupt
-to register the new packet for processing.
-
-[The above description nay be very verbose, if you have better wording 
-that will make this more understandable, please suggest it.]
-
-2) non-capable hardware
-
-These do not generally respect level triggered IRQs. Normally,
-irqs may be lost while being masked and the only way to leave poll is to do
-a double check for new input after netif_rx_complete() is invoked
-and re-enable polling (after seeing this new input).
-
-Sample code:
-
----------
-        .
-        .
-restart_poll:
-        while (ring_is_not_empty()) {
-                work-work-work
-                if quota is exceeded: exit, not touching irq status/mask
-        }
-        .
-        .
-        .
-        enable_rx_interrupts()
-        netif_rx_complete(dev);
-        if (ring_has_new_packet() && netif_rx_reschedule(dev, received)) {
-                disable_rx_and_rxnobufs()
-                goto restart_poll
-        } while (rx_status_is_set);
----------
-                
-Basically netif_rx_complete() removes us from the poll list, but because a
-new packet which will never be caught due to the possibility of a race
-might come in, we attempt to re-add ourselves to the poll list. 
-
-
-
-
-APPENDIX 3: Scheduling issues.
-==============================
-As seen NAPI moves processing to softirq level. Linux uses the ksoftirqd as the 
-general solution to schedule softirq's to run before next interrupt and by putting 
-them under scheduler control. Also this prevents consecutive softirq's from 
-monopolize the CPU. This also have the effect that the priority of ksoftirq needs 
-to be considered when running very CPU-intensive applications and networking to
-get the proper balance of softirq/user balance. Increasing ksoftirq priority to 0 
-(eventually more) is reported cure problems with low network performance at high 
-CPU load.
-
-Most used processes in a GIGE router:
-USER       PID %CPU %MEM  SIZE   RSS TTY STAT START   TIME COMMAND
-root         3  0.2  0.0     0     0  ?  RWN Aug 15 602:00 (ksoftirqd_CPU0)

-    The Digi International RightSwitch SE-X (dgrs) Device Driver
-
-This is a Linux driver for the Digi International RightSwitch SE-X
-EISA and PCI boards.  These are 4 (EISA) or 6 (PCI) port Ethernet
-switches and a NIC combined into a single board.  This driver can
-be compiled into the kernel statically or as a loadable module.
-
-There is also a companion management tool, called "xrightswitch".
-The management tool lets you watch the performance graphically,
-as well as set the SNMP agent IP and IPX addresses, IEEE Spanning
-Tree, and Aging time.  These can also be set from the command line
-when the driver is loaded.  The driver command line options are:
-
-        debug=NNN               Debug printing level
-        dma=0/1                 Disable/Enable DMA on PCI card
-        spantree=0/1            Disable/Enable IEEE spanning tree
-        hashexpire=NNN          Change address aging time (default 300 seconds)
-        ipaddr=A,B,C,D          Set SNMP agent IP address i.e. 199,86,8,221
-        iptrap=A,B,C,D          Set SNMP agent IP trap address i.e. 199,86,8,221
-        ipxnet=NNN              Set SNMP agent IPX network number
-        nicmode=0/1             Disable/Enable multiple NIC mode
-
-There is also a tool for setting up input and output packet filters
-on each port, called "dgrsfilt".
-
-Both the management tool and the filtering tool are available
-separately from the following FTP site:
-
-        ftp://ftp.dgii.com/drivers/rightswitch/linux/
-
-When nicmode=1, the board and driver operate as 4 or 6 individual
-NIC ports (eth0...eth5) instead of as a switch.  All switching
-functions are disabled.  In the future, the board firmware may include
-a routing cache when in this mode.

+It also supports logging to multiple remote agents by specifying
+parameters for the multiple agents separated by semicolons and the
+complete string enclosed in "quotes", thusly:
+
+ modprobe netconsole netconsole="@/,@10.0.0.2/;@/eth1,6892@10.0.0.3/"
+
 Built-in netconsole starts immediately after the TCP stack is
 initialized and attempts to bring up the supplied dev at the supplied
 address.
 
 The remote host can run either 'netcat -u -l -p <port>' or syslogd.
 
+Dynamic reconfiguration:
+========================
+
+Dynamic reconfigurability is a useful addition to netconsole that enables
+remote logging targets to be dynamically added, removed, or have their
+parameters reconfigured at runtime from a configfs-based userspace interface.
+[ Note that the parameters of netconsole targets that were specified/created
+from the boot/module option are not exposed via this interface, and hence
+cannot be modified dynamically. ]
+
+To include this feature, select CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC when building the
+netconsole module (or kernel, if netconsole is built-in).
+
+Some examples follow (where configfs is mounted at the /sys/kernel/config
+mountpoint).
+
+To add a remote logging target (target names can be arbitrary):
+
+ cd /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/
+ mkdir target1
+
+Note that newly created targets have default parameter values (as mentioned
+above) and are disabled by default -- they must first be enabled by writing
+"1" to the "enabled" attribute (usually after setting parameters accordingly)
+as described below.
+
+To remove a target:
+
+ rmdir /sys/kernel/config/netconsole/othertarget/
+
+The interface exposes these parameters of a netconsole target to userspace:
+
+        enabled         Is this target currently enabled?       (read-write)
+        dev_name        Local network interface name            (read-write)
+        local_port      Source UDP port to use                  (read-write)
+        remote_port     Remote agent's UDP port                 (read-write)
+        local_ip        Source IP address to use                (read-write)
+        remote_ip       Remote agent's IP address               (read-write)
+        local_mac       Local interface's MAC address           (read-only)
+        remote_mac      Remote agent's MAC address              (read-write)
+
+The "enabled" attribute is also used to control whether the parameters of
+a target can be updated or not -- you can modify the parameters of only
+disabled targets (i.e. if "enabled" is 0).
+
+To update a target's parameters:
+
+ cat enabled                            # check if enabled is 1
+ echo 0 > enabled                       # disable the target (if required)
+ echo eth2 > dev_name                   # set local interface
+ echo 10.0.0.4 > remote_ip              # update some parameter
+ echo cb:a9:87:65:43:21 > remote_mac    # update more parameters
+ echo 1 > enabled                       # enable target again
+
+You can also update the local interface dynamically. This is especially
+useful if you want to use interfaces that have newly come up (and may not
+have existed when netconsole was loaded / initialized).
+
+Miscellaneous notes:
+====================
+
 WARNING: the default target ethernet setting uses the broadcast
 ethernet address to send packets, which can cause increased load on
 other systems on the same ethernet segment.
 
+TIP: some LAN switches may be configured to suppress ethernet broadcasts
+so it is advised to explicitly specify the remote agents' MAC addresses
+from the config parameters passed to netconsole.
+
+TIP: to find out the MAC address of, say, 10.0.0.2, you may try using:
+
+ ping -c 1 10.0.0.2 ; /sbin/arp -n | grep 10.0.0.2
+
+TIP: in case the remote logging agent is on a separate LAN subnet than
+the sender, it is suggested to try specifying the MAC address of the
+default gateway (you may use /sbin/route -n to find it out) as the
+remote MAC address instead.
+
 NOTE: the network device (eth1 in the above case) can run any kind
 of other network traffic, netconsole is not intrusive. Netconsole
 might cause slight delays in other traffic if the volume of kernel
 messages is high, but should have no other impact.
 
+NOTE: if you find that the remote logging agent is not receiving or
+printing all messages from the sender, it is likely that you have set
+the "console_loglevel" parameter (on the sender) to only send high
+priority messages to the console. You can change this at runtime using:
+
+ dmesg -n 8
+
+or by specifying "debug" on the kernel command line at boot, to send
+all kernel messages to the console. A specific value for this parameter
+can also be set using the "loglevel" kernel boot option. See the
+dmesg(8) man page and Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt for details.
+
 Netconsole was designed to be as instantaneous as possible, to
 enable the logging of even the most critical kernel bugs. It works
 from IRQ contexts as well, and does not enable interrupts while

+rfkill - RF switch subsystem support
+====================================
+
+1 Implementation details
+2 Driver support
+3 Userspace support
+
+===============================================================================
+1: Implementation details
+
+The rfkill switch subsystem offers support for keys often found on laptops
+to enable wireless devices like WiFi and Bluetooth.
+
+This is done by providing the user 3 possibilities:
+ 1 - The rfkill system handles all events; userspace is not aware of events.
+ 2 - The rfkill system handles all events; userspace is informed about the events.
+ 3 - The rfkill system does not handle events; userspace handles all events.
+
+The buttons to enable and disable the wireless radios are important in
+situations where the user is for example using his laptop on a location where
+wireless radios _must_ be disabled (e.g. airplanes).
+Because of this requirement, userspace support for the keys should not be
+made mandatory. Because userspace might want to perform some additional smarter
+tasks when the key is pressed, rfkill still provides userspace the possibility
+to take over the task to handle the key events.
+
+The system inside the kernel has been split into 2 separate sections:
+        1 - RFKILL
+        2 - RFKILL_INPUT
+
+The first option enables rfkill support and will make sure userspace will
+be notified of any events through the input device. It also creates several
+sysfs entries which can be used by userspace. See section "Userspace support".
+
+The second option provides an rfkill input handler. This handler will
+listen to all rfkill key events and will toggle the radio accordingly.
+With this option enabled userspace could either do nothing or simply
+perform monitoring tasks.
+
+====================================
+2: Driver support
+
+To build a driver with rfkill subsystem support, the driver should
+depend on the Kconfig symbol RFKILL; it should _not_ depend on
+RKFILL_INPUT.
+
+Unless key events trigger an interrupt to which the driver listens, polling
+will be required to determine the key state changes. For this the input
+layer providers the input-polldev handler.
+
+A driver should implement a few steps to correctly make use of the
+rfkill subsystem. First for non-polling drivers:
+
+        - rfkill_allocate()
+        - input_allocate_device()
+        - rfkill_register()
+        - input_register_device()
+
+For polling drivers:
+
+        - rfkill_allocate()
+        - input_allocate_polled_device()
+        - rfkill_register()
+        - input_register_polled_device()
+
+When a key event has been detected, the correct event should be
+sent over the input device which has been registered by the driver.
+
+====================================
+3: Userspace support
+
+For each key an input device will be created which will send out the correct
+key event when the rfkill key has been pressed.
+
+The following sysfs entries will be created:
+
+        name: Name assigned by driver to this key (interface or driver name).
+        type: Name of the key type ("wlan", "bluetooth", etc).
+        state: Current state of the key. 1: On, 0: Off.
+        claim: 1: Userspace handles events, 0: Kernel handles events
+
+Both the "state" and "claim" entries are also writable. For the "state" entry
+this means that when 1 or 0 is written all radios, not yet in the requested
+state, will be will be toggled accordingly.
+For the "claim" entry writing 1 to it means that the kernel no longer handles
+key events even though RFKILL_INPUT input was enabled. When "claim" has been
+set to 0, userspace should make sure that it listens for the input events or
+check the sysfs "state" entry regularly to correctly perform the required
+tasks when the rkfill key is pressed.
