1What: /sys/firmware/efi/vars
2Date: April 2004
3Contact: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com>
4Description:
5 This directory exposes interfaces for interactive with
6 EFI variables. For more information on EFI variables,
7 see 'Variable Services' in the UEFI specification
8 (section 7.2 in specification version 2.3 Errata D).
9
10 In summary, EFI variables are named, and are classified
11 into separate namespaces through the use of a vendor
12 GUID. They also have an arbitrary binary value
13 associated with them.
14
15 The efivars module enumerates these variables and
16 creates a separate directory for each one found. Each
17 directory has a name of the form "<key>-<vendor guid>"
18 and contains the following files:
19
20 attributes: A read-only text file enumerating the
21 EFI variable flags. Potential values
22 include:
23
24 EFI_VARIABLE_NON_VOLATILE
25 EFI_VARIABLE_BOOTSERVICE_ACCESS
26 EFI_VARIABLE_RUNTIME_ACCESS
27 EFI_VARIABLE_HARDWARE_ERROR_RECORD
28 EFI_VARIABLE_AUTHENTICATED_WRITE_ACCESS
29
30 See the EFI documentation for an
31 explanation of each of these variables.
32
33 data: A read-only binary file that can be read
34 to attain the value of the EFI variable
35
36 guid: The vendor GUID of the variable. This
37 should always match the GUID in the
38 variable's name.
39
40 raw_var: A binary file that can be read to obtain
41 a structure that contains everything
42 there is to know about the variable.
43 For structure definition see "struct
44 efi_variable" in the kernel sources.
45
46 This file can also be written to in
47 order to update the value of a variable.
48 For this to work however, all fields of
49 the "struct efi_variable" passed must
50 match byte for byte with the structure
51 read out of the file, save for the value
52 portion.
53
54 **Note** the efi_variable structure
55 read/written with this file contains a
56 'long' type that may change widths
57 depending on your underlying
58 architecture.
59
60 size: As ASCII representation of the size of
61 the variable's value.
62
63
64 In addition, two other magic binary files are provided
65 in the top-level directory and are used for adding and
66 removing variables:
67
68 new_var: Takes a "struct efi_variable" and
69 instructs the EFI firmware to create a
70 new variable.
71
72 del_var: Takes a "struct efi_variable" and
73 instructs the EFI firmware to remove any
74 variable that has a matching vendor GUID
75 and variable key name.

2Date: January 2011
3Kernel Version: 2.6.38
4Contact: tony.luck@intel.com
5Description: Generic interface to platform dependent persistent storage.
6
7 Platforms that provide a mechanism to preserve some data
8 across system reboots can register with this driver to
9 provide a generic interface to show records captured in
10 the dying moments. In the case of a panic the last part
11 of the console log is captured, but other interesting
12 data can also be saved.
13
14 # mount -t pstore - /dev/pstore
15
16 $ ls -l /dev/pstore
17 total 0
18 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 7896 Nov 30 15:38 dmesg-erst-1
19
20 Different users of this interface will result in different
21 filename prefixes. Currently two are defined:
22
23 "dmesg" - saved console log
24 "mce" - architecture dependent data from fatal h/w error
25
26 Once the information in a file has been read, removing
27 the file will signal to the underlying persistent storage
28 device that it can reclaim the space for later re-use.
29
30 $ rm /dev/pstore/dmesg-erst-1
31
32 The expectation is that all files in /dev/pstore
33 will be saved elsewhere and erased from persistent store
34 soon after boot to free up space ready for the next
35 catastrophe.

1What: /sys/firmware/dmi/
2Date: February 2011
3Contact: Mike Waychison <mikew@google.com>
4Description:
5 Many machines' firmware (x86 and ia64) export DMI /
6 SMBIOS tables to the operating system. Getting at this
7 information is often valuable to userland, especially in
8 cases where there are OEM extensions used.
9
10 The kernel itself does not rely on the majority of the
11 information in these tables being correct. It equally
12 cannot ensure that the data as exported to userland is
13 without error either.
14
15 DMI is structured as a large table of entries, where
16 each entry has a common header indicating the type and
17 length of the entry, as well as 'handle' that is
18 supposed to be unique amongst all entries.
19
20 Some entries are required by the specification, but many
21 others are optional. In general though, users should
22 never expect to find a specific entry type on their
23 system unless they know for certain what their firmware
24 is doing. Machine to machine will vary.
25
26 Multiple entries of the same type are allowed. In order
27 to handle these duplicate entry types, each entry is
28 assigned by the operating system an 'instance', which is
29 derived from an entry type's ordinal position. That is
30 to say, if there are 'N' multiple entries with the same type
31 'T' in the DMI tables (adjacent or spread apart, it
32 doesn't matter), they will be represented in sysfs as
33 entries "T-0" through "T-(N-1)":
34
35 Example entry directories:
36
37 /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-0
38 /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-1
39 /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-2
40 /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-3
41 ...
42
43 Instance numbers are used in lieu of the firmware
44 assigned entry handles as the kernel itself makes no
45 guarantees that handles as exported are unique, and
46 there are likely firmware images that get this wrong in
47 the wild.
48
49 Each DMI entry in sysfs has the common header values
50 exported as attributes:
51
52 handle : The 16bit 'handle' that is assigned to this
53 entry by the firmware. This handle may be
54 referred to by other entries.
55 length : The length of the entry, as presented in the
56 entry itself. Note that this is _not the
57 total count of bytes associated with the
58 entry_. This value represents the length of
59 the "formatted" portion of the entry. This
60 "formatted" region is sometimes followed by
61 the "unformatted" region composed of nul
62 terminated strings, with termination signalled
63 by a two nul characters in series.
64 raw : The raw bytes of the entry. This includes the
65 "formatted" portion of the entry, the
66 "unformatted" strings portion of the entry,
67 and the two terminating nul characters.
68 type : The type of the entry. This value is the same
69 as found in the directory name. It indicates
70 how the rest of the entry should be
71 interpreted.
72 instance: The instance ordinal of the entry for the
73 given type. This value is the same as found
74 in the parent directory name.
75 position: The position of the entry within the entirety
76 of the entirety.
77
78 === Entry Specialization ===
79
80 Some entry types may have other information available in
81 sysfs.
82
83 --- Type 15 - System Event Log ---
84
85 This entry allows the firmware to export a log of
86 events the system has taken. This information is
87 typically backed by nvram, but the implementation
88 details are abstracted by this table. This entries data
89 is exported in the directory:
90
91 /sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log
92
93 and has the following attributes (documented in the
94 SMBIOS / DMI specification under "System Event Log (Type 15)":
95
96 area_length
97 header_start_offset
98 data_start_offset
99 access_method
100 status
101 change_token
102 access_method_address
103 header_format
104 per_log_type_descriptor_length
105 type_descriptors_supported_count
106
107 As well, the kernel exports the binary attribute:
108
109 raw_event_log : The raw binary bits of the event log
110 as described by the DMI entry.

41 use of the shared UART transport, it registers to the shared
42 transport driver, which will signal the user-space for opening,
43 configuring baud and install line discipline via this sysfs
44 entry. This entry would be polled upon by the user-space
45 daemon managing the UART, and is notified about the change
46 by the sysfs_notify. The value would be '1' when UART needs
47 to be opened/ldisc installed, and would be '0' when UART
48 is no more required and needs to be closed.

852However, given that there are no fewer than four families of RCU APIs
853in the Linux kernel, how do you choose which one to use? The following
854list can be helpful:
855
856a. Will readers need to block? If so, you need SRCU.
857
858b. What about the -rt patchset? If readers would need to block
859 in an non-rt kernel, you need SRCU. If readers would block
860 in a -rt kernel, but not in a non-rt kernel, SRCU is not
861 necessary.
862
863c. Do you need to treat NMI handlers, hardirq handlers,
864 and code segments with preemption disabled (whether
865 via preempt_disable(), local_irq_save(), local_bh_disable(),
866 or some other mechanism) as if they were explicit RCU readers?
867 If so, you need RCU-sched.
868
869d. Do you need RCU grace periods to complete even in the face
870 of softirq monopolization of one or more of the CPUs? For
871 example, is your code subject to network-based denial-of-service
872 attacks? If so, you need RCU-bh.
873
874e. Is your workload too update-intensive for normal use of
875 RCU, but inappropriate for other synchronization mechanisms?
876 If so, consider SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU. But please be careful!
877
878f. Otherwise, use RCU.
879
880Of course, this all assumes that you have determined that RCU is in fact
881the right tool for your job.

1ROM-able zImage boot from MMC
2-----------------------------
3
4An ROM-able zImage compiled with ZBOOT_ROM_MMCIF may be written to MMC and
5SuperH Mobile ARM will to boot directly from the MMCIF hardware block.
6
7This is achieved by the mask ROM loading the first portion of the image into
8MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion contains loader code which
9copies the entire image to SDRAM and jumps to it. From there the zImage
10boot code proceeds as normal, uncompressing the image into its final
11location and then jumping to it.
12
13This code has been tested on an AP4EB board using the developer 1A eMMC
14boot mode which is configured using the following jumper settings.
15The board used for testing required a patched mask ROM in order for
16this mode to function.

1README on the ADC/Touchscreen Controller
2========================================
3
4The LH79524 and LH7A404 include a built-in Analog to Digital
5controller (ADC) that is used to process input from a touchscreen.
6The driver only implements a four-wire touch panel protocol.
7
8The touchscreen driver is maintenance free except for the pen-down or
9touch threshold. Some resistive displays and board combinations may
10require tuning of this threshold. The driver exposes some of its
11internal state in the sys filesystem. If the kernel is configured
12with it, CONFIG_SYSFS, and sysfs is mounted at /sys, there will be a
13directory

21 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jan 1 00:00 threshold_range

23The threshold is the current touch threshold. It defaults to 750 on
24most targets.

41The samples file contains the most recently sampled values from the
42ADC. There are 12. Below are typical of the last sampled values when
43the pen has been released. The first two and last two samples are for
44detecting whether or not the pen is down. The third through sixth are
45X coordinate samples. The seventh through tenth are Y coordinate
46samples.

58values are the second and twelfth which are used to determine if the
59pen is down. When both are below the threshold, the driver registers
60that the pen is down. When either is above the threshold, it
61registers then pen is up.

1README on the Compact Flash for Card Engines
2============================================
3
4There are three challenges in supporting the CF interface of the Card
5Engines. First, every IO operation must be followed with IO to
6another memory region. Second, the slot is wired for one-to-one
7address mapping *and* it is wired for 16 bit access only. Second, the
8interrupt request line from the CF device isn't wired.
9
10The IOBARRIER issue is covered in README.IOBARRIER. This isn't an
11onerous problem. Enough said here.
12
13The addressing issue is solved in the
14arch/arm/mach-lh7a40x/ide-lpd7a40x.c file with some awkward
15work-arounds. We implement a special SELECT_DRIVE routine that is
16called before the IDE driver performs its own SELECT_DRIVE. Our code
17recognizes that the SELECT register cannot be modified without also
18writing a command. It send an IDLE_IMMEDIATE command on selecting a
19drive. The function also prevents drive select to the slave drive
20since there can be only one. The awkward part is that the IDE driver,
21even though we have a select procedure, also attempts to change the
22drive by writing directly the SELECT register. This attempt is
23explicitly blocked by the OUTB function--not pretty, but effective.
24
25The lack of interrupts is a more serious problem. Even though the CF
26card is fast when compared to a normal IDE device, we don't know that
27the CF is really flash. A user could use one of the very small hard
28drives being shipped with a CF interface. The IDE code includes a
29check for interfaces that lack an IRQ. In these cases, submitting a
30command to the IDE controller is followed by a call to poll for
31completion. If the device isn't immediately ready, it schedules a
32timer to poll again later.

1README on the IOBARRIER for CardEngine IO
2=========================================
3
4Due to an unfortunate oversight when the Card Engines were designed,
5the signals that control access to some peripherals, most notably the
6SMC91C9111 ethernet controller, are not properly handled.
7
8The symptom is that some back to back IO with the peripheral returns
9unreliable data. With the SMC chip, you'll see errors about the bank
10register being 'screwed'.
11
12The cause is that the AEN signal to the SMC chip does not transition
13for every memory access. It is driven through the CPLD from the CS7
14line of the CPU's static memory controller which is optimized to
15eliminate unnecessary transitions. Yet, the SMC requires a transition
16for every write access. The Sharp website has more information about
17the effect this power-conserving feature has on peripheral
18interfacing.
19
20The solution is to follow every write access to the SMC chip with an
21access to another memory region that will force the CPU to release the
22chip select line. It is important to guarantee that this access
23forces the CPU off-chip. We map a page of SDRAM as if it were an
24uncacheable IO device and read from it after every SMC IO write
25operation.
26
27 SMC IO
28 BARRIER IO
29
30Only this sequence is important. It does not matter that there is no
31BARRIER IO before the access to the SMC chip because the AEN latch
32only needs occurs after the SMC IO write cycle. The routines that
33implement this work-around make an additional concession which is to
34disable interrupts during the IO sequence. Other hardware devices
35(the LogicPD CPLD) have registers in the same physical memory
36region as the SMC chip. An interrupt might allow an access to one of
37those registers while SMC IO is being performed.
38
39You might be tempted to think that we have to access another device
40attached to the static memory controller, but the empirical evidence
41indicates that this is not so. Mapping 0x00000000 (flash) and
420xc0000000 (SDRAM) appear to have the same effect. Using SDRAM seems
43to be faster. Choosing to access an undecoded memory region is not
44desirable as there is no way to know how that chip select will be used
45in the future.

1README on the LCD Panels
2========================
3
4Configuration options for several LCD panels, available from Logic PD,
5are included in the kernel source. This README will help you
6understand the configuration data and give you some guidance for
7adding support for other panels if you wish.
8
9
10lcd-panels.h
11------------
12
13There is no way, at present, to detect which panel is attached to the
14system at runtime. Thus the kernel configuration is static. The file
15arch/arm/mach-ld7a40x/lcd-panels.h (or similar) defines all of the
16panel specific parameters.
17
18It should be possible for this data to be shared among several device
19families. The current layout may be insufficiently general, but it is
20amenable to improvement.
21
22
23PIXEL_CLOCK
24-----------
25
26The panel data sheets will give a range of acceptable pixel clocks.
27The fundamental LCDCLK input frequency is divided down by a PCD
28constant in field '.tim2'. It may happen that it is impossible to set
29the pixel clock within this range. A clock which is too slow will
30tend to flicker. For the highest quality image, set the clock as high
31as possible.
32
33
34MARGINS
35-------
36
37These values may be difficult to glean from the panel data sheet. In
38the case of the Sharp panels, the upper margin is explicitly called
39out as a specific number of lines from the top of the frame. The
40other values may not matter as much as the panels tend to
41automatically center the image.
42
43
44Sync Sense
45----------
46
47The sense of the hsync and vsync pulses may be called out in the data
48sheet. On one panel, the sense of these pulses determine the height
49of the visible region on the panel. Most of the Sharp panels use
50negative sense sync pulses set by the TIM2_IHS and TIM2_IVS bits in
51'.tim2'.
52
53
54Pel Layout
55----------
56
57The Sharp color TFT panels are all configured for 16 bit direct color
58modes. The amba-lcd driver sets the pel mode to 565 for 5 bits of
59each red and blue and 6 bits of green.

1README on the SDRAM Controller for the LH7a40X
2==============================================
3
4The standard configuration for the SDRAM controller generates a sparse
5memory array. The precise layout is determined by the SDRAM chips. A
6default kernel configuration assembles the discontiguous memory
7regions into separate memory nodes via the NUMA (Non-Uniform Memory
8Architecture) facilities. In this default configuration, the kernel
9is forgiving about the precise layout. As long as it is given an
10accurate picture of available memory by the bootloader the kernel will
11execute correctly.
12
13The SDRC supports a mode where some of the chip select lines are
14swapped in order to make SDRAM look like a synchronous ROM. Setting
15this bit means that the RAM will present as a contiguous array. Some
16programmers prefer this to the discontiguous layout. Be aware that
17may be a penalty for this feature where some some configurations of
18memory are significantly reduced; i.e. 64MiB of RAM appears as only 32
19MiB.
20
21There are a couple of configuration options to override the default
22behavior. When the SROMLL bit is set and memory appears as a
23contiguous array, there is no reason to support NUMA.
24CONFIG_LH7A40X_CONTIGMEM disables NUMA support. When physical memory
25is discontiguous, the memory tables are organized such that there are
26two banks per nodes with a small gap between them. This layout wastes
27some kernel memory for page tables representing non-existent memory.
28CONFIG_LH7A40X_ONE_BANK_PER_NODE optimizes the node tables such that
29there are no gaps. These options control the low level organization
30of the memory management tables in ways that may prevent the kernel
31from booting or may cause the kernel to allocated excessively large
32page tables. Be warned. Only change these options if you know what
33you are doing. The default behavior is a reasonable compromise that
34will suit all users.
35
36--
37
38A typical 32MiB system with the default configuration options will
39find physical memory managed as follows.
40
41 node 0: 0xc0000000 4MiB
42 0xc1000000 4MiB
43 node 1: 0xc4000000 4MiB
44 0xc5000000 4MiB
45 node 2: 0xc8000000 4MiB
46 0xc9000000 4MiB
47 node 3: 0xcc000000 4MiB
48 0xcd000000 4MiB
49
50Setting CONFIG_LH7A40X_ONE_BANK_PER_NODE will put each bank into a
51separate node.

1README on the Vectored Interrupt Controller of the LH7A404
2==========================================================
3
4The 404 revision of the LH7A40X series comes with two vectored
5interrupts controllers. While the kernel does use some of the
6features of these devices, it is far from the purpose for which they
7were designed.
8
9When this README was written, the implementation of the VICs was in
10flux. It is possible that some details, especially with priorities,
11will change.
12
13The VIC support code is inspired by routines written by Sharp.
14
15
16Priority Control
17----------------
18
19The significant reason for using the VIC's vectoring is to control
20interrupt priorities. There are two tables in
21arch/arm/mach-lh7a40x/irq-lh7a404.c that look something like this.
22
23 static unsigned char irq_pri_vic1[] = { IRQ_GPIO3INTR, };
24 static unsigned char irq_pri_vic2[] = {
25 IRQ_T3UI, IRQ_GPIO7INTR,
26 IRQ_UART1INTR, IRQ_UART2INTR, IRQ_UART3INTR, };
27
28The initialization code reads these tables and inserts a vector
29address and enable for each indicated IRQ. Vectored interrupts have
30higher priority than non-vectored interrupts. So, on VIC1,
31IRQ_GPIO3INTR will be served before any other non-FIQ interrupt. Due
32to the way that the vectoring works, IRQ_T3UI is the next highest
33priority followed by the other vectored interrupts on VIC2. After
34that, the non-vectored interrupts are scanned in VIC1 then in VIC2.
35
36
37ISR
38---
39
40The interrupt service routine macro get_irqnr() in
41arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S scans the VICs for the next active
42interrupt. The vectoring makes this code somewhat larger than it was
43before using vectoring (refer to the LH7A400 implementation). In the
44case where an interrupt is vectored, the implementation will tend to
45be faster than the non-vectored version. However, the worst-case path
46is longer.
47
48It is worth noting that at present, there is no need to read
49VIC2_VECTADDR because the register appears to be shared between the
50controllers. The code is written such that if this changes, it ought
51to still work properly.
52
53
54Vector Addresses
55----------------
56
57The proper use of the vectoring hardware would jump to the ISR
58specified by the vectoring address. Linux isn't structured to take
59advantage of this feature, though it might be possible to change
60things to support it.
61
62In this implementation, the vectoring address is used to speed the
63search for the active IRQ. The address is coded such that the lowest
646 bits store the IRQ number for vectored interrupts. These numbers
65correspond to the bits in the interrupt status registers. IRQ zero is
66the lowest interrupt bit in VIC1. IRQ 32 is the lowest interrupt bit
67in VIC2. Because zero is a valid IRQ number and because we cannot
68detect whether or not there is a valid vectoring address if that
69address is zero, the eigth bit (0x100) is set for vectored interrupts.
70The address for IRQ 0x18 (VIC2) is 0x118. Only the ninth bit is set
71for the default handler on VIC1 and only the tenth bit is set for the
72default handler on VIC2.
73
74In other words.
75
76 0x000 - no active interrupt
77 0x1ii - vectored interrupt 0xii
78 0x2xx - unvectored interrupt on VIC1 (xx is don't care)
79 0x4xx - unvectored interrupt on VIC2 (xx is don't care)

1CE4100 I2C
2----------
3
4CE4100 has one PCI device which is described as the I2C-Controller. This
5PCI device has three PCI-bars, each bar contains a complete I2C
6controller. So we have a total of three independent I2C-Controllers
7which share only an interrupt line.
8The driver is probed via the PCI-ID and is gathering the information of
9attached devices from the devices tree.
10Grant Likely recommended to use the ranges property to map the PCI-Bar
11number to its physical address and to use this to find the child nodes
12of the specific I2C controller. This were his exact words:
13
14 Here's where the magic happens. Each entry in
15 ranges describes how the parent pci address space
16 (middle group of 3) is translated to the local
17 address space (first group of 2) and the size of
18 each range (last cell). In this particular case,
19 the first cell of the local address is chosen to be
20 1:1 mapped to the BARs, and the second is the
21 offset from be base of the BAR (which would be
22 non-zero if you had 2 or more devices mapped off
23 the same BAR)
24
25 ranges allows the address mapping to be described
26 in a way that the OS can interpret without
27 requiring custom device driver code.
28
29This is an example which is used on FalconFalls:

60INTERRUPT SPECIFIER DEFINITION
61
62 Interrupt specifiers consists of 4 cells encoded as
63 follows:
64
65 <1st-cell> interrupt-number
66
67 Identifies the interrupt source. The meaning
68 depends on the type of interrupt.
69
70 Note: If the interrupt-type cell is undefined
71 (i.e. #interrupt-cells = 2), this cell
72 should be interpreted the same as for
73 interrupt-type 0-- i.e. an external or
74 normal SoC device interrupt.
75
76 <2nd-cell> level-sense information, encoded as follows:
77 0 = low-to-high edge triggered
78 1 = active low level-sensitive
79 2 = active high level-sensitive
80 3 = high-to-low edge triggered
81
82 <3rd-cell> interrupt-type
83
84 The following types are supported:
85
86 0 = external or normal SoC device interrupt
87
88 The interrupt-number cell contains
89 the SoC device interrupt number. The
90 type-specific cell is undefined. The
91 interrupt-number is derived from the
92 MPIC a block of registers referred to as
93 the "Interrupt Source Configuration Registers".
94 Each source has 32-bytes of registers
95 (vector/priority and destination) in this
96 region. So interrupt 0 is at offset 0x0,
97 interrupt 1 is at offset 0x20, and so on.
98
99 1 = error interrupt
100
101 The interrupt-number cell contains
102 the SoC device interrupt number for
103 the error interrupt. The type-specific
104 cell identifies the specific error
105 interrupt number.
106
107 2 = MPIC inter-processor interrupt (IPI)
108
109 The interrupt-number cell identifies
110 the MPIC IPI number. The type-specific
111 cell is undefined.
112
113 3 = MPIC timer interrupt
114
115 The interrupt-number cell identifies
116 the MPIC timer number. The type-specific
117 cell is undefined.
118
119 <4th-cell> type-specific information
120
121 The type-specific cell is encoded as follows:
122
123 - For interrupt-type 1 (error interrupt),
124 the type-specific cell contains the
125 bit number of the error interrupt in the
126 Error Interrupt Summary Register.

1CE4100 Device Tree Bindings

4The CE4100 SoC uses for in core peripherals the following compatible
5format: <vendor>,<chip>-<device>.
6Many of the "generic" devices like HPET or IO APIC have the ce4100
7name in their compatible property because they first appeared in this
8SoC.

10The CPU node
11------------
12 cpu@0 {
13 device_type = "cpu";
14 compatible = "intel,ce4100";
15 reg = <0>;
16 lapic = <&lapic0>;
17 };
18
19The reg property describes the CPU number. The lapic property points to
20the local APIC timer.
21
22The SoC node
23------------
24
25This node describes the in-core peripherals. Required property:
26 compatible = "intel,ce4100-cp";
27
28The PCI node
29------------
30This node describes the PCI bus on the SoC. Its property should be
31 compatible = "intel,ce4100-pci", "pci";
32
33If the OS is using the IO-APIC for interrupt routing then the reported
34interrupt numbers for devices is no longer true. In order to obtain the
35correct interrupt number, the child node which represents the device has
36to contain the interrupt property. Besides the interrupt property it has
37to contain at least the reg property containing the PCI bus address and
38compatible property according to "PCI Bus Binding Revision 2.1".

232 There is one single entry point to the kernel, at the start
233 of the kernel image. That entry point supports two calling
234 conventions. A summary of the interface is described here. A full
235 description of the boot requirements is documented in
236 Documentation/arm/Booting
237
238 a) ATAGS interface. Minimal information is passed from firmware
239 to the kernel with a tagged list of predefined parameters.
240
241 r0 : 0
242
243 r1 : Machine type number
244
245 r2 : Physical address of tagged list in system RAM
246
247 b) Entry with a flattened device-tree block. Firmware loads the
248 physical address of the flattened device tree block (dtb) into r2,
249 r1 is not used, but it is considered good practise to use a valid
250 machine number as described in Documentation/arm/Booting.
251
252 r0 : 0
253
254 r1 : Valid machine type number. When using a device tree,
255 a single machine type number will often be assigned to
256 represent a class or family of SoCs.
257
258 r2 : physical pointer to the device-tree block
259 (defined in chapter II) in RAM. Device tree can be located
260 anywhere in system RAM, but it should be aligned on a 32 bit
261 boundary.
262
263 The kernel will differentiate between ATAGS and device tree booting by
264 reading the memory pointed to by r1 and looking for either the flattened
265 device tree block magic value (0xd00dfeed) or the ATAG_CORE value at
266 offset 0x4 from r2 (0x54410001).
267 231
232 There is one single 32bit entry point to the kernel at code32_start,
233 the decompressor (the real mode entry point goes to the same 32bit
234 entry point once it switched into protected mode). That entry point
235 supports one calling convention which is documented in
236 Documentation/x86/boot.txt
237 The physical pointer to the device-tree block (defined in chapter II)
238 is passed via setup_data which requires at least boot protocol 2.09.
239 The type filed is defined as
240
241 #define SETUP_DTB 2
242
243 This device-tree is used as an extension to the "boot page". As such it
244 does not parse / consider data which is already covered by the boot
245 page. This includes memory size, reserved ranges, command line arguments
246 or initrd address. It simply holds information which can not be retrieved
247 otherwise like interrupt routing or a list of devices behind an I2C bus.

14Description
15-----------
16
17This driver supports various Lineage Compact Power Line DC/DC and AC/DC
18converters such as CP1800, CP2000AC, CP2000DC, CP2100DC, and others.
19
20Lineage CPL power entry modules are nominally PMBus compliant. However, most
21standard PMBus commands are not supported. Specifically, all hardware monitoring
22and status reporting commands are non-standard. For this reason, a standard
23PMBus driver can not be used.
24
25
26Usage Notes
27-----------
28
29This driver does not probe for Lineage CPL devices, since there is no register
30which can be safely used to identify the chip. You will have to instantiate
31the devices explicitly.
32
33Example: the following will load the driver for a Lineage PEM at address 0x40
34on I2C bus #1:
35$ modprobe lineage-pem
36$ echo lineage-pem 0x40 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
37
38All Lineage CPL power entry modules have a built-in I2C bus master selector
39(PCA9541). To ensure device access, this driver should only be used as client
40driver to the pca9541 I2C master selector driver.
41
42
43Sysfs entries
44-------------
45
46All Lineage CPL devices report output voltage and device temperature as well as
47alarms for output voltage, temperature, input voltage, input current, input power,
48and fan status.
49
50Input voltage, input current, input power, and fan speed measurement is only
51supported on newer devices. The driver detects if those attributes are supported,
52and only creates respective sysfs entries if they are.

44Description
45-----------
46
47This driver supports hardware montoring for various PMBus compliant devices.
48It supports voltage, current, power, and temperature sensors as supported
49by the device.
50
51Each monitored channel has its own high and low limits, plus a critical
52limit.
53
54Fan support will be added in a later version of this driver.
55
56
57Usage Notes
58-----------
59
60This driver does not probe for PMBus devices, since there is no register
61which can be safely used to identify the chip (The MFG_ID register is not
62supported by all chips), and since there is no well defined address range for
63PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate the devices explicitly.
64
65Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC2978 at address 0x60
66on I2C bus #1:
67$ modprobe pmbus
68$ echo ltc2978 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
69
70
71Platform data support
72---------------------
73
74Support for additional PMBus chips can be added by defining chip parameters in
75a new chip specific driver file. For example, (untested) code to add support for
76Emerson DS1200 power modules might look as follows.

143When probing the chip, the driver identifies which PMBus registers are
144supported, and determines available sensors from this information.
145Attribute files only exist if respective sensors are suported by the chip.
146Labels are provided to inform the user about the sensor associated with
147a given sysfs entry.

1Hardware Spinlock Framework
2
31. Introduction
4
5Hardware spinlock modules provide hardware assistance for synchronization
6and mutual exclusion between heterogeneous processors and those not operating
7under a single, shared operating system.
8
9For example, OMAP4 has dual Cortex-A9, dual Cortex-M3 and a C64x+ DSP,
10each of which is running a different Operating System (the master, A9,
11is usually running Linux and the slave processors, the M3 and the DSP,
12are running some flavor of RTOS).
13
14A generic hwspinlock framework allows platform-independent drivers to use
15the hwspinlock device in order to access data structures that are shared
16between remote processors, that otherwise have no alternative mechanism
17to accomplish synchronization and mutual exclusion operations.
18
19This is necessary, for example, for Inter-processor communications:
20on OMAP4, cpu-intensive multimedia tasks are offloaded by the host to the
21remote M3 and/or C64x+ slave processors (by an IPC subsystem called Syslink).
22
23To achieve fast message-based communications, a minimal kernel support
24is needed to deliver messages arriving from a remote processor to the
25appropriate user process.
26
27This communication is based on simple data structures that is shared between
28the remote processors, and access to it is synchronized using the hwspinlock
29module (remote processor directly places new messages in this shared data
30structure).
31
32A common hwspinlock interface makes it possible to have generic, platform-
33independent, drivers.
34
352. User API
36
37 struct hwspinlock *hwspin_lock_request(void);
38 - dynamically assign an hwspinlock and return its address, or NULL
39 in case an unused hwspinlock isn't available. Users of this
40 API will usually want to communicate the lock's id to the remote core
41 before it can be used to achieve synchronization.
42 Can be called from an atomic context (this function will not sleep) but
43 not from within interrupt context.
44
45 struct hwspinlock *hwspin_lock_request_specific(unsigned int id);
46 - assign a specific hwspinlock id and return its address, or NULL
47 if that hwspinlock is already in use. Usually board code will
48 be calling this function in order to reserve specific hwspinlock
49 ids for predefined purposes.
50 Can be called from an atomic context (this function will not sleep) but
51 not from within interrupt context.
52
53 int hwspin_lock_free(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
54 - free a previously-assigned hwspinlock; returns 0 on success, or an
55 appropriate error code on failure (e.g. -EINVAL if the hwspinlock
56 is already free).
57 Can be called from an atomic context (this function will not sleep) but
58 not from within interrupt context.
59
60 int hwspin_lock_timeout(struct hwspinlock *hwlock, unsigned int timeout);
61 - lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock with a timeout limit (specified in
62 msecs). If the hwspinlock is already taken, the function will busy loop
63 waiting for it to be released, but give up when the timeout elapses.
64 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption is disabled so
65 the caller must not sleep, and is advised to release the hwspinlock as
66 soon as possible, in order to minimize remote cores polling on the
67 hardware interconnect.
68 Returns 0 when successful and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
69 notably -ETIMEDOUT if the hwspinlock is still busy after timeout msecs).
70 The function will never sleep.
71
72 int hwspin_lock_timeout_irq(struct hwspinlock *hwlock, unsigned int timeout);
73 - lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock with a timeout limit (specified in
74 msecs). If the hwspinlock is already taken, the function will busy loop
75 waiting for it to be released, but give up when the timeout elapses.
76 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption and the local
77 interrupts are disabled, so the caller must not sleep, and is advised to
78 release the hwspinlock as soon as possible.
79 Returns 0 when successful and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
80 notably -ETIMEDOUT if the hwspinlock is still busy after timeout msecs).
81 The function will never sleep.
82
83 int hwspin_lock_timeout_irqsave(struct hwspinlock *hwlock, unsigned int to,
84 unsigned long *flags);
85 - lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock with a timeout limit (specified in
86 msecs). If the hwspinlock is already taken, the function will busy loop
87 waiting for it to be released, but give up when the timeout elapses.
88 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption is disabled,
89 local interrupts are disabled and their previous state is saved at the
90 given flags placeholder. The caller must not sleep, and is advised to
91 release the hwspinlock as soon as possible.
92 Returns 0 when successful and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
93 notably -ETIMEDOUT if the hwspinlock is still busy after timeout msecs).
94 The function will never sleep.
95
96 int hwspin_trylock(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
97 - attempt to lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock, but immediately fail if
98 it is already taken.
99 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption is disabled so
100 caller must not sleep, and is advised to release the hwspinlock as soon as
101 possible, in order to minimize remote cores polling on the hardware
102 interconnect.
103 Returns 0 on success and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
104 notably -EBUSY if the hwspinlock was already taken).
105 The function will never sleep.
106
107 int hwspin_trylock_irq(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
108 - attempt to lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock, but immediately fail if
109 it is already taken.
110 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption and the local
111 interrupts are disabled so caller must not sleep, and is advised to
112 release the hwspinlock as soon as possible.
113 Returns 0 on success and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
114 notably -EBUSY if the hwspinlock was already taken).
115 The function will never sleep.
116
117 int hwspin_trylock_irqsave(struct hwspinlock *hwlock, unsigned long *flags);
118 - attempt to lock a previously-assigned hwspinlock, but immediately fail if
119 it is already taken.
120 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption is disabled,
121 the local interrupts are disabled and their previous state is saved
122 at the given flags placeholder. The caller must not sleep, and is advised
123 to release the hwspinlock as soon as possible.
124 Returns 0 on success and an appropriate error code otherwise (most
125 notably -EBUSY if the hwspinlock was already taken).
126 The function will never sleep.
127
128 void hwspin_unlock(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
129 - unlock a previously-locked hwspinlock. Always succeed, and can be called
130 from any context (the function never sleeps). Note: code should _never_
131 unlock an hwspinlock which is already unlocked (there is no protection
132 against this).
133
134 void hwspin_unlock_irq(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
135 - unlock a previously-locked hwspinlock and enable local interrupts.
136 The caller should _never_ unlock an hwspinlock which is already unlocked.
137 Doing so is considered a bug (there is no protection against this).
138 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption and local
139 interrupts are enabled. This function will never sleep.
140
141 void
142 hwspin_unlock_irqrestore(struct hwspinlock *hwlock, unsigned long *flags);
143 - unlock a previously-locked hwspinlock.
144 The caller should _never_ unlock an hwspinlock which is already unlocked.
145 Doing so is considered a bug (there is no protection against this).
146 Upon a successful return from this function, preemption is reenabled,
147 and the state of the local interrupts is restored to the state saved at
148 the given flags. This function will never sleep.
149
150 int hwspin_lock_get_id(struct hwspinlock *hwlock);
151 - retrieve id number of a given hwspinlock. This is needed when an
152 hwspinlock is dynamically assigned: before it can be used to achieve
153 mutual exclusion with a remote cpu, the id number should be communicated
154 to the remote task with which we want to synchronize.
155 Returns the hwspinlock id number, or -EINVAL if hwlock is null.

261struct hwspinlock {
262 struct device *dev;

270owner members. The lock member, OTOH, is initialized and used by the hwspinlock
271core.
272
2736. Implementation callbacks
274
275There are three possible callbacks defined in 'struct hwspinlock_ops':
276
277struct hwspinlock_ops {
278 int (*trylock)(struct hwspinlock *lock);
279 void (*unlock)(struct hwspinlock *lock);
280 void (*relax)(struct hwspinlock *lock);
281};
282
283The first two callbacks are mandatory:
284
285The ->trylock() callback should make a single attempt to take the lock, and
286return 0 on failure and 1 on success. This callback may _not_ sleep.
287
288The ->unlock() callback releases the lock. It always succeed, and it, too,
289may _not_ sleep.
290
291The ->relax() callback is optional. It is called by hwspinlock core while
292spinning on a lock, and can be used by the underlying implementation to force
293a delay between two successive invocations of ->trylock(). It may _not_ sleep.

963TRANSITIVITY
964------------
965
966Transitivity is a deeply intuitive notion about ordering that is not
967always provided by real computer systems. The following example
968demonstrates transitivity (also called "cumulativity"):
969
970 CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
971 ======================= ======================= =======================
972 { X = 0, Y = 0 }
973 STORE X=1 LOAD X STORE Y=1
974 <general barrier> <general barrier>
975 LOAD Y LOAD X
976
977Suppose that CPU 2's load from X returns 1 and its load from Y returns 0.
978This indicates that CPU 2's load from X in some sense follows CPU 1's
979store to X and that CPU 2's load from Y in some sense preceded CPU 3's
980store to Y. The question is then "Can CPU 3's load from X return 0?"
981
982Because CPU 2's load from X in some sense came after CPU 1's store, it
983is natural to expect that CPU 3's load from X must therefore return 1.
984This expectation is an example of transitivity: if a load executing on
985CPU A follows a load from the same variable executing on CPU B, then
986CPU A's load must either return the same value that CPU B's load did,
987or must return some later value.
988
989In the Linux kernel, use of general memory barriers guarantees
990transitivity. Therefore, in the above example, if CPU 2's load from X
991returns 1 and its load from Y returns 0, then CPU 3's load from X must
992also return 1.
993
994However, transitivity is -not- guaranteed for read or write barriers.
995For example, suppose that CPU 2's general barrier in the above example
996is changed to a read barrier as shown below:
997
998 CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
999 ======================= ======================= =======================
1000 { X = 0, Y = 0 }
1001 STORE X=1 LOAD X STORE Y=1
1002 <read barrier> <general barrier>
1003 LOAD Y LOAD X
1004
1005This substitution destroys transitivity: in this example, it is perfectly
1006legal for CPU 2's load from X to return 1, its load from Y to return 0,
1007and CPU 3's load from X to return 0.
1008
1009The key point is that although CPU 2's read barrier orders its pair
1010of loads, it does not guarantee to order CPU 1's store. Therefore, if
1011this example runs on a system where CPUs 1 and 2 share a store buffer
1012or a level of cache, CPU 2 might have early access to CPU 1's writes.
1013General barriers are therefore required to ensure that all CPUs agree
1014on the combined order of CPU 1's and CPU 2's accesses.
1015
1016To reiterate, if your code requires transitivity, use general barriers
1017throughout.

187
188Phonet Pipe-controller is enabled by selecting the CONFIG_PHONET_PIPECTRLR Kconfig
189option. It is useful when communicating with those Nokia Modems which do not
190implement Pipe controller in them e.g. Nokia Slim Modem used in ST-Ericsson
191U8500 platform.
192
193The implementation is based on the Data Connection Establishment Sequence
194depicted in 'Nokia Wireless Modem API - Wireless_modem_user_guide.pdf'
195document.
196
197It allows a phonet sequenced socket (host-pep) to initiate a Pipe connection
198between itself and a remote pipe-end point (e.g. modem).
199
200The implementation adds socket options at SOL_PNPIPE level:
201
202 PNPIPE_PIPE_HANDLE
203 It accepts an integer argument for setting value of pipe handle.
204
205 PNPIPE_ENABLE accepts one integer value (int). If set to zero, the pipe
206 is disabled. If the value is non-zero, the pipe is enabled. If the pipe
207 is not (yet) connected, ENOTCONN is error is returned.
208
209The implementation also adds socket 'connect'. On calling the 'connect', pipe
210will be created between the source socket and the destination, and the pipe
211state will be set to PIPE_DISABLED.
212
213After a pipe has been created and enabled successfully, the Pipe data can be
214exchanged between the host-pep and remote-pep (modem).

505Device Power Domains
506--------------------
507Sometimes devices share reference clocks or other power resources. In those
508cases it generally is not possible to put devices into low-power states
509individually. Instead, a set of devices sharing a power resource can be put
510into a low-power state together at the same time by turning off the shared
511power resource. Of course, they also need to be put into the full-power state
512together, by turning the shared power resource on. A set of devices with this
513property is often referred to as a power domain.
514
515Support for power domains is provided through the pwr_domain field of struct
516device. This field is a pointer to an object of type struct dev_power_domain,
517defined in include/linux/pm.h, providing a set of power management callbacks
518analogous to the subsystem-level and device driver callbacks that are executed
519for the given device during all power transitions, in addition to the respective
520subsystem-level callbacks. Specifically, the power domain "suspend" callbacks
521(i.e. ->runtime_suspend(), ->suspend(), ->freeze(), ->poweroff(), etc.) are
522executed after the analogous subsystem-level callbacks, while the power domain
523"resume" callbacks (i.e. ->runtime_resume(), ->resume(), ->thaw(), ->restore,
524etc.) are executed before the analogous subsystem-level callbacks. Error codes
525returned by the "suspend" and "resume" power domain callbacks are ignored.
526
527Power domain ->runtime_idle() callback is executed before the subsystem-level
528->runtime_idle() callback and the result returned by it is not ignored. Namely,
529if it returns error code, the subsystem-level ->runtime_idle() callback will not
530be called and the helper function rpm_idle() executing it will return error
531code. This mechanism is intended to help platforms where saving device state
532is a time consuming operation and should only be carried out if all devices
533in the power domain are idle, before turning off the shared power resource(s).
534Namely, the power domain ->runtime_idle() callback may return error code until
535the pm_runtime_idle() helper (or its asychronous version) has been called for
536all devices in the power domain (it is recommended that the returned error code
537be -EBUSY in those cases), preventing the subsystem-level ->runtime_idle()
538callback from being run prematurely.
539
540The support for device power domains is only relevant to platforms needing to
541use the same subsystem-level (e.g. platform bus type) and device driver power
542management callbacks in many different power domain configurations and wanting
543to avoid incorporating the support for power domains into the subsystem-level
544callbacks. The other platforms need not implement it or take it into account
545in any way.

1n_gsm.c GSM 0710 tty multiplexor HOWTO
2===================================================
3
4This line discipline implements the GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol
5detailed in the following 3GPP document :
6http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/07_series/07.10/0710-720.zip
7
8This document give some hints on how to use this driver with GPRS and 3G
9modems connected to a physical serial port.
10
11How to use it
12-------------
131- initialize the modem in 0710 mux mode (usually AT+CMUX= command) through
14its serial port. Depending on the modem used, you can pass more or less
15parameters to this command,
162- switch the serial line to using the n_gsm line discipline by using
17TIOCSETD ioctl,
183- configure the mux using GSMIOC_GETCONF / GSMIOC_SETCONF ioctl,
19
20Major parts of the initialization program :
21(a good starting point is util-linux-ng/sys-utils/ldattach.c)
22#include <linux/gsmmux.h>
23#define N_GSM0710 21 /* GSM 0710 Mux */
24#define DEFAULT_SPEED B115200
25#define SERIAL_PORT /dev/ttyS0
26
27 int ldisc = N_GSM0710;
28 struct gsm_config c;
29 struct termios configuration;
30
31 /* open the serial port connected to the modem */
32 fd = open(SERIAL_PORT, O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
33
34 /* configure the serial port : speed, flow control ... */
35
36 /* send the AT commands to switch the modem to CMUX mode
37 and check that it's succesful (should return OK) */
38 write(fd, "AT+CMUX=0\r", 10);
39
40 /* experience showed that some modems need some time before
41 being able to answer to the first MUX packet so a delay
42 may be needed here in some case */
43 sleep(3);
44
45 /* use n_gsm line discipline */
46 ioctl(fd, TIOCSETD, &ldisc);
47
48 /* get n_gsm configuration */
49 ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_GETCONF, &c);
50 /* we are initiator and need encoding 0 (basic) */
51 c.initiator = 1;
52 c.encapsulation = 0;
53 /* our modem defaults to a maximum size of 127 bytes */
54 c.mru = 127;
55 c.mtu = 127;
56 /* set the new configuration */
57 ioctl(fd, GSMIOC_SETCONF, &c);
58
59 /* and wait for ever to keep the line discipline enabled */
60 daemon(0,0);
61 pause();
62
634- create the devices corresponding to the "virtual" serial ports (take care,
64each modem has its configuration and some DLC have dedicated functions,
65for example GPS), starting with minor 1 (DLC0 is reserved for the management
66of the mux)
67
68MAJOR=`cat /proc/devices |grep gsmtty | awk '{print $1}`
69for i in `seq 1 4`; do
70 mknod /dev/ttygsm$i c $MAJOR $i
71done
72
735- use these devices as plain serial ports.
74for example, it's possible :
75- and to use gnokii to send / receive SMS on ttygsm1
76- to use ppp to establish a datalink on ttygsm2
77
786- first close all virtual ports before closing the physical port.

528As we have discussed previously about this format, the header
529shows the name of the trace and points to the options. The
530"FUNCTION" is a misnomer since here it represents the wake ups
531and context switches.
532
533The sched_switch file only lists the wake ups (represented with
534'+') and context switches ('==>') with the previous task or
535current task first followed by the next task or task waking up.
536The format for both of these is PID:KERNEL-PRIO:TASK-STATE.
537Remember that the KERNEL-PRIO is the inverse of the actual
538priority with zero (0) being the highest priority and the nice
539values starting at 100 (nice -20). Below is a quick chart to map
540the kernel priority to user land priorities.
541
542 Kernel Space User Space
543 ===============================================================
544 0(high) to 98(low) user RT priority 99(high) to 1(low)
545 with SCHED_RR or SCHED_FIFO
546 ---------------------------------------------------------------
547 99 sched_priority is not used in scheduling
548 decisions(it must be specified as 0)
549 ---------------------------------------------------------------
550 100(high) to 139(low) user nice -20(high) to 19(low)
551 ---------------------------------------------------------------
552 140 idle task priority
553 ---------------------------------------------------------------
554
555The task states are:
556
557 R - running : wants to run, may not actually be running
558 S - sleep : process is waiting to be woken up (handles signals)
559 D - disk sleep (uninterruptible sleep) : process must be woken up
560 (ignores signals)
561 T - stopped : process suspended
562 t - traced : process is being traced (with something like gdb)
563 Z - zombie : process waiting to be cleaned up
564 X - unknown

53Several types are supported for fetch-args. Kprobe tracer will access memory
54by given type. Prefix 's' and 'u' means those types are signed and unsigned
55respectively. Traced arguments are shown in decimal (signed) or hex (unsigned).
56String type is a special type, which fetches a "null-terminated" string from
57kernel space. This means it will fail and store NULL if the string container
58has been paged out.
59Bitfield is another special type, which takes 3 parameters, bit-width, bit-
60offset, and container-size (usually 32). The syntax is;

24Linux内核提交清单
25~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
26
27这里有一些内核开发者应该做的基本事情,如果他们想看到自己的内核补丁提交
28被接受的更快。
29
30这些都是超出Documentation/SubmittingPatches文档里所提供的以及其他
31关于提交Linux内核补丁的说明。
32
331:如果你使用了一个功能那么就#include定义/声明那个功能的那个文件。
34 不要依靠其他间接引入定义/声明那个功能的头文件。
35
362:构建简洁适用或者更改CONFIG选项 =y,=m,或者=n。
37 不要有编译警告/错误, 不要有链接警告/错误。
38
392b:通过 allnoconfig, allmodconfig
40
412c:当使用 0=builddir 成功地构建
42
433:通过使用本地交叉编译工具或者其他一些构建产所,在多CPU框架上构建。
44
454:ppc64 是一个很好的检查交叉编译的框架,因为它往往把‘unsigned long’
46 当64位值来使用。
47
485:按照Documentation/CodingStyle文件里的详细描述,检查你补丁的整体风格。
49 使用补丁风格检查琐碎的违规(scripts/checkpatch.pl),审核员优先提交。
50 你应该调整遗留在你补丁中的所有违规。
51
526:任何更新或者改动CONFIG选项都不能打乱配置菜单。
53
547:所有的Kconfig选项更新都要有说明文字。
55
568:已经认真地总结了相关的Kconfig组合。这是很难通过测试做好的--脑力在这里下降。
57
589:检查具有简洁性。
59
6010:使用'make checkstack'和'make namespacecheck'检查,然后修改所找到的问题。
61 注意:堆栈检查不会明确地出现问题,但是任何的一个函数在堆栈上使用多于512字节
62 都要准备修改。
63
6411:包含kernel-doc到全局内核APIs文件。(不要求静态的函数,但是包含也无所谓。)
65 使用'make htmldocs'或者'make mandocs'来检查kernel-doc,然后修改任何
66 发现的问题。
67
6812:已经通过CONFIG_PREEMPT, CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT,
69 CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES,
70 CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP测试,并且同时都
71 使能。
72
7313:已经都构建并且使用或者不使用 CONFIG_SMP 和 CONFIG_PREEMPT测试执行时间。
74
7514:如果补丁影响IO/Disk,等等:已经通过使用或者不使用 CONFIG_LBDAF 测试。
76
7715:所有的codepaths已经行使所有lockdep启用功能。
78
7916:所有的/proc记录更新都要作成文件放在Documentation/目录下。
80
8117:所有的内核启动参数更新都被记录到Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt文件中。
82
8318:所有的模块参数更新都用MODULE_PARM_DESC()记录。
84
8519:所有的用户空间接口更新都被记录到Documentation/ABI/。查看Documentation/ABI/README
86 可以获得更多的信息。改变用户空间接口的补丁应该被邮件抄送给linux-api@vger.kernel.org。
87
8820:检查它是不是都通过`make headers_check'。
89
9021:已经通过至少引入slab和page-allocation失败检查。查看Documentation/fault-injection/。
91
9222:新加入的源码已经通过`gcc -W'(使用"make EXTRA_CFLAGS=-W")编译。这样将产生很多烦恼,
93 但是对于寻找漏洞很有益处,例如:"warning: comparison between signed and unsigned"。
94
9523:当它被合并到-mm补丁集后再测试,用来确定它是否还和补丁队列中的其他补丁一起工作以及在VM,VFS
96 和其他子系统中各个变化。
97
9824:所有的内存屏障{e.g., barrier(), rmb(), wmb()}需要在源代码中的一个注释来解释他们都是干什么的
99 以及原因。
100
10125:如果有任何输入输出控制的补丁被添加,也要更新Documentation/ioctl/ioctl-number.txt。
102
10326:如果你的更改代码依靠或者使用任何的内核APIs或者与下面的kconfig符号有关系的功能,你就要
104 使用相关的kconfig符号关闭, and/or =m(如果选项提供)[在同一时间不是所用的都启用,仅仅各个或者自由
105 组合他们]:
106
107 CONFIG_SMP, CONFIG_SYSFS, CONFIG_PROC_FS, CONFIG_INPUT, CONFIG_PCI,
108 CONFIG_BLOCK, CONFIG_PM, CONFIG_HOTPLUG, CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ,
109 CONFIG_NET, CONFIG_INET=n (后一个使用 CONFIG_NET=y)
