+Frequently asked questions about the sunxi clock system
+=======================================================
+
+This document contains useful bits of information that people tend to ask
+about the sunxi clock system, as well as accompanying ASCII art when adequate.
+
+Q: Why is the main 24MHz oscillator gatable? Wouldn't that break the
+   system?
+
+A: The 24MHz oscillator allows gating to save power. Indeed, if gated
+   carelessly the system would stop functioning, but with the right
+   steps, one can gate it and keep the system running. Consider this
+   simplified suspend example:
+
+   While the system is operational, you would see something like
+
+      24MHz         32kHz
+       |
+      PLL1
+       \
+        \_ CPU Mux
+             |
+           [CPU]
+
+   When you are about to suspend, you switch the CPU Mux to the 32kHz
+   oscillator:
+
+      24Mhz         32kHz
+       |              |
+      PLL1            |
+                     /
+           CPU Mux _/
+             |
+           [CPU]
+
+    Finally you can gate the main oscillator
+
+                    32kHz
+                      |
+                      |
+                     /
+           CPU Mux _/
+             |
+           [CPU]
+
+Q: Were can I learn more about the sunxi clocks?
+
+A: The linux-sunxi wiki contains a page documenting the clock registers,
+   you can find it at
+
+        http://linux-sunxi.org/A10/CCM
+
+   The authoritative source for information at this time is the ccmu driver

+Allowing or denying all by writing 'a' to devices.allow or devices.deny will
+not be possible once the device cgroups has children.

+4.1 Hierarchy (internal implementation)
+
+device cgroups is implemented internally using a behavior (ALLOW, DENY) and a
+list of exceptions.  The internal state is controlled using the same user
+interface to preserve compatibility with the previous whitelist-only
+implementation.  Removal or addition of exceptions that will reduce the access
+to devices will be propagated down the hierarchy.
+For every propagated exception, the effective rules will be re-evaluated based
+on current parent's access rules.

-11. TODO
+11. Memory Pressure
+
+The pressure level notifications can be used to monitor the memory
+allocation cost; based on the pressure, applications can implement
+different strategies of managing their memory resources. The pressure
+levels are defined as following:
+
+The "low" level means that the system is reclaiming memory for new
+allocations. Monitoring this reclaiming activity might be useful for
+maintaining cache level. Upon notification, the program (typically
+"Activity Manager") might analyze vmstat and act in advance (i.e.
+prematurely shutdown unimportant services).
+
+The "medium" level means that the system is experiencing medium memory
+pressure, the system might be making swap, paging out active file caches,
+etc. Upon this event applications may decide to further analyze
+vmstat/zoneinfo/memcg or internal memory usage statistics and free any
+resources that can be easily reconstructed or re-read from a disk.
+
+The "critical" level means that the system is actively thrashing, it is
+about to out of memory (OOM) or even the in-kernel OOM killer is on its
+way to trigger. Applications should do whatever they can to help the
+system. It might be too late to consult with vmstat or any other
+statistics, so it's advisable to take an immediate action.
+
+The events are propagated upward until the event is handled, i.e. the
+events are not pass-through. Here is what this means: for example you have
+three cgroups: A->B->C. Now you set up an event listener on cgroups A, B
+and C, and suppose group C experiences some pressure. In this situation,
+only group C will receive the notification, i.e. groups A and B will not
+receive it. This is done to avoid excessive "broadcasting" of messages,
+which disturbs the system and which is especially bad if we are low on
+memory or thrashing. So, organize the cgroups wisely, or propagate the
+events manually (or, ask us to implement the pass-through events,
+explaining why would you need them.)
+
+The file memory.pressure_level is only used to setup an eventfd. To
+register a notification, an application must:
+
+- create an eventfd using eventfd(2);
+- open memory.pressure_level;
+- write string like "<event_fd> <fd of memory.pressure_level> <level>"
+  to cgroup.event_control.
+
+Application will be notified through eventfd when memory pressure is at
+the specific level (or higher). Read/write operations to
+memory.pressure_level are no implemented.
+
+Test:
+
+   Here is a small script example that makes a new cgroup, sets up a
+   memory limit, sets up a notification in the cgroup and then makes child
+   cgroup experience a critical pressure:
+
+   # cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/
+   # mkdir foo
+   # cd foo
+   # cgroup_event_listener memory.pressure_level low &
+   # echo 8000000 > memory.limit_in_bytes
+   # echo 8000000 > memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
+   # echo $$ > tasks
+   # dd if=/dev/zero | read x
+
+   (Expect a bunch of notifications, and eventually, the oom-killer will
+   trigger.)

+Device Tree Clock bindings for arch-sunxi
+
+This binding uses the common clock binding[1].
+
+[1] Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/clock-bindings.txt
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : shall be one of the following:
+        "allwinner,sun4i-osc-clk" - for a gatable oscillator
+        "allwinner,sun4i-pll1-clk" - for the main PLL clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-cpu-clk" - for the CPU multiplexer clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-axi-clk" - for the AXI clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-axi-gates-clk" - for the AXI gates
+        "allwinner,sun4i-ahb-clk" - for the AHB clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-ahb-gates-clk" - for the AHB gates
+        "allwinner,sun4i-apb0-clk" - for the APB0 clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-apb0-gates-clk" - for the APB0 gates
+        "allwinner,sun4i-apb1-clk" - for the APB1 clock
+        "allwinner,sun4i-apb1-mux-clk" - for the APB1 clock muxing
+        "allwinner,sun4i-apb1-gates-clk" - for the APB1 gates
+
+Required properties for all clocks:
+- reg : shall be the control register address for the clock.
+- clocks : shall be the input parent clock(s) phandle for the clock
+- #clock-cells : from common clock binding; shall be set to 0 except for
+        "allwinner,sun4i-*-gates-clk" where it shall be set to 1
+
+Additionally, "allwinner,sun4i-*-gates-clk" clocks require:
+- clock-output-names : the corresponding gate names that the clock controls
+
+For example:
+
+osc24M: osc24M@01c20050 {
+        #clock-cells = <0>;
+        compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-osc-clk";
+        reg = <0x01c20050 0x4>;
+        clocks = <&osc24M_fixed>;
+};
+
+pll1: pll1@01c20000 {
+        #clock-cells = <0>;
+        compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-pll1-clk";
+        reg = <0x01c20000 0x4>;
+        clocks = <&osc24M>;
+};
+
+cpu: cpu@01c20054 {
+        #clock-cells = <0>;
+        compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-cpu-clk";
+        reg = <0x01c20054 0x4>;
+        clocks = <&osc32k>, <&osc24M>, <&pll1>;
+};
+
+
+
+Gate clock outputs
+
+The "allwinner,sun4i-*-gates-clk" clocks provide several gatable outputs;
+their corresponding offsets as present on sun4i are listed below. Note that
+some of these gates are not present on sun5i.

+Sources of IIO channels can be represented by any node in the device
+tree. Those nodes are designated as IIO providers. IIO consumer
+nodes use a phandle and IIO specifier pair to connect IIO provider
+outputs to IIO inputs. Similar to the gpio specifiers, an IIO
+specifier is an array of one or more cells identifying the IIO
+output on a device. The length of an IIO specifier is defined by the
+value of a #io-channel-cells property in the IIO provider node.

+[1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-iio&m=135902119507483&w=2

+==IIO providers==
+
+Required properties:
+#io-channel-cells: Number of cells in an IIO specifier; Typically 0 for nodes
+                   with a single IIO output and 1 for nodes with multiple
+                   IIO outputs.

+Example for a simple configuration with no trigger:
+
+        adc: voltage-sensor@35 {

+
+Required properties:
+io-channels:    List of phandle and IIO specifier pairs, one pair
+                for each IIO input to the device. Note: if the
+                IIO provider specifies '0' for #io-channel-cells,
+                then only the phandle portion of the pair will appear.
+
+Optional properties:
+io-channel-names:
+                List of IIO input name strings sorted in the same
+                order as the io-channels property. Consumers drivers
+                will use io-channel-names to match IIO input names
+                with IIO specifiers.
+io-channel-ranges:
+                Empty property indicating that child nodes can inherit named
+                IIO channels from this node. Useful for bus nodes to provide
+                and IIO channel to their children.
+
+For example:
+
+        device {
+                io-channels = <&adc 1>, <&ref 0>;
+                io-channel-names = "vcc", "vdd";
+        };
+
+This represents a device with two IIO inputs, named "vcc" and "vdd".
+The vcc channel is connected to output 1 of the &adc device, and the
+vdd channel is connected to output 0 of the &ref device.

+  (a) "fsl,imx27-vpu" for CodaDx6 present in i.MX27
+  (b) "fsl,imx53-vpu" for CODA7541 present in i.MX53
+  (c) "fsl,imx6q-vpu" for CODA960 present in i.MX6q
+- reg: should be register base and length as documented in the
+  SoC reference manual
+- interrupts : Should contain the VPU interrupt. For CODA960,
+  a second interrupt is needed for the MJPEG unit.
+- clocks : Should contain the ahb and per clocks, in the order
+  determined by the clock-names property.
+- clock-names : Should be "ahb", "per"
+- iram : phandle pointing to the SRAM device node

 Description

-The ADT7410 is a temperature sensor with rated temperature range of -55°C to
-+150°C. It has a high accuracy of +/-0.5°C and can be operated at a resolution
-of 13 bits (0.0625°C) or 16 bits (0.0078°C). The sensor provides an INT pin to
-indicate that a minimum or maximum temperature set point has been exceeded, as
-well as a critical temperature (CT) pin to indicate that the critical
-temperature set point has been exceeded. Both pins can be set up with a common
-hysteresis of 0°C - 15°C and a fault queue, ranging from 1 to 4 events. Both
-pins can individually set to be active-low or active-high, while the whole
-device can either run in comparator mode or interrupt mode. The ADT7410
-supports continous temperature sampling, as well as sampling one temperature
-value per second or even justget one sample on demand for power saving.
-Besides, it can completely power down its ADC, if power management is
-required.
-
-The ADT7420 is register compatible, the only differences being the package,
-a slightly narrower operating temperature range (-40°C to +150°C), and a
-better accuracy (0.25°C instead of 0.50°C.)

+Description
+-----------
+
+LM95234 is an 11-bit digital temperature sensor with a 2-wire System Management
+Bus (SMBus) interface and TrueTherm technology that can very accurately monitor
+the temperature of four remote diodes as well as its own temperature.
+The four remote diodes can be external devices such as microprocessors,
+graphics processors or diode-connected 2N3904s. The LM95234's TruTherm
+beta compensation technology allows sensing of 90 nm or 65 nm process
+thermal diodes accurately.
+
+All temperature values are given in millidegrees Celsius. Temperature
+is provided within a range of -127 to +255 degrees (+127.875 degrees for
+the internal sensor). Resolution depends on temperature input and range.
+
+Each sensor has its own maximum limit, but the hysteresis is common to all
+channels. The hysteresis is configurable with the tem1_max_hyst attribute and
+affects the hysteresis on all channels. The first two external sensors also
+have a critical limit.
+
+The lm95234 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values.
+It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact
+values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return
+'old' values.

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the Nuvoton NCT6775F, NCT6776F, and NCT6779D
+and compatible super I/O chips.
+
+The chips support up to 25 temperature monitoring sources. Up to 6 of those are
+direct temperature sensor inputs, the others are special sources such as PECI,
+PCH, and SMBUS. Depending on the chip type, 2 to 6 of the temperature sources
+can be monitored and compared against minimum, maximum, and critical
+temperatures. The driver reports up to 10 of the temperatures to the user.
+There are 4 to 5 fan rotation speed sensors, 8 to 15 analog voltage sensors,
+one VID, alarms with beep warnings (control unimplemented), and some automatic
+fan regulation strategies (plus manual fan control mode).
+
+The temperature sensor sources on all chips are configurable. The configured
+source for each of the temperature sensors is provided in tempX_label.
+
+Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is
+either 1 degC or 0.5 degC, depending on the temperature source and
+configuration. An alarm is triggered when the temperature gets higher than
+the high limit; it stays on until the temperature falls below the hysteresis
+value. Alarms are only supported for temp1 to temp6, depending on the chip type.
+
+Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
+triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. On
+NCT6775F, fan readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4, 8,
+16, 32, 64 or 128) to give the readings more range or accuracy; the other chips
+do not have a fan speed divider. The driver sets the most suitable fan divisor
+itself; specifically, it increases the divider value each time a fan speed
+reading returns an invalid value, and it reduces it if the fan speed reading
+is lower than optimal. Some fans might not be present because they share pins
+with other functions.
+
+Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts.
+An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum
+or maximum limit.
+
+The driver supports automatic fan control mode known as Thermal Cruise.
+In this mode, the chip attempts to keep the measured temperature in a
+predefined temperature range. If the temperature goes out of range, fan
+is driven slower/faster to reach the predefined range again.
+
+The mode works for fan1-fan5.
+
+sysfs attributes
+----------------
+
+pwm[1-5] - this file stores PWM duty cycle or DC value (fan speed) in range:
+           0 (lowest speed) to 255 (full)
+
+pwm[1-5]_enable - this file controls mode of fan/temperature control:
+        * 0 Fan control disabled (fans set to maximum speed)
+        * 1 Manual mode, write to pwm[0-5] any value 0-255
+        * 2 "Thermal Cruise" mode
+        * 3 "Fan Speed Cruise" mode
+        * 4 "Smart Fan III" mode (NCT6775F only)
+        * 5 "Smart Fan IV" mode
+
+pwm[1-5]_mode - controls if output is PWM or DC level
+        * 0 DC output
+        * 1 PWM output
+
+Common fan control attributes
+-----------------------------
+
+pwm[1-5]_temp_sel       Temperature source. Value is temperature sensor index.
+                        For example, select '1' for temp1_input.
+pwm[1-5]_weight_temp_sel
+                        Secondary temperature source. Value is temperature
+                        sensor index. For example, select '1' for temp1_input.
+                        Set to 0 to disable secondary temperature control.
+
+If secondary temperature functionality is enabled, it is controlled with the
+following attributes.
+
+pwm[1-5]_weight_duty_step
+                        Duty step size.
+pwm[1-5]_weight_temp_step
+                        Temperature step size. With each step over
+                        temp_step_base, the value of weight_duty_step is added
+                        to the current pwm value.
+pwm[1-5]_weight_temp_step_base
+                        Temperature at which secondary temperature control kicks
+                        in.
+pwm[1-5]_weight_temp_step_tol
+                        Temperature step tolerance.
+
+Thermal Cruise mode (2)
+-----------------------
+
+If the temperature is in the range defined by:
+
+pwm[1-5]_target_temp    Target temperature, unit millidegree Celsius
+                        (range 0 - 127000)
+pwm[1-5]_temp_tolerance
+                        Target temperature tolerance, unit millidegree Celsius
+
+there are no changes to fan speed. Once the temperature leaves the interval, fan
+speed increases (if temperature is higher that desired) or decreases (if
+temperature is lower than desired), using the following limits and time
+intervals.
+
+pwm[1-5]_start          fan pwm start value (range 1 - 255), to start fan
+                        when the temperature is above defined range.
+pwm[1-5]_floor          lowest fan pwm (range 0 - 255) if temperature is below
+                        the defined range. If set to 0, the fan is expected to
+                        stop if the temperature is below the defined range.
+pwm[1-5]_step_up_time   milliseconds before fan speed is increased
+pwm[1-5]_step_down_time milliseconds before fan speed is decreased
+pwm[1-5]_stop_time      how many milliseconds must elapse to switch
+                        corresponding fan off (when the temperature was below
+                        defined range).
+
+Speed Cruise mode (3)
+---------------------
+
+This modes tries to keep the fan speed constant.
+
+fan[1-5]_target         Target fan speed
+fan[1-5]_tolerance
+                        Target speed tolerance
+
+
+Untested; use at your own risk.
+
+Smart Fan IV mode (5)
+---------------------
+
+This mode offers multiple slopes to control the fan speed. The slopes can be
+controlled by setting the pwm and temperature attributes. When the temperature
+rises, the chip will calculate the DC/PWM output based on the current slope.
+There are up to seven data points depending on the chip type. Subsequent data
+points should be set to higher temperatures and higher pwm values to achieve
+higher fan speeds with increasing temperature. The last data point reflects
+critical temperature mode, in which the fans should run at full speed.
+
+pwm[1-5]_auto_point[1-7]_pwm
+                        pwm value to be set if temperature reaches matching
+                        temperature range.
+pwm[1-5]_auto_point[1-7]_temp
+                        Temperature over which the matching pwm is enabled.
+pwm[1-5]_temp_tolerance
+                        Temperature tolerance, unit millidegree Celsius
+pwm[1-5]_crit_temp_tolerance
+                        Temperature tolerance for critical temperature,
+                        unit millidegree Celsius
+
+pwm[1-5]_step_up_time   milliseconds before fan speed is increased
+pwm[1-5]_step_down_time milliseconds before fan speed is decreased
+
+Usage Notes
+-----------
+
+On various ASUS boards with NCT6776F, it appears that CPUTIN is not really
+connected to anything and floats, or that it is connected to some non-standard
+temperature measurement device. As a result, the temperature reported on CPUTIN
+will not reflect a usable value. It often reports unreasonably high
+temperatures, and in some cases the reported temperature declines if the actual
+temperature increases (similar to the raw PECI temperature value - see PECI
+specification for details). CPUTIN should therefore be be ignored on ASUS
+boards. The CPU temperature on ASUS boards is reported from PECI 0.

+Currently the ALPS touchpad driver supports five protocol versions in use by
+ALPS touchpads, called versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
+
+Since roughly mid-2010 several new ALPS touchpads have been released and
+integrated into a variety of laptops and netbooks.  These new touchpads
+have enough behavior differences that the alps_model_data definition
+table, describing the properties of the different versions, is no longer
+adequate.  The design choices were to re-define the alps_model_data
+table, with the risk of regression testing existing devices, or isolate
+the new devices outside of the alps_model_data table.  The latter design
+choice was made.  The new touchpad signatures are named: "Rushmore",
+"Pinnacle", and "Dolphin", which you will see in the alps.c code.
+For the purposes of this document, this group of ALPS touchpads will
+generically be called "new ALPS touchpads".
+
+We experimented with probing the ACPI interface _HID (Hardware ID)/_CID
+(Compatibility ID) definition as a way to uniquely identify the
+different ALPS variants but there did not appear to be a 1:1 mapping.
+In fact, it appeared to be an m:n mapping between the _HID and actual
+hardware type.

+Intel(R) Management Engine (ME) Client bus API
+===============================================
+
+
+Rationale
+=========
+MEI misc character device is useful for dedicated applications to send and receive
+data to the many FW appliance found in Intel's ME from the user space.
+However for some of the ME functionalities it make sense to leverage existing software
+stack and expose them through existing kernel subsystems.
+
+In order to plug seamlessly into the kernel device driver model we add kernel virtual
+bus abstraction on top of the MEI driver. This allows implementing linux kernel drivers
+for the various MEI features as a stand alone entities found in their respective subsystem.
+Existing device drivers can even potentially be re-used by adding an MEI CL bus layer to
+the existing code.
+
+
+MEI CL bus API
+===========
+A driver implementation for an MEI Client is very similar to existing bus
+based device drivers. The driver registers itself as an MEI CL bus driver through
+the mei_cl_driver structure:
+
+struct mei_cl_driver {
+        struct device_driver driver;
+        const char *name;
+
+        const struct mei_cl_device_id *id_table;
+
+        int (*probe)(struct mei_cl_device *dev, const struct mei_cl_id *id);
+        int (*remove)(struct mei_cl_device *dev);
+};
+
+struct mei_cl_id {
+        char name[MEI_NAME_SIZE];
+        kernel_ulong_t driver_info;
+};
+
+The mei_cl_id structure allows the driver to bind itself against a device name.
+
+To actually register a driver on the ME Client bus one must call the mei_cl_add_driver()
+API. This is typically called at module init time.
+
+Once registered on the ME Client bus, a driver will typically try to do some I/O on
+this bus and this should be done through the mei_cl_send() and mei_cl_recv()
+routines. The latter is synchronous (blocks and sleeps until data shows up).
+In order for drivers to be notified of pending events waiting for them (e.g.
+an Rx event) they can register an event handler through the
+mei_cl_register_event_cb() routine. Currently only the MEI_EVENT_RX event
+will trigger an event handler call and the driver implementation is supposed
+to call mei_recv() from the event handler in order to fetch the pending
+received buffers.
+
+
+Example
+=======
+As a theoretical example let's pretend the ME comes with a "contact" NFC IP.
+The driver init and exit routines for this device would look like:
+
+#define CONTACT_DRIVER_NAME "contact"
+
+static struct mei_cl_device_id contact_mei_cl_tbl[] = {
+        { CONTACT_DRIVER_NAME, },
+
+        /* required last entry */
+        { }
+};
+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(mei_cl, contact_mei_cl_tbl);
+
+static struct mei_cl_driver contact_driver = {
+       .id_table = contact_mei_tbl,
+       .name = CONTACT_DRIVER_NAME,
+
+       .probe = contact_probe,
+       .remove = contact_remove,
+};
+
+static int contact_init(void)
+{
+        int r;
+
+        r = mei_cl_driver_register(&contact_driver);
+        if (r) {
+                pr_err(CONTACT_DRIVER_NAME ": driver registration failed\n");
+                return r;
+        }
+
+        return 0;
+}
+
+static void __exit contact_exit(void)
+{
+        mei_cl_driver_unregister(&contact_driver);
+}
+
+module_init(contact_init);
+module_exit(contact_exit);
+
+And the driver's simplified probe routine would look like that:
+
+int contact_probe(struct mei_cl_device *dev, struct mei_cl_device_id *id)
+{
+        struct contact_driver *contact;
+
+        [...]
+        mei_cl_enable_device(dev);
+
+        mei_cl_register_event_cb(dev, contact_event_cb, contact);
+
+        return 0;
+ }
+
+In the probe routine the driver first enable the MEI device and then registers
+an ME bus event handler which is as close as it can get to registering a
+threaded IRQ handler.
+The handler implementation will typically call some I/O routine depending on
+the pending events:
+
+#define MAX_NFC_PAYLOAD 128
+
+static void contact_event_cb(struct mei_cl_device *dev, u32 events,
+                             void *context)
+{
+        struct contact_driver *contact = context;
+
+        if (events & BIT(MEI_EVENT_RX)) {
+                u8 payload[MAX_NFC_PAYLOAD];
+                int payload_size;
+
+                payload_size = mei_recv(dev, payload, MAX_NFC_PAYLOAD);
+                if (payload_size <= 0)
+                        return;
+
+                /* Hook to the NFC subsystem */
+                nfc_hci_recv_frame(contact->hdev, payload, payload_size);
+        }
+}

+GPIO mode pitfalls
+==================
+
+Sometime the developer may be confused by a datasheet talking about a pin
+being possible to set into "GPIO mode". It appears that what hardware
+engineers mean with "GPIO mode" is not necessarily the use case that is
+implied in the kernel interface <linux/gpio.h>: a pin that you grab from
+kernel code and then either listen for input or drive high/low to
+assert/deassert some external line.
+
+Rather hardware engineers think that "GPIO mode" means that you can
+software-control a few electrical properties of the pin that you would
+not be able to control if the pin was in some other mode, such as muxed in
+for a device.
+
+Example: a pin is usually muxed in to be used as a UART TX line. But during
+system sleep, we need to put this pin into "GPIO mode" and ground it.
+
+If you make a 1-to-1 map to the GPIO subsystem for this pin, you may start
+to think that you need to come up with something real complex, that the
+pin shall be used for UART TX and GPIO at the same time, that you will grab
+a pin control handle and set it to a certain state to enable UART TX to be
+muxed in, then twist it over to GPIO mode and use gpio_direction_output()
+to drive it low during sleep, then mux it over to UART TX again when you
+wake up and maybe even gpio_request/gpio_free as part of this cycle. This
+all gets very complicated.
+
+The solution is to not think that what the datasheet calls "GPIO mode"
+has to be handled by the <linux/gpio.h> interface. Instead view this as
+a certain pin config setting. Look in e.g. <linux/pinctrl/pinconf-generic.h>
+and you find this in the documentation:
+
+  PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT: this will configure the pin in output, use argument
+     1 to indicate high level, argument 0 to indicate low level.
+
+So it is perfectly possible to push a pin into "GPIO mode" and drive the
+line low as part of the usual pin control map. So for example your UART
+driver may look like this:
+
+#include <linux/pinctrl/consumer.h>
+
+struct pinctrl          *pinctrl;
+struct pinctrl_state    *pins_default;
+struct pinctrl_state    *pins_sleep;
+
+pins_default = pinctrl_lookup_state(uap->pinctrl, PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT);
+pins_sleep = pinctrl_lookup_state(uap->pinctrl, PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP);
+
+/* Normal mode */
+retval = pinctrl_select_state(pinctrl, pins_default);
+/* Sleep mode */
+retval = pinctrl_select_state(pinctrl, pins_sleep);
+
+And your machine configuration may look like this:
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+static unsigned long uart_default_mode[] = {
+    PIN_CONF_PACKED(PIN_CONFIG_DRIVE_PUSH_PULL, 0),
+};
+
+static unsigned long uart_sleep_mode[] = {
+    PIN_CONF_PACKED(PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT, 0),
+};
+
+static struct pinctrl_map __initdata pinmap[] = {
+    PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo",
+                      "u0_group", "u0"),
+    PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo",
+                        "UART_TX_PIN", uart_default_mode),
+    PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP, "pinctrl-foo",
+                      "u0_group", "gpio-mode"),
+    PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP, "pinctrl-foo",
+                        "UART_TX_PIN", uart_sleep_mode),
+};
+
+foo_init(void) {
+    pinctrl_register_mappings(pinmap, ARRAY_SIZE(pinmap));
+}
+
+Here the pins we want to control are in the "u0_group" and there is some
+function called "u0" that can be enabled on this group of pins, and then
+everything is UART business as usual. But there is also some function
+named "gpio-mode" that can be mapped onto the same pins to move them into
+GPIO mode.
+
+This will give the desired effect without any bogus interaction with the
+GPIO subsystem. It is just an electrical configuration used by that device
+when going to sleep, it might imply that the pin is set into something the
+datasheet calls "GPIO mode" but that is not the point: it is still used
+by that UART device to control the pins that pertain to that very UART
+driver, putting them into modes needed by the UART. GPIO in the Linux
+kernel sense are just some 1-bit line, and is a different use case.
+
+How the registers are poked to attain the push/pull and output low
+configuration and the muxing of the "u0" or "gpio-mode" group onto these
+pins is a question for the driver.
+
+Some datasheets will be more helpful and refer to the "GPIO mode" as
+"low power mode" rather than anything to do with GPIO. This often means
+the same thing electrically speaking, but in this latter case the
+software engineers will usually quickly identify that this is some
+specific muxing/configuration rather than anything related to the GPIO
+API.

+this_cpu operations
+-------------------
+
+this_cpu operations are a way of optimizing access to per cpu
+variables associated with the *currently* executing processor through
+the use of segment registers (or a dedicated register where the cpu
+permanently stored the beginning of the per cpu area for a specific
+processor).
+
+The this_cpu operations add a per cpu variable offset to the processor
+specific percpu base and encode that operation in the instruction
+operating on the per cpu variable.
+
+This means there are no atomicity issues between the calculation of
+the offset and the operation on the data. Therefore it is not
+necessary to disable preempt or interrupts to ensure that the
+processor is not changed between the calculation of the address and
+the operation on the data.
+
+Read-modify-write operations are of particular interest. Frequently
+processors have special lower latency instructions that can operate
+without the typical synchronization overhead but still provide some
+sort of relaxed atomicity guarantee. The x86 for example can execute
+RMV (Read Modify Write) instructions like inc/dec/cmpxchg without the
+lock prefix and the associated latency penalty.
+
+Access to the variable without the lock prefix is not synchronized but
+synchronization is not necessary since we are dealing with per cpu
+data specific to the currently executing processor. Only the current
+processor should be accessing that variable and therefore there are no
+concurrency issues with other processors in the system.
+
+On x86 the fs: or the gs: segment registers contain the base of the
+per cpu area. It is then possible to simply use the segment override
+to relocate a per cpu relative address to the proper per cpu area for
+the processor. So the relocation to the per cpu base is encoded in the
+instruction via a segment register prefix.
+
+For example:
+
+        DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, x);
+        int z;
+
+        z = this_cpu_read(x);
+
+results in a single instruction
+
+        mov ax, gs:[x]
+
+instead of a sequence of calculation of the address and then a fetch
+from that address which occurs with the percpu operations. Before
+this_cpu_ops such sequence also required preempt disable/enable to
+prevent the kernel from moving the thread to a different processor
+while the calculation is performed.
+
+The main use of the this_cpu operations has been to optimize counter
+operations.
+
+        this_cpu_inc(x)
+
+results in the following single instruction (no lock prefix!)
+
+        inc gs:[x]
+
+instead of the following operations required if there is no segment
+register.
+
+        int *y;
+        int cpu;
+
+        cpu = get_cpu();
+        y = per_cpu_ptr(&x, cpu);
+        (*y)++;
+        put_cpu();
+
+Note that these operations can only be used on percpu data that is
+reserved for a specific processor. Without disabling preemption in the
+surrounding code this_cpu_inc() will only guarantee that one of the
+percpu counters is correctly incremented. However, there is no
+guarantee that the OS will not move the process directly before or
+after the this_cpu instruction is executed. In general this means that
+the value of the individual counters for each processor are
+meaningless. The sum of all the per cpu counters is the only value
+that is of interest.
+
+Per cpu variables are used for performance reasons. Bouncing cache
+lines can be avoided if multiple processors concurrently go through
+the same code paths.  Since each processor has its own per cpu
+variables no concurrent cacheline updates take place. The price that
+has to be paid for this optimization is the need to add up the per cpu
+counters when the value of the counter is needed.
+
+
+Special operations:
+-------------------
+
+        y = this_cpu_ptr(&x)
+
+Takes the offset of a per cpu variable (&x !) and returns the address
+of the per cpu variable that belongs to the currently executing
+processor.  this_cpu_ptr avoids multiple steps that the common
+get_cpu/put_cpu sequence requires. No processor number is
+available. Instead the offset of the local per cpu area is simply
+added to the percpu offset.
+
+
+
+Per cpu variables and offsets
+-----------------------------
+
+Per cpu variables have *offsets* to the beginning of the percpu
+area. They do not have addresses although they look like that in the
+code. Offsets cannot be directly dereferenced. The offset must be
+added to a base pointer of a percpu area of a processor in order to
+form a valid address.
+
+Therefore the use of x or &x outside of the context of per cpu
+operations is invalid and will generally be treated like a NULL
+pointer dereference.
+
+In the context of per cpu operations
+
+        x is a per cpu variable. Most this_cpu operations take a cpu
+        variable.
+
+        &x is the *offset* a per cpu variable. this_cpu_ptr() takes
+        the offset of a per cpu variable which makes this look a bit
+        strange.
+
+
+
+Operations on a field of a per cpu structure
+--------------------------------------------
+
+Let's say we have a percpu structure
+
+        struct s {
+                int n,m;
+        };
+
+        DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct s, p);
+
+
+Operations on these fields are straightforward
+
+        this_cpu_inc(p.m)
+
+        z = this_cpu_cmpxchg(p.m, 0, 1);
+
+
+If we have an offset to struct s:
+
+        struct s __percpu *ps = &p;
+
+        z = this_cpu_dec(ps->m);
+
+        z = this_cpu_inc_return(ps->n);
+
+
+The calculation of the pointer may require the use of this_cpu_ptr()
+if we do not make use of this_cpu ops later to manipulate fields:
+
+        struct s *pp;
+
+        pp = this_cpu_ptr(&p);
+
+        pp->m--;
+
+        z = pp->n++;
+
+
+Variants of this_cpu ops
+-------------------------
+
+this_cpu ops are interrupt safe. Some architecture do not support
+these per cpu local operations. In that case the operation must be
+replaced by code that disables interrupts, then does the operations
+that are guaranteed to be atomic and then reenable interrupts. Doing
+so is expensive. If there are other reasons why the scheduler cannot
+change the processor we are executing on then there is no reason to
+disable interrupts. For that purpose the __this_cpu operations are
+provided. For example.
+
+        __this_cpu_inc(x);
+
+Will increment x and will not fallback to code that disables
+interrupts on platforms that cannot accomplish atomicity through
+address relocation and a Read-Modify-Write operation in the same
+instruction.
+
+
+
+&this_cpu_ptr(pp)->n vs this_cpu_ptr(&pp->n)
+--------------------------------------------
+
+The first operation takes the offset and forms an address and then
+adds the offset of the n field.
+
+The second one first adds the two offsets and then does the
+relocation.  IMHO the second form looks cleaner and has an easier time
+with (). The second form also is consistent with the way
+this_cpu_read() and friends are used.

+
+        Whenever an event is recorded into the ring buffer, a

+        clock is very fast and strictly per cpu, but on some
+        systems it may not be monotonic with respect to other
+        CPUs. In other words, the local clocks may not be in sync
+        with local clocks on other CPUs.
+
+        Usual clocks for tracing:
+
+          # cat trace_clock
+          [local] global counter x86-tsc
+
+          local: Default clock, but may not be in sync across CPUs
+
+          global: This clock is in sync with all CPUs but may
+                  be a bit slower than the local clock.
+
+          counter: This is not a clock at all, but literally an atomic
+                   counter. It counts up one by one, but is in sync
+                   with all CPUs. This is useful when you need to
+                   know exactly the order events occurred with respect to
+                   each other on different CPUs.
+
+          uptime: This uses the jiffies counter and the time stamp
+                  is relative to the time since boot up.
+
+          perf: This makes ftrace use the same clock that perf uses.
+                Eventually perf will be able to read ftrace buffers
+                and this will help out in interleaving the data.

 between the time of recording the max latency and the time of

 The above is an example of the preemptoff trace with
-ftrace_enabled set. Here we see that interrupts were disabled
+function-trace set. Here we see that interrupts were not disabled
 the entire time. The irq_enter code lets us know that we entered
 an interrupt 'h'. Before that, the functions being traced still
 show that it is not in an interrupt, but we can see from the
 functions themselves that this is not the case.
 
-Notice that __do_softirq when called does not have a
-preempt_count. It may seem that we missed a preempt enabling.
-What really happened is that the preempt count is held on the
-thread's stack and we switched to the softirq stack (4K stacks
-in effect). The code does not copy the preempt count, but
-because interrupts are disabled, we do not need to worry about
-it. Having a tracer like this is good for letting people know
-what really happens inside the kernel.

+This is an interesting trace. It started with kworker running and
+scheduling out and ls taking over. But as soon as ls released the
+rq lock and enabled interrupts (but not preemption) an interrupt
+triggered. When the interrupt finished, it started running softirqs.
+But while the softirq was running, another interrupt triggered.
+When an interrupt is running inside a softirq, the annotation is 'H'.
 
 
 wakeup

+ran.

 not recorded because the tracer only records one worst case and
 tracing non-RT tasks that are unpredictable will overwrite the
-worst case latency of RT tasks.
+worst case latency of RT tasks (just run the normal wakeup
+tracer for a while to see that effect).
 
 Since this tracer only deals with RT tasks, we will run this
 slightly differently than we did with the previous tracers.
 Instead of performing an 'ls', we will run 'sleep 1' under
 'chrt' which changes the priority of the task.

-The interrupt went off while running ksoftirqd. This task runs
-at SCHED_OTHER. Why did not we see the 'N' set early? This may
-be a harmless bug with x86_32 and 4K stacks. On x86_32 with 4K
-stacks configured, the interrupt and softirq run with their own
-stack. Some information is held on the top of the task's stack
-(need_resched and preempt_count are both stored there). The
-setting of the NEED_RESCHED bit is done directly to the task's
-stack, but the reading of the NEED_RESCHED is done by looking at
-the current stack, which in this case is the stack for the hard
-interrupt. This hides the fact that NEED_RESCHED has been set.
-We do not see the 'N' until we switch back to the task's
-assigned stack.

+This isn't that big of a trace, even with function tracing enabled,
+so I included the entire trace.
+
+The interrupt went off while when the system was idle. Somewhere
+before task_woken_rt() was called, the NEED_RESCHED flag was set,
+this is indicated by the first occurrence of the 'N' flag.
+
+Latency tracing and events
+--------------------------
+As function tracing can induce a much larger latency, but without
+seeing what happens within the latency it is hard to know what
+caused it. There is a middle ground, and that is with enabling
+events.

+Instances
+---------
+In the debugfs tracing directory is a directory called "instances".
+This directory can have new directories created inside of it using
+mkdir, and removing directories with rmdir. The directory created
+with mkdir in this directory will already contain files and other
+directories after it is created.
+
+ # mkdir instances/foo
+ # ls instances/foo
+buffer_size_kb  buffer_total_size_kb  events  free_buffer  per_cpu
+set_event  snapshot  trace  trace_clock  trace_marker  trace_options
+trace_pipe  tracing_on
+
+As you can see, the new directory looks similar to the tracing directory
+itself. In fact, it is very similar, except that the buffer and
+events are agnostic from the main director, or from any other
+instances that are created.
+
+The files in the new directory work just like the files with the
+same name in the tracing directory except the buffer that is used
+is a separate and new buffer. The files affect that buffer but do not
+affect the main buffer with the exception of trace_options. Currently,
+the trace_options affect all instances and the top level buffer
+the same, but this may change in future releases. That is, options
+may become specific to the instance they reside in.
+
+Notice that none of the function tracer files are there, nor is
+current_tracer and available_tracers. This is because the buffers
+can currently only have events enabled for them.

+You can see that the trace of the top most trace buffer shows only
+the function tracing. The foo instance displays wakeups and task
+switches.
+
+To remove the instances, simply delete their directories:
+
+ # rmdir instances/foo
+ # rmdir instances/bar
+ # rmdir instances/zoot
+
+Note, if a process has a trace file open in one of the instance
+directories, the rmdir will fail with EBUSY.
+
+
+Stack trace
 -----------
+Since the kernel has a fixed sized stack, it is important not to
+waste it in functions. A kernel developer must be conscience of
+what they allocate on the stack. If they add too much, the system
+can be in danger of a stack overflow, and corruption will occur,
+usually leading to a system panic.
+
+There are some tools that check this, usually with interrupts
+periodically checking usage. But if you can perform a check
+at every function call that will become very useful. As ftrace provides
+a function tracer, it makes it convenient to check the stack size
+at every function call. This is enabled via the stack tracer.
+
+CONFIG_STACK_TRACER enables the ftrace stack tracing functionality.
+To enable it, write a '1' into /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled.
+
+ # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled
+
+You can also enable it from the kernel command line to trace
+the stack size of the kernel during boot up, by adding "stacktrace"
+to the kernel command line parameter.
+
+After running it for a few minutes, the output looks like:
+
+ # cat stack_max_size
+2928

+
+Note, if -mfentry is being used by gcc, functions get traced before
+they set up the stack frame. This means that leaf level functions
+are not tested by the stack tracer when -mfentry is used.
+
+Currently, -mfentry is used by gcc 4.6.0 and above on x86 only.

 Usage examples

-To add a probe as a new event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
-as below.
+ * Add a probe as a new uprobe event, write a new definition to uprobe_events
+as below: (sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash)
+
+    echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ * Add a probe as a new uretprobe event:
+
+    echo 'r: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+
+ * Unset registered event:
 
-  echo 'p: /bin/bash:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+    echo '-:bash_0x4245c0' >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
 
- This sets a uprobe at an offset of 0x4245c0 in the executable /bin/bash
+ * Print out the events that are registered:
 
-  echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
+    cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
 
- This clears all probe points.
