7 (wireless) USB devices.

9 The sequence of operations should be:
10
11 1. Device is plugged in.
12
13 2. The connection manager (CM) sees a device with CBA capability.
14 (the wusb_chid etc. files in /sys/devices/blah/OURDEVICE).
15
16 3. The CM writes the host name, supported band groups,
17 and the CHID (host ID) into the wusb_host_name,
18 wusb_host_band_groups and wusb_chid files. These
19 get sent to the device and the CDID (if any) for
20 this host is requested.
21
22 4. The CM can verify that the device's supported band
23 groups (wusb_device_band_groups) are compatible
24 with the host.
25
26 5. The CM reads the wusb_cdid file.
27
28 6. The CM looks it up its database.
29
30 - If it has a matching CHID,CDID entry, the device
31 has been authorized before and nothing further
32 needs to be done.
33
34 - If the CDID is zero (or the CM doesn't find a
35 matching CDID in its database), the device is
36 assumed to be not known. The CM may associate
37 the host with device by: writing a randomly
38 generated CDID to wusb_cdid and then a random CK
39 to wusb_ck (this uploads the new CC to the
40 device).
41
42 CMD may choose to prompt the user before
43 associating with a new device.
44
45 7. Device is unplugged.

1 ACPI Debug Output
2
3
4The ACPI CA, the Linux ACPI core, and some ACPI drivers can generate debug
5output. This document describes how to use this facility.
6
7Compile-time configuration
8--------------------------
9
10ACPI debug output is globally enabled by CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG. If this config
11option is turned off, the debug messages are not even built into the
12kernel.
13
14Boot- and run-time configuration
15--------------------------------
16
17When CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y, you can select the component and level of messages
18you're interested in. At boot-time, use the acpi.debug_layer and
19acpi.debug_level kernel command line options. After boot, you can use the
20debug_layer and debug_level files in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ to control
21the debug messages.
22
23debug_layer (component)
24-----------------------
25
26The "debug_layer" is a mask that selects components of interest, e.g., a
27specific driver or part of the ACPI interpreter. To build the debug_layer
28bitmask, look for the "#define _COMPONENT" in an ACPI source file.
29
30You can set the debug_layer mask at boot-time using the acpi.debug_layer
31command line argument, and you can change it after boot by writing values
32to /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer.
33
34The possible components are defined in include/acpi/acoutput.h and
35include/acpi/acpi_drivers.h. Reading /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer
36shows the supported mask values, currently these:
37
38 ACPI_UTILITIES 0x00000001
39 ACPI_HARDWARE 0x00000002
40 ACPI_EVENTS 0x00000004

63 ACPI_MEMORY_DEVICE_COMPONENT 0x08000000
64 ACPI_VIDEO_COMPONENT 0x10000000
65 ACPI_PROCESSOR_COMPONENT 0x20000000
66
67debug_level
68-----------
69
70The "debug_level" is a mask that selects different types of messages, e.g.,
71those related to initialization, method execution, informational messages, etc.
72To build debug_level, look at the level specified in an ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT()
73statement.
74
75The ACPI interpreter uses several different levels, but the Linux
76ACPI core and ACPI drivers generally only use ACPI_LV_INFO.
77
78You can set the debug_level mask at boot-time using the acpi.debug_level
79command line argument, and you can change it after boot by writing values
80to /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level.
81
82The possible levels are defined in include/acpi/acoutput.h. Reading
83/sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level shows the supported mask values,
84currently these:
85
86 ACPI_LV_INIT 0x00000001
87 ACPI_LV_DEBUG_OBJECT 0x00000002
88 ACPI_LV_INFO 0x00000004
89 ACPI_LV_INIT_NAMES 0x00000020
90 ACPI_LV_PARSE 0x00000040
91 ACPI_LV_LOAD 0x00000080
92 ACPI_LV_DISPATCH 0x00000100
93 ACPI_LV_EXEC 0x00000200
94 ACPI_LV_NAMES 0x00000400
95 ACPI_LV_OPREGION 0x00000800
96 ACPI_LV_BFIELD 0x00001000
97 ACPI_LV_TABLES 0x00002000
98 ACPI_LV_VALUES 0x00004000
99 ACPI_LV_OBJECTS 0x00008000
100 ACPI_LV_RESOURCES 0x00010000
101 ACPI_LV_USER_REQUESTS 0x00020000
102 ACPI_LV_PACKAGE 0x00040000
103 ACPI_LV_ALLOCATIONS 0x00100000
104 ACPI_LV_FUNCTIONS 0x00200000
105 ACPI_LV_OPTIMIZATIONS 0x00400000
106 ACPI_LV_MUTEX 0x01000000
107 ACPI_LV_THREADS 0x02000000
108 ACPI_LV_IO 0x04000000
109 ACPI_LV_INTERRUPTS 0x08000000
110 ACPI_LV_AML_DISASSEMBLE 0x10000000
111 ACPI_LV_VERBOSE_INFO 0x20000000
112 ACPI_LV_FULL_TABLES 0x40000000
113 ACPI_LV_EVENTS 0x80000000
114
115Examples
116--------
117
118For example, drivers/acpi/bus.c contains this:
119
120 #define _COMPONENT ACPI_BUS_COMPONENT
121 ...
122 ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT((ACPI_DB_INFO, "Device insertion detected\n"));
123
124To turn on this message, set the ACPI_BUS_COMPONENT bit in acpi.debug_layer
125and the ACPI_LV_INFO bit in acpi.debug_level. (The ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT
126statement uses ACPI_DB_INFO, which is macro based on the ACPI_LV_INFO
127definition.)
128
129Enable all AML "Debug" output (stores to the Debug object while interpreting
130AML) during boot:
131
132 acpi.debug_layer=0xffffffff acpi.debug_level=0x2
133
134Enable PCI and PCI interrupt routing debug messages:
135
136 acpi.debug_layer=0x400000 acpi.debug_level=0x4
137
138Enable all ACPI hardware-related messages:
139
140 acpi.debug_layer=0x2 acpi.debug_level=0xffffffff
141
142Enable all ACPI_DB_INFO messages after boot:
143
144 # echo 0x4 > /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_level
145
146Show all valid component values:
147
148 # cat /sys/module/acpi/parameters/debug_layer

3The initial design is to go in your car, but you can use it at home, on a
4boat... almost anywhere. The principle is to store CD-quality music using
5MPEG technology onto a hard disk in the unit, and use the power of the
6embedded computer to serve up the music you want.

8The Kenwood KCA-R6A remote control generates a sequence like the following:
9
10Go low for approx 16T (Around 9000us)
11Go high for approx 8T (Around 4000us)
12Go low for less than 2T (Around 750us)
13
14For each of the 32 bits
15 Go high for more than 2T (Around 1500us) == 1
16 Go high for less than T (Around 400us) == 0
17 Go low for less than 2T (Around 750us)
18
19Rather than repeat a signal when the button is held down certain buttons
20generate the following code to indicate repetition.
21
22Go low for approx 16T
23Go high for approx 4T
24Go low for less than 2T
25
26(By removing the <2T from the start of the sequence and placing at the end
27 it can be considered a stop bit but I found it easier to deal with it at
28 the start).
29
30The 32 bits are encoded as XxYy where x and y are the actual data values
31while X and Y are the logical inverses of the associated data values. Using
32LSB first yields sensible codes for the numbers.
33
34All codes are of the form b9xx
35
36The numeric keys generate the code 0x where x is the number pressed.

21This driver implements the support for Linux of Silicon Labs (Silabs)
22C2 Interface used for in-system programming of micro controllers.
23
24By using this driver you can reprogram the in-system flash without EC2
25or EC3 debug adapter. This solution is also useful in those systems
26where the micro controller is connected via special GPIOs pins.

40however it implements a two wire serial communication protocol (bit
41banging) designed to enable in-system programming, debugging, and
42boundary-scan testing on low pin-count Silicon Labs devices. Currently
43this code supports only flash programming but extensions are easy to
44add.

46Using the driver
47----------------
48
49Once the driver is loaded you can use sysfs support to get C2port's
50info or read/write in-system flash.
51
52# ls /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/
53access flash_block_size flash_erase rev_id
54dev_id flash_blocks_num flash_size subsystem/
55flash_access flash_data reset uevent
56
57Initially the C2port access is disabled since you hardware may have
58such lines multiplexed with other devices so, to get access to the
59C2port, you need the command:
60
61# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/access
62
63after that you should read the device ID and revision ID of the
64connected micro controller:
65
66# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/dev_id
678
68# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/rev_id
691
70
71However, for security reasons, the in-system flash access in not
72enabled yet, to do so you need the command:
73
74# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_access
75
76After that you can read the whole flash:
77
78# cat /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_data > image
79
80erase it:
81
82# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_erase
83
84and write it:
85
86# cat image > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/flash_data
87
88after writing you have to reset the device to execute the new code:
89
90# echo 1 > /sys/class/c2port/c2port0/reset

217Gmail (Web GUI)
218
219If you just have to use Gmail to send patches, it CAN be made to work. It
220requires a bit of external help, though.
221
222The first problem is that Gmail converts tabs to spaces. This will
223totally break your patches. To prevent this, you have to use a different
224editor. There is a firefox extension called "ViewSourceWith"
225(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/394) which allows you to
226edit any text box in the editor of your choice. Configure it to launch
227your favorite editor. When you want to send a patch, use this technique.
228Once you have crafted your messsage + patch, save and exit the editor,
229which should reload the Gmail edit box. GMAIL WILL PRESERVE THE TABS.
230Hoorah. Apparently you can cut-n-paste literal tabs, but Gmail will
231convert those to spaces upon sending!
232
233The second problem is that Gmail converts tabs to spaces on replies. If
234you reply to a patch, don't expect to be able to apply it as a patch.
235
236The last problem is that Gmail will base64-encode any message that has a
237non-ASCII character. That includes things like European names. Be aware.
238
239Gmail is not convenient for lkml patches, but CAN be made to work.

2507This configuration option sets the maximum number of "watches" that are
2508allowed for each user.
2509Each "watch" costs roughly 90 bytes on a 32bit kernel, and roughly 160 bytes
2510on a 64bit one.

1254As mentioned above, when dynamic ftrace is configured in, a kernel
1255thread wakes up once a second and checks to see if there are mcount
1256calls that need to be converted into nops. If there are not any, then
1257it simply goes back to sleep. But if there are some, it will call
1258kstop_machine to convert the calls to nops.
1259
1260There may be a case in which you do not want this added latency.
1261Perhaps you are doing some audio recording and this activity might
1262cause skips in the playback. There is an interface to disable
1263and enable the "ftraced" kernel thread.
1264

1267This will disable the calling of kstop_machine to update the
1268mcount calls to nops. Remember that there is a large overhead
1269to calling mcount. Without this kernel thread, that overhead will
1270exist.
1271
1272If there are recorded calls to mcount, any write to the ftraced_enabled
1273file will cause the kstop_machine to run. This means that a
1274user can manually perform the updates when they want to by simply
1275echoing a '0' into the ftraced_enabled file.
1276
1277The updates are also done at the beginning of enabling a tracer
1278that uses ftrace function recording.

12Description
13-----------
14
15This driver implements support for the Analog Devices ADT7462 chip family.
16
17This chip is a bit of a beast. It has 8 counters for measuring fan speed. It
18can also measure 13 voltages or 4 temperatures, or various combinations of the
19two. See the chip documentation for more details about the exact set of
20configurations. This driver does not allow one to configure the chip; that is
21left to the system designer.
22
23A sophisticated control system for the PWM outputs is designed into the ADT7462
24that allows fan speed to be adjusted automatically based on any of the three
25temperature sensors. Each PWM output is individually adjustable and
26programmable. Once configured, the ADT7462 will adjust the PWM outputs in
27response to the measured temperatures without further host intervention. This
28feature can also be disabled for manual control of the PWM's.
29
30Each of the measured inputs (voltage, temperature, fan speed) has
31corresponding high/low limit values. The ADT7462 will signal an ALARM if
32any measured value exceeds either limit.
33
34The ADT7462 samples all inputs continuously. The driver will not read
35the registers more often than once every other second. Further,
36configuration data is only read once per minute.
37
38Special Features
39----------------
40
41The ADT7462 have a 10-bit ADC and can therefore measure temperatures
42with 0.25 degC resolution.
43
44The Analog Devices datasheet is very detailed and describes a procedure for
45determining an optimal configuration for the automatic PWM control.
46
47The driver will report sensor labels when it is able to determine that
48information from the configuration registers.
49
50Configuration Notes
51-------------------
52
53Besides standard interfaces driver adds the following:
54
55* PWM Control
56
57* pwm#_auto_point1_pwm and temp#_auto_point1_temp and
58* pwm#_auto_point2_pwm and temp#_auto_point2_temp -
59
60point1: Set the pwm speed at a lower temperature bound.
61point2: Set the pwm speed at a higher temperature bound.
62
63The ADT7462 will scale the pwm between the lower and higher pwm speed when
64the temperature is between the two temperature boundaries. PWM values range
65from 0 (off) to 255 (full speed). Fan speed will be set to maximum when the
66temperature sensor associated with the PWM control exceeds temp#_max.

13Description
14-----------
15
16This driver provides support for the accelerometer found in various HP laptops
17sporting the feature officially called "HP Mobile Data Protection System 3D" or
18"HP 3D DriveGuard". It detect automatically laptops with this sensor. Known models
19(for now the HP 2133, nc6420, nc2510, nc8510, nc84x0, nw9440 and nx9420) will
20have their axis automatically oriented on standard way (eg: you can directly
21play neverball). The accelerometer data is readable via
22/sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d.
23
24Sysfs attributes under /sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d/:
25position - 3D position that the accelerometer reports. Format: "(x,y,z)"
26calibrate - read: values (x, y, z) that are used as the base for input class device operation.
27 write: forces the base to be recalibrated with the current position.
28rate - reports the sampling rate of the accelerometer device in HZ
29
30This driver also provides an absolute input class device, allowing
31the laptop to act as a pinball machine-esque joystick.
32
33Axes orientation
34----------------
35
36For better compatibility between the various laptops. The values reported by
37the accelerometer are converted into a "standard" organisation of the axes
38(aka "can play neverball out of the box"):
39 * When the laptop is horizontal the position reported is about 0 for X and Y
40and a positive value for Z
41 * If the left side is elevated, X increases (becomes positive)
42 * If the front side (where the touchpad is) is elevated, Y decreases (becomes negative)
43 * If the laptop is put upside-down, Z becomes negative
44
45If your laptop model is not recognized (cf "dmesg"), you can send an email to the
46authors to add it to the database. When reporting a new laptop, please include
47the output of "dmidecode" plus the value of /sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d/position
48in these four cases.

1Revision 7, 2007-04-19
2Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

5This is a guide on how to convert I2C chip drivers from Linux 2.4 to
6Linux 2.6. I have been using existing drivers (lm75, lm78) as examples.
7Then I converted a driver myself (lm83) and updated this document.
8Note that this guide is strongly oriented towards hardware monitoring
9drivers. Many points are still valid for other type of drivers, but
10others may be irrelevant.
11
12There are two sets of points below. The first set concerns technical
13changes. The second set concerns coding policy. Both are mandatory.
14
15Although reading this guide will help you porting drivers, I suggest
16you keep an eye on an already ported driver while porting your own
17driver. This will help you a lot understanding what this guide
18exactly means. Choose the chip driver that is the more similar to
19yours for best results.
20
21Technical changes:
22
23* [Driver type] Any driver that was relying on i2c-isa has to be
24 converted to a proper isa, platform or pci driver. This is not
25 covered by this guide.
26
27* [Includes] Get rid of "version.h" and <linux/i2c-proc.h>.
28 Includes typically look like that:
29 #include <linux/module.h>
30 #include <linux/init.h>
31 #include <linux/slab.h>
32 #include <linux/jiffies.h>
33 #include <linux/i2c.h>
34 #include <linux/hwmon.h> /* for hardware monitoring drivers */
35 #include <linux/hwmon-sysfs.h>
36 #include <linux/hwmon-vid.h> /* if you need VRM support */
37 #include <linux/err.h> /* for class registration */
38 Please respect this inclusion order. Some extra headers may be
39 required for a given driver (e.g. "lm75.h").
40
41* [Addresses] SENSORS_I2C_END becomes I2C_CLIENT_END, ISA addresses
42 are no more handled by the i2c core. Address ranges are no more
43 supported either, define each individual address separately.
44 SENSORS_INSMOD_<n> becomes I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD_<n>.
45
46* [Client data] Get rid of sysctl_id. Try using standard names for
47 register values (for example, temp_os becomes temp_max). You're
48 still relatively free here, but you *have* to follow the standard
49 names for sysfs files (see the Sysctl section below).
50
51* [Function prototypes] The detect functions loses its flags
52 parameter. Sysctl (e.g. lm75_temp) and miscellaneous functions
53 are off the list of prototypes. This usually leaves five
54 prototypes:
55 static int lm75_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adapter);
56 static int lm75_detect(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, int address,
57 int kind);
58 static void lm75_init_client(struct i2c_client *client);
59 static int lm75_detach_client(struct i2c_client *client);
60 static struct lm75_data lm75_update_device(struct device *dev);
61
62* [Sysctl] All sysctl stuff is of course gone (defines, ctl_table
63 and functions). Instead, you have to define show and set functions for
64 each sysfs file. Only define set for writable values. Take a look at an
65 existing 2.6 driver for details (it87 for example). Don't forget
66 to define the attributes for each file (this is that step that
67 links callback functions). Use the file names specified in
68 Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for the individual files. Also
69 convert the units these files read and write to the specified ones.
70 If you need to add a new type of file, please discuss it on the
71 sensors mailing list <lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org> by providing a
72 patch to the Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface file.
73
74* [Attach] The attach function should make sure that the adapter's
75 class has I2C_CLASS_HWMON (or whatever class is suitable for your
76 driver), using the following construct:
77 if (!(adapter->class & I2C_CLASS_HWMON))
78 return 0;
79 Call i2c_probe() instead of i2c_detect().
80
81* [Detect] As mentioned earlier, the flags parameter is gone.
82 The type_name and client_name strings are replaced by a single
83 name string, which will be filled with a lowercase, short string.
84 The labels used for error paths are reduced to the number needed.
85 It is advised that the labels are given descriptive names such as
86 exit and exit_free. Don't forget to properly set err before
87 jumping to error labels. By the way, labels should be left-aligned.
88 Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc.
89 Use i2c_set_clientdata to set the client data (as opposed to
90 a direct access to client->data).
91 Use strlcpy instead of strcpy or snprintf to copy the client name.
92 Replace the sysctl directory registration by calls to
93 device_create_file. Move the driver initialization before any
94 sysfs file creation.
95 Register the client with the hwmon class (using hwmon_device_register)
96 if applicable.
97 Drop client->id.
98 Drop any 24RF08 corruption prevention you find, as this is now done
99 at the i2c-core level, and doing it twice voids it.
100 Don't add I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_USE to client->flags, it's the default now.
101
102* [Init] Limits must not be set by the driver (can be done later in
103 user-space). Chip should not be reset default (although a module
104 parameter may be used to force it), and initialization should be
105 limited to the strictly necessary steps.
106
107* [Detach] Remove the call to i2c_deregister_entry. Do not log an
108 error message if i2c_detach_client fails, as i2c-core will now do
109 it for you.
110 Unregister from the hwmon class if applicable.
111
112* [Update] The function prototype changed, it is now
113 passed a device structure, which you have to convert to a client
114 using to_i2c_client(dev). The update function should return a
115 pointer to the client data.
116 Don't access client->data directly, use i2c_get_clientdata(client)
117 instead.
118 Use time_after() instead of direct jiffies comparison.
119
120* [Interface] Make sure there is a MODULE_LICENSE() line, at the bottom
121 of the file (after MODULE_AUTHOR() and MODULE_DESCRIPTION(), in this
122 order).
123
124* [Driver] The flags field of the i2c_driver structure is gone.
125 I2C_DF_NOTIFY is now the default behavior.
126 The i2c_driver structure has a driver member, which is itself a
127 structure, those name member should be initialized to a driver name
128 string. i2c_driver itself has no name member anymore.
129
130* [Driver model] Instead of shutdown or reboot notifiers, provide a
131 shutdown() method in your driver.
132
133* [Power management] Use the driver model suspend() and resume()
134 callbacks instead of the obsolete pm_register() calls.
135
136Coding policy:
137
138* [Copyright] Use (C), not (c), for copyright.
139
140* [Debug/log] Get rid of #ifdef DEBUG/#endif constructs whenever you
141 can. Calls to printk for debugging purposes are replaced by calls to
142 dev_dbg where possible, else to pr_debug. Here is an example of how
143 to call it (taken from lm75_detect):
144 dev_dbg(&client->dev, "Starting lm75 update\n");
145 Replace other printk calls with the dev_info, dev_err or dev_warn
146 function, as appropriate.
147
148* [Constants] Constants defines (registers, conversions) should be
149 aligned. This greatly improves readability.
150 Alignments are achieved by the means of tabs, not spaces. Remember
151 that tabs are set to 8 in the Linux kernel code.
152
153* [Layout] Avoid extra empty lines between comments and what they
154 comment. Respect the coding style (see Documentation/CodingStyle),
155 in particular when it comes to placing curly braces.
156
157* [Comments] Make sure that no comment refers to a file that isn't
158 part of the Linux source tree (typically doc/chips/<chip name>),
159 and that remaining comments still match the code. Merging comment
160 lines when possible is encouraged.

259Legacy Driver Binding Model 231Initializing the driver
260--------------------------- 232=======================
233
234When the kernel is booted, or when your foo driver module is inserted,
235you have to do some initializing. Fortunately, just registering the
236driver module is usually enough.
261 237
262Most i2c devices can be present on several i2c addresses; for some this 238static int __init foo_init(void)
263is determined in hardware (by soldering some chip pins to Vcc or Ground), 239{
264for others this can be changed in software (by writing to specific client 240 return i2c_add_driver(&foo_driver);
265registers). Some devices are usually on a specific address, but not always; 241}
266and some are even more tricky. So you will probably need to scan several 242
267i2c addresses for your clients, and do some sort of detection to see 243static void __exit foo_cleanup(void)
268whether it is actually a device supported by your driver. 244{
245 i2c_del_driver(&foo_driver);
246}
247
248/* Substitute your own name and email address */
249MODULE_AUTHOR("Frodo Looijaard <frodol@dds.nl>"
250MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Driver for Barf Inc. Foo I2C devices");
269 251
270To give the user a maximum of possibilities, some default module parameters 252/* a few non-GPL license types are also allowed */
271are defined to help determine what addresses are scanned. Several macros 253MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
272are defined in i2c.h to help you support them, as well as a generic 254
273detection algorithm. 255module_init(foo_init);
274 256module_exit(foo_cleanup);
275You do not have to use this parameter interface; but don't try to use 257
276function i2c_probe() if you don't. 258Note that some functions are marked by `__init'. These functions can
277 259be removed after kernel booting (or module loading) is completed.
278 260Likewise, functions marked by `__exit' are dropped by the compiler when
279Probing classes (Legacy model) 261the code is built into the kernel, as they would never be called.
280------------------------------
281
282All parameters are given as lists of unsigned 16-bit integers. Lists are
283terminated by I2C_CLIENT_END.
284The following lists are used internally:
285
286 normal_i2c: filled in by the module writer.
287 A list of I2C addresses which should normally be examined.
288 probe: insmod parameter.
289 A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
290 the second is the address. These addresses are also probed, as if they
291 were in the 'normal' list.
292 ignore: insmod parameter.
293 A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
294 the second is the I2C address. These addresses are never probed.
295 This parameter overrules the 'normal_i2c' list only.
296 force: insmod parameter.
297 A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
298 the second is the I2C address. A device is blindly assumed to be on
299 the given address, no probing is done.
300
301Additionally, kind-specific force lists may optionally be defined if
302the driver supports several chip kinds. They are grouped in a
303NULL-terminated list of pointers named forces, those first element if the
304generic force list mentioned above. Each additional list correspond to an
305insmod parameter of the form force_<kind>.
306
307Fortunately, as a module writer, you just have to define the `normal_i2c'
308parameter. The complete declaration could look like this:
309
310 /* Scan 0x4c to 0x4f */
311 static const unsigned short normal_i2c[] = { 0x4c, 0x4d, 0x4e, 0x4f,
312 I2C_CLIENT_END };
313
314 /* Magic definition of all other variables and things */
315 I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD;
316 /* Or, if your driver supports, say, 2 kind of devices: */
317 I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD_2(foo, bar);
318
319If you use the multi-kind form, an enum will be defined for you:
320 enum chips { any_chip, foo, bar, ... }
321You can then (and certainly should) use it in the driver code.
322
323Note that you *have* to call the defined variable `normal_i2c',
324without any prefix!
325
326
327Attaching to an adapter (Legacy model)
328--------------------------------------
329
330Whenever a new adapter is inserted, or for all adapters if the driver is
331being registered, the callback attach_adapter() is called. Now is the
332time to determine what devices are present on the adapter, and to register
333a client for each of them.
334
335The attach_adapter callback is really easy: we just call the generic
336detection function. This function will scan the bus for us, using the
337information as defined in the lists explained above. If a device is
338detected at a specific address, another callback is called.
339
340 int foo_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adapter)
341 {
342 return i2c_probe(adapter,&addr_data,&foo_detect_client);
343 }
344
345Remember, structure `addr_data' is defined by the macros explained above,
346so you do not have to define it yourself.
347
348The i2c_probe function will call the foo_detect_client
349function only for those i2c addresses that actually have a device on
350them (unless a `force' parameter was used). In addition, addresses that
351are already in use (by some other registered client) are skipped.
352
353
354The detect client function (Legacy model)
355-----------------------------------------
356
357The detect client function is called by i2c_probe. The `kind' parameter
358contains -1 for a probed detection, 0 for a forced detection, or a positive
359number for a forced detection with a chip type forced.
360
361Returning an error different from -ENODEV in a detect function will cause
362the detection to stop: other addresses and adapters won't be scanned.
363This should only be done on fatal or internal errors, such as a memory
364shortage or i2c_attach_client failing.
365
366For now, you can ignore the `flags' parameter. It is there for future use.

1 Recipe for getting/building/running Xen/ia64 with pv_ops
2 --------------------------------------------------------
3
4This recipe describes how to get xen-ia64 source and build it,
5and run domU with pv_ops.
6
7============
8Requirements
9============
10
11 - python
12 - mercurial
13 it (aka "hg") is an open-source source code
14 management software. See the below.
15 http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/
16 - git
17 - bridge-utils
18
19=================================
20Getting and Building Xen and Dom0
21=================================
22
23 My environment is;
24 Machine : Tiger4
25 Domain0 OS : RHEL5
26 DomainU OS : RHEL5
27
28 1. Download source
29 # hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/ia64/xen-unstable.hg
30 # cd xen-unstable.hg
31 # hg clone http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/ia64/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
32
33 2. # make world
34
35 3. # make install-tools
36
37 4. copy kernels and xen
38 # cp xen/xen.gz /boot/efi/efi/redhat/
39 # cp build-linux-2.6.18-xen_ia64/vmlinux.gz \
40 /boot/efi/efi/redhat/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen
41
42 5. make initrd for Dom0/DomU
43 # make -C linux-2.6.18-xen.hg ARCH=ia64 modules_install \
44 O=$(/bin/pwd)/build-linux-2.6.18-xen_ia64
45 # mkinitrd -f /boot/efi/efi/redhat/initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img \
46 2.6.18.8-xen --builtin mptspi --builtin mptbase \
47 --builtin mptscsih --builtin uhci-hcd --builtin ohci-hcd \
48 --builtin ehci-hcd
49
50================================
51Making a disk image for guest OS
52================================
53
54 1. make file
55 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/rhel5.img bs=1M seek=4096 count=0
56 # mke2fs -F -j /root/rhel5.img
57 # mount -o loop /root/rhel5.img /mnt
58 # cp -ax /{dev,var,etc,usr,bin,sbin,lib} /mnt
59 # mkdir /mnt/{root,proc,sys,home,tmp}
60
61 Note: You may miss some device files. If so, please create them
62 with mknod. Or you can use tar instead of cp.
63
64 2. modify DomU's fstab
65 # vi /mnt/etc/fstab
66 /dev/xvda1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
67 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
68 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
69 none /proc proc defaults 0 0
70 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
71
72 3. modify inittab
73 set runlevel to 3 to avoid X trying to start
74 # vi /mnt/etc/inittab
75 id:3:initdefault:
76 Start a getty on the hvc0 console
77 X0:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty hvc0
78 tty1-6 mingetty can be commented out
79
80 4. add hvc0 into /etc/securetty
81 # vi /mnt/etc/securetty (add hvc0)
82
83 5. umount
84 # umount /mnt
85
86FYI, virt-manager can also make a disk image for guest OS.
87It's GUI tools and easy to make it.
88
89==================
90Boot Xen & Domain0
91==================
92
93 1. replace elilo
94 elilo of RHEL5 can boot Xen and Dom0.
95 If you use old elilo (e.g RHEL4), please download from the below
96 http://elilo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/blosxom
97 and copy into /boot/efi/efi/redhat/
98 # cp elilo-3.6-ia64.efi /boot/efi/efi/redhat/elilo.efi
99
100 2. modify elilo.conf (like the below)
101 # vi /boot/efi/efi/redhat/elilo.conf
102 prompt
103 timeout=20
104 default=xen
105 relocatable
106
107 image=vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xen
108 label=xen
109 vmm=xen.gz
110 initrd=initrd-2.6.18.8-xen.img
111 read-only
112 append=" -- rhgb root=/dev/sda2"
113
114The append options before "--" are for xen hypervisor,
115the options after "--" are for dom0.
116
117FYI, your machine may need console options like
118"com1=19200,8n1 console=vga,com1". For example,
119append="com1=19200,8n1 console=vga,com1 -- rhgb console=tty0 \
120console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda2"
121
122=====================================
123Getting and Building domU with pv_ops
124=====================================
125
126 1. get pv_ops tree
127 # git clone http://people.valinux.co.jp/~yamahata/xen-ia64/linux-2.6-xen-ia64.git/
128
129 2. git branch (if necessary)
130 # cd linux-2.6-xen-ia64/
131 # git checkout -b your_branch origin/xen-ia64-domu-minimal-2008may19
132 (Note: The current branch is xen-ia64-domu-minimal-2008may19.
133 But you would find the new branch. You can see with
134 "git branch -r" to get the branch lists.
135 http://people.valinux.co.jp/~yamahata/xen-ia64/for_eagl/linux-2.6-ia64-pv-ops.git/
136 is also available. The tree is based on
137 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6 test)
138
139
140 3. copy .config for pv_ops of domU
141 # cp arch/ia64/configs/xen_domu_wip_defconfig .config
142
143 4. make kernel with pv_ops
144 # make oldconfig
145 # make
146
147 5. install the kernel and initrd
148 # cp vmlinux.gz /boot/efi/efi/redhat/vmlinuz-2.6-pv_ops-xenU
149 # make modules_install
150 # mkinitrd -f /boot/efi/efi/redhat/initrd-2.6-pv_ops-xenU.img \

152 --builtin mptbase --builtin mptscsih --builtin uhci-hcd \
153 --builtin ohci-hcd --builtin ehci-hcd
154
155========================
156Boot DomainU with pv_ops
157========================
158
159 1. make config of DomU
160 # vi /etc/xen/rhel5
161 kernel = "/boot/efi/efi/redhat/vmlinuz-2.6-pv_ops-xenU"
162 ramdisk = "/boot/efi/efi/redhat/initrd-2.6-pv_ops-xenU.img"
163 vcpus = 1
164 memory = 512
165 name = "rhel5"
166 disk = [ 'file:/root/rhel5.img,xvda1,w' ]
167 root = "/dev/xvda1 ro"
168 extra= "rhgb console=hvc0"
169
170 2. After boot xen and dom0, start xend
171 # /etc/init.d/xend start
172 ( In the debugging case, # XEND_DEBUG=1 xend trace_start )
173
174 3. start domU
175 # xm create -c rhel5

1Kernel driver ics932s401
2======================
3
4Supported chips:
5 * IDT ICS932S401
6 Prefix: 'ics932s401'
7 Addresses scanned: I2C 0x69
8 Datasheet: Publically available at the IDT website
9
10Author: Darrick J. Wong
11
12Description
13-----------
14
15This driver implements support for the IDT ICS932S401 chip family.
16
17This chip has 4 clock outputs--a base clock for the CPU (which is likely
18multiplied to get the real CPU clock), a system clock, a PCI clock, a USB
19clock, and a reference clock. The driver reports selected and actual
20frequency. If spread spectrum mode is enabled, the driver also reports by what
21percent the clock signal is being spread, which should be between 0 and -0.5%.
22All frequencies are reported in KHz.
23
24The ICS932S401 monitors all inputs continuously. The driver will not read
25the registers more often than once every other second.
26
27Special Features
28----------------
29
30The clocks could be reprogrammed to increase system speed. I will not help you
31do this, as you risk damaging your system!

311. Introduction
32 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
33
34Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver is aware of two different
35hardware versions unimaginatively called version 1 and version 2. Version 1
36is found in "older" laptops and uses 4 bytes per packet. Version 2 seems to
37be introduced with the EeePC and uses 6 bytes per packet.
38
39The driver tries to support both hardware versions and should be compatible
40with the Xorg Synaptics touchpad driver and its graphical configuration
41utilities.
42
43Additionally the operation of the touchpad can be altered by adjusting the
44contents of some of its internal registers. These registers are represented
45by the driver as sysfs entries under /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio?
46that can be read from and written to.
47
48Currently only the registers for hardware version 1 are somewhat understood.
49Hardware version 2 seems to use some of the same registers but it is not
50known whether the bits in the registers represent the same thing or might
51have changed their meaning.
52
53On top of that, some register settings have effect only when the touchpad is
54in relative mode and not in absolute mode. As the Linux Elantech touchpad
55driver always puts the hardware into absolute mode not all information
56mentioned below can be used immediately. But because there is no freely
57available Elantech documentation the information is provided here anyway for
58completeness sake.

63
642. Extra knobs
65 ~~~~~~~~~~~
66
67Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver provides two extra knobs under
68/sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? for the user.
69
70* debug
71
72 Turn different levels of debugging ON or OFF.
73
74 By echoing "0" to this file all debugging will be turned OFF.
75
76 Currently a value of "1" will turn on some basic debugging and a value of
77 "2" will turn on packet debugging. For hardware version 1 the default is
78 OFF. For version 2 the default is "1".
79
80 Turning packet debugging on will make the driver dump every packet
81 received to the syslog before processing it. Be warned that this can
82 generate quite a lot of data!
83
84* paritycheck
85
86 Turns parity checking ON or OFF.
87
88 By echoing "0" to this file parity checking will be turned OFF. Any
89 non-zero value will turn it ON. For hardware version 1 the default is ON.
90 For version 2 the default it is OFF.
91
92 Hardware version 1 provides basic data integrity verification by
93 calculating a parity bit for the last 3 bytes of each packet. The driver
94 can check these bits and reject any packet that appears corrupted. Using
95 this knob you can bypass that check.
96
97 It is not known yet whether hardware version 2 provides the same parity
98 bits. Hence checking is disabled by default. Currently even turning it on
99 will do nothing.
100

104
1053. Hardware version 1
106 ==================
107
1083.1 Registers
109 ~~~~~~~~~
110
111By echoing a hexadecimal value to a register it contents can be altered.
112
113For example:
114
115 echo -n 0x16 > reg_10
116
117* reg_10
118
119 bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
120 B C T D L A S E
121
122 E: 1 = enable smart edges unconditionally
123 S: 1 = enable smart edges only when dragging
124 A: 1 = absolute mode (needs 4 byte packets, see reg_11)
125 L: 1 = enable drag lock (see reg_22)
126 D: 1 = disable dynamic resolution
127 T: 1 = disable tapping
128 C: 1 = enable corner tap
129 B: 1 = swap left and right button
130
131* reg_11
132
133 bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
134 1 0 0 H V 1 F P
135
136 P: 1 = enable parity checking for relative mode
137 F: 1 = enable native 4 byte packet mode
138 V: 1 = enable vertical scroll area
139 H: 1 = enable horizontal scroll area
140
141* reg_20
142
143 single finger width?
144
145* reg_21
146
147 scroll area width (small: 0x40 ... wide: 0xff)
148
149* reg_22
150
151 drag lock time out (short: 0x14 ... long: 0xfe;
152 0xff = tap again to release)
153
154* reg_23
155
156 tap make timeout?
157
158* reg_24
159
160 tap release timeout?
161
162* reg_25
163
164 smart edge cursor speed (0x02 = slow, 0x03 = medium, 0x04 = fast)
165
166* reg_26
167
168 smart edge activation area width?
169

1The io_mapping functions in linux/io-mapping.h provide an abstraction for
2efficiently mapping small regions of an I/O device to the CPU. The initial
3usage is to support the large graphics aperture on 32-bit processors where
4ioremap_wc cannot be used to statically map the entire aperture to the CPU
5as it would consume too much of the kernel address space.
6
7A mapping object is created during driver initialization using
8
9 struct io_mapping *io_mapping_create_wc(unsigned long base,
10 unsigned long size)
11
12 'base' is the bus address of the region to be made
13 mappable, while 'size' indicates how large a mapping region to
14 enable. Both are in bytes.
15
16 This _wc variant provides a mapping which may only be used
17 with the io_mapping_map_atomic_wc or io_mapping_map_wc.
18
19With this mapping object, individual pages can be mapped either atomically
20or not, depending on the necessary scheduling environment. Of course, atomic
21maps are more efficient:
22
23 void *io_mapping_map_atomic_wc(struct io_mapping *mapping,
24 unsigned long offset)
25
26 'offset' is the offset within the defined mapping region.
27 Accessing addresses beyond the region specified in the
28 creation function yields undefined results. Using an offset
29 which is not page aligned yields an undefined result. The
30 return value points to a single page in CPU address space.
31
32 This _wc variant returns a write-combining map to the
33 page and may only be used with mappings created by
34 io_mapping_create_wc
35
36 Note that the task may not sleep while holding this page
37 mapped.
38
39 void io_mapping_unmap_atomic(void *vaddr)
40
41 'vaddr' must be the the value returned by the last
42 io_mapping_map_atomic_wc call. This unmaps the specified
43 page and allows the task to sleep once again.
44
45If you need to sleep while holding the lock, you can use the non-atomic
46variant, although they may be significantly slower.
47
48 void *io_mapping_map_wc(struct io_mapping *mapping,
49 unsigned long offset)
50
51 This works like io_mapping_map_atomic_wc except it allows
52 the task to sleep while holding the page mapped.
53
54 void io_mapping_unmap(void *vaddr)
55
56 This works like io_mapping_unmap_atomic, except it is used
57 for pages mapped with io_mapping_map_wc.
58
59At driver close time, the io_mapping object must be freed:
60
61 void io_mapping_free(struct io_mapping *mapping)
62
63Current Implementation:
64
65The initial implementation of these functions uses existing mapping
66mechanisms and so provides only an abstraction layer and no new
67functionality.
68
69On 64-bit processors, io_mapping_create_wc calls ioremap_wc for the whole
70range, creating a permanent kernel-visible mapping to the resource. The
71map_atomic and map functions add the requested offset to the base of the
72virtual address returned by ioremap_wc.
73
74On 32-bit processors with HIGHMEM defined, io_mapping_map_atomic_wc uses
75kmap_atomic_pfn to map the specified page in an atomic fashion;
76kmap_atomic_pfn isn't really supposed to be used with device pages, but it
77provides an efficient mapping for this usage.
78
79On 32-bit processors without HIGHMEM defined, io_mapping_map_atomic_wc and
80io_mapping_map_wc both use ioremap_wc, a terribly inefficient function which
81performs an IPI to inform all processors about the new mapping. This results
82in a significant performance penalty.

54 Introduction
55
56UWB is a wide-band communication protocol that is to serve also as the
57low-level protocol for others (much like TCP sits on IP). Currently
58these others are Wireless USB and TCP/IP, but seems Bluetooth and
59Firewire/1394 are coming along.
60
61UWB uses a band from roughly 3 to 10 GHz, transmitting at a max of
62~-41dB (or 0.074 uW/MHz--geography specific data is still being
63negotiated w/ regulators, so watch for changes). That band is divided in
64a bunch of ~1.5 GHz wide channels (or band groups) composed of three
65subbands/subchannels (528 MHz each). Each channel is independent of each
66other, so you could consider them different "busses". Initially this
67driver considers them all a single one.
68
69Radio time is divided in 65536 us long /superframes/, each one divided
70in 256 256us long /MASs/ (Media Allocation Slots), which are the basic
71time/media allocation units for transferring data. At the beginning of
72each superframe there is a Beacon Period (BP), where every device
73transmit its beacon on a single MAS. The length of the BP depends on how
74many devices are present and the length of their beacons.
75
76Devices have a MAC (fixed, 48 bit address) and a device (changeable, 16
77bit address) and send periodic beacons to advertise themselves and pass
78info on what they are and do. They advertise their capabilities and a
79bunch of other stuff.
80
81The different logical parts of this driver are:
82
83 *
84
85 *UWB*: the Ultra-Wide-Band stack -- manages the radio and
86 associated spectrum to allow for devices sharing it. Allows to
87 control bandwidth assingment, beaconing, scanning, etc
88
89 *
90
91 *WUSB*: the layer that sits on top of UWB to provide Wireless USB.
92 The Wireless USB spec defines means to control a UWB radio and to
93 do the actual WUSB.
94
95
96 HWA: Host Wire adapters, your Wireless USB dongle
97
98WUSB also defines a device called a Host Wire Adaptor (HWA), which in
99mere terms is a USB dongle that enables your PC to have UWB and Wireless
100USB. The Wireless USB Host Controller in a HWA looks to the host like a
101[Wireless] USB controller connected via USB (!)
102
103The HWA itself is broken in two or three main interfaces:
104
105 *
106
107 *RC*: Radio control -- this implements an interface to the
108 Ultra-Wide-Band radio controller. The driver for this implements a
109 USB-based UWB Radio Controller to the UWB stack.
110
111 *
112
113 *HC*: the wireless USB host controller. It looks like a USB host
114 whose root port is the radio and the WUSB devices connect to it.
115 To the system it looks like a separate USB host. The driver (will)
116 implement a USB host controller (similar to UHCI, OHCI or EHCI)
117 for which the root hub is the radio...To reiterate: it is a USB
118 controller that is connected via USB instead of PCI.
119
120 *
121
122 *WINET*: some HW provide a WiNET interface (IP over UWB). This
123 package provides a driver for it (it looks like a network
124 interface, winetX). The driver detects when there is a link up for
125 their type and kick into gear.
126
127
128 DWA: Device Wired Adaptor, a Wireless USB hub for wired devices
129
130These are the complement to HWAs. They are a USB host for connecting
131wired devices, but it is connected to your PC connected via Wireless
132USB. To the system it looks like yet another USB host. To the untrained
133eye, it looks like a hub that connects upstream wirelessly.
134
135We still offer no support for this; however, it should share a lot of
136code with the HWA-RC driver; there is a bunch of factorization work that
137has been done to support that in upcoming releases.
138
139
140 WHCI: Wireless Host Controller Interface, the PCI WUSB host adapter
141
142This is your usual PCI device that implements WHCI. Similar in concept
143to EHCI, it allows your wireless USB devices (including DWAs) to connect
144to your host via a PCI interface. As in the case of the HWA, it has a
145Radio Control interface and the WUSB Host Controller interface per se.
146
147There is still no driver support for this, but will be in upcoming
148releases.
149
150
151 The UWB stack
152
153The main mission of the UWB stack is to keep a tally of which devices
154are in radio proximity to allow drivers to connect to them. As well, it
155provides an API for controlling the local radio controllers (RCs from
156now on), such as to start/stop beaconing, scan, allocate bandwidth, etc.
157
158
159 Devices and hosts: the basic structure
160
161The main building block here is the UWB device (struct uwb_dev). For
162each device that pops up in radio presence (ie: the UWB host receives a
163beacon from it) you get a struct uwb_dev that will show up in
164/sys/class/uwb and in /sys/bus/uwb/devices.
165
166For each RC that is detected, a new struct uwb_rc is created. In turn, a
167RC is also a device, so they also show in /sys/class/uwb and
168/sys/bus/uwb/devices, but at the same time, only radio controllers show
169up in /sys/class/uwb_rc.
170
171 *
172
173 [*] The reason for RCs being also devices is that not only we can
174 see them while enumerating the system device tree, but also on the
175 radio (their beacons and stuff), so the handling has to be
176 likewise to that of a device.
177
178Each RC driver is implemented by a separate driver that plugs into the
179interface that the UWB stack provides through a struct uwb_rc_ops. The
180spec creators have been nice enough to make the message format the same
181for HWA and WHCI RCs, so the driver is really a very thin transport that
182moves the requests from the UWB API to the device [/uwb_rc_ops->cmd()/]
183and sends the replies and notifications back to the API
184[/uwb_rc_neh_grok()/]. Notifications are handled to the UWB daemon, that
185is chartered, among other things, to keep the tab of how the UWB radio
186neighborhood looks, creating and destroying devices as they show up or
187dissapear.
188
189Command execution is very simple: a command block is sent and a event
190block or reply is expected back. For sending/receiving command/events, a
191handle called /neh/ (Notification/Event Handle) is opened with
192/uwb_rc_neh_open()/.
193
194The HWA-RC (USB dongle) driver (drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c) does this job for
195the USB connected HWA. Eventually, drivers/whci-rc.c will do the same
196for the PCI connected WHCI controller.
197
198
199 Host Controller life cycle
200
201So let's say we connect a dongle to the system: it is detected and
202firmware uploaded if needed [for Intel's i1480
203/drivers/uwb/ptc/usb.c:ptc_usb_probe()/] and then it is reenumerated.
204Now we have a real HWA device connected and
205/drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_probe()/ picks it up, that will set up the
206Wire-Adaptor environment and then suck it into the UWB stack's vision of
207the world [/drivers/uwb/lc-rc.c:uwb_rc_add()/].
208
209 *
210
211 [*] The stack should put a new RC to scan for devices
212 [/uwb_rc_scan()/] so it finds what's available around and tries to
213 connect to them, but this is policy stuff and should be driven
214 from user space. As of now, the operator is expected to do it
215 manually; see the release notes for documentation on the procedure.
216
217When a dongle is disconnected, /drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_disconnect()/
218takes time of tearing everything down safely (or not...).
219
220
221 On the air: beacons and enumerating the radio neighborhood
222
223So assuming we have devices and we have agreed for a channel to connect
224on (let's say 9), we put the new RC to beacon:
225
226 *
227
228 $ echo 9 0 > /sys/class/uwb_rc/uwb0/beacon
229
230Now it is visible. If there were other devices in the same radio channel
231and beacon group (that's what the zero is for), the dongle's radio
232control interface will send beacon notifications on its
233notification/event endpoint (NEEP). The beacon notifications are part of
234the event stream that is funneled into the API with
235/drivers/uwb/neh.c:uwb_rc_neh_grok()/ and delivered to the UWBD, the UWB
236daemon through a notification list.
237
238UWBD wakes up and scans the event list; finds a beacon and adds it to
239the BEACON CACHE (/uwb_beca/). If he receives a number of beacons from
240the same device, he considers it to be 'onair' and creates a new device
241[/drivers/uwb/lc-dev.c:uwbd_dev_onair()/]. Similarly, when no beacons
242are received in some time, the device is considered gone and wiped out
243[uwbd calls periodically /uwb/beacon.c:uwb_beca_purge()/ that will purge
244the beacon cache of dead devices].
245
246
247 Device lists
248
249All UWB devices are kept in the list of the struct bus_type uwb_bus.
250
251
252 Bandwidth allocation
253
254The UWB stack maintains a local copy of DRP availability through
255processing of incoming *DRP Availability Change* notifications. This
256local copy is currently used to present the current bandwidth
257availability to the user through the sysfs file
258/sys/class/uwb_rc/uwbx/bw_avail. In the future the bandwidth
259availability information will be used by the bandwidth reservation
260routines.
261
262The bandwidth reservation routines are in progress and are thus not
263present in the current release. When completed they will enable a user
264to initiate DRP reservation requests through interaction with sysfs. DRP
265reservation requests from remote UWB devices will also be handled. The
266bandwidth management done by the UWB stack will include callbacks to the
267higher layers will enable the higher layers to use the reservations upon
268completion. [Note: The bandwidth reservation work is in progress and
269subject to change.]
270
271
272 Wireless USB Host Controller drivers
273
274*WARNING* This section needs a lot of work!
275
276As explained above, there are three different types of HCs in the WUSB
277world: HWA-HC, DWA-HC and WHCI-HC.
278
279HWA-HC and DWA-HC share that they are Wire-Adapters (USB or WUSB
280connected controllers), and their transfer management system is almost
281identical. So is their notification delivery system.
282
283HWA-HC and WHCI-HC share that they are both WUSB host controllers, so
284they have to deal with WUSB device life cycle and maintenance, wireless
285root-hub
286
287HWA exposes a Host Controller interface (HWA-HC 0xe0/02/02). This has
288three endpoints (Notifications, Data Transfer In and Data Transfer
289Out--known as NEP, DTI and DTO in the code).
290
291We reserve UWB bandwidth for our Wireless USB Cluster, create a Cluster
292ID and tell the HC to use all that. Then we start it. This means the HC
293starts sending MMCs.
294
295 *
296
297 The MMCs are blocks of data defined somewhere in the WUSB1.0 spec
298 that define a stream in the UWB channel time allocated for sending
299 WUSB IEs (host to device commands/notifications) and Device
300 Notifications (device initiated to host). Each host defines a
301 unique Wireless USB cluster through MMCs. Devices can connect to a
302 single cluster at the time. The IEs are Information Elements, and
303 among them are the bandwidth allocations that tell each device
304 when can they transmit or receive.
305
306Now it all depends on external stimuli.
307
308*New device connection*
309
310A new device pops up, it scans the radio looking for MMCs that give out
311the existence of Wireless USB channels. Once one (or more) are found,
312selects which one to connect to. Sends a /DN_Connect/ (device
313notification connect) during the DNTS (Device Notification Time
314Slot--announced in the MMCs
315
316HC picks the /DN_Connect/ out (nep module sends to notif.c for delivery
317into /devconnect/). This process starts the authentication process for
318the device. First we allocate a /fake port/ and assign an
319unauthenticated address (128 to 255--what we really do is
3200x80 | fake_port_idx). We fiddle with the fake port status and /khubd/
321sees a new connection, so he moves on to enable the fake port with a reset.
322
323So now we are in the reset path -- we know we have a non-yet enumerated
324device with an unauthorized address; we ask user space to authenticate
325(FIXME: not yet done, similar to bluetooth pairing), then we do the key
326exchange (FIXME: not yet done) and issue a /set address 0/ to bring the
327device to the default state. Device is authenticated.
328
329From here, the USB stack takes control through the usb_hcd ops. khubd
330has seen the port status changes, as we have been toggling them. It will
331start enumerating and doing transfers through usb_hcd->urb_enqueue() to
332read descriptors and move our data.
333
334*Device life cycle and keep alives*
335
336Everytime there is a succesful transfer to/from a device, we update a
337per-device activity timestamp. If not, every now and then we check and
338if the activity timestamp gets old, we ping the device by sending it a
339Keep Alive IE; it responds with a /DN_Alive/ pong during the DNTS (this
340arrives to us as a notification through
341devconnect.c:wusb_handle_dn_alive(). If a device times out, we
342disconnect it from the system (cleaning up internal information and
343toggling the bits in the fake hub port, which kicks khubd into removing
344the rest of the stuff).
345
346This is done through devconnect:__wusb_check_devs(), which will scan the
347device list looking for whom needs refreshing.
348
349If the device wants to disconnect, it will either die (ugly) or send a
350/DN_Disconnect/ that will prompt a disconnection from the system.
351
352*Sending and receiving data*
353
354Data is sent and received through /Remote Pipes/ (rpipes). An rpipe is
355/aimed/ at an endpoint in a WUSB device. This is the same for HWAs and
356DWAs.
357
358Each HC has a number of rpipes and buffers that can be assigned to them;
359when doing a data transfer (xfer), first the rpipe has to be aimed and
360prepared (buffers assigned), then we can start queueing requests for
361data in or out.
362
363Data buffers have to be segmented out before sending--so we send first a
364header (segment request) and then if there is any data, a data buffer
365immediately after to the DTI interface (yep, even the request). If our
366buffer is bigger than the max segment size, then we just do multiple
367requests.
368
369[This sucks, because doing USB scatter gatter in Linux is resource
370intensive, if any...not that the current approach is not. It just has to
371be cleaned up a lot :)].
372
373If reading, we don't send data buffers, just the segment headers saying
374we want to read segments.
375
376When the xfer is executed, we receive a notification that says data is
377ready in the DTI endpoint (handled through
378xfer.c:wa_handle_notif_xfer()). In there we read from the DTI endpoint a
379descriptor that gives us the status of the transfer, its identification
380(given when we issued it) and the segment number. If it was a data read,
381we issue another URB to read into the destination buffer the chunk of
382data coming out of the remote endpoint. Done, wait for the next guy. The
383callbacks for the URBs issued from here are the ones that will declare
384the xfer complete at some point and call it's callback.
385
386Seems simple, but the implementation is not trivial.
387
388 *
389
390 *WARNING* Old!!
391
392The main xfer descriptor, wa_xfer (equivalent to a URB) contains an
393array of segments, tallys on segments and buffers and callback
394information. Buried in there is a lot of URBs for executing the segments
395and buffer transfers.
396
397For OUT xfers, there is an array of segments, one URB for each, another
398one of buffer URB. When submitting, we submit URBs for segment request
3991, buffer 1, segment 2, buffer 2...etc. Then we wait on the DTI for xfer
400result data; when all the segments are complete, we call the callback to
401finalize the transfer.
402
403For IN xfers, we only issue URBs for the segments we want to read and
404then wait for the xfer result data.
405
406*URB mapping into xfers*
407
408This is done by hwahc_op_urb_[en|de]queue(). In enqueue() we aim an
409rpipe to the endpoint where we have to transmit, create a transfer
410context (wa_xfer) and submit it. When the xfer is done, our callback is
411called and we assign the status bits and release the xfer resources.
412
413In dequeue() we are basically cancelling/aborting the transfer. We issue
414a xfer abort request to the HC, cancell all the URBs we had submitted
415and not yet done and when all that is done, the xfer callback will be
416called--this will call the URB callback.

6Information from Silicon Labs
7=============================
8Silicon Laboratories is the manufacturer of the radio ICs, that nowadays are the
9most often used radio receivers in cell phones. Usually they are connected with
10I2C. But SiLabs also provides a reference design, which integrates this IC,
11together with a small microcontroller C8051F321, to form a USB radio.
12Part of this reference design is also a radio application in binary and source
13code. The software also contains an automatic firmware upgrade to the most
14current version. Information on these can be downloaded here:
15http://www.silabs.com/usbradio
16
17
18Supported ICs
19=============
20The following ICs have a very similar register set, so that they are or will be
21supported somewhen by the driver:
22- Si4700: FM radio receiver
23- Si4701: FM radio receiver, RDS Support
24- Si4702: FM radio receiver
25- Si4703: FM radio receiver, RDS Support
26- Si4704: FM radio receiver, no external antenna required
27- Si4705: FM radio receiver, no external antenna required, RDS support, Dig I/O
28- Si4706: Enhanced FM RDS/TMC radio receiver, no external antenna required, RDS
29 Support
30- Si4707: Dedicated weather band radio receiver with SAME decoder, RDS Support
31- Si4708: Smallest FM receivers
32- Si4709: Smallest FM receivers, RDS Support
33More information on these can be downloaded here:
34http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBFMRadioRD.aspx
35
36
37Supported USB devices
38=====================
39Currently the following USB radios (vendor:product) with the Silicon Labs si470x
40chips are known to work:
41- 10c4:818a: Silicon Labs USB FM Radio Reference Design
42- 06e1:a155: ADS/Tech FM Radio Receiver (formerly Instant FM Music) (RDX-155-EF)
43- 1b80:d700: KWorld USB FM Radio SnapMusic Mobile 700 (FM700)
44
45
46Software
47========
48Testing is usually done with most application under Debian/testing:
49- fmtools - Utility for managing FM tuner cards
50- gnomeradio - FM-radio tuner for the GNOME desktop
51- gradio - GTK FM radio tuner
52- kradio - Comfortable Radio Application for KDE
53- radio - ncurses-based radio application
54
55There is also a library libv4l, which can be used. It's going to have a function
56for frequency seeking, either by using hardware functionality as in radio-si470x
57or by implementing a function as we currently have in every of the mentioned
58programs. Somewhen the radio programs should make use of libv4l.
59
60For processing RDS information, there is a project ongoing at:
61http://rdsd.berlios.de/
62
63There is currently no project for making TMC sentences human readable.
64
65
66Audio Listing
67=============
68USB Audio is provided by the ALSA snd_usb_audio module. It is recommended to
69also select SND_USB_AUDIO, as this is required to get sound from the radio. For
70listing you have to redirect the sound, for example using one of the following
71commands.
72
73If you just want to test audio (very poor quality):
74cat /dev/dsp1 > /dev/dsp
75
76If you use OSS try:
77sox -2 --endian little -r 96000 -t oss /dev/dsp1 -t oss /dev/dsp
78
79If you use arts try:
80arecord -D hw:1,0 -r96000 -c2 -f S16_LE | artsdsp aplay -B -
81
82
83Module Parameters
84=================
85After loading the module, you still have access to some of them in the sysfs
86mount under /sys/module/radio_si470x/parameters. The contents of read-only files
87(0444) are not updated, even if space, band and de are changed using private
88video controls. The others are runtime changeable.
89
90
91Errors
92======
93Increase tune_timeout, if you often get -EIO errors.
94
95When timed out or band limit is reached, hw_freq_seek returns -EAGAIN.
96
97If you get any errors from snd_usb_audio, please report them to the ALSA people.
98
99
100Open Issues
101===========
102V4L minor device allocation and parameter setting is not perfect. A solution is
103currently under discussion.
104
105There is an USB interface for downloading/uploading new firmware images. Support
106for it can be implemented using the request_firmware interface.
107
108There is a RDS interrupt mode. The driver is already using the same interface
109for polling RDS information, but is currently not using the interrupt mode.
110
111There is a LED interface, which can be used to override the LED control
112programmed in the firmware. This can be made available using the LED support
113functions in the kernel.

12Description:
13============
14The HDQ/1-Wire module of TI OMAP2430/3430 platforms implement the hardware
15protocol of the master functions of the Benchmark HDQ and the Dallas
16Semiconductor 1-Wire protocols. These protocols use a single wire for
17communication between the master (HDQ/1-Wire controller) and the slave
18(HDQ/1-Wire external compliant device).
19
20A typical application of the HDQ/1-Wire module is the communication with battery
21monitor (gas gauge) integrated circuits.
22
23The controller supports operation in both HDQ and 1-wire mode. The essential
24difference between the HDQ and 1-wire mode is how the slave device responds to
25initialization pulse.In HDQ mode, the firmware does not require the host to
26create an initialization pulse to the slave.However, the slave can be reset by
27using an initialization pulse (also referred to as a break pulse).The slave
28does not respond with a presence pulse as it does in the 1-Wire protocol.
29
30Remarks:
31========
32The driver (drivers/w1/masters/omap_hdq.c) supports the HDQ mode of the
33controller. In this mode, as we can not read the ID which obeys the W1
34spec(family:id:crc), a module parameter can be passed to the driver which will
35be used to calculate the CRC and pass back an appropriate slave ID to the W1
36core.
37
38By default the master driver and the BQ slave i/f
39driver(drivers/w1/slaves/w1_bq27000.c) sets the ID to 1.
40Please note to load both the modules with a different ID if required, but note
41that the ID used should be same for both master and slave driver loading.
42
43e.g:
44insmod omap_hdq.ko W1_ID=2
45inamod w1_bq27000.ko F_ID=2

83Advanced APIs for drivers
84-------------------------
85A. Exporting pages to users with remap_pfn_range, io_remap_pfn_range,
86vm_insert_pfn
87
88Drivers wanting to export some pages to userspace do it by using mmap
89interface and a combination of
901) pgprot_noncached()
912) io_remap_pfn_range() or remap_pfn_range() or vm_insert_pfn()
92
93With PAT support, a new API pgprot_writecombine is being added. So, drivers can
94continue to use the above sequence, with either pgprot_noncached() or
95pgprot_writecombine() in step 1, followed by step 2.
96
97In addition, step 2 internally tracks the region as UC or WC in memtype
98list in order to ensure no conflicting mapping.
99
100Note that this set of APIs only works with IO (non RAM) regions. If driver
101wants to export a RAM region, it has to do set_memory_uc() or set_memory_wc()
102as step 0 above and also track the usage of those pages and use set_memory_wb()
103before the page is freed to free pool.
