+Description:
+
+ This group contains the configuration for user defined ACPI
+ tables. The attributes of a user define table are:
+
+ aml - a binary attribute that the user can use to
+ fill in the ACPI aml definitions. Once the aml
+ data is written to this file and the file is
+ closed the table will be loaded and ACPI devices
+ will be enumerated. To check if the operation is
+ successful the user must check the error code
+ for close(). If the operation is successful,
+ subsequent writes to this attribute will fail.
+
+ The rest of the attributes are read-only and are valid only
+ after the table has been loaded by filling the aml entry:
+
+ signature - ASCII table signature
+ length - length of table in bytes, including the header
+ revision - ACPI Specification minor version number
+ oem_id - ASCII OEM identification
+ oem_table_id - ASCII OEM table identification
+ oem_revision - OEM revision number

+ <title>Introduction</title>
+ <para>
+ Note: this documents the proposed CEC API. This API is not yet finalized and
+ is currently only available as a staging kernel module.
+ </para>
+ <para>HDMI connectors provide a single pin for use by the Consumer Electronics
+ Control protocol. This protocol allows different devices connected by an HDMI cable
+ to communicate. The protocol for CEC version 1.4 is defined in supplements 1 (CEC)
+ and 2 (HEAC or HDMI Ethernet and Audio Return Channel) of the HDMI 1.4a
+ (<xref linkend="hdmi" />) specification and the extensions added to CEC version 2.0
+ are defined in chapter 11 of the HDMI 2.0 (<xref linkend="hdmi2" />) specification.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The bitrate is very slow (effectively no more than 36 bytes per second) and
+ is based on the ancient AV.link protocol used in old SCART connectors. The protocol
+ closely resembles a crazy Rube Goldberg contraption and is an unholy mix of low and
+ high level messages. Some messages, especially those part of the HEAC protocol layered
+ on top of CEC, need to be handled by the kernel, others can be handled either by the
+ kernel or by userspace.</para>
+
+ <para>In addition, CEC can be implemented in HDMI receivers, transmitters and in USB
+ devices that have an HDMI input and an HDMI output and that control just the CEC pin.</para>
+
+ <para>Drivers that support CEC will create a CEC device node (/dev/cecX)
+ to give userspace access to the CEC adapter. The &CEC-ADAP-G-CAPS; ioctl will tell userspace
+ what it is allowed to do.</para>

+ <para>CEC devices can send asynchronous events. These can be retrieved by calling
+ the <constant>CEC_DQEVENT</constant> ioctl. If the file descriptor is in non-blocking
+ mode and no event is pending, then it will return -1 and set errno to the &EAGAIN;.</para>
+
+ <para>The internal event queues are per-filehandle and per-event type. If there is
+ no more room in a queue then the last event is overwritten with the new one. This
+ means that intermediate results can be thrown away but that the latest event is always
+ available. This also means that is it possible to read two successive events that have
+ the same value (e.g. two CEC_EVENT_STATE_CHANGE events with the same state). In that
+ case the intermediate state changes were lost but it is guaranteed that the state
+ did change in between the two events.</para>

+ is currently only available as a staging kernel module.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>By default any filehandle can use &CEC-TRANSMIT; and &CEC-RECEIVE;, but
+in order to prevent applications from stepping on each others toes it must be possible
+to obtain exclusive access to the CEC adapter. This ioctl sets the filehandle
+to initiator and/or follower mode which can be exclusive depending on the chosen
+mode. The initiator is the filehandle that is used
+to initiate messages, i.e. it commands other CEC devices. The follower is the filehandle
+that receives messages sent to the CEC adapter and processes them. The same filehandle
+can be both initiator and follower, or this role can be taken by two different
+filehandles.</para>
+
+ <para>When a CEC message is received, then the CEC framework will decide how
+it will be processed. If the message is a reply to an earlier transmitted message,
+then the reply is sent back to the filehandle that is waiting for it. In addition
+the CEC framework will process it.</para>
+
+ <para>If the message is not a reply, then the CEC framework will process it
+first. If there is no follower, then the message is just discarded and a feature
+abort is sent back to the initiator if the framework couldn't process it. If there
+is a follower, then the message is passed on to the follower who will use
+&CEC-RECEIVE; to dequeue the new message. The framework expects the follower to
+make the right decisions.</para>
+
+ <para>The CEC framework will process core messages unless requested otherwise
+by the follower. The follower can enable the passthrough mode. In that case, the
+CEC framework will pass on most core messages without processing them and
+the follower will have to implement those messages. There are some messages
+that the core will always process, regardless of the passthrough mode. See
+<xref linkend="cec-core-processing" /> for details.</para>
+
+ <para>If there is no initiator, then any CEC filehandle can use &CEC-TRANSMIT;.
+If there is an exclusive initiator then only that initiator can call &CEC-TRANSMIT;.
+The follower can of course always call &CEC-TRANSMIT;.</para>

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

+Linuxized ACPICA - Introduction to ACPICA Release Automation
+
+Copyright (C) 2013-2016, Intel Corporation
+Author: Lv Zheng <lv.zheng@intel.com>
+
+
+Abstract:
+
+This document describes the ACPICA project and the relationship between
+ACPICA and Linux. It also describes how ACPICA code in drivers/acpi/acpica,
+include/acpi and tools/power/acpi is automatically updated to follow the
+upstream.
+
+
+1. ACPICA Project
+
+ The ACPI Component Architecture (ACPICA) project provides an operating
+ system (OS)-independent reference implementation of the Advanced
+ Configuration and Power Interface Specification (ACPI). It has been
+ adapted by various host OSes. By directly integrating ACPICA, Linux can
+ also benefit from the application experiences of ACPICA from other host
+ OSes.
+
+ The homepage of ACPICA project is: www.acpica.org, it is maintained and
+ supported by Intel Corporation.
+
+ The following figure depicts the Linux ACPI subystem where the ACPICA
+ adaptation is included:

+
+ NOTE:
+ A. OS Service Layer - Provided by Linux to offer OS dependent
+ implementation of the predefined ACPICA interfaces (acpi_os_*).
+ include/acpi/acpiosxf.h
+ drivers/acpi/osl.c
+ include/acpi/platform
+ include/asm/acenv.h
+ B. ACPICA Functionality - Released from ACPICA code base to offer
+ OS independent implementation of the ACPICA interfaces (acpi_*).
+ drivers/acpi/acpica
+ include/acpi/ac*.h
+ tools/power/acpi
+ C. Linux/ACPI Functionality - Providing Linux specific ACPI
+ functionality to the other Linux kernel subsystems and user space
+ programs.
+ drivers/acpi
+ include/linux/acpi.h
+ include/linux/acpi*.h
+ include/acpi
+ tools/power/acpi
+ D. Architecture Specific ACPICA/ACPI Functionalities - Provided by the
+ ACPI subsystem to offer architecture specific implementation of the
+ ACPI interfaces. They are Linux specific components and are out of
+ the scope of this document.

+
+2. ACPICA Release
+
+ The ACPICA project maintains its code base at the following repository URL:
+ https://github.com/acpica/acpica.git. As a rule, a release is made every
+ month.
+
+ As the coding style adopted by the ACPICA project is not acceptable by
+ Linux, there is a release process to convert the ACPICA git commits into
+ Linux patches. The patches generated by this process are referred to as
+ "linuxized ACPICA patches". The release process is carried out on a local
+ copy the ACPICA git repository. Each commit in the monthly release is
+ converted into a linuxized ACPICA patch. Together, they form the montly
+ ACPICA release patchset for the Linux ACPI community. This process is
+ illustrated in the following figure:

+ Figure 2. ACPICA -> Linux Upstream Process
+
+ NOTE:
+ A. Linuxize Utilities - Provided by the ACPICA repository, including a
+ utility located in source/tools/acpisrc folder and a number of
+ scripts located in generate/linux folder.
+ B. acpica / master - "master" branch of the git repository at
+ <https://github.com/acpica/acpica.git>.
+ C. linux-pm / linux-next - "linux-next" branch of the git repository at
+ <http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git>.
+ D. linux / master - "master" branch of the git repository at
+ <http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git>.
+
+ Before the linuxized ACPICA patches are sent to the Linux ACPI community
+ for review, there is a quality ensurance build test process to reduce
+ porting issues. Currently this build process only takes care of the
+ following kernel configuration options:
+ CONFIG_ACPI/CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG/CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUGGER
+
+3. ACPICA Divergences
+
+ Ideally, all of the ACPICA commits should be converted into Linux patches
+ automatically without manual modifications, the "linux / master" tree should
+ contain the ACPICA code that exactly corresponds to the ACPICA code
+ contained in "new linuxized acpica" tree and it should be possible to run
+ the release process fully automatically.
+
+ As a matter of fact, however, there are source code differences between
+ the ACPICA code in Linux and the upstream ACPICA code, referred to as
+ "ACPICA Divergences".
+
+ The various sources of ACPICA divergences include:
+ 1. Legacy divergences - Before the current ACPICA release process was
+ established, there already had been divergences between Linux and
+ ACPICA. Over the past several years those divergences have been greatly
+ reduced, but there still are several ones and it takes time to figure
+ out the underlying reasons for their existence.
+ 2. Manual modifications - Any manual modification (eg. coding style fixes)
+ made directly in the Linux sources obviously hurts the ACPICA release
+ automation. Thus it is recommended to fix such issues in the ACPICA
+ upstream source code and generate the linuxized fix using the ACPICA
+ release utilities (please refer to Section 4 below for the details).
+ 3. Linux specific features - Sometimes it's impossible to use the
+ current ACPICA APIs to implement features required by the Linux kernel,
+ so Linux developers occasionaly have to change ACPICA code directly.
+ Those changes may not be acceptable by ACPICA upstream and in such cases
+ they are left as committed ACPICA divergences unless the ACPICA side can
+ implement new mechanisms as replacements for them.
+ 4. ACPICA release fixups - ACPICA only tests commits using a set of the
+ user space simulation utilies, thus the linuxized ACPICA patches may
+ break the Linux kernel, leaving us build/boot failures. In order to
+ avoid breaking Linux bisection, fixes are applied directly to the
+ linuxized ACPICA patches during the release process. When the release
+ fixups are backported to the upstream ACPICA sources, they must follow
+ the upstream ACPICA rules and so further modifications may appear.
+ That may result in the appearance of new divergences.
+ 5. Fast tracking of ACPICA commits - Some ACPICA commits are regression
+ fixes or stable-candidate material, so they are applied in advance with
+ respect to the ACPICA release process. If such commits are reverted or
+ rebased on the ACPICA side in order to offer better solutions, new ACPICA
+ divergences are generated.
+
+4. ACPICA Development
+
+ This paragraph guides Linux developers to use the ACPICA upstream release
+ utilities to obtain Linux patches corresponding to upstream ACPICA commits
+ before they become available from the ACPICA release process.
+
+ 1. Cherry-pick an ACPICA commit
+
+ First you need to git clone the ACPICA repository and the ACPICA change
+ you want to cherry pick must be committed into the local repository.
+
+ Then the gen-patch.sh command can help to cherry-pick an ACPICA commit
+ from the ACPICA local repository:
+
+ $ git clone https://github.com/acpica/acpica
+ $ cd acpica
+ $ generate/linux/gen-patch.sh -u [commit ID]
+
+ Here the commit ID is the ACPICA local repository commit ID you want to
+ cherry pick. It can be omitted if the commit is "HEAD".
+
+ 2. Cherry-pick recent ACPICA commits
+
+ Sometimes you need to rebase your code on top of the most recent ACPICA
+ changes that haven't been applied to Linux yet.
+
+ You can generate the ACPICA release series yourself and rebase your code on
+ top of the generated ACPICA release patches:
+
+ $ git clone https://github.com/acpica/acpica
+ $ cd acpica
+ $ generate/linux/make-patches.sh -u [commit ID]
+
+ The commit ID should be the last ACPICA commit accepted by Linux. Usually,
+ it is the commit modifying ACPI_CA_VERSION. It can be found by executing
+ "git blame source/include/acpixf.h" and referencing the line that contains
+ "ACPI_CA_VERSION".
+
+ 3. Inspect the current divergences
+
+ If you have local copies of both Linux and upstream ACPICA, you can generate
+ a diff file indicating the state of the current divergences:
+
+ # git clone https://github.com/acpica/acpica
+ # git clone http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
+ # cd acpica
+ # generate/linux/divergences.sh -s ../linux

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

+AML Output: minnowmax.aml - 165 bytes, 6 named objects, 1 executable opcodes
+
+[1] http://wiki.minnowboard.org/MinnowBoard_MAX#Low_Speed_Expansion_Connector_.28Top.29
+
+The resulting AML code can then be loaded by the kernel using one of the methods
+below.
+
+== Loading ACPI SSDTs from initrd ==
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from initrd and it is useful
+when the system does not support EFI or when there is not enough EFI storage.
+
+It works in a similar way with initrd based ACPI tables override/upgrade: SSDT
+aml code must be placed in the first, uncompressed, initrd under the
+"kernel/firmware/acpi" path. Multiple files can be used and this will translate
+in loading multiple tables. Only SSDT and OEM tables are allowed. See
+initrd_table_override.txt for more details.
+
+Here is an example:
+
+# Add the raw ACPI tables to an uncompressed cpio archive.
+# They must be put into a /kernel/firmware/acpi directory inside the
+# cpio archive.
+# The uncompressed cpio archive must be the first.
+# Other, typically compressed cpio archives, must be
+# concatenated on top of the uncompressed one.
+mkdir -p kernel/firmware/acpi
+cp ssdt.aml kernel/firmware/acpi
+
+# Create the uncompressed cpio archive and concatenate the original initrd
+# on top:
+find kernel | cpio -H newc --create > /boot/instrumented_initrd
+cat /boot/initrd >>/boot/instrumented_initrd
+
+== Loading ACPI SSDTs from EFI variables ==
+
+This is the preferred method, when EFI is supported on the platform, because it
+allows a persistent, OS independent way of storing the user defined SSDTs. There
+is also work underway to implement EFI support for loading user defined SSDTs
+and using this method will make it easier to convert to the EFI loading
+mechanism when that will arrive.
+
+In order to load SSDTs from an EFI variable the efivar_ssdt kernel command line
+parameter can be used. The argument for the option is the variable name to
+use. If there are multiple variables with the same name but with different
+vendor GUIDs, all of them will be loaded.
+
+In order to store the AML code in an EFI variable the efivarfs filesystem can be
+used. It is enabled and mounted by default in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars in all
+recent distribution.
+
+Creating a new file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will automatically create a new
+EFI variable. Updating a file in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars will update the EFI
+variable. Please note that the file name needs to be specially formatted as
+"Name-GUID" and that the first 4 bytes in the file (little-endian format)
+represent the attributes of the EFI variable (see EFI_VARIABLE_MASK in
+include/linux/efi.h). Writing to the file must also be done with one write
+operation.
+
+For example, you can use the following bash script to create/update an EFI
+variable with the content from a given file:
+
+#!/bin/sh -e
+
+while ! [ -z "$1" ]; do
+ case "$1" in
+ "-f") filename="$2"; shift;;
+ "-g") guid="$2"; shift;;
+ *) name="$1";;
+ esac
+ shift
+done
+
+usage()
+{
+ echo "Syntax: ${0##*/} -f filename [ -g guid ] name"
+ exit 1
+}
+
+[ -n "$name" -a -f "$filename" ] || usage
+
+EFIVARFS="/sys/firmware/efi/efivars"
+
+[ -d "$EFIVARFS" ] || exit 2
+
+if stat -tf $EFIVARFS | grep -q -v de5e81e4; then
+ mount -t efivarfs none $EFIVARFS
+fi
+
+# try to pick up an existing GUID
+[ -n "$guid" ] || guid=$(find "$EFIVARFS" -name "$name-*" | head -n1 | cut -f2- -d-)
+
+# use a randomly generated GUID
+[ -n "$guid" ] || guid="$(cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid)"
+
+# efivarfs expects all of the data in one write
+tmp=$(mktemp)
+/bin/echo -ne "\007\000\000\000" | cat - $filename > $tmp
+dd if=$tmp of="$EFIVARFS/$name-$guid" bs=$(stat -c %s $tmp)
+rm $tmp
+
+== Loading ACPI SSDTs from configfs ==
+
+This option allows loading of user defined SSDTs from userspace via the configfs
+interface. The CONFIG_ACPI_CONFIGFS option must be select and configfs must be
+mounted. In the following examples, we assume that configfs has been mounted in
+/config.
+
+New tables can be loading by creating new directories in /config/acpi/table/ and
+writing the SSDT aml code in the aml attribute:
+
+cd /config/acpi/table
+mkdir my_ssdt
+cat ~/ssdt.aml > my_ssdt/aml

-TROUBLESHOOTING PERFORMANCE:
+
+HOWTO/COOKBOOK
+--------------
+
+A) Starting a bcache with a missing caching device
+
+If registering the backing device doesn't help, it's already there, you just need
+to force it to run without the cache:
+ host:~# echo /dev/sdb1 > /sys/fs/bcache/register
+ [ 119.844831] bcache: register_bcache() error opening /dev/sdb1: device already registered
+
+Next, you try to register your caching device if it's present. However
+if it's absent, or registration fails for some reason, you can still
+start your bcache without its cache, like so:
+ host:/sys/block/sdb/sdb1/bcache# echo 1 > running
+
+Note that this may cause data loss if you were running in writeback mode.
+
+
+B) Bcache does not find its cache
+
+ host:/sys/block/md5/bcache# echo 0226553a-37cf-41d5-b3ce-8b1e944543a8 > attach
+ [ 1933.455082] bcache: bch_cached_dev_attach() Couldn't find uuid for md5 in set
+ [ 1933.478179] bcache: __cached_dev_store() Can't attach 0226553a-37cf-41d5-b3ce-8b1e944543a8
+ [ 1933.478179] : cache set not found
+
+In this case, the caching device was simply not registered at boot
+or disappeared and came back, and needs to be (re-)registered:
+ host:/sys/block/md5/bcache# echo /dev/sdh2 > /sys/fs/bcache/register
+
+
+C) Corrupt bcache crashes the kernel at device registration time:
+
+This should never happen. If it does happen, then you have found a bug!
+Please report it to the bcache development list: linux-bcache@vger.kernel.org
+
+Be sure to provide as much information that you can including kernel dmesg
+output if available so that we may assist.
+
+
+D) Recovering data without bcache:
+
+If bcache is not available in the kernel, a filesystem on the backing
+device is still available at an 8KiB offset. So either via a loopdev
+of the backing device created with --offset 8K, or any value defined by
+--data-offset when you originally formatted bcache with `make-bcache`.
+
+For example:
+ losetup -o 8192 /dev/loop0 /dev/your_bcache_backing_dev
+
+This should present your unmodified backing device data in /dev/loop0
+
+If your cache is in writethrough mode, then you can safely discard the
+cache device without loosing data.
+
+
+E) Wiping a cache device

+they were: c6 85 73 f6 4e 1a 45 ca 82 65 f5 7f 48 ba 6d 81
+
+After you boot back with bcache enabled, you recreate the cache and attach it:

+
+
+G) dm-crypt and bcache
+
+First setup bcache unencrypted and then install dmcrypt on top of
+/dev/bcache<N> This will work faster than if you dmcrypt both the backing
+and caching devices and then install bcache on top. [benchmarks?]
+
+
+H) Stop/free a registered bcache to wipe and/or recreate it
+
+Suppose that you need to free up all bcache references so that you can
+fdisk run and re-register a changed partition table, which won't work
+if there are any active backing or caching devices left on it:
+
+1) Is it present in /dev/bcache* ? (there are times where it won't be)
+
+If so, it's easy:
+ host:/sys/block/bcache0/bcache# echo 1 > stop
+
+2) But if your backing device is gone, this won't work:
+ host:/sys/block/bcache0# cd bcache
+ bash: cd: bcache: No such file or directory
+
+In this case, you may have to unregister the dmcrypt block device that
+references this bcache to free it up:
+ host:~# dmsetup remove oldds1
+ bcache: bcache_device_free() bcache0 stopped
+ bcache: cache_set_free() Cache set 5bc072a8-ab17-446d-9744-e247949913c1 unregistered
+
+This causes the backing bcache to be removed from /sys/fs/bcache and
+then it can be reused. This would be true of any block device stacking
+where bcache is a lower device.
+
+3) In other cases, you can also look in /sys/fs/bcache/:
+
+host:/sys/fs/bcache# ls -l */{cache?,bdev?}

+
+The device names will show which UUID is relevant, cd in that directory
+and stop the cache:
+ host:/sys/fs/bcache/5bc072a8-ab17-446d-9744-e247949913c1# echo 1 > stop
+
+This will free up bcache references and let you reuse the partition for
+other purposes.
+
+
+
+TROUBLESHOOTING PERFORMANCE
+---------------------------
Bcache has a bunch of config options and tunables. The defaults are intended to
be reasonable for typical desktop and server workloads, but they're not what you
want for getting the best possible numbers when benchmarking.
+ - Backing device alignment
+
+ The default metadata size in bcache is 8k. If your backing device is
+ RAID based, then be sure to align this by a multiple of your stride
+ width using `make-bcache --data-offset`. If you intend to expand your
+ disk array in the future, then multiply a series of primes by your
+ raid stripe size to get the disk multiples that you would like.
+
+ For example: If you have a 64k stripe size, then the following offset
+ would provide alignment for many common RAID5 data spindle counts:
+ 64k * 2*2*2*3*3*5*7 bytes = 161280k
+
+ That space is wasted, but for only 157.5MB you can grow your RAID 5
+ volume to the following data-spindle counts without re-aligning:
+ 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,14,15,18,20,21 ...

+CEC Kernel Support
+==================
+
+The CEC framework provides a unified kernel interface for use with HDMI CEC
+hardware. It is designed to handle a multiple types of hardware (receivers,
+transmitters, USB dongles). The framework also gives the option to decide
+what to do in the kernel driver and what should be handled by userspace
+applications. In addition it integrates the remote control passthrough
+feature into the kernel's remote control framework.
+
+
+The CEC Protocol
+----------------
+
+The CEC protocol enables consumer electronic devices to communicate with each
+other through the HDMI connection. The protocol uses logical addresses in the
+communication. The logical address is strictly connected with the functionality
+provided by the device. The TV acting as the communication hub is always
+assigned address 0. The physical address is determined by the physical
+connection between devices.
+
+The CEC framework described here is up to date with the CEC 2.0 specification.
+It is documented in the HDMI 1.4 specification with the new 2.0 bits documented
+in the HDMI 2.0 specification. But for most of the features the freely available
+HDMI 1.3a specification is sufficient:
+
+http://www.microprocessor.org/HDMISpecification13a.pdf
+
+
+The Kernel Interface
+====================
+
+CEC Adapter
+-----------
+
+The struct cec_adapter represents the CEC adapter hardware. It is created by
+calling cec_allocate_adapter() and deleted by calling cec_delete_adapter():
+
+struct cec_adapter *cec_allocate_adapter(const struct cec_adap_ops *ops,
+ void *priv, const char *name, u32 caps, u8 available_las,
+ struct device *parent);
+void cec_delete_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap);
+
+To create an adapter you need to pass the following information:
+
+ops: adapter operations which are called by the CEC framework and that you
+have to implement.
+
+priv: will be stored in adap->priv and can be used by the adapter ops.
+
+name: the name of the CEC adapter. Note: this name will be copied.
+
+caps: capabilities of the CEC adapter. These capabilities determine the
+ capabilities of the hardware and which parts are to be handled
+ by userspace and which parts are handled by kernelspace. The
+ capabilities are returned by CEC_ADAP_G_CAPS.
+
+available_las: the number of simultaneous logical addresses that this
+ adapter can handle. Must be 1 <= available_las <= CEC_MAX_LOG_ADDRS.
+
+parent: the parent device.
+
+
+To register the /dev/cecX device node and the remote control device (if
+CEC_CAP_RC is set) you call:
+
+int cec_register_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap);
+
+To unregister the devices call:
+
+void cec_unregister_adapter(struct cec_adapter *adap);
+
+Note: if cec_register_adapter() fails, then call cec_delete_adapter() to
+clean up. But if cec_register_adapter() succeeded, then only call
+cec_unregister_adapter() to clean up, never cec_delete_adapter(). The
+unregister function will delete the adapter automatically once the last user
+of that /dev/cecX device has closed its file handle.
+
+
+Implementing the Low-Level CEC Adapter
+--------------------------------------
+
+The following low-level adapter operations have to be implemented in
+your driver:
+
+struct cec_adap_ops {
+ /* Low-level callbacks */
+ int (*adap_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable);
+ int (*adap_monitor_all_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable);
+ int (*adap_log_addr)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 logical_addr);
+ int (*adap_transmit)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 attempts,
+ u32 signal_free_time, struct cec_msg *msg);
+ void (*adap_log_status)(struct cec_adapter *adap);
+
+ /* High-level callbacks */
+ ...
+};
+
+The three low-level ops deal with various aspects of controlling the CEC adapter
+hardware:
+
+
+To enable/disable the hardware:
+
+ int (*adap_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable);
+
+This callback enables or disables the CEC hardware. Enabling the CEC hardware
+means powering it up in a state where no logical addresses are claimed. This
+op assumes that the physical address (adap->phys_addr) is valid when enable is
+true and will not change while the CEC adapter remains enabled. The initial
+state of the CEC adapter after calling cec_allocate_adapter() is disabled.
+
+Note that adap_enable must return 0 if enable is false.
+
+
+To enable/disable the 'monitor all' mode:
+
+ int (*adap_monitor_all_enable)(struct cec_adapter *adap, bool enable);
+
+If enabled, then the adapter should be put in a mode to also monitor messages
+that not for us. Not all hardware supports this and this function is only
+called if the CEC_CAP_MONITOR_ALL capability is set. This callback is optional
+(some hardware may always be in 'monitor all' mode).
+
+Note that adap_monitor_all_enable must return 0 if enable is false.
+
+
+To program a new logical address:
+
+ int (*adap_log_addr)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 logical_addr);
+
+If logical_addr == CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID then all programmed logical addresses
+are to be erased. Otherwise the given logical address should be programmed.
+If the maximum number of available logical addresses is exceeded, then it
+should return -ENXIO. Once a logical address is programmed the CEC hardware
+can receive directed messages to that address.
+
+Note that adap_log_addr must return 0 if logical_addr is CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID.
+
+
+To transmit a new message:
+
+ int (*adap_transmit)(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 attempts,
+ u32 signal_free_time, struct cec_msg *msg);
+
+This transmits a new message. The attempts argument is the suggested number of
+attempts for the transmit.
+
+The signal_free_time is the number of data bit periods that the adapter should
+wait when the line is free before attempting to send a message. This value
+depends on whether this transmit is a retry, a message from a new initiator or
+a new message for the same initiator. Most hardware will handle this
+automatically, but in some cases this information is needed.
+
+The CEC_FREE_TIME_TO_USEC macro can be used to convert signal_free_time to
+microseconds (one data bit period is 2.4 ms).
+
+
+To log the current CEC hardware status:
+
+ void (*adap_status)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct seq_file *file);
+
+This optional callback can be used to show the status of the CEC hardware.
+The status is available through debugfs: cat /sys/kernel/debug/cec/cecX/status
+
+
+Your adapter driver will also have to react to events (typically interrupt
+driven) by calling into the framework in the following situations:
+
+When a transmit finished (successfully or otherwise):
+
+void cec_transmit_done(struct cec_adapter *adap, u8 status, u8 arb_lost_cnt,
+ u8 nack_cnt, u8 low_drive_cnt, u8 error_cnt);
+
+The status can be one of:
+
+CEC_TX_STATUS_OK: the transmit was successful.
+CEC_TX_STATUS_ARB_LOST: arbitration was lost: another CEC initiator
+took control of the CEC line and you lost the arbitration.
+CEC_TX_STATUS_NACK: the message was nacked (for a directed message) or
+acked (for a broadcast message). A retransmission is needed.
+CEC_TX_STATUS_LOW_DRIVE: low drive was detected on the CEC bus. This
+indicates that a follower detected an error on the bus and requested a
+retransmission.
+CEC_TX_STATUS_ERROR: some unspecified error occurred: this can be one of
+the previous two if the hardware cannot differentiate or something else
+entirely.
+CEC_TX_STATUS_MAX_RETRIES: could not transmit the message after
+trying multiple times. Should only be set by the driver if it has hardware
+support for retrying messages. If set, then the framework assumes that it
+doesn't have to make another attempt to transmit the message since the
+hardware did that already.
+
+The *_cnt arguments are the number of error conditions that were seen.
+This may be 0 if no information is available. Drivers that do not support
+hardware retry can just set the counter corresponding to the transmit error
+to 1, if the hardware does support retry then either set these counters to
+0 if the hardware provides no feedback of which errors occurred and how many
+times, or fill in the correct values as reported by the hardware.
+
+When a CEC message was received:
+
+void cec_received_msg(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg);
+
+Speaks for itself.
+
+Implementing the High-Level CEC Adapter
+---------------------------------------
+
+The low-level operations drive the hardware, the high-level operations are
+CEC protocol driven. The following high-level callbacks are available:
+
+struct cec_adap_ops {
+ /* Low-level callbacks */
+ ...
+
+ /* High-level CEC message callback */
+ int (*received)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg);
+};
+
+The received() callback allows the driver to optionally handle a newly
+received CEC message
+
+ int (*received)(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg);
+
+If the driver wants to process a CEC message, then it can implement this
+callback. If it doesn't want to handle this message, then it should return
+-ENOMSG, otherwise the CEC framework assumes it processed this message and
+it will not no anything with it.
+
+
+CEC framework functions
+-----------------------
+
+CEC Adapter drivers can call the following CEC framework functions:
+
+int cec_transmit_msg(struct cec_adapter *adap, struct cec_msg *msg,
+ bool block);
+
+Transmit a CEC message. If block is true, then wait until the message has been
+transmitted, otherwise just queue it and return.
+
+void cec_s_phys_addr(struct cec_adapter *adap, u16 phys_addr, bool block);
+
+Change the physical address. This function will set adap->phys_addr and
+send an event if it has changed. If cec_s_log_addrs() has been called and
+the physical address has become valid, then the CEC framework will start
+claiming the logical addresses. If block is true, then this function won't
+return until this process has finished.
+
+When the physical address is set to a valid value the CEC adapter will
+be enabled (see the adap_enable op). When it is set to CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID,
+then the CEC adapter will be disabled. If you change a valid physical address
+to another valid physical address, then this function will first set the
+address to CEC_PHYS_ADDR_INVALID before enabling the new physical address.
+
+int cec_s_log_addrs(struct cec_adapter *adap,
+ struct cec_log_addrs *log_addrs, bool block);
+
+Claim the CEC logical addresses. Should never be called if CEC_CAP_LOG_ADDRS
+is set. If block is true, then wait until the logical addresses have been
+claimed, otherwise just queue it and return. To unconfigure all logical
+addresses call this function with log_addrs set to NULL or with
+log_addrs->num_log_addrs set to 0. The block argument is ignored when
+unconfiguring. This function will just return if the physical address is
+invalid. Once the physical address becomes valid, then the framework will
+attempt to claim these logical addresses.

+Renesas R-Car Frame Compression Processor (FCP)
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+The FCP is a companion module of video processing modules in the Renesas R-Car
+Gen3 SoCs. It provides data compression and decompression, data caching, and
+conversion of AXI transactions in order to reduce the memory bandwidth.
+
+There are three types of FCP: FCP for Codec (FCPC), FCP for VSP (FCPV) and FCP
+for FDP (FCPF). Their configuration and behaviour depend on the module they
+are paired with. These DT bindings currently support the FCPV only.
+
+ - compatible: Must be one or more of the following
+
+ - "renesas,r8a7795-fcpv" for R8A7795 (R-Car H3) compatible 'FCP for VSP'
+ - "renesas,fcpv" for generic compatible 'FCP for VSP'
+
+ When compatible with the generic version, nodes must list the
+ SoC-specific version corresponding to the platform first, followed by the
+ family-specific and/or generic versions.
+
+ - reg: the register base and size for the device registers
+ - clocks: Reference to the functional clock
+
+
+Device node example

+Ramoops oops/panic logger
+=========================
+
+ramoops provides persistent RAM storage for oops and panics, so they can be
+recovered after a reboot. It is a backend to pstore, so this node is named
+"ramoops" after the backend, rather than "pstore" which is the subsystem.
+
+Parts of this storage may be set aside for other persistent log buffers, such
+as kernel log messages, or for optional ECC error-correction data. The total
+size of these optional buffers must fit in the reserved region.
+
+Any remaining space will be used for a circular buffer of oops and panic
+records. These records have a configurable size, with a size of 0 indicating
+that they should be disabled.
+
+At least one of "record-size", "console-size", "ftrace-size", or "pmsg-size"
+must be set non-zero, but are otherwise optional as listed below.
+
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: must be "ramoops"
+
+- memory-region: phandle to a region of memory that is preserved between
+ reboots
+
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- ecc-size: enables ECC support and specifies ECC buffer size in bytes
+ (defaults to 0: no ECC)

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the Sensirion SHT3x-DIS chip, a humidity
+and temperature sensor. Temperature is measured in degrees celsius, relative
+humidity is expressed as a percentage. In the sysfs interface, all values are
+scaled by 1000, i.e. the value for 31.5 degrees celsius is 31500.
+
+The device communicates with the I2C protocol. Sensors can have the I2C
+addresses 0x44 or 0x45, depending on the wiring. See
+Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for methods to instantiate the device.
+
+There are two options configurable by means of sht3x_platform_data:
+1. blocking (pull the I2C clock line down while performing the measurement) or
+ non-blocking mode. Blocking mode will guarantee the fastest result but
+ the I2C bus will be busy during that time. By default, non-blocking mode
+ is used. Make sure clock-stretching works properly on your device if you
+ want to use blocking mode.
+2. high or low accuracy. High accuracy is used by default and using it is
+ strongly recommended.
+
+The sht3x sensor supports a single shot mode as well as 5 periodic measure
+modes, which can be controlled with the update_interval sysfs interface.
+The allowed update_interval in milliseconds are as follows:
+ * 0 single shot mode
+ * 2000 0.5 Hz periodic measurement
+ * 1000 1 Hz periodic measurement
+ * 500 2 Hz periodic measurement
+ * 250 4 Hz periodic measurement
+ * 100 10 Hz periodic measurement
+
+In the periodic measure mode, the sensor automatically triggers a measurement
+with the configured update interval on the chip. When a temperature or humidity
+reading exceeds the configured limits, the alert attribute is set to 1 and
+the alert pin on the sensor is set to high.
+When the temperature and humidity readings move back between the hysteresis
+values, the alert bit is set to 0 and the alert pin on the sensor is set to
+low.

+Linux Kernel Documentation
+==========================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The Linux kernel uses `Sphinx`_ to generate pretty documentation from
+`reStructuredText`_ files under ``Documentation``. To build the documentation in
+HTML or PDF formats, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The generated
+documentation is placed in ``Documentation/output``.
+
+.. _Sphinx: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/
+.. _reStructuredText: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html
+
+The reStructuredText files may contain directives to include structured
+documentation comments, or kernel-doc comments, from source files. Usually these
+are used to describe the functions and types and design of the code. The
+kernel-doc comments have some special structure and formatting, but beyond that
+they are also treated as reStructuredText.
+
+There is also the deprecated DocBook toolchain to generate documentation from
+DocBook XML template files under ``Documentation/DocBook``. The DocBook files
+are to be converted to reStructuredText, and the toolchain is slated to be
+removed.
+
+Finally, there are thousands of plain text documentation files scattered around
+``Documentation``. Some of these will likely be converted to reStructuredText
+over time, but the bulk of them will remain in plain text.
+
+Sphinx Build
+============
+
+The usual way to generate the documentation is to run ``make htmldocs`` or
+``make pdfdocs``. There are also other formats available, see the documentation
+section of ``make help``. The generated documentation is placed in
+format-specific subdirectories under ``Documentation/output``.
+
+To generate documentation, Sphinx (``sphinx-build``) must obviously be
+installed. For prettier HTML output, the Read the Docs Sphinx theme
+(``sphinx_rtd_theme``) is used if available. For PDF output, ``rst2pdf`` is also
+needed. All of these are widely available and packaged in distributions.
+
+To pass extra options to Sphinx, you can use the ``SPHINXOPTS`` make
+variable. For example, use ``make SPHINXOPTS=-v htmldocs`` to get more verbose
+output.
+
+To remove the generated documentation, run ``make cleandocs``.
+
+Writing Documentation
+=====================
+
+Adding new documentation can be as simple as:
+
+1. Add a new ``.rst`` file somewhere under ``Documentation``.
+2. Refer to it from the Sphinx main `TOC tree`_ in ``Documentation/index.rst``.
+
+.. _TOC tree: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/markup/toctree.html
+
+This is usually good enough for simple documentation (like the one you're
+reading right now), but for larger documents it may be advisable to create a
+subdirectory (or use an existing one). For example, the graphics subsystem
+documentation is under ``Documentation/gpu``, split to several ``.rst`` files,
+and has a separate ``index.rst`` (with a ``toctree`` of its own) referenced from
+the main index.
+
+See the documentation for `Sphinx`_ and `reStructuredText`_ on what you can do
+with them. In particular, the Sphinx `reStructuredText Primer`_ is a good place
+to get started with reStructuredText. There are also some `Sphinx specific
+markup constructs`_.
+
+.. _reStructuredText Primer: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/rest.html
+.. _Sphinx specific markup constructs: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/markup/index.html
+
+Specific guidelines for the kernel documentation
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Here are some specific guidelines for the kernel documentation:
+
+* Please don't go overboard with reStructuredText markup. Keep it simple.
+
+* Please stick to this order of heading adornments:
+
+ 1. ``=`` with overline for document title::
+
+ ==============
+ Document title
+ ==============
+
+ 2. ``=`` for chapters::
+
+ Chapters
+ ========
+
+ 3. ``-`` for sections::
+
+ Section
+ -------
+
+ 4. ``~`` for subsections::
+
+ Subsection
+ ~~~~~~~~~~
+
+ Although RST doesn't mandate a specific order ("Rather than imposing a fixed
+ number and order of section title adornment styles, the order enforced will be
+ the order as encountered."), having the higher levels the same overall makes
+ it easier to follow the documents.
+
+list tables
+-----------
+
+We recommend the use of *list table* formats. The *list table* formats are
+double-stage lists. Compared to the ASCII-art they might not be as
+comfortable for
+readers of the text files. Their advantage is that they are easy to
+create or modify and that the diff of a modification is much more meaningful,
+because it is limited to the modified content.
+
+The ``flat-table`` is a double-stage list similar to the ``list-table`` with
+some additional features:
+
+* column-span: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
+ additional columns
+
+* row-span: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
+ additional rows
+
+* auto span rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the right
+ side of that table-row. With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior can
+ changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automatically inserts (empty)
+ cells instead of spanning the last cell.
+
+options:
+
+* ``:header-rows:`` [int] count of header rows
+* ``:stub-columns:`` [int] count of stub columns
+* ``:widths:`` [[int] [int] ... ] widths of columns
+* ``:fill-cells:`` instead of auto-spanning missing cells, insert missing cells
+
+roles:
+
+* ``:cspan:`` [int] additional columns (*morecols*)
+* ``:rspan:`` [int] additional rows (*morerows*)
+
+The example below shows how to use this markup. The first level of the staged
+list is the *table-row*. In the *table-row* there is only one markup allowed,
+the list of the cells in this *table-row*. Exceptions are *comments* ( ``..`` )
+and *targets* (e.g. a ref to ``:ref:`last row <last row>``` / :ref:`last row
+<last row>`).
+
+.. code-block:: rst
+
+ .. flat-table:: table title
+ :widths: 2 1 1 3
+
+ * - head col 1
+ - head col 2
+ - head col 3
+ - head col 4
+
+ * - column 1
+ - field 1.1
+ - field 1.2 with autospan
+
+ * - column 2
+ - field 2.1
+ - :rspan:`1` :cspan:`1` field 2.2 - 3.3
+
+ * .. _`last row`:
+
+ - column 3
+
+Rendered as:
+
+ .. flat-table:: table title
+ :widths: 2 1 1 3
+
+ * - head col 1
+ - head col 2
+ - head col 3
+ - head col 4
+
+ * - column 1
+ - field 1.1
+ - field 1.2 with autospan
+
+ * - column 2
+ - field 2.1
+ - :rspan:`1` :cspan:`1` field 2.2 - 3.3
+
+ * .. _`last row`:
+
+ - column 3
+
+
+Including kernel-doc comments
+=============================
+
+The Linux kernel source files may contain structured documentation comments, or
+kernel-doc comments to describe the functions and types and design of the
+code. The documentation comments may be included to any of the reStructuredText
+documents using a dedicated kernel-doc Sphinx directive extension.
+
+The kernel-doc directive is of the format::
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: source
+ :option:
+
+The *source* is the path to a source file, relative to the kernel source
+tree. The following directive options are supported:
+
+export: *[source-pattern ...]*
+ Include documentation for all functions in *source* that have been exported
+ using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL`` or ``EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL`` either in *source* or in any
+ of the files specified by *source-pattern*.
+
+ The *source-pattern* is useful when the kernel-doc comments have been placed
+ in header files, while ``EXPORT_SYMBOL`` and ``EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL`` are next to
+ the function definitions.
+
+ Examples::
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: lib/bitmap.c
+ :export:
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: include/net/mac80211.h
+ :export: net/mac80211/*.c
+
+internal: *[source-pattern ...]*
+ Include documentation for all functions and types in *source* that have
+ **not** been exported using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL`` or ``EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL`` either
+ in *source* or in any of the files specified by *source-pattern*.
+
+ Example::
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_audio.c
+ :internal:
+
+doc: *title*
+ Include documentation for the ``DOC:`` paragraph identified by *title* in
+ *source*. Spaces are allowed in *title*; do not quote the *title*. The *title*
+ is only used as an identifier for the paragraph, and is not included in the
+ output. Please make sure to have an appropriate heading in the enclosing
+ reStructuredText document.
+
+ Example::
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_audio.c
+ :doc: High Definition Audio over HDMI and Display Port
+
+functions: *function* *[...]*
+ Include documentation for each *function* in *source*.
+
+ Example::
+
+ .. kernel-doc:: lib/bitmap.c
+ :functions: bitmap_parselist bitmap_parselist_user
+
+Without options, the kernel-doc directive includes all documentation comments
+from the source file.
+
+The kernel-doc extension is included in the kernel source tree, at
+``Documentation/sphinx/kernel-doc.py``. Internally, it uses the
+``scripts/kernel-doc`` script to extract the documentation comments from the
+source.
+
+Writing kernel-doc comments
+===========================
+
+In order to provide embedded, "C" friendly, easy to maintain, but consistent and
+extractable overview, function and type documentation, the Linux kernel has
+adopted a consistent style for documentation comments. The format for this
+documentation is called the kernel-doc format, described below. This style
+embeds the documentation within the source files, using a few simple conventions
+for adding documentation paragraphs and documenting functions and their
+parameters, structures and unions and their members, enumerations, and typedefs.
+
+.. note:: The kernel-doc format is deceptively similar to gtk-doc or Doxygen,
+ yet distinctively different, for historical reasons. The kernel source
+ contains tens of thousands of kernel-doc comments. Please stick to the style
+ described here.
+
+The ``scripts/kernel-doc`` script is used by the Sphinx kernel-doc extension in
+the documentation build to extract this embedded documentation into the various
+HTML, PDF, and other format documents.
+
+In order to provide good documentation of kernel functions and data structures,
+please use the following conventions to format your kernel-doc comments in the
+Linux kernel source.
+
+How to format kernel-doc comments
+---------------------------------
+
+The opening comment mark ``/**`` is reserved for kernel-doc comments. Only
+comments so marked will be considered by the ``kernel-doc`` tool. Use it only
+for comment blocks that contain kernel-doc formatted comments. The usual ``*/``
+should be used as the closing comment marker. The lines in between should be
+prefixed by `` * `` (space star space).
+
+The function and type kernel-doc comments should be placed just before the
+function or type being described. The overview kernel-doc comments may be freely
+placed at the top indentation level.
+
+Example kernel-doc function comment::
+
+ /**
+ * foobar() - Brief description of foobar.
+ * @arg: Description of argument of foobar.
+ *
+ * Longer description of foobar.
+ *
+ * Return: Description of return value of foobar.
+ */
+ int foobar(int arg)
+
+The format is similar for documentation for structures, enums, paragraphs,
+etc. See the sections below for details.
+
+The kernel-doc structure is extracted from the comments, and proper `Sphinx C
+Domain`_ function and type descriptions with anchors are generated for them. The
+descriptions are filtered for special kernel-doc highlights and
+cross-references. See below for details.
+
+.. _Sphinx C Domain: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/domains.html
+
+Highlights and cross-references
+-------------------------------
+
+The following special patterns are recognized in the kernel-doc comment
+descriptive text and converted to proper reStructuredText markup and `Sphinx C
+Domain`_ references.
+
+.. attention:: The below are **only** recognized within kernel-doc comments,
+ **not** within normal reStructuredText documents.
+
+``funcname()``
+ Function reference.
+
+``@parameter``
+ Name of a function parameter. (No cross-referencing, just formatting.)
+
+``%CONST``
+ Name of a constant. (No cross-referencing, just formatting.)
+
+``$ENVVAR``
+ Name of an environment variable. (No cross-referencing, just formatting.)
+
+``&struct name``
+ Structure reference.
+
+``&enum name``
+ Enum reference.
+
+``&typedef name``
+ Typedef reference.
+
+``&struct_name->member`` or ``&struct_name.member``
+ Structure or union member reference. The cross-reference will be to the struct
+ or union definition, not the member directly.
+
+``&name``
+ A generic type reference. Prefer using the full reference described above
+ instead. This is mostly for legacy comments.
+
+Cross-referencing from reStructuredText
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. highlight:: none
+
+To cross-reference the functions and types defined in the kernel-doc comments
+from reStructuredText documents, please use the `Sphinx C Domain`_
+references. For example::
+
+ See function :c:func:`foo` and struct/union/enum/typedef :c:type:`bar`.
+
+While the type reference works with just the type name, without the
+struct/union/enum/typedef part in front, you may want to use::
+
+ See :c:type:`struct foo <foo>`.
+ See :c:type:`union bar <bar>`.
+ See :c:type:`enum baz <baz>`.
+ See :c:type:`typedef meh <meh>`.
+
+This will produce prettier links, and is in line with how kernel-doc does the
+cross-references.
+
+For further details, please refer to the `Sphinx C Domain`_ documentation.
+
+Function documentation
+----------------------
+
+.. highlight:: c
+
+The general format of a function and function-like macro kernel-doc comment is::
+
+ /**
+ * function_name() - Brief description of function.
+ * @arg1: Describe the first argument.
+ * @arg2: Describe the second argument.
+ * One can provide multiple line descriptions
+ * for arguments.
+ *
+ * A longer description, with more discussion of the function function_name()
+ * that might be useful to those using or modifying it. Begins with an
+ * empty comment line, and may include additional embedded empty
+ * comment lines.
+ *
+ * The longer description may have multiple paragraphs.
+ *
+ * Return: Describe the return value of foobar.
+ *
+ * The return value description can also have multiple paragraphs, and should
+ * be placed at the end of the comment block.
+ */
+
+The brief description following the function name may span multiple lines, and
+ends with an ``@argument:`` description, a blank comment line, or the end of the
+comment block.
+
+The kernel-doc function comments describe each parameter to the function, in
+order, with the ``@argument:`` descriptions. The ``@argument:`` descriptions
+must begin on the very next line following the opening brief function
+description line, with no intervening blank comment lines. The ``@argument:``
+descriptions may span multiple lines. The continuation lines may contain
+indentation. If a function parameter is ``...`` (varargs), it should be listed
+in kernel-doc notation as: ``@...:``.
+
+The return value, if any, should be described in a dedicated section at the end
+of the comment starting with "Return:".
+
+Structure, union, and enumeration documentation
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+The general format of a struct, union, and enum kernel-doc comment is::
+
+ /**
+ * struct struct_name - Brief description.
+ * @member_name: Description of member member_name.
+ *
+ * Description of the structure.
+ */
+
+Below, "struct" is used to mean structs, unions and enums, and "member" is used
+to mean struct and union members as well as enumerations in an enum.
+
+The brief description following the structure name may span multiple lines, and
+ends with a ``@member:`` description, a blank comment line, or the end of the
+comment block.
+
+The kernel-doc data structure comments describe each member of the structure, in
+order, with the ``@member:`` descriptions. The ``@member:`` descriptions must
+begin on the very next line following the opening brief function description
+line, with no intervening blank comment lines. The ``@member:`` descriptions may
+span multiple lines. The continuation lines may contain indentation.
+
+In-line member documentation comments
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The structure members may also be documented in-line within the definition::
+
+ /**
+ * struct foo - Brief description.
+ * @foo: The Foo member.
+ */
+ struct foo {
+ int foo;
+ /**
+ * @bar: The Bar member.
+ */
+ int bar;
+ /**
+ * @baz: The Baz member.
+ *
+ * Here, the member description may contain several paragraphs.
+ */
+ int baz;
+ }
+
+Private members
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Inside a struct description, you can use the "private:" and "public:" comment
+tags. Structure fields that are inside a "private:" area are not listed in the
+generated output documentation. The "private:" and "public:" tags must begin
+immediately following a ``/*`` comment marker. They may optionally include
+comments between the ``:`` and the ending ``*/`` marker.
+
+Example::
+
+ /**
+ * struct my_struct - short description
+ * @a: first member
+ * @b: second member
+ *
+ * Longer description
+ */
+ struct my_struct {
+ int a;
+ int b;
+ /* private: internal use only */
+ int c;
+ };
+
+
+Typedef documentation
+---------------------
+
+The general format of a typedef kernel-doc comment is::
+
+ /**
+ * typedef type_name - Brief description.
+ *
+ * Description of the type.
+ */
+
+Overview documentation comments
+-------------------------------
+
+To facilitate having source code and comments close together, you can include
+kernel-doc documentation blocks that are free-form comments instead of being
+kernel-doc for functions, structures, unions, enums, or typedefs. This could be
+used for something like a theory of operation for a driver or library code, for
+example.
+
+This is done by using a ``DOC:`` section keyword with a section title.
+
+The general format of an overview or high-level documentation comment is::
+
+ /**
+ * DOC: Theory of Operation
+ *
+ * The whizbang foobar is a dilly of a gizmo. It can do whatever you
+ * want it to do, at any time. It reads your mind. Here's how it works.
+ *
+ * foo bar splat
+ *
+ * The only drawback to this gizmo is that is can sometimes damage
+ * hardware, software, or its subject(s).
+ */
+
+The title following ``DOC:`` acts as a heading within the source file, but also
+as an identifier for extracting the documentation comment. Thus, the title must
+be unique within the file.
+
+Recommendations
+---------------
+
+We definitely need kernel-doc formatted documentation for functions that are
+exported to loadable modules using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL`` or ``EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL``.
+
+We also look to provide kernel-doc formatted documentation for functions
+externally visible to other kernel files (not marked "static").
+
+We also recommend providing kernel-doc formatted documentation for private (file
+"static") routines, for consistency of kernel source code layout. But this is
+lower priority and at the discretion of the MAINTAINER of that kernel source
+file.
+
+Data structures visible in kernel include files should also be documented using
+kernel-doc formatted comments.
+
+DocBook XML [DEPRECATED]
+========================
+
+.. attention::
+
+ This section describes the deprecated DocBook XML toolchain. Please do not
+ create new DocBook XML template files. Please consider converting existing
+ DocBook XML templates files to Sphinx/reStructuredText.
+
+Converting DocBook to Sphinx
+----------------------------
+
+.. highlight:: none
+
+Over time, we expect all of the documents under ``Documentation/DocBook`` to be
+converted to Sphinx and reStructuredText. For most DocBook XML documents, a good
+enough solution is to use the simple ``Documentation/sphinx/tmplcvt`` script,
+which uses ``pandoc`` under the hood. For example::
+
+ $ cd Documentation/sphinx
+ $ ./tmplcvt ../DocBook/in.tmpl ../out.rst
+
+Then edit the resulting rst files to fix any remaining issues, and add the
+document in the ``toctree`` in ``Documentation/index.rst``.
+
+Components of the kernel-doc system
+-----------------------------------
+
+Many places in the source tree have extractable documentation in the form of
+block comments above functions. The components of this system are:
+
+- ``scripts/kernel-doc``
+
+ This is a perl script that hunts for the block comments and can mark them up
+ directly into reStructuredText, DocBook, man, text, and HTML. (No, not
+ texinfo.)
+
+- ``Documentation/DocBook/*.tmpl``
+
+ These are XML template files, which are normal XML files with special
+ place-holders for where the extracted documentation should go.
+
+- ``scripts/docproc.c``
+
+ This is a program for converting XML template files into XML files. When a
+ file is referenced it is searched for symbols exported (EXPORT_SYMBOL), to be
+ able to distinguish between internal and external functions.
+
+ It invokes kernel-doc, giving it the list of functions that are to be
+ documented.
+
+ Additionally it is used to scan the XML template files to locate all the files
+ referenced herein. This is used to generate dependency information as used by
+ make.
+
+- ``Makefile``
+
+ The targets 'xmldocs', 'psdocs', 'pdfdocs', and 'htmldocs' are used to build
+ DocBook XML files, PostScript files, PDF files, and html files in
+ Documentation/DocBook. The older target 'sgmldocs' is equivalent to 'xmldocs'.
+
+- ``Documentation/DocBook/Makefile``
+
+ This is where C files are associated with SGML templates.
+
+How to use kernel-doc comments in DocBook XML template files
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+DocBook XML template files (\*.tmpl) are like normal XML files, except that they
+can contain escape sequences where extracted documentation should be inserted.
+
+``!E<filename>`` is replaced by the documentation, in ``<filename>``, for
+functions that are exported using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL``: the function list is
+collected from files listed in ``Documentation/DocBook/Makefile``.
+
+``!I<filename>`` is replaced by the documentation for functions that are **not**
+exported using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL``.
+
+``!D<filename>`` is used to name additional files to search for functions
+exported using ``EXPORT_SYMBOL``.
+
+``!F<filename> <function [functions...]>`` is replaced by the documentation, in
+``<filename>``, for the functions listed.
+
+``!P<filename> <section title>`` is replaced by the contents of the ``DOC:``
+section titled ``<section title>`` from ``<filename>``. Spaces are allowed in
+``<section title>``; do not quote the ``<section title>``.
+
+``!C<filename>`` is replaced by nothing, but makes the tools check that all DOC:
+sections and documented functions, symbols, etc. are used. This makes sense to
+use when you use ``!F`` or ``!P`` only and want to verify that all documentation
+is included.

+ :copyright: Copyright (C) 2016 Markus Heiser
+ :license: GPL Version 2, June 1991 see linux/COPYING for details.
+
+ The ``flat-table`` (:py:class:`FlatTable`) is a double-stage list similar to
+ the ``list-table`` with some additional features:
+
+ * *column-span*: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
+ additional columns
+
+ * *row-span*: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
+ additional rows
+
+ * *auto span* rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the
+ right side of that table-row. With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior
+ can changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automaticly inserts
+ (empty) cells instead of spanning the last cell.
+
+ Options:
+
+ * header-rows: [int] count of header rows
+ * stub-columns: [int] count of stub columns
+ * widths: [[int] [int] ... ] widths of columns
+ * fill-cells: instead of autospann missing cells, insert missing cells

遵循下面的惯例:
如果函数的名字是一个动作或者强制性的命令,那么这个函数应该返回错误代码整
数。如果是一个判断,那么函数应该返回一个“成功”布尔值。
-比如,“add work”是一个命令,所以add_work()函数在成功时返回0,在失败时返回-EBUSY。
-类似的,因为“PCI device present”是一个判断,所以pci_dev_present()函数在成功找到
-一个匹配的设备时应该返回1,如果找不到时应该返回0。

+ 第十九章:内联汇编
+
+在特定架构的代码中,你也许需要内联汇编来使用 CPU 接口和平台相关功能。在需要
+这么做时,不要犹豫。然而,当 C 可以完成工作时,不要无端地使用内联汇编。如果
+可能,你可以并且应该用 C 和硬件交互。
+
+考虑去写通用一点的内联汇编作为简明的辅助函数,而不是重复写下它们的细节。记住
+内联汇编可以使用 C 参数。
+
+大而特殊的汇编函数应该放在 .S 文件中,对应 C 的原型定义在 C 头文件中。汇编
+函数的 C 原型应该使用 “asmlinkage”。
+
+你可能需要将你的汇编语句标记为 volatile,来阻止 GCC 在没发现任何副作用后就
+移除了它。你不必总是这样做,虽然,这样可以限制不必要的优化。
+
+在写一个包含多条指令的单个内联汇编语句时,把每条指令用引号字符串分离,并写在
+单独一行,在每个字符串结尾,除了 \n\t 结尾之外,在汇编输出中适当地缩进下
+一条指令:
+
+ asm ("magic %reg1, #42\n\t"
+ "more_magic %reg2, %reg3"
+ : /* outputs */ : /* inputs */ : /* clobbers */);
+
+
+ 第二十章:条件编译
+
+只要可能,就不要在 .c 文件里面使用预处理条件;这样做让代码更难阅读并且逻辑难以
+跟踪。替代方案是,在头文件定义函数在这些 .c 文件中使用这类的条件表达式,提供空
+操作的桩版本(译注:桩程序,是指用来替换一部分功能的程序段)在 #else 情况下,
+再从 .c 文件中无条件地调用这些函数。编译器会避免生成任何桩调用的代码,产生一致
+的结果,但逻辑将更加清晰。
+
+宁可编译整个函数,而不是部分函数或部分表达式。而不是在一个表达式添加 ifdef,
+解析部分或全部表达式到一个单独的辅助函数,并应用条件到该函数内。
+
+如果你有一个在特定配置中可能是未使用的函数或变量,编译器将警告它定义了但未使用,
+标记这个定义为 __maybe_unused 而不是将它包含在一个预处理条件中。(然而,如果
+一个函数或变量总是未使用的,就直接删除它。)
+
+在代码中,可能的情况下,使用 IS_ENABLED 宏来转化某个 Kconfig 标记为 C 的布尔
+表达式,并在正常的 C 条件中使用它:
+
+ if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SOMETHING)) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+编译器会无条件地做常数合并,就像使用 #ifdef 那样,包含或排除代码块,所以这不会
+带来任何运行时开销。然而,这种方法依旧允许 C 编译器查看块内的代码,并检查它的正确
+性(语法,类型,符号引用,等等)。因此,如果条件不满足,代码块内的引用符号将不存在,
+你必须继续使用 #ifdef。
+
+在任何有意义的 #if 或 #ifdef 块的末尾(超过几行),在 #endif 同一行的后面写下
+注释,指出该条件表达式被使用。例如:
+
+ #ifdef CONFIG_SOMETHING
+ ...
+ #endif /* CONFIG_SOMETHING */
