get paths between endpoints and set their bandwidth/latency/QoS requirements
for these interconnect paths. These interfaces are not currently
documented.

+Interconnect debugfs interfaces
+-------------------------------
+
+Like several other subsystems interconnect will create some files for debugging
+and introspection. Files in debugfs are not considered ABI so application
+software shouldn't rely on format details change between kernel versions.
+
+``/sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_summary``:
+
+Show all interconnect nodes in the system with their aggregated bandwidth
+request. Indented under each node show bandwidth requests from each device.
+
+``/sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_graph``:
+
+Show the interconnect graph in the graphviz dot format. It shows all
+interconnect nodes and links in the system and groups together nodes from the
+same provider as subgraphs. The format is human-readable and can also be piped
+through dot to generate diagrams in many graphical formats::
+
+ $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_graph | \
+ dot -Tsvg > interconnect_graph.svg
