2018-05-11docs: uio-howto.rst: use a code block to solve a warningMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+2
/devel/v4l/docs/Documentation/driver-api/uio-howto.rst:715: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2018-03-06uio_hv_generic: support sub-channelsStephen Hemminger1-0/+5
Use sysfs to allow supporting sub-channels. The userspace application makes request to host to create sub-channels and the UIO kernel driver populates the sysfs per-channel directory with a binary attribute file that can be used to read/write ring.

2018-01-10uio_hv_generic: add rescind supportStephen Hemminger1-0/+4
When host rescinds the device, the UIO driver will clear the interrupt state and notify application. The read (or write) on the interrupt FD will then fail with -EIO. This is simpler than adding lots extra uevent stuff inside UIO. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2018-01-10uio_hv_generic: create send and receive buffersStephen Hemminger1-0/+2
Map in receive and send buffers for networking in UIO device. These buffers are special and need to be setup by kernel API's; userspace can not do it. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2018-01-10uio: document uio_hv_generic regionsStephen Hemminger1-0/+5
Describe the regions present with uio_hv_generic in documentation for driver API. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2018-01-10doc: fix documentation about uio_hv_genericStephen Hemminger1-7/+8
The vmbus sysfs file names changed in commit f6b2db084b65 ("vmbus: make sysfs names consistent with PCI") and the uio documenatation does not match the current names. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2017-01-31doc: convert UIO howto from docbook to sphinxAlexander Dahl1-0/+705
Converted with tmplcvt. Only some tiny things needed manual fixing. Signed-off-by: Alexander Dahl <post@lespocky.de> Cc: Hans-Jürgen Koch <hjk@hansjkoch.de> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
