+		S3C24XX CPUfreq support
+		=======================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+ The S3C24XX series support a number of power saving systems, such as
+ the ability to change the core, memory and peripheral operating
+ frequencies. The core control is exported via the CPUFreq driver
+ which has a number of different manual or automatic controls over the
+ rate the core is running at.
+
+ There are two forms of the driver depending on the specific CPU and
+ how the clocks are arranged. The first implementation used as single
+ PLL to feed the ARM, memory and peripherals via a series of dividers
+ and muxes and this is the implementation that is documented here. A
+ newer version where there is a seperate PLL and clock divider for the
+ ARM core is available as a seperate driver.
+
+
+Layout
+------
+
+ The code core manages the CPU specific drivers, any data that they
+ need to register and the interface to the generic drivers/cpufreq
+ system. Each CPU registers a driver to control the PLL, clock dividers
+ and anything else associated with it. Any board that wants to use this
+ framework needs to supply at least basic details of what is required.
+
+ The core registers with drivers/cpufreq at init time if all the data
+ necessary has been supplied.
+
+
+CPU support
+-----------
+
+ The support for each CPU depends on the facilities provided by the
+ SoC and the driver as each device has different PLL and clock chains
+ associated with it.
+
+
+Slow Mode
+---------
+
+ The SLOW mode where the PLL is turned off altogether and the
+ system is fed by the external crystal input is currently not
+ supported.
+
+
+sysfs
+-----
+
+ The core code exports extra information via sysfs in the directory
+ devices/system/cpu/cpu0/arch-freq.
+
+
+Board Support
+-------------
+
+ Each board that wants to use the cpufreq code must register some basic
+ information with the core driver to provide information about what the
+ board requires and any restrictions being placed on it.
+
+ The board needs to supply information about whether it needs the IO bank
+ timings changing, any maximum frequency limits and information about the
+ SDRAM refresh rate.

+Why:	prism54 FullMAC PCI / Cardbus devices used to be supported only by the
+	prism54 wireless driver. After Intersil stopped selling these
+	devices in preference for the newer more flexible SoftMAC devices
+	a SoftMAC device driver was required and prism54 did not support
+	them. The p54pci driver now exists and has been present in the kernel for
+	a while. This driver supports both SoftMAC devices and FullMAC devices.
+	The main difference between these devices was the amount of memory which
+	could be used for the firmware. The SoftMAC devices support a smaller
+	amount of memory. Because of this the SoftMAC firmware fits into FullMAC
+	devices's memory. p54pci supports not only PCI / Cardbus but also USB
+	and SPI. Since p54pci supports all devices prism54 supports
+	you will have a conflict. I'm not quite sure how distributions are
+	handling this conflict right now. prism54 was kept around due to
+	claims users may experience issues when using the SoftMAC driver.
+	Time has passed users have not reported issues. If you use prism54

+A list of GFS2 uevents
+-----------------------
+
+1. ADD
+
+The ADD event occurs at mount time. It will always be the first
+uevent generated by the newly created filesystem. If the mount
+is successful, an ONLINE uevent will follow.  If it is not successful
+then a REMOVE uevent will follow.
+
+The ADD uevent has two environment variables: SPECTATOR=[0|1]
+and RDONLY=[0|1] that specify the spectator status (a read-only mount
+with no journal assigned), and read-only (with journal assigned) status
+of the filesystem respectively.
+
+2. ONLINE
+
+The ONLINE uevent is generated after a successful mount or remount. It
+has the same environment variables as the ADD uevent. The ONLINE
+uevent, along with the two environment variables for spectator and
+RDONLY are a relatively recent addition (2.6.32-rc+) and will not
+be generated by older kernels.
+
+3. CHANGE
+
+The CHANGE uevent is used in two places. One is when reporting the
+successful mount of the filesystem by the first node (FIRSTMOUNT=Done).
+This is used as a signal by gfs_controld that it is then ok for other
+nodes in the cluster to mount the filesystem.
+
+The other CHANGE uevent is used to inform of the completion
+of journal recovery for one of the filesystems journals. It has
+two environment variables, JID= which specifies the journal id which
+has just been recovered, and RECOVERY=[Done|Failed] to indicate the
+success (or otherwise) of the operation. These uevents are generated
+for every journal recovered, whether it is during the initial mount
+process or as the result of gfs_controld requesting a specific journal
+recovery via the /sys/fs/gfs2/<fsname>/lock_module/recovery file.
+
+Because the CHANGE uevent was used (in early versions of gfs_controld)
+without checking the environment variables to discover the state, we
+cannot add any more functions to it without running the risk of
+someone using an older version of the user tools and breaking their
+cluster. For this reason the ONLINE uevent was used when adding a new
+uevent for a successful mount or remount.
+
+4. OFFLINE
+
+The OFFLINE uevent is only generated due to filesystem errors and is used
+as part of the "withdraw" mechanism. Currently this doesn't give any
+information about what the error is, which is something that needs to
+be fixed.
+
+5. REMOVE
+
+The REMOVE uevent is generated at the end of an unsuccessful mount
+or at the end of a umount of the filesystem. All REMOVE uevents will
+have been preceeded by at least an ADD uevent for the same fileystem,
+and unlike the other uevents is generated automatically by the kernel's
+kobject subsystem.
+
+
+Information common to all GFS2 uevents (uevent environment variables)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+1. LOCKTABLE=
+
+The LOCKTABLE is a string, as supplied on the mount command
+line (locktable=) or via fstab. It is used as a filesystem label
+as well as providing the information for a lock_dlm mount to be
+able to join the cluster.
+
+2. LOCKPROTO=
+
+The LOCKPROTO is a string, and its value depends on what is set
+on the mount command line, or via fstab. It will be either
+lock_nolock or lock_dlm. In the future other lock managers
+may be supported.
+
+3. JOURNALID=
+
+If a journal is in use by the filesystem (journals are not
+assigned for spectator mounts) then this will give the
+numeric journal id in all GFS2 uevents.
+
+4. UUID=
+
+With recent versions of gfs2-utils, mkfs.gfs2 writes a UUID
+into the filesystem superblock. If it exists, this will
+be included in every uevent relating to the filesystem.

+
+The NFS client
+==============
+
+The NFS version 2 protocol was first documented in RFC1094 (March 1989).
+Since then two more major releases of NFS have been published, with NFSv3
+being documented in RFC1813 (June 1995), and NFSv4 in RFC3530 (April
+2003).
+
+The Linux NFS client currently supports all the above published versions,
+and work is in progress on adding support for minor version 1 of the NFSv4
+protocol.
+
+The purpose of this document is to provide information on some of the
+upcall interfaces that are used in order to provide the NFS client with
+some of the information that it requires in order to fully comply with
+the NFS spec.
+
+The DNS resolver
+================
+
+NFSv4 allows for one server to refer the NFS client to data that has been
+migrated onto another server by means of the special "fs_locations"
+attribute. See
+	http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3530#section-6
+and
+	http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-nfsv4-referrals-00
+
+The fs_locations information can take the form of either an ip address and
+a path, or a DNS hostname and a path. The latter requires the NFS client to
+do a DNS lookup in order to mount the new volume, and hence the need for an
+upcall to allow userland to provide this service.
+
+Assuming that the user has the 'rpc_pipefs' filesystem mounted in the usual
+/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs, the upcall consists of the following steps:
+
+   (1) The process checks the dns_resolve cache to see if it contains a
+       valid entry. If so, it returns that entry and exits.
+
+   (2) If no valid entry exists, the helper script '/sbin/nfs_cache_getent'
+       (may be changed using the 'nfs.cache_getent' kernel boot parameter)
+       is run, with two arguments:
+		- the cache name, "dns_resolve"
+		- the hostname to resolve
+
+   (3) After looking up the corresponding ip address, the helper script
+       writes the result into the rpc_pipefs pseudo-file
+       '/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs/cache/dns_resolve/channel'
+       in the following (text) format:
+
+		"<ip address> <hostname> <ttl>\n"
+
+       Where <ip address> is in the usual IPv4 (123.456.78.90) or IPv6
+       (ffee:ddcc:bbaa:9988:7766:5544:3322:1100, ffee::1100, ...) format.
+       <hostname> is identical to the second argument of the helper
+       script, and <ttl> is the 'time to live' of this cache entry (in
+       units of seconds).
+
+       Note: If <ip address> is invalid, say the string "0", then a negative
+       entry is created, which will cause the kernel to treat the hostname
+       as having no valid DNS translation.
+
+
+
+
+A basic sample /sbin/nfs_cache_getent
+=====================================
+
+#!/bin/bash
+#
+ttl=600
+#
+cut=/usr/bin/cut
+getent=/usr/bin/getent
+rpc_pipefs=/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs

+Using flexible arrays in the kernel
+Last updated for 2.6.31
+Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
+
+Large contiguous memory allocations can be unreliable in the Linux kernel.
+Kernel programmers will sometimes respond to this problem by allocating
+pages with vmalloc().  This solution not ideal, though.  On 32-bit systems,
+memory from vmalloc() must be mapped into a relatively small address space;
+it's easy to run out.  On SMP systems, the page table changes required by
+vmalloc() allocations can require expensive cross-processor interrupts on
+all CPUs.  And, on all systems, use of space in the vmalloc() range
+increases pressure on the translation lookaside buffer (TLB), reducing the
+performance of the system.
+
+In many cases, the need for memory from vmalloc() can be eliminated by
+piecing together an array from smaller parts; the flexible array library
+exists to make this task easier.
+
+A flexible array holds an arbitrary (within limits) number of fixed-sized
+objects, accessed via an integer index.  Sparse arrays are handled
+reasonably well.  Only single-page allocations are made, so memory
+allocation failures should be relatively rare.  The down sides are that the
+arrays cannot be indexed directly, individual object size cannot exceed the
+system page size, and putting data into a flexible array requires a copy
+operation.  It's also worth noting that flexible arrays do no internal
+locking at all; if concurrent access to an array is possible, then the
+caller must arrange for appropriate mutual exclusion.
+
+The creation of a flexible array is done with:
+
+    #include <linux/flex_array.h>
+
+    struct flex_array *flex_array_alloc(int element_size,
+					unsigned int total,
+					gfp_t flags);
+
+The individual object size is provided by element_size, while total is the
+maximum number of objects which can be stored in the array.  The flags
+argument is passed directly to the internal memory allocation calls.  With
+the current code, using flags to ask for high memory is likely to lead to
+notably unpleasant side effects.
+
+Storing data into a flexible array is accomplished with a call to:
+
+    int flex_array_put(struct flex_array *array, unsigned int element_nr,
+    		       void *src, gfp_t flags);
+
+This call will copy the data from src into the array, in the position
+indicated by element_nr (which must be less than the maximum specified when
+the array was created).  If any memory allocations must be performed, flags
+will be used.  The return value is zero on success, a negative error code
+otherwise.
+
+There might possibly be a need to store data into a flexible array while
+running in some sort of atomic context; in this situation, sleeping in the
+memory allocator would be a bad thing.  That can be avoided by using
+GFP_ATOMIC for the flags value, but, often, there is a better way.  The
+trick is to ensure that any needed memory allocations are done before
+entering atomic context, using:
+
+    int flex_array_prealloc(struct flex_array *array, unsigned int start,
+			    unsigned int end, gfp_t flags);
+
+This function will ensure that memory for the elements indexed in the range
+defined by start and end has been allocated.  Thereafter, a
+flex_array_put() call on an element in that range is guaranteed not to
+block.
+
+Getting data back out of the array is done with:
+
+    void *flex_array_get(struct flex_array *fa, unsigned int element_nr);
+
+The return value is a pointer to the data element, or NULL if that
+particular element has never been allocated.
+
+Note that it is possible to get back a valid pointer for an element which
+has never been stored in the array.  Memory for array elements is allocated
+one page at a time; a single allocation could provide memory for several
+adjacent elements.  The flexible array code does not know if a specific
+element has been written; it only knows if the associated memory is
+present.  So a flex_array_get() call on an element which was never stored
+in the array has the potential to return a pointer to random data.  If the
+caller does not have a separate way to know which elements were actually
+stored, it might be wise, at least, to add GFP_ZERO to the flags argument
+to ensure that all elements are zeroed.
+
+There is no way to remove a single element from the array.  It is possible,
+though, to remove all elements with a call to:
+
+    void flex_array_free_parts(struct flex_array *array);
+
+This call frees all elements, but leaves the array itself in place.
+Freeing the entire array is done with:
+
+    void flex_array_free(struct flex_array *array);
+
+As of this writing, there are no users of flexible arrays in the mainline
+kernel.  The functions described here are also not exported to modules;
+that will probably be fixed when somebody comes up with a need for it.

+ - VM ioctls: These query and set attributes that affect an entire virtual
+   machine, for example memory layout.  In addition a VM ioctl is used to
+   create virtual cpus (vcpus).
+
+   Only run VM ioctls from the same process (address space) that was used
+   to create the VM.
+
+ - vcpu ioctls: These query and set attributes that control the operation
+   of a single virtual cpu.
+
+   Only run vcpu ioctls from the same thread that was used to create the
+   vcpu.
+
+2. File descritpors
+
+The kvm API is centered around file descriptors.  An initial
+open("/dev/kvm") obtains a handle to the kvm subsystem; this handle
+can be used to issue system ioctls.  A KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl on this
+handle will create a VM file descripror which can be used to issue VM
+ioctls.  A KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl on a VM fd will create a virtual cpu
+and return a file descriptor pointing to it.  Finally, ioctls on a vcpu
+fd can be used to control the vcpu, including the important task of
+actually running guest code.
+
+In general file descriptors can be migrated among processes by means
+of fork() and the SCM_RIGHTS facility of unix domain socket.  These
+kinds of tricks are explicitly not supported by kvm.  While they will
+not cause harm to the host, their actual behavior is not guaranteed by
+the API.  The only supported use is one virtual machine per process,
+and one vcpu per thread.
+
+3. Extensions
+
+As of Linux 2.6.22, the KVM ABI has been stabilized: no backward
+incompatible change are allowed.  However, there is an extension
+facility that allows backward-compatible extensions to the API to be
+queried and used.
+
+The extension mechanism is not based on on the Linux version number.
+Instead, kvm defines extension identifiers and a facility to query
+whether a particular extension identifier is available.  If it is, a
+set of ioctls is available for application use.
+
+4. API description
+
+This section describes ioctls that can be used to control kvm guests.
+For each ioctl, the following information is provided along with a
+description:
+
+  Capability: which KVM extension provides this ioctl.  Can be 'basic',
+      which means that is will be provided by any kernel that supports
+      API version 12 (see section 4.1), or a KVM_CAP_xyz constant, which
+      means availability needs to be checked with KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
+      (see section 4.4).
+
+  Architectures: which instruction set architectures provide this ioctl.
+      x86 includes both i386 and x86_64.
+
+  Type: system, vm, or vcpu.
+
+  Parameters: what parameters are accepted by the ioctl.
+
+  Returns: the return value.  General error numbers (EBADF, ENOMEM, EINVAL)
+      are not detailed, but errors with specific meanings are.
+
+4.1 KVM_GET_API_VERSION
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: system ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: the constant KVM_API_VERSION (=12)
+
+This identifies the API version as the stable kvm API. It is not
+expected that this number will change.  However, Linux 2.6.20 and
+2.6.21 report earlier versions; these are not documented and not
+supported.  Applications should refuse to run if KVM_GET_API_VERSION
+returns a value other than 12.  If this check passes, all ioctls
+described as 'basic' will be available.
+
+4.2 KVM_CREATE_VM
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: system ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: a VM fd that can be used to control the new virtual machine.
+
+The new VM has no virtual cpus and no memory.  An mmap() of a VM fd
+will access the virtual machine's physical address space; offset zero
+corresponds to guest physical address zero.  Use of mmap() on a VM fd
+is discouraged if userspace memory allocation (KVM_CAP_USER_MEMORY) is
+available.
+
+4.3 KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: system
+Parameters: struct kvm_msr_list (in/out)
+Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
+Errors:
+  E2BIG:     the msr index list is to be to fit in the array specified by
+             the user.
+
+struct kvm_msr_list {
+	__u32 nmsrs; /* number of msrs in entries */
+	__u32 indices[0];
+};
+
+This ioctl returns the guest msrs that are supported.  The list varies
+by kvm version and host processor, but does not change otherwise.  The
+user fills in the size of the indices array in nmsrs, and in return
+kvm adjusts nmsrs to reflect the actual number of msrs and fills in
+the indices array with their numbers.
+
+4.4 KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: system ioctl
+Parameters: extension identifier (KVM_CAP_*)
+Returns: 0 if unsupported; 1 (or some other positive integer) if supported
+
+The API allows the application to query about extensions to the core
+kvm API.  Userspace passes an extension identifier (an integer) and
+receives an integer that describes the extension availability.
+Generally 0 means no and 1 means yes, but some extensions may report
+additional information in the integer return value.
+
+4.5 KVM_GET_VCPU_MMAP_SIZE
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: system ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: size of vcpu mmap area, in bytes
+
+The KVM_RUN ioctl (cf.) communicates with userspace via a shared
+memory region.  This ioctl returns the size of that region.  See the
+KVM_RUN documentation for details.
+
+4.6 KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_memory_region (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+struct kvm_memory_region {
+	__u32 slot;
+	__u32 flags;
+	__u64 guest_phys_addr;
+	__u64 memory_size; /* bytes */
+};
+
+/* for kvm_memory_region::flags */
+#define KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES  1UL
+
+This ioctl allows the user to create or modify a guest physical memory
+slot.  When changing an existing slot, it may be moved in the guest
+physical memory space, or its flags may be modified.  It may not be
+resized.  Slots may not overlap.
+
+The flags field supports just one flag, KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES, which
+instructs kvm to keep track of writes to memory within the slot.  See
+the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl.
+
+It is recommended to use the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION ioctl instead
+of this API, if available.  This newer API allows placing guest memory
+at specified locations in the host address space, yielding better
+control and easy access.
+
+4.6 KVM_CREATE_VCPU
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: vcpu id (apic id on x86)
+Returns: vcpu fd on success, -1 on error
+
+This API adds a vcpu to a virtual machine.  The vcpu id is a small integer
+in the range [0, max_vcpus).
+
+4.7 KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG (vm ioctl)
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_dirty_log (in/out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+/* for KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG */
+struct kvm_dirty_log {
+	__u32 slot;
+	__u32 padding;
+	union {
+		void __user *dirty_bitmap; /* one bit per page */
+		__u64 padding;
+	};
+};
+
+Given a memory slot, return a bitmap containing any pages dirtied
+since the last call to this ioctl.  Bit 0 is the first page in the
+memory slot.  Ensure the entire structure is cleared to avoid padding
+issues.
+
+4.8 KVM_SET_MEMORY_ALIAS
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_memory_alias (in)
+Returns: 0 (success), -1 (error)
+
+struct kvm_memory_alias {
+	__u32 slot;  /* this has a different namespace than memory slots */
+	__u32 flags;
+	__u64 guest_phys_addr;
+	__u64 memory_size;
+	__u64 target_phys_addr;
+};
+
+Defines a guest physical address space region as an alias to another
+region.  Useful for aliased address, for example the VGA low memory
+window. Should not be used with userspace memory.
+
+4.9 KVM_RUN
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+Errors:
+  EINTR:     an unmasked signal is pending
+
+This ioctl is used to run a guest virtual cpu.  While there are no
+explicit parameters, there is an implicit parameter block that can be
+obtained by mmap()ing the vcpu fd at offset 0, with the size given by
+KVM_GET_VCPU_MMAP_SIZE.  The parameter block is formatted as a 'struct
+kvm_run' (see below).
+
+4.10 KVM_GET_REGS
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: all
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_regs (out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Reads the general purpose registers from the vcpu.
+
+/* x86 */
+struct kvm_regs {
+	/* out (KVM_GET_REGS) / in (KVM_SET_REGS) */
+	__u64 rax, rbx, rcx, rdx;
+	__u64 rsi, rdi, rsp, rbp;
+	__u64 r8,  r9,  r10, r11;
+	__u64 r12, r13, r14, r15;

+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_sregs (out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Reads special registers from the vcpu.
+
+/* x86 */
+struct kvm_sregs {
+	struct kvm_segment cs, ds, es, fs, gs, ss;
+	struct kvm_segment tr, ldt;
+	struct kvm_dtable gdt, idt;
+	__u64 cr0, cr2, cr3, cr4, cr8;
+	__u64 efer;
+	__u64 apic_base;
+	__u64 interrupt_bitmap[(KVM_NR_INTERRUPTS + 63) / 64];
+};
+
+interrupt_bitmap is a bitmap of pending external interrupts.  At most
+one bit may be set.  This interrupt has been acknowledged by the APIC
+but not yet injected into the cpu core.

+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_interrupt (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Queues a hardware interrupt vector to be injected.  This is only
+useful if in-kernel local APIC is not used.
+
+/* for KVM_INTERRUPT */
+struct kvm_interrupt {
+	/* in */
+	__u32 irq;
+};
+
+Note 'irq' is an interrupt vector, not an interrupt pin or line.
+
+4.16 KVM_DEBUG_GUEST
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: none
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: none)
+Returns: -1 on error
+
+Support for this has been removed.  Use KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG instead.
+
+4.17 KVM_GET_MSRS
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_msrs (in/out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error

+	__u32 pad;
+
+	struct kvm_msr_entry entries[0];
+};
+
+struct kvm_msr_entry {
+	__u32 index;
+	__u32 reserved;
+	__u64 data;
+};
+
+Application code should set the 'nmsrs' member (which indicates the
+size of the entries array) and the 'index' member of each array entry.
+kvm will fill in the 'data' member.
+
+4.18 KVM_SET_MSRS
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_msrs (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Writes model-specific registers to the vcpu.  See KVM_GET_MSRS for the
+data structures.
+
+Application code should set the 'nmsrs' member (which indicates the
+size of the entries array), and the 'index' and 'data' members of each
+array entry.
+
+4.19 KVM_SET_CPUID
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_cpuid (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Defines the vcpu responses to the cpuid instruction.  Applications
+should use the KVM_SET_CPUID2 ioctl if available.

+
+4.20 KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK
+
+Capability: basic
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vcpu ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_signal_mask (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Defines which signals are blocked during execution of KVM_RUN.  This
+signal mask temporarily overrides the threads signal mask.  Any
+unblocked signal received (except SIGKILL and SIGSTOP, which retain
+their traditional behaviour) will cause KVM_RUN to return with -EINTR.
+
+Note the signal will only be delivered if not blocked by the original
+signal mask.
+
+/* for KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK */
+struct kvm_signal_mask {
+	__u32 len;
+	__u8  sigset[0];

+
+4.23 KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP
+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: none
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Creates an interrupt controller model in the kernel.  On x86, creates a virtual
+ioapic, a virtual PIC (two PICs, nested), and sets up future vcpus to have a
+local APIC.  IRQ routing for GSIs 0-15 is set to both PIC and IOAPIC; GSI 16-23
+only go to the IOAPIC.  On ia64, a IOSAPIC is created.
+
+4.24 KVM_IRQ_LINE
+
+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irq_level
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Sets the level of a GSI input to the interrupt controller model in the kernel.
+Requires that an interrupt controller model has been previously created with
+KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP.  Note that edge-triggered interrupts require the level
+to be set to 1 and then back to 0.
+
+struct kvm_irq_level {
+	union {
+		__u32 irq;     /* GSI */
+		__s32 status;  /* not used for KVM_IRQ_LEVEL */

+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irqchip (in/out)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Reads the state of a kernel interrupt controller created with
+KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP into a buffer provided by the caller.

+Capability: KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP
+Architectures: x86, ia64
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: struct kvm_irqchip (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error

+		struct kvm_pic_state pic;
+		struct kvm_ioapic_state ioapic;
+	} chip;
+};
+
+5. The kvm_run structure
+
+Application code obtains a pointer to the kvm_run structure by
+mmap()ing a vcpu fd.  From that point, application code can control
+execution by changing fields in kvm_run prior to calling the KVM_RUN
+ioctl, and obtain information about the reason KVM_RUN returned by
+looking up structure members.
+
+struct kvm_run {
+	/* in */
+	__u8 request_interrupt_window;
+
+Request that KVM_RUN return when it becomes possible to inject external
+interrupts into the guest.  Useful in conjunction with KVM_INTERRUPT.
+
+	__u8 padding1[7];
+
+	/* out */
+	__u32 exit_reason;
+
+When KVM_RUN has returned successfully (return value 0), this informs
+application code why KVM_RUN has returned.  Allowable values for this
+field are detailed below.
+
+	__u8 ready_for_interrupt_injection;
+
+If request_interrupt_window has been specified, this field indicates
+an interrupt can be injected now with KVM_INTERRUPT.
+
+	__u8 if_flag;
+
+The value of the current interrupt flag.  Only valid if in-kernel
+local APIC is not used.
+

+The value of the cr8 register.  Only valid if in-kernel local APIC is
+not used.  Both input and output.
+
+	__u64 apic_base;
+
+The value of the APIC BASE msr.  Only valid if in-kernel local
+APIC is not used.  Both input and output.
+
+	union {
+		/* KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN */
+		struct {
+			__u64 hardware_exit_reason;
+		} hw;
+
+If exit_reason is KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN, the vcpu has exited due to unknown
+reasons.  Further architecture-specific information is available in
+hardware_exit_reason.
+
+		/* KVM_EXIT_FAIL_ENTRY */
+		struct {
+			__u64 hardware_entry_failure_reason;
+		} fail_entry;
+
+If exit_reason is KVM_EXIT_FAIL_ENTRY, the vcpu could not be run due
+to unknown reasons.  Further architecture-specific information is
+available in hardware_entry_failure_reason.

+
+If exit_reason is KVM_EXIT_IO_IN or KVM_EXIT_IO_OUT, then the vcpu has
+executed a port I/O instruction which could not be satisfied by kvm.
+data_offset describes where the data is located (KVM_EXIT_IO_OUT) or
+where kvm expects application code to place the data for the next
+KVM_RUN invocation (KVM_EXIT_IO_IN).  Data format is a patcked array.

+Run-time Power Management Framework for I/O Devices
+
+(C) 2009 Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>, Novell Inc.
+
+1. Introduction
+
+Support for run-time power management (run-time PM) of I/O devices is provided
+at the power management core (PM core) level by means of:
+
+* The power management workqueue pm_wq in which bus types and device drivers can
+  put their PM-related work items.  It is strongly recommended that pm_wq be
+  used for queuing all work items related to run-time PM, because this allows
+  them to be synchronized with system-wide power transitions (suspend to RAM,
+  hibernation and resume from system sleep states).  pm_wq is declared in
+  include/linux/pm_runtime.h and defined in kernel/power/main.c.
+
+* A number of run-time PM fields in the 'power' member of 'struct device' (which
+  is of the type 'struct dev_pm_info', defined in include/linux/pm.h) that can
+  be used for synchronizing run-time PM operations with one another.
+
+* Three device run-time PM callbacks in 'struct dev_pm_ops' (defined in
+  include/linux/pm.h).
+
+* A set of helper functions defined in drivers/base/power/runtime.c that can be
+  used for carrying out run-time PM operations in such a way that the
+  synchronization between them is taken care of by the PM core.  Bus types and
+  device drivers are encouraged to use these functions.
+
+The run-time PM callbacks present in 'struct dev_pm_ops', the device run-time PM
+fields of 'struct dev_pm_info' and the core helper functions provided for
+run-time PM are described below.
+
+2. Device Run-time PM Callbacks
+
+There are three device run-time PM callbacks defined in 'struct dev_pm_ops':
+
+struct dev_pm_ops {
+	...
+	int (*runtime_suspend)(struct device *dev);
+	int (*runtime_resume)(struct device *dev);
+	void (*runtime_idle)(struct device *dev);
+	...
+};
+
+The ->runtime_suspend() callback is executed by the PM core for the bus type of
+the device being suspended.  The bus type's callback is then _entirely_
+_responsible_ for handling the device as appropriate, which may, but need not
+include executing the device driver's own ->runtime_suspend() callback (from the
+PM core's point of view it is not necessary to implement a ->runtime_suspend()
+callback in a device driver as long as the bus type's ->runtime_suspend() knows
+what to do to handle the device).
+
+  * Once the bus type's ->runtime_suspend() callback has completed successfully
+    for given device, the PM core regards the device as suspended, which need
+    not mean that the device has been put into a low power state.  It is
+    supposed to mean, however, that the device will not process data and will
+    not communicate with the CPU(s) and RAM until its bus type's
+    ->runtime_resume() callback is executed for it.  The run-time PM status of
+    a device after successful execution of its bus type's ->runtime_suspend()
+    callback is 'suspended'.
+
+  * If the bus type's ->runtime_suspend() callback returns -EBUSY or -EAGAIN,
+    the device's run-time PM status is supposed to be 'active', which means that
+    the device _must_ be fully operational afterwards.
+
+  * If the bus type's ->runtime_suspend() callback returns an error code
+    different from -EBUSY or -EAGAIN, the PM core regards this as a fatal
+    error and will refuse to run the helper functions described in Section 4
+    for the device, until the status of it is directly set either to 'active'
+    or to 'suspended' (the PM core provides special helper functions for this
+    purpose).
+
+In particular, if the driver requires remote wakeup capability for proper
+functioning and device_may_wakeup() returns 'false' for the device, then
+->runtime_suspend() should return -EBUSY.  On the other hand, if
+device_may_wakeup() returns 'true' for the device and the device is put
+into a low power state during the execution of its bus type's
+->runtime_suspend(), it is expected that remote wake-up (i.e. hardware mechanism
+allowing the device to request a change of its power state, such as PCI PME)
+will be enabled for the device.  Generally, remote wake-up should be enabled
+for all input devices put into a low power state at run time.
+
+The ->runtime_resume() callback is executed by the PM core for the bus type of
+the device being woken up.  The bus type's callback is then _entirely_
+_responsible_ for handling the device as appropriate, which may, but need not
+include executing the device driver's own ->runtime_resume() callback (from the
+PM core's point of view it is not necessary to implement a ->runtime_resume()
+callback in a device driver as long as the bus type's ->runtime_resume() knows
+what to do to handle the device).
+
+  * Once the bus type's ->runtime_resume() callback has completed successfully,
+    the PM core regards the device as fully operational, which means that the
+    device _must_ be able to complete I/O operations as needed.  The run-time
+    PM status of the device is then 'active'.
+
+  * If the bus type's ->runtime_resume() callback returns an error code, the PM
+    core regards this as a fatal error and will refuse to run the helper
+    functions described in Section 4 for the device, until its status is
+    directly set either to 'active' or to 'suspended' (the PM core provides
+    special helper functions for this purpose).
+
+The ->runtime_idle() callback is executed by the PM core for the bus type of
+given device whenever the device appears to be idle, which is indicated to the
+PM core by two counters, the device's usage counter and the counter of 'active'
+children of the device.
+
+  * If any of these counters is decreased using a helper function provided by
+    the PM core and it turns out to be equal to zero, the other counter is
+    checked.  If that counter also is equal to zero, the PM core executes the
+    device bus type's ->runtime_idle() callback (with the device as an
+    argument).
+
+The action performed by a bus type's ->runtime_idle() callback is totally
+dependent on the bus type in question, but the expected and recommended action
+is to check if the device can be suspended (i.e. if all of the conditions
+necessary for suspending the device are satisfied) and to queue up a suspend
+request for the device in that case.
+
+The helper functions provided by the PM core, described in Section 4, guarantee
+that the following constraints are met with respect to the bus type's run-time
+PM callbacks:
+
+(1) The callbacks are mutually exclusive (e.g. it is forbidden to execute
+    ->runtime_suspend() in parallel with ->runtime_resume() or with another
+    instance of ->runtime_suspend() for the same device) with the exception that
+    ->runtime_suspend() or ->runtime_resume() can be executed in parallel with
+    ->runtime_idle() (although ->runtime_idle() will not be started while any
+    of the other callbacks is being executed for the same device).
+
+(2) ->runtime_idle() and ->runtime_suspend() can only be executed for 'active'
+    devices (i.e. the PM core will only execute ->runtime_idle() or
+    ->runtime_suspend() for the devices the run-time PM status of which is
+    'active').
+
+(3) ->runtime_idle() and ->runtime_suspend() can only be executed for a device
+    the usage counter of which is equal to zero _and_ either the counter of
+    'active' children of which is equal to zero, or the 'power.ignore_children'
+    flag of which is set.
+
+(4) ->runtime_resume() can only be executed for 'suspended' devices  (i.e. the
+    PM core will only execute ->runtime_resume() for the devices the run-time
+    PM status of which is 'suspended').
+
+Additionally, the helper functions provided by the PM core obey the following
+rules:
+
+  * If ->runtime_suspend() is about to be executed or there's a pending request
+    to execute it, ->runtime_idle() will not be executed for the same device.
+
+  * A request to execute or to schedule the execution of ->runtime_suspend()
+    will cancel any pending requests to execute ->runtime_idle() for the same
+    device.
+
+  * If ->runtime_resume() is about to be executed or there's a pending request
+    to execute it, the other callbacks will not be executed for the same device.
+
+  * A request to execute ->runtime_resume() will cancel any pending or
+    scheduled requests to execute the other callbacks for the same device.
+
+3. Run-time PM Device Fields
+
+The following device run-time PM fields are present in 'struct dev_pm_info', as
+defined in include/linux/pm.h:
+
+  struct timer_list suspend_timer;
+    - timer used for scheduling (delayed) suspend request
+
+  unsigned long timer_expires;
+    - timer expiration time, in jiffies (if this is different from zero, the
+      timer is running and will expire at that time, otherwise the timer is not
+      running)
+
+  struct work_struct work;
+    - work structure used for queuing up requests (i.e. work items in pm_wq)
+
+  wait_queue_head_t wait_queue;
+    - wait queue used if any of the helper functions needs to wait for another
+      one to complete
+
+  spinlock_t lock;
+    - lock used for synchronisation
+
+  atomic_t usage_count;
+    - the usage counter of the device
+
+  atomic_t child_count;
+    - the count of 'active' children of the device
+
+  unsigned int ignore_children;
+    - if set, the value of child_count is ignored (but still updated)
+
+  unsigned int disable_depth;
+    - used for disabling the helper funcions (they work normally if this is
+      equal to zero); the initial value of it is 1 (i.e. run-time PM is
+      initially disabled for all devices)
+
+  unsigned int runtime_error;
+    - if set, there was a fatal error (one of the callbacks returned error code
+      as described in Section 2), so the helper funtions will not work until
+      this flag is cleared; this is the error code returned by the failing
+      callback
+
+  unsigned int idle_notification;
+    - if set, ->runtime_idle() is being executed
+
+  unsigned int request_pending;
+    - if set, there's a pending request (i.e. a work item queued up into pm_wq)
+
+  enum rpm_request request;
+    - type of request that's pending (valid if request_pending is set)
+
+  unsigned int deferred_resume;
+    - set if ->runtime_resume() is about to be run while ->runtime_suspend() is
+      being executed for that device and it is not practical to wait for the
+      suspend to complete; means "start a resume as soon as you've suspended"
+
+  enum rpm_status runtime_status;
+    - the run-time PM status of the device; this field's initial value is
+      RPM_SUSPENDED, which means that each device is initially regarded by the
+      PM core as 'suspended', regardless of its real hardware status
+
+All of the above fields are members of the 'power' member of 'struct device'.
+
+4. Run-time PM Device Helper Functions
+
+The following run-time PM helper functions are defined in
+drivers/base/power/runtime.c and include/linux/pm_runtime.h:
+
+  void pm_runtime_init(struct device *dev);
+    - initialize the device run-time PM fields in 'struct dev_pm_info'
+
+  void pm_runtime_remove(struct device *dev);
+    - make sure that the run-time PM of the device will be disabled after
+      removing the device from device hierarchy
+
+  int pm_runtime_idle(struct device *dev);
+    - execute ->runtime_idle() for the device's bus type; returns 0 on success
+      or error code on failure, where -EINPROGRESS means that ->runtime_idle()
+      is already being executed
+
+  int pm_runtime_suspend(struct device *dev);
+    - execute ->runtime_suspend() for the device's bus type; returns 0 on
+      success, 1 if the device's run-time PM status was already 'suspended', or
+      error code on failure, where -EAGAIN or -EBUSY means it is safe to attempt
+      to suspend the device again in future
+
+  int pm_runtime_resume(struct device *dev);
+    - execute ->runtime_resume() for the device's bus type; returns 0 on
+      success, 1 if the device's run-time PM status was already 'active' or
+      error code on failure, where -EAGAIN means it may be safe to attempt to
+      resume the device again in future, but 'power.runtime_error' should be
+      checked additionally
+
+  int pm_request_idle(struct device *dev);
+    - submit a request to execute ->runtime_idle() for the device's bus type
+      (the request is represented by a work item in pm_wq); returns 0 on success
+      or error code if the request has not been queued up
+
+  int pm_schedule_suspend(struct device *dev, unsigned int delay);
+    - schedule the execution of ->runtime_suspend() for the device's bus type
+      in future, where 'delay' is the time to wait before queuing up a suspend
+      work item in pm_wq, in milliseconds (if 'delay' is zero, the work item is
+      queued up immediately); returns 0 on success, 1 if the device's PM
+      run-time status was already 'suspended', or error code if the request
+      hasn't been scheduled (or queued up if 'delay' is 0); if the execution of
+      ->runtime_suspend() is already scheduled and not yet expired, the new
+      value of 'delay' will be used as the time to wait
+
+  int pm_request_resume(struct device *dev);
+    - submit a request to execute ->runtime_resume() for the device's bus type
+      (the request is represented by a work item in pm_wq); returns 0 on
+      success, 1 if the device's run-time PM status was already 'active', or
+      error code if the request hasn't been queued up
+
+  void pm_runtime_get_noresume(struct device *dev);
+    - increment the device's usage counter
+
+  int pm_runtime_get(struct device *dev);
+    - increment the device's usage counter, run pm_request_resume(dev) and
+      return its result
+
+  int pm_runtime_get_sync(struct device *dev);
+    - increment the device's usage counter, run pm_runtime_resume(dev) and
+      return its result
+
+  void pm_runtime_put_noidle(struct device *dev);
+    - decrement the device's usage counter
+
+  int pm_runtime_put(struct device *dev);
+    - decrement the device's usage counter, run pm_request_idle(dev) and return
+      its result
+
+  int pm_runtime_put_sync(struct device *dev);
+    - decrement the device's usage counter, run pm_runtime_idle(dev) and return
+      its result
+
+  void pm_runtime_enable(struct device *dev);
+    - enable the run-time PM helper functions to run the device bus type's
+      run-time PM callbacks described in Section 2
+
+  int pm_runtime_disable(struct device *dev);
+    - prevent the run-time PM helper functions from running the device bus
+      type's run-time PM callbacks, make sure that all of the pending run-time
+      PM operations on the device are either completed or canceled; returns
+      1 if there was a resume request pending and it was necessary to execute
+      ->runtime_resume() for the device's bus type to satisfy that request,
+      otherwise 0 is returned
+
+  void pm_suspend_ignore_children(struct device *dev, bool enable);
+    - set/unset the power.ignore_children flag of the device
+
+  int pm_runtime_set_active(struct device *dev);
+    - clear the device's 'power.runtime_error' flag, set the device's run-time
+      PM status to 'active' and update its parent's counter of 'active'
+      children as appropriate (it is only valid to use this function if
+      'power.runtime_error' is set or 'power.disable_depth' is greater than
+      zero); it will fail and return error code if the device has a parent
+      which is not active and the 'power.ignore_children' flag of which is unset
+
+  void pm_runtime_set_suspended(struct device *dev);
+    - clear the device's 'power.runtime_error' flag, set the device's run-time
+      PM status to 'suspended' and update its parent's counter of 'active'
+      children as appropriate (it is only valid to use this function if
+      'power.runtime_error' is set or 'power.disable_depth' is greater than
+      zero)
+
+It is safe to execute the following helper functions from interrupt context:
+
+pm_request_idle()
+pm_schedule_suspend()
+pm_request_resume()
+pm_runtime_get_noresume()
+pm_runtime_get()
+pm_runtime_put_noidle()
+pm_runtime_put()
+pm_suspend_ignore_children()
+pm_runtime_set_active()
+pm_runtime_set_suspended()
+pm_runtime_enable()
+
+5. Run-time PM Initialization, Device Probing and Removal
+
+Initially, the run-time PM is disabled for all devices, which means that the
+majority of the run-time PM helper funtions described in Section 4 will return
+-EAGAIN until pm_runtime_enable() is called for the device.
+
+In addition to that, the initial run-time PM status of all devices is
+'suspended', but it need not reflect the actual physical state of the device.
+Thus, if the device is initially active (i.e. it is able to process I/O), its
+run-time PM status must be changed to 'active', with the help of
+pm_runtime_set_active(), before pm_runtime_enable() is called for the device.
+
+However, if the device has a parent and the parent's run-time PM is enabled,
+calling pm_runtime_set_active() for the device will affect the parent, unless
+the parent's 'power.ignore_children' flag is set.  Namely, in that case the
+parent won't be able to suspend at run time, using the PM core's helper
+functions, as long as the child's status is 'active', even if the child's
+run-time PM is still disabled (i.e. pm_runtime_enable() hasn't been called for
+the child yet or pm_runtime_disable() has been called for it).  For this reason,
+once pm_runtime_set_active() has been called for the device, pm_runtime_enable()
+should be called for it too as soon as reasonably possible or its run-time PM
+status should be changed back to 'suspended' with the help of
+pm_runtime_set_suspended().
+
+If the default initial run-time PM status of the device (i.e. 'suspended')
+reflects the actual state of the device, its bus type's or its driver's
+->probe() callback will likely need to wake it up using one of the PM core's
+helper functions described in Section 4.  In that case, pm_runtime_resume()
+should be used.  Of course, for this purpose the device's run-time PM has to be
+enabled earlier by calling pm_runtime_enable().
+
+If the device bus type's or driver's ->probe() or ->remove() callback runs
+pm_runtime_suspend() or pm_runtime_idle() or their asynchronous counterparts,
+they will fail returning -EAGAIN, because the device's usage counter is
+incremented by the core before executing ->probe() and ->remove().  Still, it
+may be desirable to suspend the device as soon as ->probe() or ->remove() has
+finished, so the PM core uses pm_runtime_idle_sync() to invoke the device bus
+type's ->runtime_idle() callback at that time.

+IMPORTANT: Using "%s" in sprintf event functions is dangerous. You can only
+use "%s" in the sprintf event functions, if the memory for the passed string is
+available as long as the debug feature exists. The reason behind this is that
+due to performance considerations only a pointer to the string is stored in
+the debug feature. If you log a string that is freed afterwards, you will get
+an OOPS when inspecting the debug feature, because then the debug feature will
+access the already freed memory.
 
 NOTE: If using the sprintf view do NOT use other event/exception functions
 than the sprintf-event and -exception functions.

+Early Patching
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+When CONFIG_SND_HDA_PATCH_LOADER=y is set, you can pass a "patch" as a
+firmware file for modifying the HD-audio setup before initializing the
+codec.  This can work basically like the reconfiguration via sysfs in
+the above, but it does it before the first codec configuration.
+
+A patch file is a plain text file which looks like below:
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+  [codec]
+  0x12345678 0xabcd1234 2
+
+  [model]
+  auto
+
+  [pincfg]
+  0x12 0x411111f0
+
+  [verb]
+  0x20 0x500 0x03
+  0x20 0x400 0xff
+
+  [hint]
+  hp_detect = yes
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The file needs to have a line `[codec]`.  The next line should contain
+three numbers indicating the codec vendor-id (0x12345678 in the
+example), the codec subsystem-id (0xabcd1234) and the address (2) of
+the codec.  The rest patch entries are applied to this specified codec
+until another codec entry is given.
+
+The `[model]` line allows to change the model name of the each codec.
+In the example above, it will be changed to model=auto.
+Note that this overrides the module option.
+
+After the `[pincfg]` line, the contents are parsed as the initial
+default pin-configurations just like `user_pin_configs` sysfs above.
+The values can be shown in user_pin_configs sysfs file, too.
+
+Similarly, the lines after `[verb]` are parsed as `init_verbs`
+sysfs entries, and the lines after `[hint]` are parsed as `hints`
+sysfs entries, respectively.
+
+The hd-audio driver reads the file via request_firmware().  Thus,
+a patch file has to be located on the appropriate firmware path,
+typically, /lib/firmware.  For example, when you pass the option
+`patch=hda-init.fw`, the file /lib/firmware/hda-init-fw must be
+present.
+
+The patch module option is specific to each card instance, and you
+need to give one file name for each instance, separated by commas.
+For example, if you have two cards, one for an on-board analog and one 
+for an HDMI video board, you may pass patch option like below:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+    options snd-hda-intel patch=on-board-patch,hdmi-patch
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
