=============================================
One of the best applications of RCU is to protect read-mostly linked lists
-("struct list_head" in list.h). One big advantage of this approach
+(``struct list_head`` in list.h). One big advantage of this approach
is that all of the required memory barriers are included for you in
the list macros. This document describes several applications of RCU,
with the best fits first.
-Example 1: Read-Side Action Taken Outside of Lock, No In-Place Updates
+
+Example 1: Read-mostly list: Deferred Destruction
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+A widely used usecase for RCU lists in the kernel is lockless iteration over
+all processes in the system. ``task_struct::tasks`` represents the list node that
+links all the processes. The list can be traversed in parallel to any list
+additions or removals.
+
+The traversal of the list is done using ``for_each_process()`` which is defined
+by the 2 macros::
+
+ #define next_task(p) \
+ list_entry_rcu((p)->tasks.next, struct task_struct, tasks)
+
+ #define for_each_process(p) \
+ for (p = &init_task ; (p = next_task(p)) != &init_task ; )
+
+The code traversing the list of all processes typically looks like::
+
+ rcu_read_lock();
+ for_each_process(p) {
+ /* Do something with p */
+ }
+ rcu_read_unlock();
+
+The simplified code for removing a process from a task list is::
+
+ void release_task(struct task_struct *p)
+ {
+ write_lock(&tasklist_lock);
+ list_del_rcu(&p->tasks);
+ write_unlock(&tasklist_lock);
+ call_rcu(&p->rcu, delayed_put_task_struct);
+ }
+
+When a process exits, ``release_task()`` calls ``list_del_rcu(&p->tasks)`` under
+``tasklist_lock`` writer lock protection, to remove the task from the list of
+all tasks. The ``tasklist_lock`` prevents concurrent list additions/removals
+from corrupting the list. Readers using ``for_each_process()`` are not protected
+with the ``tasklist_lock``. To prevent readers from noticing changes in the list
+pointers, the ``task_struct`` object is freed only after one or more grace
+periods elapse (with the help of call_rcu()). This deferring of destruction
+ensures that any readers traversing the list will see valid ``p->tasks.next``
+pointers and deletion/freeing can happen in parallel with traversal of the list.
+This pattern is also called an **existence lock**, since RCU pins the object in
+memory until all existing readers finish.

+
+For some usecases, reader performance can be improved by skipping stale objects

+subsystem. When a ``CLOCK_REALTIME`` clock is reprogrammed - for example due to
+setting of the system time, then all programmed timerfds that depend on this
+clock get triggered and processes waiting on them to expire are woken up in
+advance of their scheduled expiry. To facilitate this, all such timers are added
+to an RCU-managed ``cancel_list`` when they are setup in
+``timerfd_setup_cancel()``::
+
+ static void timerfd_setup_cancel(struct timerfd_ctx *ctx, int flags)

+
+The key point here is, because RCU-traversal of the ``cancel_list`` happens

+
+USAGE ON MAINLINE KERNELS
+
+When using rcutorture to test changes to RCU itself, it is often
+necessary to build a number of kernels in order to test that change
+across a broad range of combinations of the relevant Kconfig options
+and of the relevant kernel boot parameters. In this situation, use
+of modprobe and rmmod can be quite time-consuming and error-prone.
+
+Therefore, the tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh
+script is available for mainline testing for x86, arm64, and
+powerpc. By default, it will run the series of tests specified by
+tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/configs/rcu/CFLIST, with each test
+running for 30 minutes within a guest OS using a minimal userspace
+supplied by an automatically generated initrd. After the tests are
+complete, the resulting build products and console output are analyzed
+for errors and the results of the runs are summarized.
+
+On larger systems, rcutorture testing can be accelerated by passing the
+--cpus argument to kvm.sh. For example, on a 64-CPU system, "--cpus 43"
+would use up to 43 CPUs to run tests concurrently, which as of v5.4 would
+complete all the scenarios in two batches, reducing the time to complete
+from about eight hours to about one hour (not counting the time to build
+the sixteen kernels). The "--dryrun sched" argument will not run tests,
+but rather tell you how the tests would be scheduled into batches. This
+can be useful when working out how many CPUs to specify in the --cpus
+argument.
+
+Not all changes require that all scenarios be run. For example, a change
+to Tree SRCU might run only the SRCU-N and SRCU-P scenarios using the
+--configs argument to kvm.sh as follows: "--configs 'SRCU-N SRCU-P'".
+Large systems can run multiple copies of of the full set of scenarios,
+for example, a system with 448 hardware threads can run five instances
+of the full set concurrently. To make this happen:
+
+ kvm.sh --cpus 448 --configs '5*CFLIST'
+
+Alternatively, such a system can run 56 concurrent instances of a single
+eight-CPU scenario:
+
+ kvm.sh --cpus 448 --configs '56*TREE04'
+
+Or 28 concurrent instances of each of two eight-CPU scenarios:
+
+ kvm.sh --cpus 448 --configs '28*TREE03 28*TREE04'
+
+Of course, each concurrent instance will use memory, which can be
+limited using the --memory argument, which defaults to 512M. Small
+values for memory may require disabling the callback-flooding tests
+using the --bootargs parameter discussed below.
+
+Sometimes additional debugging is useful, and in such cases the --kconfig
+parameter to kvm.sh may be used, for example, "--kconfig 'CONFIG_KASAN=y'".
+
+Kernel boot arguments can also be supplied, for example, to control
+rcutorture's module parameters. For example, to test a change to RCU's
+CPU stall-warning code, use "--bootargs 'rcutorture.stall_cpu=30'".
+This will of course result in the scripting reporting a failure, namely
+the resuling RCU CPU stall warning. As noted above, reducing memory may
+require disabling rcutorture's callback-flooding tests:
+
+ kvm.sh --cpus 448 --configs '56*TREE04' --memory 128M \
+ --bootargs 'rcutorture.fwd_progress=0'
+
+Sometimes all that is needed is a full set of kernel builds. This is
+what the --buildonly argument does.
+
+Finally, the --trust-make argument allows each kernel build to reuse what
+it can from the previous kernel build.
+
+There are additional more arcane arguments that are documented in the
+source code of the kvm.sh script.
+
+If a run contains failures, the number of buildtime and runtime failures
+is listed at the end of the kvm.sh output, which you really should redirect
+to a file. The build products and console output of each run is kept in
+tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/res in timestamped directories. A
+given directory can be supplied to kvm-find-errors.sh in order to have
+it cycle you through summaries of errors and full error logs. For example:
+
+ tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm-find-errors.sh \
+ tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/res/2020.01.20-15.54.23
+
+However, it is often more convenient to access the files directly.
+Files pertaining to all scenarios in a run reside in the top-level
+directory (2020.01.20-15.54.23 in the example above), while per-scenario
+files reside in a subdirectory named after the scenario (for example,
+"TREE04"). If a given scenario ran more than once (as in "--configs
+'56*TREE04'" above), the directories corresponding to the second and
+subsequent runs of that scenario include a sequence number, for example,
+"TREE04.2", "TREE04.3", and so on.
+
+The most frequently used file in the top-level directory is testid.txt.
+If the test ran in a git repository, then this file contains the commit
+that was tested and any uncommitted changes in diff format.
+
+The most frequently used files in each per-scenario-run directory are:
+
+.config: This file contains the Kconfig options.
+
+Make.out: This contains build output for a specific scenario.
+
+console.log: This contains the console output for a specific scenario.
+ This file may be examined once the kernel has booted, but
+ it might not exist if the build failed.
+
+vmlinux: This contains the kernel, which can be useful with tools like
+ objdump and gdb.
+
+A number of additional files are available, but are less frequently used.
+Many are intended for debugging of rcutorture itself or of its scripting.
+
+As of v5.4, a successful run with the default set of scenarios produces
+the following summary at the end of the run on a 12-CPU system:

+

+ 26094, in chapter 9, available for download from www.amd.com.
+
+ BIOS supplied data, for powernow-k7 and for powernow-k8, may be
+ from either the PSB table or from ACPI objects. The ACPI support
+ is only available if the kernel config sets CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR.

+ The module has two options:
+
+ fid: multiplier * 10 (for example 8.5 = 85)
+ min_fsb: minimum FSB
+

+
+ 1. Introduction:
+ ----------------
+ Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the platform
+ firmware and OSPM. It is a mechanism for coordinating processor
+ performance (ie: frequency) between the platform firmware and the OS.
+
+ The PCC driver (pcc-cpufreq) allows OSPM to take advantage of the PCC
+ interface.
+
+ OS utilizes the PCC interface to inform platform firmware what frequency the
+ OS wants for a logical processor. The platform firmware attempts to achieve
+ the requested frequency. If the request for the target frequency could not be
+ satisfied by platform firmware, then it usually means that power budget
+ conditions are in place, and "power capping" is taking place.
+
+ 1.1 PCC interface:
+ ------------------
+ The complete PCC specification is available here:
+ https://acpica.org/sites/acpica/files/Processor-Clocking-Control-v1p0.pdf
+
+ PCC relies on a shared memory region that provides a channel for communication
+ between the OS and platform firmware. PCC also implements a "doorbell" that
+ is used by the OS to inform the platform firmware that a command has been
+ sent.
+
+ The ACPI PCCH() method is used to discover the location of the PCC shared
+ memory region. The shared memory region header contains the "command" and
+ "status" interface. PCCH() also contains details on how to access the platform
+ doorbell.
+
+ The following commands are supported by the PCC interface:
+ * Get Average Frequency
+ * Set Desired Frequency
+
+ The ACPI PCCP() method is implemented for each logical processor and is
+ used to discover the offsets for the input and output buffers in the shared
+ memory region.
+
+ When PCC mode is enabled, the platform will not expose processor performance
+ or throttle states (_PSS, _TSS and related ACPI objects) to OSPM. Therefore,
+ the native P-state driver (such as acpi-cpufreq for Intel, powernow-k8 for
+ AMD) will not load.
+
+ However, OSPM remains in control of policy. The governor (eg: "ondemand")
+ computes the required performance for each processor based on server workload.
+ The PCC driver fills in the command interface, and the input buffer and
+ communicates the request to the platform firmware. The platform firmware is
+ responsible for delivering the requested performance.
+
+ Each PCC command is "global" in scope and can affect all the logical CPUs in
+ the system. Therefore, PCC is capable of performing "group" updates. With PCC
+ the OS is capable of getting/setting the frequency of all the logical CPUs in
+ the system with a single call to the BIOS.
+
+ 1.1.1 Get Average Frequency:
+ ----------------------------
+ This command is used by the OSPM to query the running frequency of the
+ processor since the last time this command was completed. The output buffer
+ indicates the average unhalted frequency of the logical processor expressed as
+ a percentage of the nominal (ie: maximum) CPU frequency. The output buffer
+ also signifies if the CPU frequency is limited by a power budget condition.
+
+ 1.1.2 Set Desired Frequency:
+ ----------------------------
+ This command is used by the OSPM to communicate to the platform firmware the
+ desired frequency for a logical processor. The output buffer is currently
+ ignored by OSPM. The next invocation of "Get Average Frequency" will inform
+ OSPM if the desired frequency was achieved or not.
+
+ 1.2 Platforms affected:
+ -----------------------
+ The PCC driver will load on any system where the platform firmware:
+ * supports the PCC interface, and the associated PCCH() and PCCP() methods
+ * assumes responsibility for managing the hardware clocking controls in order
+ to deliver the requested processor performance
+
+ Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. On those
+ platforms PCC is the "default" choice.
+
+ However, it is possible to disable this interface via a BIOS setting. In
+ such an instance, as is also the case on platforms where the PCC interface
+ is not implemented, the PCC driver will fail to load silently.
+
+ 2. Driver and /sys details:
+ ---------------------------
+ When the driver loads, it merely prints the lowest and the highest CPU
+ frequencies supported by the platform firmware.
+
+ The PCC driver loads with a message such as:
+ pcc-cpufreq: (v1.00.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1600 MHz, 2933
+ MHz
+
+ This means that the OPSM can request the CPU to run at any frequency in
+ between the limits (1600 MHz, and 2933 MHz) specified in the message.
+
+ Internally, there is no need for the driver to convert the "target" frequency
+ to a corresponding P-state.
+
+ The VERSION number for the driver will be of the format v.xy.ab.
+ eg: 1.00.02
+ ----- --
+ | |
+ | -- this will increase with bug fixes/enhancements to the driver
+ |-- this is the version of the PCC specification the driver adheres to
+
+
+ The following is a brief discussion on some of the fields exported via the
+ /sys filesystem and how their values are affected by the PCC driver:
+
+ 2.1 scaling_available_frequencies:
+ ----------------------------------
+ scaling_available_frequencies is not created in /sys. No intermediate
+ frequencies need to be listed because the BIOS will try to achieve any
+ frequency, within limits, requested by the governor. A frequency does not have
+ to be strictly associated with a P-state.
+
+ 2.2 cpuinfo_transition_latency:
+ -------------------------------
+ The cpuinfo_transition_latency field is 0. The PCC specification does
+ not include a field to expose this value currently.
+
+ 2.3 cpuinfo_cur_freq:
+ ---------------------
+ A) Often cpuinfo_cur_freq will show a value different than what is declared
+ in the scaling_available_frequencies or scaling_cur_freq, or scaling_max_freq.
+ This is due to "turbo boost" available on recent Intel processors. If certain
+ conditions are met the BIOS can achieve a slightly higher speed than requested
+ by OSPM. An example:
+
+ scaling_cur_freq : 2933000
+ cpuinfo_cur_freq : 3196000
+
+ B) There is a round-off error associated with the cpuinfo_cur_freq value.
+ Since the driver obtains the current frequency as a "percentage" (%) of the
+ nominal frequency from the BIOS, sometimes, the values displayed by
+ scaling_cur_freq and cpuinfo_cur_freq may not match. An example:
+
+ scaling_cur_freq : 1600000
+ cpuinfo_cur_freq : 1583000
+
+ In this example, the nominal frequency is 2933 MHz. The driver obtains the
+ current frequency, cpuinfo_cur_freq, as 54% of the nominal frequency:
+
+ 54% of 2933 MHz = 1583 MHz
+
+ Nominal frequency is the maximum frequency of the processor, and it usually
+ corresponds to the frequency of the P0 P-state.
+
+ 2.4 related_cpus:
+ -----------------
+ The related_cpus field is identical to affected_cpus.
+
+ affected_cpus : 4
+ related_cpus : 4
+
+ Currently, the PCC driver does not evaluate _PSD. The platforms that support
+ PCC do not implement SW_ALL. So OSPM doesn't need to perform any coordination
+ to ensure that the same frequency is requested of all dependent CPUs.
+
+ 3. Caveats:
+ -----------
+ The "cpufreq_stats" module in its present form cannot be loaded and
+ expected to work with the PCC driver. Since the "cpufreq_stats" module
+ provides information wrt each P-state, it is not applicable to the PCC driver.

-================
+core_pipe_limit
+===============
-This sysctl is only applicable when core_pattern is configured to pipe
-core files to a user space helper (when the first character of
-core_pattern is a '|', see above). When collecting cores via a pipe
-to an application, it is occasionally useful for the collecting
-application to gather data about the crashing process from its
-/proc/pid directory. In order to do this safely, the kernel must wait
-for the collecting process to exit, so as not to remove the crashing
-processes proc files prematurely. This in turn creates the
-possibility that a misbehaving userspace collecting process can block
-the reaping of a crashed process simply by never exiting. This sysctl
-defends against that. It defines how many concurrent crashing
-processes may be piped to user space applications in parallel. If
-this value is exceeded, then those crashing processes above that value
-are noted via the kernel log and their cores are skipped. 0 is a
-special value, indicating that unlimited processes may be captured in
-parallel, but that no waiting will take place (i.e. the collecting
-process is not guaranteed access to /proc/<crashing pid>/). This
-value defaults to 0.

-3. Caveats
-
-1. Introduction:
-----------------
-Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the platform
-firmware and OSPM. It is a mechanism for coordinating processor
-performance (ie: frequency) between the platform firmware and the OS.
-
-The PCC driver (pcc-cpufreq) allows OSPM to take advantage of the PCC
-interface.
-
-OS utilizes the PCC interface to inform platform firmware what frequency the
-OS wants for a logical processor. The platform firmware attempts to achieve
-the requested frequency. If the request for the target frequency could not be
-satisfied by platform firmware, then it usually means that power budget
-conditions are in place, and "power capping" is taking place.
-
-1.1 PCC interface:
-------------------
-The complete PCC specification is available here:
-http://www.acpica.org/download/Processor-Clocking-Control-v1p0.pdf
-
-PCC relies on a shared memory region that provides a channel for communication
-between the OS and platform firmware. PCC also implements a "doorbell" that
-is used by the OS to inform the platform firmware that a command has been
-sent.
-
-The ACPI PCCH() method is used to discover the location of the PCC shared
-memory region. The shared memory region header contains the "command" and
-"status" interface. PCCH() also contains details on how to access the platform
-doorbell.
-
-The following commands are supported by the PCC interface:
-* Get Average Frequency
-* Set Desired Frequency
-
-The ACPI PCCP() method is implemented for each logical processor and is
-used to discover the offsets for the input and output buffers in the shared
-memory region.
-
-When PCC mode is enabled, the platform will not expose processor performance
-or throttle states (_PSS, _TSS and related ACPI objects) to OSPM. Therefore,
-the native P-state driver (such as acpi-cpufreq for Intel, powernow-k8 for
-AMD) will not load.
-
-However, OSPM remains in control of policy. The governor (eg: "ondemand")
-computes the required performance for each processor based on server workload.
-The PCC driver fills in the command interface, and the input buffer and
-communicates the request to the platform firmware. The platform firmware is
-responsible for delivering the requested performance.
-
-Each PCC command is "global" in scope and can affect all the logical CPUs in
-the system. Therefore, PCC is capable of performing "group" updates. With PCC
-the OS is capable of getting/setting the frequency of all the logical CPUs in
-the system with a single call to the BIOS.
-
-1.1.1 Get Average Frequency:
-----------------------------
-This command is used by the OSPM to query the running frequency of the
-processor since the last time this command was completed. The output buffer
-indicates the average unhalted frequency of the logical processor expressed as
-a percentage of the nominal (ie: maximum) CPU frequency. The output buffer
-also signifies if the CPU frequency is limited by a power budget condition.
-
-1.1.2 Set Desired Frequency:
-----------------------------
-This command is used by the OSPM to communicate to the platform firmware the
-desired frequency for a logical processor. The output buffer is currently
-ignored by OSPM. The next invocation of "Get Average Frequency" will inform
-OSPM if the desired frequency was achieved or not.
-
-1.2 Platforms affected:
------------------------
-The PCC driver will load on any system where the platform firmware:
-* supports the PCC interface, and the associated PCCH() and PCCP() methods
-* assumes responsibility for managing the hardware clocking controls in order
-to deliver the requested processor performance
-
-Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. On those
-platforms PCC is the "default" choice.
-
-However, it is possible to disable this interface via a BIOS setting. In
-such an instance, as is also the case on platforms where the PCC interface
-is not implemented, the PCC driver will fail to load silently.
-
-2. Driver and /sys details:
----------------------------
-When the driver loads, it merely prints the lowest and the highest CPU
-frequencies supported by the platform firmware.
-
-The PCC driver loads with a message such as:
-pcc-cpufreq: (v1.00.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1600 MHz, 2933
-MHz
-
-This means that the OPSM can request the CPU to run at any frequency in
-between the limits (1600 MHz, and 2933 MHz) specified in the message.
-
-Internally, there is no need for the driver to convert the "target" frequency
-to a corresponding P-state.
-
-The VERSION number for the driver will be of the format v.xy.ab.
-eg: 1.00.02
- ----- --
- | |
- | -- this will increase with bug fixes/enhancements to the driver
- |-- this is the version of the PCC specification the driver adheres to
-
-
-The following is a brief discussion on some of the fields exported via the
-/sys filesystem and how their values are affected by the PCC driver:
-
-2.1 scaling_available_frequencies:
-----------------------------------
-scaling_available_frequencies is not created in /sys. No intermediate
-frequencies need to be listed because the BIOS will try to achieve any
-frequency, within limits, requested by the governor. A frequency does not have
-to be strictly associated with a P-state.
-
-2.2 cpuinfo_transition_latency:
--------------------------------
-The cpuinfo_transition_latency field is 0. The PCC specification does
-not include a field to expose this value currently.
-
-2.3 cpuinfo_cur_freq:
----------------------
-A) Often cpuinfo_cur_freq will show a value different than what is declared
-in the scaling_available_frequencies or scaling_cur_freq, or scaling_max_freq.
-This is due to "turbo boost" available on recent Intel processors. If certain
-conditions are met the BIOS can achieve a slightly higher speed than requested
-by OSPM. An example:
-
-scaling_cur_freq : 2933000
-cpuinfo_cur_freq : 3196000
-
-B) There is a round-off error associated with the cpuinfo_cur_freq value.
-Since the driver obtains the current frequency as a "percentage" (%) of the
-nominal frequency from the BIOS, sometimes, the values displayed by
-scaling_cur_freq and cpuinfo_cur_freq may not match. An example:
-
-scaling_cur_freq : 1600000
-cpuinfo_cur_freq : 1583000
-
-In this example, the nominal frequency is 2933 MHz. The driver obtains the
-current frequency, cpuinfo_cur_freq, as 54% of the nominal frequency:
-
- 54% of 2933 MHz = 1583 MHz
-
-Nominal frequency is the maximum frequency of the processor, and it usually
-corresponds to the frequency of the P0 P-state.
-
-2.4 related_cpus:
------------------
-The related_cpus field is identical to affected_cpus.
-
-affected_cpus : 4
-related_cpus : 4
-
-Currently, the PCC driver does not evaluate _PSD. The platforms that support
-PCC do not implement SW_ALL. So OSPM doesn't need to perform any coordination
-to ensure that the same frequency is requested of all dependent CPUs.
-
-3. Caveats:
------------
-The "cpufreq_stats" module in its present form cannot be loaded and
-expected to work with the PCC driver. Since the "cpufreq_stats" module
-provides information wrt each P-state, it is not applicable to the PCC driver.

-Debugging Modules after 2.6.3
------------------------------
-
-In almost all distributions, the kernel asks for modules which don't
-exist, such as "net-pf-10" or whatever. Changing "modprobe -q" to
-"succeed" in this case is hacky and breaks some setups, and also we
-want to know if it failed for the fallback code for old aliases in
-fs/char_dev.c, for example.
-
-In the past a debugging message which would fill people's logs was
-emitted. This debugging message has been removed. The correct way
-of debugging module problems is something like this:
-
-echo '#! /bin/sh' > /tmp/modprobe
-echo 'echo "$@" >> /tmp/modprobe.log' >> /tmp/modprobe
-echo 'exec /sbin/modprobe "$@"' >> /tmp/modprobe
-chmod a+x /tmp/modprobe
-echo /tmp/modprobe > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
-
-Note that the above applies only when the *kernel* is requesting
-that the module be loaded -- it won't have any effect if that module
-is being loaded explicitly using "modprobe" from userspace.

-STMicroelectronics STM32 ADC device driver
-
-STM32 ADC is a successive approximation analog-to-digital converter.
-It has several multiplexed input channels. Conversions can be performed
-in single, continuous, scan or discontinuous mode. Result of the ADC is
-stored in a left-aligned or right-aligned 32-bit data register.
-Conversions can be launched in software or using hardware triggers.
-
-The analog watchdog feature allows the application to detect if the input
-voltage goes beyond the user-defined, higher or lower thresholds.
-
-Each STM32 ADC block can have up to 3 ADC instances.
-
-Each instance supports two contexts to manage conversions, each one has its
-own configurable sequence and trigger:
-- regular conversion can be done in sequence, running in background
-- injected conversions have higher priority, and so have the ability to
- interrupt regular conversion sequence (either triggered in SW or HW).
- Regular sequence is resumed, in case it has been interrupted.
-
-Contents of a stm32 adc root node:
------------------------------------
-Required properties:
-- compatible: Should be one of:
- "st,stm32f4-adc-core"
- "st,stm32h7-adc-core"
- "st,stm32mp1-adc-core"
-- reg: Offset and length of the ADC block register set.
-- interrupts: One or more interrupts for ADC block. Some parts like stm32f4
- and stm32h7 share a common ADC interrupt line. stm32mp1 has two separate
- interrupt lines, one for each ADC within ADC block.
-- clocks: Core can use up to two clocks, depending on part used:
- - "adc" clock: for the analog circuitry, common to all ADCs.
- It's required on stm32f4.
- It's optional on stm32h7.
- - "bus" clock: for registers access, common to all ADCs.
- It's not present on stm32f4.
- It's required on stm32h7.
-- clock-names: Must be "adc" and/or "bus" depending on part used.
-- interrupt-controller: Identifies the controller node as interrupt-parent
-- vdda-supply: Phandle to the vdda input analog voltage.
-- vref-supply: Phandle to the vref input analog reference voltage.
-- #interrupt-cells = <1>;
-- #address-cells = <1>;
-- #size-cells = <0>;
-
-Optional properties:
-- A pinctrl state named "default" for each ADC channel may be defined to set
- inX ADC pins in mode of operation for analog input on external pin.
-- booster-supply: Phandle to the embedded booster regulator that can be used
- to supply ADC analog input switches on stm32h7 and stm32mp1.
-- vdd-supply: Phandle to the vdd input voltage. It can be used to supply ADC
- analog input switches on stm32mp1.
-- st,syscfg: Phandle to system configuration controller. It can be used to
- control the analog circuitry on stm32mp1.
-- st,max-clk-rate-hz: Allow to specify desired max clock rate used by analog
- circuitry.
-
-Contents of a stm32 adc child node:
------------------------------------
-An ADC block node should contain at least one subnode, representing an
-ADC instance available on the machine.
-
-Required properties:
-- compatible: Should be one of:
- "st,stm32f4-adc"
- "st,stm32h7-adc"
- "st,stm32mp1-adc"
-- reg: Offset of ADC instance in ADC block (e.g. may be 0x0, 0x100, 0x200).
-- clocks: Input clock private to this ADC instance. It's required only on
- stm32f4, that has per instance clock input for registers access.
-- interrupts: IRQ Line for the ADC (e.g. may be 0 for adc@0, 1 for adc@100 or
- 2 for adc@200).
-- st,adc-channels: List of single-ended channels muxed for this ADC.
- It can have up to 16 channels on stm32f4 or 20 channels on stm32h7, numbered
- from 0 to 15 or 19 (resp. for in0..in15 or in0..in19).
-- st,adc-diff-channels: List of differential channels muxed for this ADC.
- Depending on part used, some channels can be configured as differential
- instead of single-ended (e.g. stm32h7). List here positive and negative
- inputs pairs as <vinp vinn>, <vinp vinn>,... vinp and vinn are numbered
- from 0 to 19 on stm32h7)
- Note: At least one of "st,adc-channels" or "st,adc-diff-channels" is required.
- Both properties can be used together. Some channels can be used as
- single-ended and some other ones as differential (mixed). But channels
- can't be configured both as single-ended and differential (invalid).
-- #io-channel-cells = <1>: See the IIO bindings section "IIO consumers" in
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/iio-bindings.txt
-
-Optional properties:
-- dmas: Phandle to dma channel for this ADC instance.
- See ../../dma/dma.txt for details.
-- dma-names: Must be "rx" when dmas property is being used.
-- assigned-resolution-bits: Resolution (bits) to use for conversions. Must
- match device available resolutions:
- * can be 6, 8, 10 or 12 on stm32f4
- * can be 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 on stm32h7
- Default is maximum resolution if unset.
-- st,min-sample-time-nsecs: Minimum sampling time in nanoseconds.
- Depending on hardware (board) e.g. high/low analog input source impedance,
- fine tune of ADC sampling time may be recommended.
- This can be either one value or an array that matches 'st,adc-channels' list,
- to set sample time resp. for all channels, or independently for each channel.
-
-Example:
- adc: adc@40012000 {
- compatible = "st,stm32f4-adc-core";
- reg = <0x40012000 0x400>;
- interrupts = <18>;

- clock-names = "adc";
- vref-supply = <&reg_vref>;
- interrupt-controller;
- pinctrl-names = "default";
- pinctrl-0 = <&adc3_in8_pin>;
-
- #interrupt-cells = <1>;
- #address-cells = <1>;
- #size-cells = <0>;
-
- adc@0 {

- };
- ...
- other adc child nodes follow...
- };
-
-Example to setup:
-- channel 1 as single-ended
-- channels 2 & 3 as differential (with resp. 6 & 7 negative inputs)
-
- adc: adc@40022000 {

- "rockchip,rk3368-spi" for rk3368 SoCs.
- "rockchip,rk3399-spi" for rk3399 SoCs.
-- reg: physical base address of the controller and length of memory mapped
- region.
-- interrupts: The interrupt number to the cpu. The interrupt specifier format
- depends on the interrupt controller.
-- clocks: Must contain an entry for each entry in clock-names.
-- clock-names: Shall be "spiclk" for the transfer-clock, and "apb_pclk" for
- the peripheral clock.
-- #address-cells: should be 1.

-
-Optional Properties:
-
-- dmas: DMA specifiers for tx and rx dma. See the DMA client binding,
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/dma/dma.txt
-- dma-names: DMA request names should include "tx" and "rx" if present.
-- rx-sample-delay-ns: nanoseconds to delay after the SCLK edge before sampling
- Rx data (may need to be fine tuned for high capacitance lines).
- No delay (0) by default.
-- pinctrl-names: Names for the pin configuration(s); may be "default" or
- "sleep", where the "sleep" configuration may describe the state
- the pins should be in during system suspend. See also
- pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt.

+
+EFI embedded firmware fallback mechanism
+========================================
+
+On some devices the system's EFI code / ROM may contain an embedded copy
+of firmware for some of the system's integrated peripheral devices and
+the peripheral's Linux device-driver needs to access this firmware.
+
+Device drivers which need such firmware can use the
+firmware_request_platform() function for this, note that this is a
+separate fallback mechanism from the other fallback mechanisms and
+this does not use the sysfs interface.
+
+A device driver which needs this can describe the firmware it needs
+using an efi_embedded_fw_desc struct:
+
+.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/efi_embedded_fw.h
+ :functions: efi_embedded_fw_desc
+
+The EFI embedded-fw code works by scanning all EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE memory
+segments for an eight byte sequence matching prefix; if the prefix is found it
+then does a sha256 over length bytes and if that matches makes a copy of length
+bytes and adds that to its list with found firmwares.
+
+To avoid doing this somewhat expensive scan on all systems, dmi matching is
+used. Drivers are expected to export a dmi_system_id array, with each entries'
+driver_data pointing to an efi_embedded_fw_desc.
+
+To register this array with the efi-embedded-fw code, a driver needs to:
+
+1. Always be builtin to the kernel or store the dmi_system_id array in a
+ separate object file which always gets builtin.
+
+2. Add an extern declaration for the dmi_system_id array to
+ include/linux/efi_embedded_fw.h.
+
+3. Add the dmi_system_id array to the embedded_fw_table in
+ drivers/firmware/efi/embedded-firmware.c wrapped in a #ifdef testing that
+ the driver is being builtin.
+
+4. Add "select EFI_EMBEDDED_FIRMWARE if EFI_STUB" to its Kconfig entry.
+
+The firmware_request_platform() function will always first try to load firmware
+with the specified name directly from the disk, so the EFI embedded-fw can
+always be overridden by placing a file under /lib/firmware.
+
+Note that:
+
+1. The code scanning for EFI embedded-firmware runs near the end
+ of start_kernel(), just before calling rest_init(). For normal drivers and
+ subsystems using subsys_initcall() to register themselves this does not
+ matter. This means that code running earlier cannot use EFI
+ embedded-firmware.
+
+2. At the moment the EFI embedded-fw code assumes that firmwares always start at
+ an offset which is a multiple of 8 bytes, if this is not true for your case
+ send in a patch to fix this.
+
+3. At the moment the EFI embedded-fw code only works on x86 because other archs
+ free EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE before the EFI embedded-fw code gets a chance to
+ scan it.
+
+4. The current brute-force scanning of EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE is an ad-hoc
+ brute-force solution. There has been discussion to use the UEFI Platform
+ Initialization (PI) spec's Firmware Volume protocol. This has been rejected
+ because the FV Protocol relies on *internal* interfaces of the PI spec, and:
+ 1. The PI spec does not define peripheral firmware at all
+ 2. The internal interfaces of the PI spec do not guarantee any backward
+ compatibility. Any implementation details in FV may be subject to change,
+ and may vary system to system. Supporting the FV Protocol would be
+ difficult as it is purposely ambiguous.
+
+Example how to check for and extract embedded firmware
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+To check for, for example Silead touchscreen controller embedded firmware,
+do the following:
+
+1. Boot the system with efi=debug on the kernel commandline
+
+2. cp /sys/kernel/debug/efi/boot_services_code? to your home dir
+
+3. Open the boot_services_code? files in a hex-editor, search for the
+ magic prefix for Silead firmware: F0 00 00 00 02 00 00 00, this gives you
+ the beginning address of the firmware inside the boot_services_code? file.
+

+ typically F0 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 for the first page followed by 32-bit
+ word-address + 32-bit value pairs. With the word-address incrementing 4
+ bytes (1 word) for each pair until a page is complete. A complete page is
+ followed by a new page-address, followed by more word + value pairs. This
+ leads to a very distinct pattern. Scroll down until this pattern stops,

+7. If the extracted firmware works, you can use the found info to fill an
+ efi_embedded_fw_desc struct to describe it, run "sha256sum firmware"
+ to get the sha256sum to put in the sha256 field.

+=============================
+NFSv4.1 Server Implementation
+=============================
+
+Server support for minorversion 1 can be controlled using the
+/proc/fs/nfsd/versions control file. The string output returned
+by reading this file will contain either "+4.1" or "-4.1"
+correspondingly.
+
+Currently, server support for minorversion 1 is enabled by default.
+It can be disabled at run time by writing the string "-4.1" to
+the /proc/fs/nfsd/versions control file. Note that to write this
+control file, the nfsd service must be taken down. You can use rpc.nfsd
+for this; see rpc.nfsd(8).
+
+(Warning: older servers will interpret "+4.1" and "-4.1" as "+4" and
+"-4", respectively. Therefore, code meant to work on both new and old
+kernels must turn 4.1 on or off *before* turning support for version 4
+on or off; rpc.nfsd does this correctly.)
+
+The NFSv4 minorversion 1 (NFSv4.1) implementation in nfsd is based
+on RFC 5661.
+
+From the many new features in NFSv4.1 the current implementation
+focuses on the mandatory-to-implement NFSv4.1 Sessions, providing
+"exactly once" semantics and better control and throttling of the
+resources allocated for each client.
+
+The table below, taken from the NFSv4.1 document, lists
+the operations that are mandatory to implement (REQ), optional
+(OPT), and NFSv4.0 operations that are required not to implement (MNI)
+in minor version 1. The first column indicates the operations that
+are not supported yet by the linux server implementation.
+
+The OPTIONAL features identified and their abbreviations are as follows:
+
+- **pNFS** Parallel NFS
+- **FDELG** File Delegations
+- **DDELG** Directory Delegations
+
+The following abbreviations indicate the linux server implementation status.
+
+- **I** Implemented NFSv4.1 operations.
+- **NS** Not Supported.
+- **NS\*** Unimplemented optional feature.

+
+DELEGPURGE:
+ mandatory only for servers that support CLAIM_DELEGATE_PREV and/or
+ CLAIM_DELEG_PREV_FH (which allows clients to keep delegations that
+ persist across client reboots). Thus we need not implement this for
+ now.
+
+EXCHANGE_ID:
+ implementation ids are ignored
+
+CREATE_SESSION:
+ backchannel attributes are ignored
+
+SEQUENCE:
+ no support for dynamic slot table renegotiation (optional)
+
+Nonstandard compound limitations:
+ No support for a sessions fore channel RPC compound that requires both a

+- A cache needs a datum to store. This is in the form of a

+- A cache needs a "cache_detail" structure that
describes the cache. This stores the hash table, some
parameters for cache management, and some operations detailing how
to work with particular cache items.
- The operations requires are:
- struct cache_head *alloc(void)
- This simply allocates appropriate memory and returns
- a pointer to the cache_detail embedded within the
- structure
- void cache_put(struct kref *)
- This is called when the last reference to an item is
- dropped. The pointer passed is to the 'ref' field
- in the cache_head. cache_put should release any
- references create by 'cache_init' and, if CACHE_VALID
- is set, any references created by cache_update.
- It should then release the memory allocated by
- 'alloc'.
- int match(struct cache_head *orig, struct cache_head *new)
- test if the keys in the two structures match. Return
- 1 if they do, 0 if they don't.
- void init(struct cache_head *orig, struct cache_head *new)
- Set the 'key' fields in 'new' from 'orig'. This may
- include taking references to shared objects.
- void update(struct cache_head *orig, struct cache_head *new)
- Set the 'content' fileds in 'new' from 'orig'.
- int cache_show(struct seq_file *m, struct cache_detail *cd,
- struct cache_head *h)
- Optional. Used to provide a /proc file that lists the
- contents of a cache. This should show one item,
- usually on just one line.
- int cache_request(struct cache_detail *cd, struct cache_head *h,
- char **bpp, int *blen)
- Format a request to be send to user-space for an item
- to be instantiated. *bpp is a buffer of size *blen.
- bpp should be moved forward over the encoded message,
- and *blen should be reduced to show how much free

+
+Disk format
+===========
+
+OMFS discriminates between "sysblocks" and normal data blocks. The sysblock
+group consists of super block information, file metadata, directory structures,
+and extents. Each sysblock has a header containing CRCs of the entire
+sysblock, and may be mirrored in successive blocks on the disk. A sysblock may
+have a smaller size than a data block, but since they are both addressed by the
+same 64-bit block number, any remaining space in the smaller sysblock is
+unused.
+
+Sysblock header information::
+
+ struct omfs_header {
+ __be64 h_self; /* FS block where this is located */
+ __be32 h_body_size; /* size of useful data after header */
+ __be16 h_crc; /* crc-ccitt of body_size bytes */
+ char h_fill1[2];
+ u8 h_version; /* version, always 1 */
+ char h_type; /* OMFS_INODE_X */
+ u8 h_magic; /* OMFS_IMAGIC */
+ u8 h_check_xor; /* XOR of header bytes before this */
+ __be32 h_fill2;
+ };
+
+Files and directories are both represented by omfs_inode::
+
+ struct omfs_inode {
+ struct omfs_header i_head; /* header */
+ __be64 i_parent; /* parent containing this inode */
+ __be64 i_sibling; /* next inode in hash bucket */
+ __be64 i_ctime; /* ctime, in milliseconds */
+ char i_fill1[35];
+ char i_type; /* OMFS_[DIR,FILE] */
+ __be32 i_fill2;
+ char i_fill3[64];
+ char i_name[OMFS_NAMELEN]; /* filename */
+ __be64 i_size; /* size of file, in bytes */
+ };
+
+Directories in OMFS are implemented as a large hash table. Filenames are
+hashed then prepended into the bucket list beginning at OMFS_DIR_START.
+Lookup requires hashing the filename, then seeking across i_sibling pointers
+until a match is found on i_name. Empty buckets are represented by block
+pointers with all-1s (~0).
+
+A file is an omfs_inode structure followed by an extent table beginning at
+OMFS_EXTENT_START::
+
+ struct omfs_extent_entry {
+ __be64 e_cluster; /* start location of a set of blocks */
+ __be64 e_blocks; /* number of blocks after e_cluster */
+ };
+
+ struct omfs_extent {
+ __be64 e_next; /* next extent table location */
+ __be32 e_extent_count; /* total # extents in this table */
+ __be32 e_fill;
+ struct omfs_extent_entry e_entry; /* start of extent entries */
+ };
+
+Each extent holds the block offset followed by number of blocks allocated to
+the extent. The final extent in each table is a terminator with e_cluster
+being ~0 and e_blocks being ones'-complement of the total number of blocks
+in the table.
+
+If this table overflows, a continuation inode is written and pointed to by
+e_next. These have a header but lack the rest of the inode structure.

+CommitLimit
+ Based on the overcommit ratio ('vm.overcommit_ratio'),
this is the total amount of memory currently available to
be allocated on the system. This limit is only adhered to
if strict overcommit accounting is enabled (mode 2 in
'vm.overcommit_memory').
- The CommitLimit is calculated with the following formula:
- CommitLimit = ([total RAM pages] - [total huge TLB pages]) *
- overcommit_ratio / 100 + [total swap pages]
+
+ The CommitLimit is calculated with the following formula::
+
+ CommitLimit = ([total RAM pages] - [total huge TLB pages]) *
+ overcommit_ratio / 100 + [total swap pages]
+
For example, on a system with 1G of physical RAM and 7G
of swap with a `vm.overcommit_ratio` of 30 it would
yield a CommitLimit of 7.3G.

The /proc file system serves information about the running system. It not only
allows access to process data but also allows you to request the kernel status
by reading files in the hierarchy.
The directory structure of /proc reflects the types of information and makes
it easy, if not obvious, where to look for specific data.

Certain aspects of kernel behavior can be modified at runtime, without the
need to recompile the kernel, or even to reboot the system. The files in the
/proc/sys tree can not only be read, but also modified. You can use the echo
command to write value into these files, thereby changing the default settings

Description
-----------
-Intersil ISL68137 is a digital output 7-phase configurable PWM
-controller with an AVSBus interface.
+This driver supports the Renesas ISL68137 and all 2nd generation Renesas
+digital multiphase voltage regulators (raa_dmpvr2). The ISL68137 is a digital
+output 7-phase configurable PWM controller with an AVSBus interface. 2nd
+generation devices are grouped into 4 distinct configurations: '1rail' for
+single-rail devices, '2rail' for dual-rail devices, '3rail' for 3-rail devices,
+and 'hv' for high voltage single-rail devices. Consult the individual datasheets

+Description
+-----------
+
+Chips in this series are multi-phase step-down converters with one or two
+output channels and up to 8 phases per channel.
+
+
+Usage Notes
+-----------
+
+This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
+devices explicitly.
+
+Example: the following commands will load the driver for an TPS53681 at address
+0x60 on I2C bus #1::
+
+ # modprobe tps53679
+ # echo tps53681 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device

+==========================
+Lock types and their rules
+==========================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The kernel provides a variety of locking primitives which can be divided
+into two categories:
+
+ - Sleeping locks
+ - Spinning locks
+
+This document conceptually describes these lock types and provides rules
+for their nesting, including the rules for use under PREEMPT_RT.
+
+
+Lock categories
+===============
+
+Sleeping locks
+--------------
+
+Sleeping locks can only be acquired in preemptible task context.
+
+Although implementations allow try_lock() from other contexts, it is
+necessary to carefully evaluate the safety of unlock() as well as of
+try_lock(). Furthermore, it is also necessary to evaluate the debugging
+versions of these primitives. In short, don't acquire sleeping locks from
+other contexts unless there is no other option.
+
+Sleeping lock types:
+
+ - mutex
+ - rt_mutex
+ - semaphore
+ - rw_semaphore
+ - ww_mutex
+ - percpu_rw_semaphore
+
+On PREEMPT_RT kernels, these lock types are converted to sleeping locks:
+
+ - spinlock_t
+ - rwlock_t
+
+Spinning locks
+--------------
+
+ - raw_spinlock_t
+ - bit spinlocks
+
+On non-PREEMPT_RT kernels, these lock types are also spinning locks:
+
+ - spinlock_t
+ - rwlock_t
+
+Spinning locks implicitly disable preemption and the lock / unlock functions
+can have suffixes which apply further protections:
+
+ =================== ====================================================
+ _bh() Disable / enable bottom halves (soft interrupts)
+ _irq() Disable / enable interrupts
+ _irqsave/restore() Save and disable / restore interrupt disabled state
+ =================== ====================================================
+
+Owner semantics
+===============
+
+The aforementioned lock types except semaphores have strict owner
+semantics:
+
+ The context (task) that acquired the lock must release it.
+
+rw_semaphores have a special interface which allows non-owner release for
+readers.
+
+
+rtmutex
+=======
+
+RT-mutexes are mutexes with support for priority inheritance (PI).
+
+PI has limitations on non-PREEMPT_RT kernels due to preemption and
+interrupt disabled sections.
+
+PI clearly cannot preempt preemption-disabled or interrupt-disabled
+regions of code, even on PREEMPT_RT kernels. Instead, PREEMPT_RT kernels
+execute most such regions of code in preemptible task context, especially
+interrupt handlers and soft interrupts. This conversion allows spinlock_t
+and rwlock_t to be implemented via RT-mutexes.
+
+
+semaphore
+=========
+
+semaphore is a counting semaphore implementation.
+
+Semaphores are often used for both serialization and waiting, but new use
+cases should instead use separate serialization and wait mechanisms, such
+as mutexes and completions.
+
+semaphores and PREEMPT_RT
+----------------------------
+
+PREEMPT_RT does not change the semaphore implementation because counting
+semaphores have no concept of owners, thus preventing PREEMPT_RT from
+providing priority inheritance for semaphores. After all, an unknown
+owner cannot be boosted. As a consequence, blocking on semaphores can
+result in priority inversion.
+
+
+rw_semaphore
+============
+
+rw_semaphore is a multiple readers and single writer lock mechanism.
+
+On non-PREEMPT_RT kernels the implementation is fair, thus preventing
+writer starvation.
+
+rw_semaphore complies by default with the strict owner semantics, but there
+exist special-purpose interfaces that allow non-owner release for readers.
+These interfaces work independent of the kernel configuration.
+
+rw_semaphore and PREEMPT_RT
+---------------------------
+
+PREEMPT_RT kernels map rw_semaphore to a separate rt_mutex-based
+implementation, thus changing the fairness:
+
+ Because an rw_semaphore writer cannot grant its priority to multiple
+ readers, a preempted low-priority reader will continue holding its lock,
+ thus starving even high-priority writers. In contrast, because readers
+ can grant their priority to a writer, a preempted low-priority writer will
+ have its priority boosted until it releases the lock, thus preventing that
+ writer from starving readers.
+
+
+raw_spinlock_t and spinlock_t
+=============================
+
+raw_spinlock_t
+--------------
+
+raw_spinlock_t is a strict spinning lock implementation regardless of the
+kernel configuration including PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels.
+
+raw_spinlock_t is a strict spinning lock implementation in all kernels,
+including PREEMPT_RT kernels. Use raw_spinlock_t only in real critical
+core code, low-level interrupt handling and places where disabling
+preemption or interrupts is required, for example, to safely access
+hardware state. raw_spinlock_t can sometimes also be used when the
+critical section is tiny, thus avoiding RT-mutex overhead.
+
+spinlock_t
+----------
+
+The semantics of spinlock_t change with the state of PREEMPT_RT.
+
+On a non-PREEMPT_RT kernel spinlock_t is mapped to raw_spinlock_t and has
+exactly the same semantics.
+
+spinlock_t and PREEMPT_RT
+-------------------------
+
+On a PREEMPT_RT kernel spinlock_t is mapped to a separate implementation
+based on rt_mutex which changes the semantics:
+
+ - Preemption is not disabled.
+
+ - The hard interrupt related suffixes for spin_lock / spin_unlock
+ operations (_irq, _irqsave / _irqrestore) do not affect the CPU's
+ interrupt disabled state.
+
+ - The soft interrupt related suffix (_bh()) still disables softirq
+ handlers.
+
+ Non-PREEMPT_RT kernels disable preemption to get this effect.
+
+ PREEMPT_RT kernels use a per-CPU lock for serialization which keeps
+ preemption disabled. The lock disables softirq handlers and also
+ prevents reentrancy due to task preemption.
+
+PREEMPT_RT kernels preserve all other spinlock_t semantics:
+
+ - Tasks holding a spinlock_t do not migrate. Non-PREEMPT_RT kernels
+ avoid migration by disabling preemption. PREEMPT_RT kernels instead
+ disable migration, which ensures that pointers to per-CPU variables
+ remain valid even if the task is preempted.
+
+ - Task state is preserved across spinlock acquisition, ensuring that the
+ task-state rules apply to all kernel configurations. Non-PREEMPT_RT
+ kernels leave task state untouched. However, PREEMPT_RT must change
+ task state if the task blocks during acquisition. Therefore, it saves
+ the current task state before blocking and the corresponding lock wakeup
+ restores it, as shown below::
+
+ task->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
+ lock()
+ block()
+ task->saved_state = task->state
+ task->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
+ schedule()
+ lock wakeup
+ task->state = task->saved_state
+
+ Other types of wakeups would normally unconditionally set the task state
+ to RUNNING, but that does not work here because the task must remain
+ blocked until the lock becomes available. Therefore, when a non-lock
+ wakeup attempts to awaken a task blocked waiting for a spinlock, it
+ instead sets the saved state to RUNNING. Then, when the lock
+ acquisition completes, the lock wakeup sets the task state to the saved
+ state, in this case setting it to RUNNING::
+
+ task->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
+ lock()
+ block()
+ task->saved_state = task->state
+ task->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
+ schedule()
+ non lock wakeup
+ task->saved_state = TASK_RUNNING
+
+ lock wakeup
+ task->state = task->saved_state
+
+ This ensures that the real wakeup cannot be lost.
+
+
+rwlock_t
+========
+
+rwlock_t is a multiple readers and single writer lock mechanism.
+
+Non-PREEMPT_RT kernels implement rwlock_t as a spinning lock and the
+suffix rules of spinlock_t apply accordingly. The implementation is fair,
+thus preventing writer starvation.
+
+rwlock_t and PREEMPT_RT
+-----------------------
+
+PREEMPT_RT kernels map rwlock_t to a separate rt_mutex-based
+implementation, thus changing semantics:
+
+ - All the spinlock_t changes also apply to rwlock_t.
+
+ - Because an rwlock_t writer cannot grant its priority to multiple
+ readers, a preempted low-priority reader will continue holding its lock,
+ thus starving even high-priority writers. In contrast, because readers
+ can grant their priority to a writer, a preempted low-priority writer
+ will have its priority boosted until it releases the lock, thus
+ preventing that writer from starving readers.
+
+
+PREEMPT_RT caveats
+==================
+
+spinlock_t and rwlock_t
+-----------------------
+
+These changes in spinlock_t and rwlock_t semantics on PREEMPT_RT kernels
+have a few implications. For example, on a non-PREEMPT_RT kernel the
+following code sequence works as expected::
+
+ local_irq_disable();
+ spin_lock(&lock);
+
+and is fully equivalent to::
+
+ spin_lock_irq(&lock);
+
+Same applies to rwlock_t and the _irqsave() suffix variants.
+
+On PREEMPT_RT kernel this code sequence breaks because RT-mutex requires a
+fully preemptible context. Instead, use spin_lock_irq() or
+spin_lock_irqsave() and their unlock counterparts. In cases where the
+interrupt disabling and locking must remain separate, PREEMPT_RT offers a
+local_lock mechanism. Acquiring the local_lock pins the task to a CPU,
+allowing things like per-CPU interrupt disabled locks to be acquired.
+However, this approach should be used only where absolutely necessary.
+
+
+raw_spinlock_t
+--------------
+
+Acquiring a raw_spinlock_t disables preemption and possibly also
+interrupts, so the critical section must avoid acquiring a regular
+spinlock_t or rwlock_t, for example, the critical section must avoid
+allocating memory. Thus, on a non-PREEMPT_RT kernel the following code
+works perfectly::
+
+ raw_spin_lock(&lock);
+ p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), GFP_ATOMIC);
+
+But this code fails on PREEMPT_RT kernels because the memory allocator is
+fully preemptible and therefore cannot be invoked from truly atomic
+contexts. However, it is perfectly fine to invoke the memory allocator
+while holding normal non-raw spinlocks because they do not disable
+preemption on PREEMPT_RT kernels::
+
+ spin_lock(&lock);
+ p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), GFP_ATOMIC);
+
+
+bit spinlocks
+-------------
+
+PREEMPT_RT cannot substitute bit spinlocks because a single bit is too
+small to accommodate an RT-mutex. Therefore, the semantics of bit
+spinlocks are preserved on PREEMPT_RT kernels, so that the raw_spinlock_t
+caveats also apply to bit spinlocks.
+
+Some bit spinlocks are replaced with regular spinlock_t for PREEMPT_RT
+using conditional (#ifdef'ed) code changes at the usage site. In contrast,
+usage-site changes are not needed for the spinlock_t substitution.
+Instead, conditionals in header files and the core locking implemementation
+enable the compiler to do the substitution transparently.
+
+
+Lock type nesting rules
+=======================
+
+The most basic rules are:
+
+ - Lock types of the same lock category (sleeping, spinning) can nest
+ arbitrarily as long as they respect the general lock ordering rules to
+ prevent deadlocks.
+
+ - Sleeping lock types cannot nest inside spinning lock types.
+
+ - Spinning lock types can nest inside sleeping lock types.
+
+These constraints apply both in PREEMPT_RT and otherwise.
+
+The fact that PREEMPT_RT changes the lock category of spinlock_t and
+rwlock_t from spinning to sleeping means that they cannot be acquired while
+holding a raw spinlock. This results in the following nesting ordering:
+
+ 1) Sleeping locks
+ 2) spinlock_t and rwlock_t
+ 3) raw_spinlock_t and bit spinlocks
+
+Lockdep will complain if these constraints are violated, both in
+PREEMPT_RT and otherwise.

+14-bit Bayer formats expanded to 16 bits
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+These four pixel formats are raw sRGB / Bayer formats with 14 bits per
+colour. Each sample is stored in a 16-bit word, with two unused high
+bits filled with zeros. Each n-pixel row contains n/2 green samples
+and n/2 blue or red samples, with alternating red and blue rows. Bytes
+are stored in memory in little endian order. They are conventionally
+described as GRGR... BGBG..., RGRG... GBGB..., etc. Below is an
+example of a small V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR14 image:
+
+**Byte Order.**
+Each cell is one byte, the two most significant bits in the high bytes are
+zero.

1. PM QoS framework
===================
-The infrastructure exposes multiple misc device nodes one per implemented
-parameter. The set of parameters implement is defined by pm_qos_power_init()
-and pm_qos_params.h. This is done because having the available parameters
-being runtime configurable or changeable from a driver was seen as too easy to
-abuse.
-
-For each parameter a list of performance requests is maintained along with
-an aggregated target value. The aggregated target value is updated with
-changes to the request list or elements of the list. Typically the
-aggregated target value is simply the max or min of the request values held
-in the parameter list elements.
+A global list of CPU latency QoS requests is maintained along with an aggregated
+(effective) target value. The aggregated target value is updated with changes
+to the request list or elements of the list. For CPU latency QoS, the
+aggregated target value is simply the min of the request values held in the list
+elements.
+
Note: the aggregated target value is implemented as an atomic variable so that
reading the aggregated value does not require any locking mechanism.
+From kernel space the use of this interface is simple:
-From kernel mode the use of this interface is simple:
-
-void pm_qos_add_request(handle, param_class, target_value):
- Will insert an element into the list for that identified PM QoS class with the
- target value. Upon change to this list the new target is recomputed and any
- registered notifiers are called only if the target value is now different.
- Clients of pm_qos need to save the returned handle for future use in other
- pm_qos API functions.

+void cpu_latency_qos_update_request(handle, new_target_value):

+void cpu_latency_qos_remove_request(handle):
Will remove the element. After removal it will update the aggregate target
and call the notification tree if the target was changed as a result of

+virtiofs: virtio-fs 主机<->客机共享文件系统
+===========================================
+
+- Copyright (C) 2020 Vivo Communication Technology Co. Ltd.
+
+介绍
+====
+Linux的virtiofs文件系统实现了一个半虚拟化VIRTIO类型“virtio-fs”设备的驱动,通过该\
+类型设备实现客机<->主机文件系统共享。它允许客机挂载一个已经导出到主机的目录。
+
+客机通常需要访问主机或者远程系统上的文件。使用场景包括:在新客机安装时让文件对其\
+可见;从主机上的根文件系统启动;对无状态或临时客机提供持久存储和在客机之间共享目录。
+
+尽管在某些任务可能通过使用已有的网络文件系统完成,但是却需要非常难以自动化的配置\
+步骤,且将存储网络暴露给客机。而virtio-fs设备通过提供不经过网络的文件系统访问文件\
+的设计方式解决了这些问题。
+
+另外,virto-fs设备发挥了主客机共存的优点提高了性能,并且提供了网络文件系统所不具备
+的一些语义功能。
+
+用法
+====
+以``myfs``标签将文件系统挂载到``/mnt``:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ guest# mount -t virtiofs myfs /mnt
+
+请查阅 https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/ 了解配置QEMU和virtiofsd守护程序的详细信息。
+
+内幕
+====
+由于virtio-fs设备将FUSE协议用于文件系统请求,因此Linux的virtiofs文件系统与FUSE文\
+件系统客户端紧密集成在一起。客机充当FUSE客户端而主机充当FUSE服务器,内核与用户空\
+间之间的/dev/fuse接口由virtio-fs设备接口代替。
+
+FUSE请求被置于虚拟队列中由主机处理。主机填充缓冲区中的响应部分,而客机处理请求的完成部分。
+
+将/dev/fuse映射到虚拟队列需要解决/dev/fuse和虚拟队列之间语义上的差异。每次读取\
+/dev/fuse设备时,FUSE客户端都可以选择要传输的请求,从而可以使某些请求优先于其他\
+请求。虚拟队列有其队列语义,无法更改已入队请求的顺序。在虚拟队列已满的情况下尤
+其关键,因为此时不可能加入高优先级的请求。为了解决此差异,virtio-fs设备采用“hiprio”\
+(高优先级)虚拟队列,专门用于有别于普通请求的高优先级请求。

+==============
+USB Raw Gadget
+==============
+
+USB Raw Gadget is a kernel module that provides a userspace interface for
+the USB Gadget subsystem. Essentially it allows to emulate USB devices
+from userspace. Enabled with CONFIG_USB_RAW_GADGET. Raw Gadget is
+currently a strictly debugging feature and shouldn't be used in
+production, use GadgetFS instead.
+
+Comparison to GadgetFS
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Raw Gadget is similar to GadgetFS, but provides a more low-level and
+direct access to the USB Gadget layer for the userspace. The key
+differences are:
+
+1. Every USB request is passed to the userspace to get a response, while
+ GadgetFS responds to some USB requests internally based on the provided
+ descriptors. However note, that the UDC driver might respond to some
+ requests on its own and never forward them to the Gadget layer.
+
+2. GadgetFS performs some sanity checks on the provided USB descriptors,
+ while Raw Gadget allows you to provide arbitrary data as responses to
+ USB requests.
+
+3. Raw Gadget provides a way to select a UDC device/driver to bind to,
+ while GadgetFS currently binds to the first available UDC.
+
+4. Raw Gadget uses predictable endpoint names (handles) across different
+ UDCs (as long as UDCs have enough endpoints of each required transfer
+ type).
+
+5. Raw Gadget has ioctl-based interface instead of a filesystem-based one.
+
+Userspace interface
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To create a Raw Gadget instance open /dev/raw-gadget. Multiple raw-gadget
+instances (bound to different UDCs) can be used at the same time. The
+interaction with the opened file happens through the ioctl() calls, see
+comments in include/uapi/linux/usb/raw_gadget.h for details.
+
+The typical usage of Raw Gadget looks like:
+
+1. Open Raw Gadget instance via /dev/raw-gadget.
+2. Initialize the instance via USB_RAW_IOCTL_INIT.
+3. Launch the instance with USB_RAW_IOCTL_RUN.
+4. In a loop issue USB_RAW_IOCTL_EVENT_FETCH calls to receive events from
+ Raw Gadget and react to those depending on what kind of USB device
+ needs to be emulated.
+
+Potential future improvements
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Implement ioctl's for setting/clearing halt status on endpoints.
+
+- Reporting more events (suspend, resume, etc.) through
+ USB_RAW_IOCTL_EVENT_FETCH.
+
+- Support O_NONBLOCK I/O.
