What: /sys/kernel/debug/ec/*/{gpe,use_global_lock,io}
Date: July 2010
Contact: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de>
Description:
General information like which GPE is assigned to the EC and whether
the global lock should get used.
Knowing the EC GPE one can watch the amount of HW events related to
the EC here (XY -> GPE number from /sys/kernel/debug/ec/*/gpe):
/sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpeXY
The io file is binary and a userspace tool located here:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/trenn/sources/ec/
should get used to read out the 256 Embedded Controller registers
or writing to them.
CAUTION: Do not write to the Embedded Controller if you don't know
what you are doing! Rebooting afterwards also is a good idea.
This can influence the way your machine is cooled and fans may
not get switched on again after you did a wrong write.

Description:
The /sys/power/wakeup_count file allows user space to put the
system into a sleep state while taking into account the
concurrent arrival of wakeup events. Reading from it returns
the current number of registered wakeup events and it blocks if
some wakeup events are being processed at the time the file is
read from. Writing to it will only succeed if the current
number of wakeup events is equal to the written value and, if
successful, will make the kernel abort a subsequent transition
to a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the
write has returned.

<title>Introduction</title>
<para>The LIRC device interface is a bi-directional interface for
transporting raw IR data between userspace and kernelspace. Fundamentally,
it is just a chardev (/dev/lircX, for X = 0, 1, 2, ...), with a number
of standard struct file_operations defined on it. With respect to
transporting raw IR data to and fro, the essential fops are read, write
and ioctl.</para>

<title>LIRC read fop</title>
<para>The lircd userspace daemon reads raw IR data from the LIRC chardev. The
exact format of the data depends on what modes a driver supports, and what
mode has been selected. lircd obtains supported modes and sets the active mode
via the ioctl interface, detailed at <xref linkend="lirc_ioctl"/>. The generally
preferred mode is LIRC_MODE_MODE2, in which packets containing an int value
describing an IR signal are read from the chardev.</para>

<title>LIRC write fop</title>
<para>The data written to the chardev is a pulse/space sequence of integer
values. Pulses and spaces are only marked implicitly by their position. The
data must start and end with a pulse, therefore, the data must always include
an unevent number of samples. The write function must block until the data has
been transmitted by the hardware.</para>
</section>
<section id="lirc_ioctl">
<title>LIRC ioctl fop</title>
<para>The LIRC device's ioctl definition is bound by the ioctl function
definition of struct file_operations, leaving us with an unsigned int
for the ioctl command and an unsigned long for the arg. For the purposes
of ioctl portability across 32-bit and 64-bit, these values are capped
to their 32-bit sizes.</para>
<para>The following ioctls can be used to change specific hardware settings.
In general each driver should have a default set of settings. The driver
implementation is expected to re-apply the default settings when the device
is closed by user-space, so that every application opening the device can rely
on working with the default settings initially.</para>

--- What is AppArmor? ---
AppArmor is MAC style security extension for the Linux kernel. It implements
a task centered policy, with task "profiles" being created and loaded
from user space. Tasks on the system that do not have a profile defined for
them run in an unconfined state which is equivalent to standard Linux DAC
permissions.
--- How to enable/disable ---
set CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR=y
If AppArmor should be selected as the default security module then
set CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY="apparmor"
and CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_BOOTPARAM_VALUE=1
Build the kernel
If AppArmor is not the default security module it can be enabled by passing
security=apparmor on the kernel's command line.
If AppArmor is the default security module it can be disabled by passing
apparmor=0, security=XXXX (where XXX is valid security module), on the
kernel's command line
For AppArmor to enforce any restrictions beyond standard Linux DAC permissions
policy must be loaded into the kernel from user space (see the Documentation
and tools links).

The 'test_device_edac' sample driver is located at the
bluesmoke.sourceforge.net project site for EDAC.
=======================================================================
NEHALEM USAGE OF EDAC APIs
This chapter documents some EXPERIMENTAL mappings for EDAC API to handle
Nehalem EDAC driver. They will likely be changed on future versions
of the driver.
Due to the way Nehalem exports Memory Controller data, some adjustments
were done at i7core_edac driver. This chapter will cover those differences
1) On Nehalem, there are one Memory Controller per Quick Patch Interconnect
(QPI). At the driver, the term "socket" means one QPI. This is
associated with a physical CPU socket.
Each MC have 3 physical read channels, 3 physical write channels and
3 logic channels. The driver currenty sees it as just 3 channels.
Each channel can have up to 3 DIMMs.
The minimum known unity is DIMMs. There are no information about csrows.
As EDAC API maps the minimum unity is csrows, the driver sequencially
maps channel/dimm into different csrows.
For example, suposing the following layout:
Ch0 phy rd0, wr0 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
dimm 1 1024 Mb offset: 4, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
Ch1 phy rd1, wr1 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
Ch2 phy rd3, wr3 (0x063f4031): 2 ranks, UDIMMs
dimm 0 1024 Mb offset: 0, bank: 8, rank: 1, row: 0x4000, col: 0x400
The driver will map it as:
csrow0: channel 0, dimm0
csrow1: channel 0, dimm1
csrow2: channel 1, dimm0
csrow3: channel 2, dimm0
exports one
DIMM per csrow.
Each QPI is exported as a different memory controller.
2) Nehalem MC has the hability to generate errors. The driver implements this
functionality via some error injection nodes:
For injecting a memory error, there are some sysfs nodes, under
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc?/:
inject_addrmatch/*:
Controls the error injection mask register. It is possible to specify
several characteristics of the address to match an error code:
dimm = the affected dimm. Numbers are relative to a channel;
rank = the memory rank;
channel = the channel that will generate an error;
bank = the affected bank;
page = the page address;
column (or col) = the address column.
each of the above values can be set to "any" to match any valid value.
At driver init, all values are set to any.
For example, to generate an error at rank 1 of dimm 2, for any channel,
any bank, any page, any column:
echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm
echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank
To return to the default behaviour of matching any, you can do:
echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/dimm
echo any >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/rank
inject_eccmask:
specifies what bits will have troubles,
inject_section:
specifies what ECC cache section will get the error:
3 for both
2 for the highest
1 for the lowest
inject_type:
specifies the type of error, being a combination of the following bits:
bit 0 - repeat
bit 1 - ecc
bit 2 - parity
inject_enable starts the error generation when something different
than 0 is written.
All inject vars can be read. root permission is needed for write.
Datasheet states that the error will only be generated after a write on an
address that matches inject_addrmatch. It seems, however, that reading will
also produce an error.
For example, the following code will generate an error for any write access
at socket 0, on any DIMM/address on channel 2:
echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_addrmatch/channel
echo 2 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_type
echo 64 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_eccmask
echo 3 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_section
echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/inject_enable
dd if=/dev/mem of=/dev/null seek=16k bs=4k count=1 >& /dev/null
For socket 1, it is needed to replace "mc0" by "mc1" at the above
commands.
The generated error message will look like:
EDAC MC0: UE row 0, channel-a= 0 channel-b= 0 labels "-": NON_FATAL (addr = 0x0075b980, socket=0, Dimm=0, Channel=2, syndrome=0x00000040, count=1, Err=8c0000400001009f:4000080482 (read error: read ECC error))
3) Nehalem specific Corrected Error memory counters
Nehalem have some registers to count memory errors. The driver uses those
registers to report Corrected Errors on devices with Registered Dimms.
However, those counters don't work with Unregistered Dimms. As the chipset
offers some counters that also work with UDIMMS (but with a worse level of
granularity than the default ones), the driver exposes those registers for
UDIMM memories.
They can be read by looking at the contents of all_channel_counts/
$ for i in /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/*; do echo $i; cat $i; done
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm0
0
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm1
0
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0/all_channel_counts/udimm2
0
What happens here is that errors on different csrows, but at the same
dimm number will increment the same counter.
So, in this memory mapping:
csrow0: channel 0, dimm0
csrow1: channel 0, dimm1
csrow2: channel 1, dimm0
csrow3: channel 2, dimm0
The hardware will increment udimm0 for an error at the first dimm at either
csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
The hardware will increment udimm1 for an error at the second dimm at either
csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
The hardware will increment udimm2 for an error at the third dimm at either
csrow0, csrow2 or csrow3;
4) Standard error counters
The standard error counters are generated when an mcelog error is received
by the driver. Since, with udimm, this is counted by software, it is
possible that some errors could be lost. With rdimm's, they displays the
contents of the registers

Introduction
------------
In order to utilize the full power of the new multi-touch devices, a way to
report detailed finger data to user space is needed. This document
describes the multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows kernel drivers to
report details for an arbitrary number of fingers.
In order to utilize the full power of the new multi-touch and multi-user
devices, a way to report detailed data from multiple contacts, i.e.,
objects in direct contact with the device surface, is needed. This
document describes the multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows kernel
drivers to report details for an arbitrary number of contacts.
The protocol is divided into two types, depending on the capabilities of the
hardware. For devices handling anonymous contacts (type A), the protocol
describes how to send the raw data for all contacts to the receiver. For
devices capable of tracking identifiable contacts (type B), the protocol
describes how to send updates for individual contacts via event slots.
Usage
-----
Protocol Usage
--------------
Anonymous finger details are sent sequentially as separate packets of ABS
events. Only the ABS_MT events are recognized as part of a finger
packet. The end of a packet is marked by calling the input_mt_sync()
function, which generates a SYN_MT_REPORT event. This instructs the
receiver to accept the data for the current finger and prepare to receive
another. The end of a multi-touch transfer is marked by calling the usual
Contact details are sent sequentially as separate packets of ABS_MT
events. Only the ABS_MT events are recognized as part of a contact
packet. Since these events are ignored by current single-touch (ST)
applications, the MT protocol can be implemented on top of the ST protocol
in an existing driver.
Drivers for type A devices separate contact packets by calling
input_mt_sync() at the end of each packet. This generates a SYN_MT_REPORT
event, which instructs the receiver to accept the data for the current
contact and prepare to receive another.
Drivers for type B devices separate contact packets by calling
input_mt_slot(), with a slot as argument, at the beginning of each packet.
This generates an ABS_MT_SLOT event, which instructs the receiver to
prepare for updates of the given slot.
All drivers mark the end of a multi-touch transfer by calling the usual
input_sync() function. This instructs the receiver to act upon events
accumulated since last EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT and prepare to receive a new
set of events/packets.
accumulated since last EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT and prepare to receive a new set
of events/packets.
The main difference between the stateless type A protocol and the stateful
type B slot protocol lies in the usage of identifiable contacts to reduce
the amount of data sent to userspace. The slot protocol requires the use of
the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID, either provided by the hardware or computed from
the raw data [5].
For type A devices, the kernel driver should generate an arbitrary
enumeration of the full set of anonymous contacts currently on the
surface. The order in which the packets appear in the event stream is not
important. Event filtering and finger tracking is left to user space [3].
For type B devices, the kernel driver should associate a slot with each
identified contact, and use that slot to propagate changes for the contact.
Creation, replacement and destruction of contacts is achieved by modifying
the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID of the associated slot. A non-negative tracking id
is interpreted as a contact, and the value -1 denotes an unused slot. A
tracking id not previously present is considered new, and a tracking id no
longer present is considered removed. Since only changes are propagated,
the full state of each initiated contact has to reside in the receiving
end. Upon receiving an MT event, one simply updates the appropriate
attribute of the current slot.
Protocol Example A
------------------
Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look
like for a type A device:
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0]
SYN_MT_REPORT
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
SYN_MT_REPORT
SYN_REPORT
The sequence after moving one of the contacts looks exactly the same; the
raw data for all present contacts are sent between every synchronization
with SYN_REPORT.
Here is the sequence after lifting the first contact:
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
SYN_MT_REPORT
SYN_REPORT
And here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:
SYN_MT_REPORT
SYN_REPORT
If the driver reports one of BTN_TOUCH or ABS_PRESSURE in addition to the
ABS_MT events, the last SYN_MT_REPORT event may be omitted. Otherwise, the
last SYN_REPORT will be dropped by the input core, resulting in no
zero-contact event reaching userland.
Protocol Example B
------------------
Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look
like for a type B device:
ABS_MT_SLOT 0
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 45
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0]
ABS_MT_SLOT 1
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 46
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1]
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1]
SYN_REPORT
Here is the sequence after moving contact 45 in the x direction:
ABS_MT_SLOT 0
ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0]
SYN_REPORT
Here is the sequence after lifting the contact in slot 0:
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1
SYN_REPORT
The slot being modified is already 0, so the ABS_MT_SLOT is omitted. The
message removes the association of slot 0 with contact 45, thereby
destroying contact 45 and freeing slot 0 to be reused for another contact.
Finally, here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:
ABS_MT_SLOT 1
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1
SYN_REPORT
Event Usage
-----------
A set of ABS_MT events with the desired properties is defined. The events
are divided into categories, to allow for partial implementation. The
minimum set consists of ABS_MT_POSITION_X and ABS_MT_POSITION_Y, which
allows for multiple fingers to be tracked. If the device supports it, the

The process of finger tracking, i.e., to assign a unique trackingID to each
initiated contact on the surface, is left to user space; preferably the
multi-touch X driver [3]. In that driver, the trackingID stays the same and
unique until the contact vanishes (when the finger leaves the surface). The
problem of assigning a set of anonymous fingers to a set of identified
fingers is a euclidian bipartite matching problem at each event update, and
relies on a sufficiently rapid update rate.
