Here's the main documentation changes for 5.5:

- Various kerneldoc script enhancements.
 
  - More RST conversions; those are slowing down as we run out of things to
    convert, but we're a ways from done still.
 
  - Dan's "maintainer profile entry" work landed at last.  Now we just need
    to get maintainers to fill in the profiles...
 
  - A reworking of the parallel build setup to work better with a variety of
    systems (and to not take over huge systems entirely in particular).
 
  - The MAINTAINERS file is now converted to RST during the build.
    Hopefully nobody ever tries to print this thing, or they will need to
    load a lot of paper.
 
  - A script and documentation making it easy for maintainers to add Link:
    tags at commit time.
 
 Also included is the removal of a bunch of spurious CR characters.

int (32 bit) or unsigned long (32-bit or 64-bit, depending on your
machine) as noted per-field below. Unless your observations are very
spread in time, these fields should not wrap twice before you notice it.
Each set of stats only applies to the indicated device; if you want
system-wide stats you'll have to find all the devices and sum them all up.
Field 1 -- # of reads completed
Field 1 -- # of reads completed (unsigned long)
This is the total number of reads completed successfully.
Field 2 -- # of reads merged, field 6 -- # of writes merged
Field 2 -- # of reads merged, field 6 -- # of writes merged (unsigned long)
Reads and writes which are adjacent to each other may be merged for
efficiency. Thus two 4K reads may become one 8K read before it is
ultimately handed to the disk, and so it will be counted (and queued)
as only one I/O. This field lets you know how often this was done.
Field 3 -- # of sectors read
Field 3 -- # of sectors read (unsigned long)
This is the total number of sectors read successfully.
Field 4 -- # of milliseconds spent reading
Field 4 -- # of milliseconds spent reading (unsigned int)
This is the total number of milliseconds spent by all reads (as
measured from __make_request() to end_that_request_last()).
Field 5 -- # of writes completed
Field 5 -- # of writes completed (unsigned long)
This is the total number of writes completed successfully.
Field 6 -- # of writes merged
Field 6 -- # of writes merged (unsigned long)
See the description of field 2.
Field 7 -- # of sectors written
Field 7 -- # of sectors written (unsigned long)
This is the total number of sectors written successfully.
Field 8 -- # of milliseconds spent writing
Field 8 -- # of milliseconds spent writing (unsigned int)
This is the total number of milliseconds spent by all writes (as
measured from __make_request() to end_that_request_last()).
Field 9 -- # of I/Os currently in progress
Field 9 -- # of I/Os currently in progress (unsigned int)
The only field that should go to zero. Incremented as requests are
given to appropriate struct request_queue and decremented as they finish.
Field 10 -- # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os
Field 10 -- # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os (unsigned int)
This field increases so long as field 9 is nonzero.
Since 5.0 this field counts jiffies when at least one request was
started or completed. If request runs more than 2 jiffies then some
I/O time will not be accounted unless there are other requests.
Field 11 -- weighted # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os
Field 11 -- weighted # of milliseconds spent doing I/Os (unsigned int)
This field is incremented at each I/O start, I/O completion, I/O
merge, or read of these stats by the number of I/Os in progress
(field 9) times the number of milliseconds spent doing I/O since the
last update of this field. This can provide an easy measure of both
I/O completion time and the backlog that may be accumulating.
Field 12 -- # of discards completed
Field 12 -- # of discards completed (unsigned long)
This is the total number of discards completed successfully.
Field 13 -- # of discards merged
Field 13 -- # of discards merged (unsigned long)
See the description of field 2
Field 14 -- # of sectors discarded
Field 14 -- # of sectors discarded (unsigned long)
This is the total number of sectors discarded successfully.
Field 15 -- # of milliseconds spent discarding
Field 15 -- # of milliseconds spent discarding (unsigned int)
This is the total number of milliseconds spent by all discards (as
measured from __make_request() to end_that_request_last()).

Device Frequency Scaling
========================
Introduction
------------
This framework provides a standard kernel interface for Dynamic Voltage and
Frequency Switching on arbitrary devices.
It exposes controls for adjusting frequency through sysfs files which are
similar to the cpufreq subsystem.
Devices for which current usage can be measured can have their frequency
automatically adjusted by governors.
API
---
Device drivers need to initialize a :c:type:`devfreq_profile` and call the
:c:func:`devfreq_add_device` function to create a :c:type:`devfreq` instance.

Creating commit links to lore.kernel.org
----------------------------------------
The web site http://lore.kernel.org is meant as a grand archive of all mail
list traffic concerning or influencing the kernel development. Storing archives
of patches here is a recommended practice, and when a maintainer applies a
patch to a subsystem tree, it is a good idea to provide a Link: tag with a
reference back to the lore archive so that people that browse the commit
history can find related discussions and rationale behind a certain change.
The link tag will look like this:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/<message-id>
This can be configured to happen automatically any time you issue ``git am``
by adding the following hook into your git:
.. code-block:: none
$ git config am.messageid true
$ cat >.git/hooks/applypatch-msg <<'EOF'

Maintainer Entry Profile
========================
The Maintainer Entry Profile supplements the top-level process documents
(submitting-patches, submitting drivers...) with
subsystem/device-driver-local customs as well as details about the patch
submission life-cycle. A contributor uses this document to level set
their expectations and avoid common mistakes, maintainers may use these
profiles to look across subsystems for opportunities to converge on
common practices.
Overview
--------
Provide an introduction to how the subsystem operates. While MAINTAINERS
tells the contributor where to send patches for which files, it does not
convey other subsystem-local infrastructure and mechanisms that aid
development.
Example questions to consider:
- Are there notifications when patches are applied to the local tree, or
merged upstream?
- Does the subsystem have a patchwork instance? Are patchwork state
changes notified?
- Any bots or CI infrastructure that watches the list, or automated
testing feedback that the subsystem gates acceptance?
- Git branches that are pulled into -next?
- What branch should contributors submit against?
- Links to any other Maintainer Entry Profiles? For example a
device-driver may point to an entry for its parent subsystem. This makes
the contributor aware of obligations a maintainer may have have for
other maintainers in the submission chain.
Submit Checklist Addendum
-------------------------
List mandatory and advisory criteria, beyond the common "submit-checklist",
for a patch to be considered healthy enough for maintainer attention.
For example: "pass checkpatch.pl with no errors, or warning. Pass the
unit test detailed at $URI".
The Submit Checklist Addendum can also include details about the status
of related hardware specifications. For example, does the subsystem
require published specifications at a certain revision before patches
will be considered.
Key Cycle Dates
---------------
One of the common misunderstandings of submitters is that patches can be
sent at any time before the merge window closes and can still be
considered for the next -rc1. The reality is that most patches need to
be settled in soaking in linux-next in advance of the merge window
opening. Clarify for the submitter the key dates (in terms rc release
week) that patches might considered for merging and when patches need to
wait for the next -rc. At a minimum:
- Last -rc for new feature submissions:
New feature submissions targeting the next merge window should have
their first posting for consideration before this point. Patches that
are submitted after this point should be clear that they are targeting
the NEXT+1 merge window, or should come with sufficient justification
why they should be considered on an expedited schedule. A general
guideline is to set expectation with contributors that new feature
submissions should appear before -rc5.
- Last -rc to merge features: Deadline for merge decisions
Indicate to contributors the point at which an as yet un-applied patch
set will need to wait for the NEXT+1 merge window. Of course there is no
obligation to ever except any given patchset, but if the review has not
concluded by this point the expectation the contributor should wait and
resubmit for the following merge window.
Optional:
- First -rc at which the development baseline branch, listed in the
overview section, should be considered ready for new submissions.
Review Cadence
--------------
One of the largest sources of contributor angst is how soon to ping
after a patchset has been posted without receiving any feedback. In
addition to specifying how long to wait before a resubmission this
section can also indicate a preferred style of update like, resend the
full series, or privately send a reminder email. This section might also
list how review works for this code area and methods to get feedback
that are not directly from the maintainer.
Existing profiles
-----------------
For now, existing maintainer profiles are listed here; we will likely want
to do something different in the near future.

For a full description of SD-FEC core features, see the `SD-FEC Product Guide (PG256) <https://www.xilinx.com/cgi-bin/docs/ipdoc?c=sd_fec;v=latest;d=pg256-sdfec-integrated-block.pdf>`_
This driver supports the following features:
- Retrieval of the Integrated Block configuration and status information
- Configuration of LDPC codes
- Configuration of Turbo decoding
- Monitoring errors
Missing features, known issues, and limitations of the SD-FEC driver are as
follows:
- Only allows a single open file handler to any instance of the driver at any time
- Reset of the SD-FEC Integrated Block is not controlled by this driver
- Does not support shared LDPC code table wraparound
The device tree entry is described in:
`linux-xlnx/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/misc/xlnx,sd-fec.txt <https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/misc/xlnx%2Csd-fec.txt>`_
Modes of Operation
------------------
The driver works with the SD-FEC core in two modes of operation:
- Run-time configuration
- Programmable Logic (PL) initialization
Run-time Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For Run-time configuration the role of driver is to allow the software application to do the following:
- Load the configuration parameters for either Turbo decode or LDPC encode or decode
- Activate the SD-FEC core
- Monitor the SD-FEC core for errors
- Retrieve the status and configuration of the SD-FEC core
Programmable Logic (PL) Initialization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For PL initialization, supporting logic loads configuration parameters for either
the Turbo decode or LDPC encode or decode. The role of the driver is to allow
the software application to do the following:
- Activate the SD-FEC core
- Monitor the SD-FEC core for errors
- Retrieve the status and configuration of the SD-FEC core
Driver Structure
================
The driver provides a platform device where the ``probe`` and ``remove``
operations are provided.
- probe: Updates configuration register with device-tree entries plus determines the current activate state of the core, for example, is the core bypassed or has the core been started.
The driver defines the following driver file operations to provide user
application interfaces:
- open: Implements restriction that only a single file descriptor can be open per SD-FEC instance at any time
- release: Allows another file descriptor to be open, that is after current file descriptor is closed
- poll: Provides a method to monitor for SD-FEC Error events
- unlocked_ioctl: Provides the the following ioctl commands that allows the application configure the SD-FEC core:
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_START_DEV`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_STOP_DEV`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_IRQ`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_TURBO`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_ADD_LDPC_CODE_PARAMS`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_ORDER`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_BYPASS`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_IS_ACTIVE`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_CLEAR_STATS`
- :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_DEFAULT_CONFIG`
Driver Usage
============
Overview
--------
After opening the driver, the user should find out what operations need to be
performed to configure and activate the SD-FEC core and determine the
configuration of the driver.
The following outlines the flow the user should perform:
- Determine Configuration
- Set the order, if not already configured as desired
- Set Turbo decode, LPDC encode or decode parameters, depending on how the
SD-FEC core is configured plus if the SD-FEC has not been configured for PL
initialization
- Enable interrupts, if not already enabled
- Bypass the SD-FEC core, if required
- Start the SD-FEC core if not already started
- Get the SD-FEC core status
- Monitor for interrupts
- Stop the SD-FEC core
Note: When monitoring for interrupts if a critical error is detected where a reset is required, the driver will be required to load the default configuration.
Determine Configuration
-----------------------
Determine the configuration of the SD-FEC core by using the ioctl
:c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG`.
Set the Order
-------------
Setting the order determines how the order of Blocks can change from input to output.
Setting the order is done by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_ORDER`
Setting the order can only be done if the following restrictions are met:
- The ``state`` member of struct :c:type:`xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS` indicates the SD-FEC core has not STARTED
Add LDPC Codes
--------------
The following steps indicate how to add LDPC codes to the SD-FEC core:
- Use the auto-generated parameters to fill the :c:type:`struct xsdfec_ldpc_params <xsdfec_ldpc_params>` for the desired LDPC code.
- Set the SC, QA, and LA table offsets for the LPDC parameters and the parameters in the structure :c:type:`struct xsdfec_ldpc_params <xsdfec_ldpc_params>`
- Set the desired Code Id value in the structure :c:type:`struct xsdfec_ldpc_params <xsdfec_ldpc_params>`
- Add the LPDC Code Parameters using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_ADD_LDPC_CODE_PARAMS`
- For the applied LPDC Code Parameter use the function :c:func:`xsdfec_calculate_shared_ldpc_table_entry_size` to calculate the size of shared LPDC code tables. This allows the user to determine the shared table usage so when selecting the table offsets for the next LDPC code parameters unused table areas can be selected.
- Repeat for each LDPC code parameter.
Adding LDPC codes can only be done if the following restrictions are met:
- The ``code`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_config <xsdfec_config>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG` indicates the SD-FEC core is configured as LDPC
- The ``code_wr_protect`` of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_config <xsdfec_config>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG` indicates that write protection is not enabled
- The ``state`` member of struct :c:type:`xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS` indicates the SD-FEC core has not started
Set Turbo Decode
----------------
Configuring the Turbo decode parameters is done by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_TURBO` using auto-generated parameters to fill the :c:type:`struct xsdfec_turbo <xsdfec_turbo>` for the desired Turbo code.
Adding Turbo decode can only be done if the following restrictions are met:
- The ``code`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_config <xsdfec_config>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG` indicates the SD-FEC core is configured as TURBO
- The ``state`` member of struct :c:type:`xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS` indicates the SD-FEC core has not STARTED
Enable Interrupts
-----------------
Enabling or disabling interrupts is done by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_IRQ`. The members of the parameter passed, :c:type:`struct xsdfec_irq <xsdfec_irq>`, to the ioctl are used to set and clear different categories of interrupts. The category of interrupt is controlled as following:
- ``enable_isr`` controls the ``tlast`` interrupts
- ``enable_ecc_isr`` controls the ECC interrupts
If the ``code`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_config <xsdfec_config>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_CONFIG` indicates the SD-FEC core is configured as TURBO then the enabling ECC errors is not required.
Bypass the SD-FEC
-----------------
Bypassing the SD-FEC is done by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_BYPASS`
Bypassing the SD-FEC can only be done if the following restrictions are met:
- The ``state`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>` filled by the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS` indicates the SD-FEC core has not STARTED
Start the SD-FEC core
---------------------
Start the SD-FEC core by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_START_DEV`
Get SD-FEC Status
-----------------
Get the SD-FEC status of the device by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS`, which will fill the :c:type:`struct xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>`
Monitor for Interrupts
----------------------
- Use the poll system call to monitor for an interrupt. The poll system call waits for an interrupt to wake it up or times out if no interrupt occurs.
- On return Poll ``revents`` will indicate whether stats and/or state have been updated
- ``POLLPRI`` indicates a critical error and the user should use :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS` and :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATS` to confirm
- ``POLLRDNORM`` indicates a non-critical error has occurred and the user should use :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATS` to confirm
- Get stats by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATS`
- For critical error the ``isr_err_count`` or ``uecc_count`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_stats <xsdfec_stats>` is non-zero
- For non-critical errors the ``cecc_count`` member of :c:type:`struct xsdfec_stats <xsdfec_stats>` is non-zero
- Get state by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS`
- For a critical error the ``state`` of :c:type:`xsdfec_status <xsdfec_status>` will indicate a Reset Is Required
- Clear stats by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_CLEAR_STATS`
If a critical error is detected where a reset is required. The application is required to call the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_DEFAULT_CONFIG`, after the reset and it is not required to call the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_STOP_DEV`
Note: Using poll system call prevents busy looping using :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATS` and :c:macro:`XSDFEC_GET_STATUS`
Stop the SD-FEC Core
---------------------
Stop the device by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_STOP_DEV`
Set the Default Configuration
-----------------------------
Load default configuration by using the ioctl :c:macro:`XSDFEC_SET_DEFAULT_CONFIG` to restore the driver.
Limitations
-----------
Users should not duplicate SD-FEC device file handlers, for example fork() or dup() a process that has a created an SD-FEC file handler.

LIBNVDIMM Maintainer Entry Profile
==================================
Overview
--------
The libnvdimm subsystem manages persistent memory across multiple
architectures. The mailing list, is tracked by patchwork here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-nvdimm/list/
...and that instance is configured to give feedback to submitters on
patch acceptance and upstream merge. Patches are merged to either the
'libnvdimm-fixes', or 'libnvdimm-for-next' branch. Those branches are
available here:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm.git/
In general patches can be submitted against the latest -rc, however if
the incoming code change is dependent on other pending changes then the
patch should be based on the libnvdimm-for-next branch. However, since
persistent memory sits at the intersection of storage and memory there
are cases where patches are more suitable to be merged through a
Filesystem or the Memory Management tree. When in doubt copy the nvdimm
list and the maintainers will help route.
Submissions will be exposed to the kbuild robot for compile regression
testing. It helps to get a success notification from that infrastructure
before submitting, but it is not required.
Submit Checklist Addendum
-------------------------
There are unit tests for the subsystem via the ndctl utility:
https://github.com/pmem/ndctl
Those tests need to be passed before the patches go upstream, but not
necessarily before initial posting. Contact the list if you need help
getting the test environment set up.
### ACPI Device Specific Methods (_DSM)
Before patches enabling for a new _DSM family will be considered it must
be assigned a format-interface-code from the NVDIMM Sub-team of the ACPI
Specification Working Group. In general, the stance of the subsystem is
to push back on the proliferation of NVDIMM command sets, do strongly
consider implementing support for an existing command set. See
drivers/acpi/nfit/nfit.h for the set of support command sets.
Key Cycle Dates
---------------
New submissions can be sent at any time, but if they intend to hit the
next merge window they should be sent before -rc4, and ideally
stabilized in the libnvdimm-for-next branch by -rc6. Of course if a
patch set requires more than 2 weeks of review -rc4 is already too late
and some patches may require multiple development cycles to review.
Review Cadence
--------------
In general, please wait up to one week before pinging for feedback. A
private mail reminder is preferred. Alternatively ask for other
developers that have Reviewed-by tags for libnvdimm changes to take a
look and offer their opinion.

16) Sending ``git pull`` requests
16) Providing base tree information
-----------------------------------
When other developers receive your patches and start the review process,
it is often useful for them to know where in the tree history they
should place your work. This is particularly useful for automated CI
processes that attempt to run a series of tests in order to establish
the quality of your submission before the maintainer starts the review.
If you are using ``git format-patch`` to generate your patches, you can
automatically include the base tree information in your submission by
using the ``--base`` flag. The easiest and most convenient way to use
this option is with topical branches::
$ git checkout -t -b my-topical-branch master
Branch 'my-topical-branch' set up to track local branch 'master'.
Switched to a new branch 'my-topical-branch'
[perform your edits and commits]
$ git format-patch --base=auto --cover-letter -o outgoing/ master
outgoing/0000-cover-letter.patch
outgoing/0001-First-Commit.patch
outgoing/...
When you open ``outgoing/0000-cover-letter.patch`` for editing, you will
notice that it will have the ``base-commit:`` trailer at the very
bottom, which provides the reviewer and the CI tools enough information
to properly perform ``git am`` without worrying about conflicts::
$ git checkout -b patch-review [base-commit-id]
Switched to a new branch 'patch-review'
$ git am patches.mbox
Applying: First Commit
Applying: ...
Please see ``man git-format-patch`` for more information about this
option.
.. note::
The ``--base`` feature was introduced in git version 2.9.0.
If you are not using git to format your patches, you can still include
the same ``base-commit`` trailer to indicate the commit hash of the tree
on which your work is based. You should add it either in the cover
letter or in the first patch of the series and it should be placed
either below the ``---`` line or at the very bottom of all other
content, right before your email signature.

*Note:* When programming any address comparator the driver will tag the
comparator with a type used - i.e. RANGE, SINGLE, START, STOP. Once this tag
is set, then only the values can be changed using the same sysfs file / type
used to program it.
Thus::
% echo 0 > addr_idx ; select address comparator 0
% echo 0x1000 0x5000 0 > addr_range ; set address range on comparators 0, 1.
% echo 0x2000 > addr_start ; error as comparator 0 is a range comparator
% echo 2 > addr_idx ; select address comparator 2
% echo 0x2000 > addr_start ; this is OK as comparator 2 is unused.
% echo 0x3000 > addr_stop ; error as comparator 2 set as start address.
% echo 2 > addr_idx ; select address comparator 3
% echo 0x3000 > addr_stop ; this is OK
To remove programming on all the comparators (and all the other hardware) use
the reset parameter::
% echo 1 > reset
The mode sysfs parameter.
---------------------------
This is a bitfield selection parameter that sets the overall trace mode for the
ETM. The table below describes the bits, using the defines from the driver
source file, along with a description of the feature these represent. Many
features are optional and therefore dependent on implementation in the
hardware.
Bit assignments shown below:-
----
**bit (0):**
ETM_MODE_EXCLUDE
**description:**
This is the default value for the include / exclude function when
setting address ranges. Set 1 for exclude range. When the mode
parameter is set this value is applied to the currently indexed
address range.
**bit (4):**
ETM_MODE_BB
**description:**
Set to enable branch broadcast if supported in hardware [IDR0].
**bit (5):**
ETMv4_MODE_CYCACC
**description:**
Set to enable cycle accurate trace if supported [IDR0].
**bit (6):**
ETMv4_MODE_CTXID
**description:**
Set to enable context ID tracing if supported in hardware [IDR2].
**bit (7):**
ETM_MODE_VMID
**description:**
Set to enable virtual machine ID tracing if supported [IDR2].
**bit (11):**
ETMv4_MODE_TIMESTAMP
**description:**
Set to enable timestamp generation if supported [IDR0].
**bit (12):**
ETM_MODE_RETURNSTACK
**description:**
Set to enable trace return stack use if supported [IDR0].
**bit (13-14):**
ETM_MODE_QELEM(val)
**description:**
val determines level of Q element support enabled if
implemented by the ETM [IDR0]
**bit (19):**
ETM_MODE_ATB_TRIGGER
**description:**
Set to enable the ATBTRIGGER bit in the event control register
[EVENTCTLR1] if supported [IDR5].
**bit (20):**
ETM_MODE_LPOVERRIDE
**description:**
Set to enable the LPOVERRIDE bit in the event control register
[EVENTCTLR1], if supported [IDR5].
**bit (21):**
ETM_MODE_ISTALL_EN
**description:**
Set to enable the ISTALL bit in the stall control register
[STALLCTLR]
**bit (23):**
ETM_MODE_INSTPRIO
**description:**
Set to enable the INSTPRIORITY bit in the stall control register
[STALLCTLR] , if supported [IDR0].
**bit (24):**
ETM_MODE_NOOVERFLOW
**description:**
Set to enable the NOOVERFLOW bit in the stall control register
[STALLCTLR], if supported [IDR3].
**bit (25):**
ETM_MODE_TRACE_RESET
**description:**
Set to enable the TRCRESET bit in the viewinst control register
[VICTLR] , if supported [IDR3].
**bit (26):**
ETM_MODE_TRACE_ERR
**description:**
Set to enable the TRCCTRL bit in the viewinst control register
[VICTLR].
**bit (27):**
ETM_MODE_VIEWINST_STARTSTOP
**description:**
Set the initial state value of the ViewInst start / stop logic
in the viewinst control register [VICTLR]
**bit (30):**
ETM_MODE_EXCL_KERN
**description:**
Set default trace setup to exclude kernel mode trace (see note a)
**bit (31):**
ETM_MODE_EXCL_USER
**description:**
Set default trace setup to exclude user space trace (see note a)
----
*Note a)* On startup the ETM is programmed to trace the complete address space
using address range comparator 0. mode bits 30 / 31 modify this setting to
set EL exclude bits for NS state in either user space (EL0) or kernel space
(EL1) in the address range comparator. (the default setting excludes all
secure EL, and NS EL2)
Once the reset parameter has been used, and/or custom programming has been
implemented - using these bits will result in the EL bits for address
comparator 0 being set in the same way.
*Note b)* Bits 2-3, 8-10, 15-16, 18, 22, control features that only work with
data trace. As A-profile data trace is architecturally prohibited in ETMv4,
these have been omitted here. Possible uses could be where a kernel has
support for control of R or M profile infrastructure as part of a heterogeneous
system.
Bits 17, 28-29 are unused.

거쳐야 한다. 이런 목적으로, 모든 서브시스템 트리의 변경사항을 거의 매일
받아가는 특수한 테스트 저장소가 존재한다:
https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git
이런 식으로, -next 커널을 통해 다음 머지 기간에 메인라인 커널에 어떤 변경이
가해질 것인지 간략히 알 수 있다. 모험심 강한 테스터라면 -next 커널에서 테스트를
수행하는 것도 좋을 것이다.

MMIO 쓰기 배리어

리눅스 커널은 또한 memory-mapped I/O 쓰기를 위한 특별한 배리어도 가지고
있습니다:
mmiowb();
이것은 mandatory 쓰기 배리어의 변종으로, 완화된 순서 규칙의 I/O 영역에으로의
쓰기가 부분적으로 순서를 맞추도록 해줍니다. 이 함수는 CPU->하드웨어 사이를
넘어서 실제 하드웨어에까지 일부 수준의 영향을 끼칩니다.

ACQUIRE VS I/O 액세스
----------------------
특정한 (특히 NUMA 가 관련된) 환경 하에서 두개의 CPU 에서 동일한 스핀락으로
보호되는 두개의 크리티컬 섹션 안의 I/O 액세스는 PCI 브릿지에 겹쳐진 I/O
액세스로 보일 수 있는데, PCI 브릿지는 캐시 일관성 프로토콜과 합을 맞춰야 할
의무가 없으므로, 필요한 읽기 메모리 배리어가 요청되지 않기 때문입니다.
예를 들어서:
CPU 1 CPU 2
=============================== ===============================
spin_lock(Q)
writel(0, ADDR)
writel(1, DATA);
spin_unlock(Q);
spin_lock(Q);
writel(4, ADDR);
writel(5, DATA);
spin_unlock(Q);
는 PCI 브릿지에 다음과 같이 보일 수 있습니다:
STORE *ADDR = 0, STORE *ADDR = 4, STORE *DATA = 1, STORE *DATA = 5
이렇게 되면 하드웨어의 오동작을 일으킬 수 있습니다.
이런 경우엔 잡아둔 스핀락을 내려놓기 전에 mmiowb() 를 수행해야 하는데, 예를
들면 다음과 같습니다:
CPU 1 CPU 2
=============================== ===============================
spin_lock(Q)
writel(0, ADDR)
writel(1, DATA);
mmiowb();
spin_unlock(Q);
spin_lock(Q);
writel(4, ADDR);
writel(5, DATA);
mmiowb();
spin_unlock(Q);
이 코드는 CPU 1 에서 요청된 두개의 스토어가 PCI 브릿지에 CPU 2 에서 요청된
스토어들보다 먼저 보여짐을 보장합니다.
또한, 같은 디바이스에서 스토어를 이어 로드가 수행되면 이 로드는 로드가 수행되기
전에 스토어가 완료되기를 강제하므로 mmiowb() 의 필요가 없어집니다:
CPU 1 CPU 2
=============================== ===============================
spin_lock(Q)
writel(0, ADDR)
a = readl(DATA);
spin_unlock(Q);

커널 I/O 배리어의 효과
======================
I/O 메모리에 액세스할 때, 드라이버는 적절한 액세스 함수를 사용해야 합니다:
(*) inX(), outX():
이것들은 메모리 공간보다는 I/O 공간에 이야기를 하려는 의도로
만들어졌습니다만, 그건 기본적으로 CPU 마다 다른 컨셉입니다. i386 과
x86_64 프로세서들은 특별한 I/O 공간 액세스 사이클과 명령어를 실제로 가지고
있지만, 다른 많은 CPU 들에는 그런 컨셉이 존재하지 않습니다.
다른 것들 중에서도 PCI 버스가 I/O 공간 컨셉을 정의하는데, 이는 - i386 과
x86_64 같은 CPU 에서 - CPU 의 I/O 공간 컨셉으로 쉽게 매치됩니다. 하지만,
대체할 I/O 공간이 없는 CPU 에서는 CPU 의 메모리 맵의 가상 I/O 공간으로
매핑될 수도 있습니다.
이 공간으로의 액세스는 (i386 등에서는) 완전하게 동기화 됩니다만, 중간의
(PCI 호스트 브리지와 같은) 브리지들은 이를 완전히 보장하진 않을수도
있습니다.
이것들의 상호간의 순서는 완전하게 보장됩니다.
다른 타입의 메모리 오퍼레이션, I/O 오퍼레이션에 대한 순서는 완전하게
보장되지는 않습니다.
I/O 액세스를 통한 주변장치와의 통신은 아키텍쳐와 기기에 매우 종속적입니다.
따라서, 본질적으로 이식성이 없는 드라이버는 가능한 가장 적은 오버헤드로
동기화를 하기 위해 각자의 타겟 시스템의 특정 동작에 의존할 겁니다. 다양한
아키텍쳐와 버스 구현에 이식성을 가지려 하는 드라이버를 위해, 커널은 다양한
정도의 순서 보장을 제공하는 일련의 액세스 함수를 제공합니다.
(*) readX(), writeX():
이것들이 수행 요청되는 CPU 에서 서로에게 완전히 순서가 맞춰지고 독립적으로
수행되는지에 대한 보장 여부는 이들이 액세스 하는 메모리 윈도우에 정의된
특성에 의해 결정됩니다. 예를 들어, 최신의 i386 아키텍쳐 머신에서는 MTRR
레지스터로 이 특성이 조정됩니다.
readX() 와 writeX() MMIO 액세스 함수는 접근되는 주변장치로의 포인터를
__iomem * 패러미터로 받습니다. 디폴트 I/O 기능으로 매핑되는 포인터
(예: ioremap() 으로 반환되는 것) 의 순서 보장은 다음과 같습니다:
일반적으로는, 프리페치 (prefetch) 가능한 디바이스를 액세스 하는게
아니라면, 이것들은 완전히 순서가 맞춰지고 결합되지 않게 보장될 겁니다.
1. 같은 주변장치로의 모든 readX() 와 writeX() 액세스는 각자에 대해
순서지어집니다. 이는 같은 CPU 쓰레드에 의한 특정 디바이스로의 MMIO
레지스터 액세스가 프로그램 순서대로 도착할 것을 보장합니다.
하지만, (PCI 브리지와 같은) 중간의 하드웨어는 자신이 원한다면 집행을
연기시킬 수 있습니다; 스토어 명령을 실제로 하드웨어로 내려보내기(flush)
위해서는 같은 위치로부터 로드를 하는 방법이 있습니다만[*], PCI 의 경우는
같은 디바이스나 환경 구성 영역에서의 로드만으로도 충분할 겁니다.
2. 한 스핀락을 잡은 CPU 쓰레드에 의한 writeX() 는 같은 스핀락을 나중에
잡은 다른 CPU 쓰레드에 의해 같은 주변장치를 향해 호출된 writeX()
앞으로 순서지어집니다. 이는 스핀락을 잡은 채 특정 디바이스를 향해
호출된 MMIO 레지스터 쓰기는 해당 락의 획득에 일관적인 순서로 도달할
것을 보장합니다.
[*] 주의! 쓰여진 것과 같은 위치로부터의 로드를 시도하는 것은 오동작을
일으킬 수도 있습니다 - 예로 16650 Rx/Tx 시리얼 레지스터를 생각해
보세요.
3. 특정 주변장치를 향한 특정 CPU 쓰레드의 writeX() 는 먼저 해당
쓰레드로 전파되는, 또는 해당 쓰레드에 의해 요청된 모든 앞선 메모리
쓰기가 완료되기 전까지 먼저 기다립니다. 이는 dma_alloc_coherent()
를 통해 할당된 전송용 DMA 버퍼로의 해당 CPU 의 쓰기가 이 CPU 가 이
전송을 시작시키기 위해 MMIO 컨트롤 레지스터에 쓰기를 할 때 DMA
엔진에 보여질 것을 보장합니다.
프리페치 가능한 I/O 메모리가 사용되면, 스토어 명령들이 순서를 지키도록
하기 위해 mmiowb() 배리어가 필요할 수 있습니다.
4. 특정 CPU 쓰레드에 의한 주변장치로의 readX() 는 같은 쓰레드에 의한
모든 뒤따르는 메모리 읽기가 시작되기 전에 완료됩니다. 이는
dma_alloc_coherent() 를 통해 할당된 수신용 DMA 버퍼로부터의 CPU 의
읽기는 이 DMA 수신의 완료를 표시하는 DMA 엔진의 MMIO 상태 레지스터
읽기 후에는 오염된 데이터를 읽지 않을 것을 보장합니다.
PCI 트랜잭션 사이의 상호작용에 대해 더 많은 정보를 위해선 PCI 명세서를
참고하시기 바랍니다.
5. CPU 에 의한 주변장치로의 readX() 는 모든 뒤따르는 delay() 루프가
수행을 시작하기 전에 완료됩니다. 이는 CPU 의 특정
주변장치로의 두개의 MMIO 레지스터 쓰기가 행해지는데 첫번째 쓰기가
readX() 를 통해 곧바로 읽어졌고 이어 두번째 writeX() 전에 udelay(1)
이 호출되었다면 이 두개의 쓰기는 최소 1us 의 간격을 두고 행해질 것을
보장합니다:
writel(42, DEVICE_REGISTER_0); // 디바이스에 도착함...
readl(DEVICE_REGISTER_0);
udelay(1);
writel(42, DEVICE_REGISTER_1); // ...이것보다 최소 1us 전에.
디폴트가 아닌 기능을 통해 얻어지는 __iomem 포인터 (예: ioremap_wc() 를
통해 리턴되는 것) 의 순서 속성은 실제 아키텍쳐에 의존적이어서 이런
종류의 매핑으로의 액세스는 앞서 설명된 보장사항에 의존할 수 없습니다.
(*) readX_relaxed(), writeX_relaxed()
이것들은 readX() 와 writeX() 랑 비슷하지만, 더 완화된 메모리 순서 보장을
제공합니다. 구체적으로, 이것들은 일반적 메모리 액세스 (예: DMA 버퍼) 에도
LOCK 이나 UNLOCK 오퍼레이션들에도 순서를 보장하지 않습니다. LOCK 이나
UNLOCK 오퍼레이션들에 맞춰지는 순서가 필요하다면, mmiowb() 배리어가 사용될
수 있습니다. 같은 주변 장치에의 완화된 액세스끼리는 순서가 지켜짐을 알아
두시기 바랍니다.
이것들은 readX() 와 writeX() 랑 비슷하지만, 더 완화된 메모리 순서
보장을 제공합니다. 구체적으로, 이것들은 일반적 메모리 액세스나 delay()
루프 (예:앞의 2-5 항목) 에 대해 순서를 보장하지 않습니다만 디폴트 I/O
기능으로 매핑된 __iomem 포인터에 대해 동작할 때, 같은 CPU 쓰레드에 의해
같은 주변장치로의 액세스에는 순서가 맞춰질 것이 보장됩니다.
(*) readsX(), writesX():
readsX() 와 writesX() MMIO 액세스 함수는 DMA 를 수행하는데 적절치 않은,
주변장치 내의 메모리 매핑된 레지스터 기반 FIFO 로의 액세스를 위해
설계되었습니다. 따라서, 이 기능들은 앞서 설명된 readX_relaxed() 와
writeX_relaxed() 의 순서 보장만을 제공합니다.
(*) inX(), outX():
inX() 와 outX() 액세스 함수는 일부 아키텍쳐 (특히 x86) 에서는 특수한
명령어를 필요로 하며 포트에 매핑되는, 과거의 유산인 I/O 주변장치로의
접근을 위해 만들어졌습니다.
많은 CPU 아키텍쳐가 결국은 이런 주변장치를 내부의 가상 메모리 매핑을
통해 접근하기 때문에, inX() 와 outX() 가 제공하는 이식성 있는 순서
보장은 디폴트 I/O 기능을 통한 매핑을 접근할 때의 readX() 와 writeX() 에
의해 제공되는 것과 각각 동일합니다.
디바이스 드라이버는 outX() 가 리턴하기 전에 해당 I/O 주변장치로부터의
완료 응답을 기다리는 쓰기 트랜잭션을 만들어 낸다고 기대할 수도
있습니다. 이는 모든 아키텍쳐에서 보장되지는 않고, 따라서 이식성 있는
순서 규칙의 일부분이 아닙니다.
(*) insX(), outsX():
앞에서와 같이, insX() 와 outsX() 액세스 함수는 디폴트 I/O 기능을 통한
매핑을 접근할 때 각각 readX() 와 writeX() 와 같은 순서 보장을
제공합니다.
(*) ioreadX(), iowriteX()
이것들은 inX()/outX() 나 readX()/writeX() 처럼 실제로 수행하는 액세스의
종류에 따라 적절하게 수행될 것입니다.
이것들은 inX()/outX() 나 readX()/writeX() 처럼 실제로 수행하는 액세스의
종류에 따라 적절하게 수행될 것입니다.
String 액세스 함수 (insX(), outsX(), readsX() 그리고 writesX()) 의 예외를
제외하고는, 앞의 모든 것이 아랫단의 주변장치가 little-endian 이라 가정하며,
따라서 big-endian 아키텍쳐에서는 byte-swapping 오퍼레이션을 수행합니다.
