+<title>Generic PCI UIO driver</title>
+ <para>
+ The generic driver is a kernel module named uio_pci_generic.
+ It can work with any device compliant to PCI 2.3 (circa 2002) and
+ any compliant PCI Express device. Using this, you only need to
+ write the userspace driver, removing the need to write
+ a hardware-specific kernel module.
+ </para>
+
+<sect1 id="uio_pci_generic_binding">
+<title>Making the driver recognize the device</title>
+ <para>
+Since the driver does not declare any device ids, it will not get loaded
+automatically and will not automatically bind to any devices, you must load it
+and allocate id to the driver yourself. For example:
+ <programlisting>
+ modprobe uio_pci_generic
+ echo &quot;8086 10f5&quot; &gt; /sys/bus/pci/drivers/uio_pci_generic/new_id
+ </programlisting>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+If there already is a hardware specific kernel driver for your device, the
+generic driver still won't bind to it, in this case if you want to use the
+generic driver (why would you?) you'll have to manually unbind the hardware
+specific driver and bind the generic driver, like this:
+ <programlisting>
+ echo -n 0000:00:19.0 &gt; /sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/unbind
+ echo -n 0000:00:19.0 &gt; /sys/bus/pci/drivers/uio_pci_generic/bind
+ </programlisting>
+ </para>
+ <para>
+You can verify that the device has been bound to the driver
+by looking for it in sysfs, for example like the following:
+ <programlisting>
+ ls -l /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:19.0/driver
+ </programlisting>
+Which if successful should print
+ <programlisting>
+ .../0000:00:19.0/driver -&gt; ../../../bus/pci/drivers/uio_pci_generic
+ </programlisting>
+Note that the generic driver will not bind to old PCI 2.2 devices.
+If binding the device failed, run the following command:
+ <programlisting>
+ dmesg
+ </programlisting>
+and look in the output for failure reasons

+Interrupts are handled using the Interrupt Disable bit in the PCI command

+Intel(R) TXT Overview:
+=====================
+
+Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel(R) Trusted Execution
+Technology (Intel(R) TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
+provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.
+
+Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).
+
+Intel TXT in Brief:
+o Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
+o Data protection in case of improper shutdown
+o Measurement and verification of launched environment
+
+Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
+non-vPro systems. It is currently available on desktop systems
+based on the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell
+Optiplex 755, HP dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45,
+PM45, and GS45 Express chipsets.
+
+For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/.
+This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual,
+which has been updated for the new released platforms.
+
+Intel TXT has been presented at various events over the past few
+years, some of which are:

+
+Trusted Boot Project Overview:
+=============================
+
+Trusted Boot (tboot) is an open source, pre- kernel/VMM module that
+uses Intel TXT to perform a measured and verified launch of an OS
+kernel/VMM.
+
+It is hosted on SourceForge at http://sourceforge.net/projects/tboot.
+The mercurial source repo is available at http://www.bughost.org/
+repos.hg/tboot.hg.
+
+Tboot currently supports launching Xen (open source VMM/hypervisor
+w/ TXT support since v3.2), and now Linux kernels.
+
+
+Value Proposition for Linux or "Why should you care?"
+=====================================================
+
+While there are many products and technologies that attempt to
+measure or protect the integrity of a running kernel, they all
+assume the kernel is "good" to begin with. The Integrity
+Measurement Architecture (IMA) and Linux Integrity Module interface
+are examples of such solutions.
+
+To get trust in the initial kernel without using Intel TXT, a
+static root of trust must be used. This bases trust in BIOS
+starting at system reset and requires measurement of all code
+executed between system reset through the completion of the kernel
+boot as well as data objects used by that code. In the case of a
+Linux kernel, this means all of BIOS, any option ROMs, the
+bootloader and the boot config. In practice, this is a lot of
+code/data, much of which is subject to change from boot to boot
+(e.g. changing NICs may change option ROMs). Without reference
+hashes, these measurement changes are difficult to assess or
+confirm as benign. This process also does not provide DMA
+protection, memory configuration/alias checks and locks, crash
+protection, or policy support.
+
+By using the hardware-based root of trust that Intel TXT provides,
+many of these issues can be mitigated. Specifically: many
+pre-launch components can be removed from the trust chain, DMA
+protection is provided to all launched components, a large number
+of platform configuration checks are performed and values locked,
+protection is provided for any data in the event of an improper
+shutdown, and there is support for policy-based execution/verification.
+This provides a more stable measurement and a higher assurance of
+system configuration and initial state than would be otherwise
+possible. Since the tboot project is open source, source code for
+almost all parts of the trust chain is available (excepting SMM and
+Intel-provided firmware).
+
+How Does it Work?
+=================
+
+o Tboot is an executable that is launched by the bootloader as
+ the "kernel" (the binary the bootloader executes).
+o It performs all of the work necessary to determine if the
+ platform supports Intel TXT and, if so, executes the GETSEC[SENTER]
+ processor instruction that initiates the dynamic root of trust.
+ - If tboot determines that the system does not support Intel TXT
+ or is not configured correctly (e.g. the SINIT AC Module was
+ incorrect), it will directly launch the kernel with no changes
+ to any state.
+ - Tboot will output various information about its progress to the
+ terminal, serial port, and/or an in-memory log; the output
+ locations can be configured with a command line switch.
+o The GETSEC[SENTER] instruction will return control to tboot and
+ tboot then verifies certain aspects of the environment (e.g. TPM NV
+ lock, e820 table does not have invalid entries, etc.).
+o It will wake the APs from the special sleep state the GETSEC[SENTER]
+ instruction had put them in and place them into a wait-for-SIPI
+ state.
+ - Because the processors will not respond to an INIT or SIPI when
+ in the TXT environment, it is necessary to create a small VT-x
+ guest for the APs. When they run in this guest, they will
+ simply wait for the INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence, which will cause
+ VMEXITs, and then disable VT and jump to the SIPI vector. This
+ approach seemed like a better choice than having to insert
+ special code into the kernel's MP wakeup sequence.
+o Tboot then applies an (optional) user-defined launch policy to
+ verify the kernel and initrd.
+ - This policy is rooted in TPM NV and is described in the tboot
+ project. The tboot project also contains code for tools to
+ create and provision the policy.
+ - Policies are completely under user control and if not present
+ then any kernel will be launched.
+ - Policy action is flexible and can include halting on failures
+ or simply logging them and continuing.
+o Tboot adjusts the e820 table provided by the bootloader to reserve
+ its own location in memory as well as to reserve certain other
+ TXT-related regions.
+o As part of it's launch, tboot DMA protects all of RAM (using the
+ VT-d PMRs). Thus, the kernel must be booted with 'intel_iommu=on'
+ in order to remove this blanket protection and use VT-d's
+ page-level protection.
+o Tboot will populate a shared page with some data about itself and
+ pass this to the Linux kernel as it transfers control.
+ - The location of the shared page is passed via the boot_params
+ struct as a physical address.
+o The kernel will look for the tboot shared page address and, if it
+ exists, map it.
+o As one of the checks/protections provided by TXT, it makes a copy
+ of the VT-d DMARs in a DMA-protected region of memory and verifies
+ them for correctness. The VT-d code will detect if the kernel was
+ launched with tboot and use this copy instead of the one in the
+ ACPI table.
+o At this point, tboot and TXT are out of the picture until a
+ shutdown (S<n>)
+o In order to put a system into any of the sleep states after a TXT
+ launch, TXT must first be exited. This is to prevent attacks that
+ attempt to crash the system to gain control on reboot and steal
+ data left in memory.
+ - The kernel will perform all of its sleep preparation and
+ populate the shared page with the ACPI data needed to put the
+ platform in the desired sleep state.
+ - Then the kernel jumps into tboot via the vector specified in the
+ shared page.
+ - Tboot will clean up the environment and disable TXT, then use the
+ kernel-provided ACPI information to actually place the platform
+ into the desired sleep state.
+ - In the case of S3, tboot will also register itself as the resume
+ vector. This is necessary because it must re-establish the
+ measured environment upon resume. Once the TXT environment
+ has been restored, it will restore the TPM PCRs and then
+ transfer control back to the kernel's S3 resume vector.
+ In order to preserve system integrity across S3, the kernel
+ provides tboot with a set of memory ranges (kernel
+ code/data/bss, S3 resume code, and AP trampoline) that tboot
+ will calculate a MAC (message authentication code) over and then
+ seal with the TPM. On resume and once the measured environment
+ has been re-established, tboot will re-calculate the MAC and
+ verify it against the sealed value. Tboot's policy determines
+ what happens if the verification fails.
+
+That's pretty much it for TXT support.
+
+
+Configuring the System:
+======================
+
+This code works with 32bit, 32bit PAE, and 64bit (x86_64) kernels.
+
+In BIOS, the user must enable: TPM, TXT, VT-x, VT-d. Not all BIOSes
+allow these to be individually enabled/disabled and the screens in
+which to find them are BIOS-specific.
+
+grub.conf needs to be modified as follows:
+ title Linux 2.6.29-tip w/ tboot
+ root (hd0,0)
+ kernel /tboot.gz logging=serial,vga,memory
+ module /vmlinuz-2.6.29-tip intel_iommu=on ro
+ root=LABEL=/ rhgb console=ttyS0,115200 3
+ module /initrd-2.6.29-tip.img
+ module /Q35_SINIT_17.BIN
+
+The kernel option for enabling Intel TXT support is found under the
+Security top-level menu and is called "Enable Intel(R) Trusted
+Execution Technology (TXT)". It is marked as EXPERIMENTAL and
+depends on the generic x86 support (to allow maximum flexibility in
+kernel build options), since the tboot code will detect whether the
+platform actually supports Intel TXT and thus whether any of the
+kernel code is executed.
+
+The Q35_SINIT_17.BIN file is what Intel TXT refers to as an
+Authenticated Code Module. It is specific to the chipset in the
+system and can also be found on the Trusted Boot site. It is an
+(unencrypted) module signed by Intel that is used as part of the
+DRTM process to verify and configure the system. It is signed
+because it operates at a higher privilege level in the system than
+any other macrocode and its correct operation is critical to the
+establishment of the DRTM. The process for determining the correct
+SINIT ACM for a system is documented in the SINIT-guide.txt file
+that is on the tboot SourceForge site under the SINIT ACM downloads.

+4. Event formats
+================
+
+Each trace event has a 'format' file associated with it that contains
+a description of each field in a logged event. This information can
+be used to parse the binary trace stream, and is also the place to
+find the field names that can be used in event filters (see section 5).
+
+It also displays the format string that will be used to print the
+event in text mode, along with the event name and ID used for
+profiling.
+
+Every event has a set of 'common' fields associated with it; these are
+the fields prefixed with 'common_'. The other fields vary between
+events and correspond to the fields defined in the TRACE_EVENT
+definition for that event.
+
+Each field in the format has the form:
+
+ field:field-type field-name; offset:N; size:N;
+
+where offset is the offset of the field in the trace record and size
+is the size of the data item, in bytes.
+
+For example, here's the information displayed for the 'sched_wakeup'
+event:
+
+# cat /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/format
+
+name: sched_wakeup
+ID: 60
+format:
+ field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;
+ field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1;
+ field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;
+ field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4;
+ field:int common_tgid; offset:8; size:4;
+
+ field:char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16;
+ field:pid_t pid; offset:28; size:4;
+ field:int prio; offset:32; size:4;
+ field:int success; offset:36; size:4;
+ field:int cpu; offset:40; size:4;
+
+print fmt: "task %s:%d [%d] success=%d [%03d]", REC->comm, REC->pid,
+ REC->prio, REC->success, REC->cpu
+
+This event contains 10 fields, the first 5 common and the remaining 5
+event-specific. All the fields for this event are numeric, except for
+'comm' which is a string, a distinction important for event filtering.
+
+5. Event filtering
+==================
+
+Trace events can be filtered in the kernel by associating boolean
+'filter expressions' with them. As soon as an event is logged into
+the trace buffer, its fields are checked against the filter expression
+associated with that event type. An event with field values that
+'match' the filter will appear in the trace output, and an event whose
+values don't match will be discarded. An event with no filter
+associated with it matches everything, and is the default when no
+filter has been set for an event.
+
+5.1 Expression syntax
+---------------------
+
+A filter expression consists of one or more 'predicates' that can be
+combined using the logical operators '&&' and '||'. A predicate is
+simply a clause that compares the value of a field contained within a
+logged event with a constant value and returns either 0 or 1 depending
+on whether the field value matched (1) or didn't match (0):
+
+ field-name relational-operator value
+
+Parentheses can be used to provide arbitrary logical groupings and
+double-quotes can be used to prevent the shell from interpreting
+operators as shell metacharacters.
+
+The field-names available for use in filters can be found in the
+'format' files for trace events (see section 4).
+
+The relational-operators depend on the type of the field being tested:
+
+The operators available for numeric fields are:
+
+==, !=, <, <=, >, >=
+
+And for string fields they are:
+
+==, !=
+
+Currently, only exact string matches are supported.
+
+Currently, the maximum number of predicates in a filter is 16.
+
+5.2 Setting filters
+-------------------
+
+A filter for an individual event is set by writing a filter expression
+to the 'filter' file for the given event.
+
+For example:
+
+# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup
+# echo "common_preempt_count > 4" > filter
+
+A slightly more involved example:
+
+# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_signal_send
+# echo "((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || sig == 17) && comm != bash" > filter
+
+If there is an error in the expression, you'll get an 'Invalid
+argument' error when setting it, and the erroneous string along with
+an error message can be seen by looking at the filter e.g.:
+
+# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_signal_send
+# echo "((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || dsig == 17) && comm != bash" > filter
+-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
+# cat filter
+((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || dsig == 17) && comm != bash
+^
+parse_error: Field not found
+
+Currently the caret ('^') for an error always appears at the beginning of
+the filter string; the error message should still be useful though
+even without more accurate position info.
+
+5.3 Clearing filters
+--------------------
+
+To clear the filter for an event, write a '0' to the event's filter
+file.
+
+To clear the filters for all events in a subsystem, write a '0' to the
+subsystem's filter file.
+
+5.3 Subsystem filters
+---------------------
+
+For convenience, filters for every event in a subsystem can be set or
+cleared as a group by writing a filter expression into the filter file
+at the root of the subsytem. Note however, that if a filter for any
+event within the subsystem lacks a field specified in the subsystem
+filter, or if the filter can't be applied for any other reason, the
+filter for that event will retain its previous setting. This can
+result in an unintended mixture of filters which could lead to

+ function tracer guts
+ ====================
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Here we will cover the architecture pieces that the common function tracing
+code relies on for proper functioning. Things are broken down into increasing
+complexity so that you can start simple and at least get basic functionality.
+
+Note that this focuses on architecture implementation details only. If you
+want more explanation of a feature in terms of common code, review the common
+ftrace.txt file.
+
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+Ftrace relies on these features being implemented:
+ STACKTRACE_SUPPORT - implement save_stack_trace()
+ TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT - implement include/asm/irqflags.h
+
+
+HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACER
+--------------------
+
+You will need to implement the mcount and the ftrace_stub functions.
+
+The exact mcount symbol name will depend on your toolchain. Some call it
+"mcount", "_mcount", or even "__mcount". You can probably figure it out by
+running something like:
+ $ echo 'main(){}' | gcc -x c -S -o - - -pg | grep mcount
+ call mcount
+We'll make the assumption below that the symbol is "mcount" just to keep things
+nice and simple in the examples.
+
+Keep in mind that the ABI that is in effect inside of the mcount function is
+*highly* architecture/toolchain specific. We cannot help you in this regard,
+sorry. Dig up some old documentation and/or find someone more familiar than
+you to bang ideas off of. Typically, register usage (argument/scratch/etc...)
+is a major issue at this point, especially in relation to the location of the
+mcount call (before/after function prologue). You might also want to look at
+how glibc has implemented the mcount function for your architecture. It might
+be (semi-)relevant.
+
+The mcount function should check the function pointer ftrace_trace_function
+to see if it is set to ftrace_stub. If it is, there is nothing for you to do,
+so return immediately. If it isn't, then call that function in the same way
+the mcount function normally calls __mcount_internal -- the first argument is
+the "frompc" while the second argument is the "selfpc" (adjusted to remove the
+size of the mcount call that is embedded in the function).
+
+For example, if the function foo() calls bar(), when the bar() function calls
+mcount(), the arguments mcount() will pass to the tracer are:
+ "frompc" - the address bar() will use to return to foo()
+ "selfpc" - the address bar() (with _mcount() size adjustment)
+
+Also keep in mind that this mcount function will be called *a lot*, so
+optimizing for the default case of no tracer will help the smooth running of
+your system when tracing is disabled. So the start of the mcount function is
+typically the bare min with checking things before returning. That also means
+the code flow should usually kept linear (i.e. no branching in the nop case).
+This is of course an optimization and not a hard requirement.
+
+Here is some pseudo code that should help (these functions should actually be
+implemented in assembly):
+
+void ftrace_stub(void)
+{
+ return;
+}
+
+void mcount(void)
+{
+ /* save any bare state needed in order to do initial checking */
+
+ extern void (*ftrace_trace_function)(unsigned long, unsigned long);
+ if (ftrace_trace_function != ftrace_stub)
+ goto do_trace;
+
+ /* restore any bare state */
+
+ return;
+
+do_trace:
+
+ /* save all state needed by the ABI (see paragraph above) */
+
+ unsigned long frompc = ...;
+ unsigned long selfpc = <return address> - MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE;
+ ftrace_trace_function(frompc, selfpc);
+
+ /* restore all state needed by the ABI */
+}
+
+Don't forget to export mcount for modules !
+extern void mcount(void);
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(mcount);
+
+
+HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST
+-------------------------------
+
+This is an optional optimization for the normal case when tracing is turned off
+in the system. If you do not enable this Kconfig option, the common ftrace
+code will take care of doing the checking for you.
+
+To support this feature, you only need to check the function_trace_stop
+variable in the mcount function. If it is non-zero, there is no tracing to be
+done at all, so you can return.
+
+This additional pseudo code would simply be:
+void mcount(void)
+{
+ /* save any bare state needed in order to do initial checking */
+
++ if (function_trace_stop)
++ return;
+
+ extern void (*ftrace_trace_function)(unsigned long, unsigned long);
+ if (ftrace_trace_function != ftrace_stub)
+...
+
+
+HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER
+--------------------------
+
+Deep breath ... time to do some real work. Here you will need to update the
+mcount function to check ftrace graph function pointers, as well as implement
+some functions to save (hijack) and restore the return address.
+
+The mcount function should check the function pointers ftrace_graph_return
+(compare to ftrace_stub) and ftrace_graph_entry (compare to
+ftrace_graph_entry_stub). If either of those are not set to the relevant stub
+function, call the arch-specific function ftrace_graph_caller which in turn
+calls the arch-specific function prepare_ftrace_return. Neither of these
+function names are strictly required, but you should use them anyways to stay
+consistent across the architecture ports -- easier to compare & contrast
+things.
+
+The arguments to prepare_ftrace_return are slightly different than what are
+passed to ftrace_trace_function. The second argument "selfpc" is the same,
+but the first argument should be a pointer to the "frompc". Typically this is
+located on the stack. This allows the function to hijack the return address
+temporarily to have it point to the arch-specific function return_to_handler.
+That function will simply call the common ftrace_return_to_handler function and
+that will return the original return address with which, you can return to the
+original call site.
+
+Here is the updated mcount pseudo code:
+void mcount(void)
+{
+...
+ if (ftrace_trace_function != ftrace_stub)
+ goto do_trace;
+
++#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER
++ extern void (*ftrace_graph_return)(...);
++ extern void (*ftrace_graph_entry)(...);
++ if (ftrace_graph_return != ftrace_stub ||
++ ftrace_graph_entry != ftrace_graph_entry_stub)
++ ftrace_graph_caller();
++#endif
+
+ /* restore any bare state */
+...
+
+Here is the pseudo code for the new ftrace_graph_caller assembly function:
+#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER
+void ftrace_graph_caller(void)
+{
+ /* save all state needed by the ABI */
+
+ unsigned long *frompc = &...;
+ unsigned long selfpc = <return address> - MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE;
+ prepare_ftrace_return(frompc, selfpc);
+
+ /* restore all state needed by the ABI */
+}
+#endif
+
+For information on how to implement prepare_ftrace_return(), simply look at
+the x86 version. The only architecture-specific piece in it is the setup of
+the fault recovery table (the asm(...) code). The rest should be the same
+across architectures.
+
+Here is the pseudo code for the new return_to_handler assembly function. Note
+that the ABI that applies here is different from what applies to the mcount
+code. Since you are returning from a function (after the epilogue), you might
+be able to skimp on things saved/restored (usually just registers used to pass
+return values).
+
+#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER
+void return_to_handler(void)
+{
+ /* save all state needed by the ABI (see paragraph above) */
+
+ void (*original_return_point)(void) = ftrace_return_to_handler();
+
+ /* restore all state needed by the ABI */
+
+ /* this is usually either a return or a jump */
+ original_return_point();
+}

+VGA Arbiter
+===========
+
+Graphic devices are accessed through ranges in I/O or memory space. While most
+modern devices allow relocation of such ranges, some "Legacy" VGA devices
+implemented on PCI will typically have the same "hard-decoded" addresses as
+they did on ISA. For more details see "PCI Bus Binding to IEEE Std 1275-1994
+Standard for Boot (Initialization Configuration) Firmware Revision 2.1"
+Section 7, Legacy Devices.
+
+The Resource Access Control (RAC) module inside the X server [0] existed for
+the legacy VGA arbitration task (besides other bus management tasks) when more
+than one legacy device co-exists on the same machine. But the problem happens
+when these devices are trying to be accessed by different userspace clients
+(e.g. two server in parallel). Their address assignments conflict. Moreover,
+ideally, being an userspace application, it is not the role of the the X
+server to control bus resources. Therefore an arbitration scheme outside of
+the X server is needed to control the sharing of these resources. This
+document introduces the operation of the VGA arbiter implemented for Linux
+kernel.

+
+I. Details and Theory of Operation
+==================================
+
+I.1 vgaarb
+----------
+
+The vgaarb is a module of the Linux Kernel. When it is initially loaded, it
+scans all PCI devices and adds the VGA ones inside the arbitration. The
+arbiter then enables/disables the decoding on different devices of the VGA
+legacy instructions. Device which do not want/need to use the arbiter may
+explicitly tell it by calling vga_set_legacy_decoding().
+
+The kernel exports a char device interface (/dev/vga_arbiter) to the clients,
+which has the following semantics:
+
+ open : open user instance of the arbiter. By default, it's attached to
+ the default VGA device of the system.
+
+ close : close user instance. Release locks made by the user
+
+ read : return a string indicating the status of the target like:
+
+ "<card_ID>,decodes=<io_state>,owns=<io_state>,locks=<io_state> (ic,mc)"
+
+ An IO state string is of the form {io,mem,io+mem,none}, mc and
+ ic are respectively mem and io lock counts (for debugging/
+ diagnostic only). "decodes" indicate what the card currently
+ decodes, "owns" indicates what is currently enabled on it, and
+ "locks" indicates what is locked by this card. If the card is
+ unplugged, we get "invalid" then for card_ID and an -ENODEV
+ error is returned for any command until a new card is targeted.
+
+
+ write : write a command to the arbiter. List of commands:
+
+ target <card_ID> : switch target to card <card_ID> (see below)
+ lock <io_state> : acquires locks on target ("none" is an invalid io_state)
+ trylock <io_state> : non-blocking acquire locks on target (returns EBUSY if
+ unsuccessful)
+ unlock <io_state> : release locks on target
+ unlock all : release all locks on target held by this user (not
+ implemented yet)
+ decodes <io_state> : set the legacy decoding attributes for the card
+
+ poll : event if something changes on any card (not just the
+ target)
+
+ card_ID is of the form "PCI:domain:bus:dev.fn". It can be set to "default"
+ to go back to the system default card (TODO: not implemented yet). Currently,
+ only PCI is supported as a prefix, but the userland API may support other bus
+ types in the future, even if the current kernel implementation doesn't.
+
+Note about locks:
+
+The driver keeps track of which user has which locks on which card. It
+supports stacking, like the kernel one. This complexifies the implementation
+a bit, but makes the arbiter more tolerant to user space problems and able
+to properly cleanup in all cases when a process dies.
+Currently, a max of 16 cards can have locks simultaneously issued from
+user space for a given user (file descriptor instance) of the arbiter.
+
+In the case of devices hot-{un,}plugged, there is a hook - pci_notify() - to
+notify them being added/removed in the system and automatically added/removed
+in the arbiter.
+
+There's also a in-kernel API of the arbiter in the case of DRM, vgacon and
+others which may use the arbiter.
+
+
+I.2 libpciaccess
+----------------
+
+To use the vga arbiter char device it was implemented an API inside the
+libpciaccess library. One fieldd was added to struct pci_device (each device
+on the system):
+
+ /* the type of resource decoded by the device */
+ int vgaarb_rsrc;
+
+Besides it, in pci_system were added:
+
+ int vgaarb_fd;
+ int vga_count;
+ struct pci_device *vga_target;
+ struct pci_device *vga_default_dev;
+
+
+The vga_count is usually need to keep informed how many cards are being
+arbitrated, so for instance if there's only one then it can totally escape the
+scheme.
+
+
+These functions below acquire VGA resources for the given card and mark those
+resources as locked. If the resources requested are "normal" (and not legacy)
+resources, the arbiter will first check whether the card is doing legacy
+decoding for that type of resource. If yes, the lock is "converted" into a
+legacy resource lock. The arbiter will first look for all VGA cards that
+might conflict and disable their IOs and/or Memory access, including VGA
+forwarding on P2P bridges if necessary, so that the requested resources can
+be used. Then, the card is marked as locking these resources and the IO and/or
+Memory access is enabled on the card (including VGA forwarding on parent
+P2P bridges if any). In the case of vga_arb_lock(), the function will block
+if some conflicting card is already locking one of the required resources (or
+any resource on a different bus segment, since P2P bridges don't differentiate
+VGA memory and IO afaik). If the card already owns the resources, the function
+succeeds. vga_arb_trylock() will return (-EBUSY) instead of blocking. Nested
+calls are supported (a per-resource counter is maintained).
+
+
+Set the target device of this client.
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_set_target (struct pci_device *dev);
+
+
+For instance, in x86 if two devices on the same bus want to lock different
+resources, both will succeed (lock). If devices are in different buses and
+trying to lock different resources, only the first who tried succeeds.
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_lock (void);
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_trylock (void);
+
+Unlock resources of device.
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_unlock (void);
+
+Indicates to the arbiter if the card decodes legacy VGA IOs, legacy VGA
+Memory, both, or none. All cards default to both, the card driver (fbdev for
+example) should tell the arbiter if it has disabled legacy decoding, so the
+card can be left out of the arbitration process (and can be safe to take
+interrupts at any time.
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_decodes (int new_vgaarb_rsrc);
+
+Connects to the arbiter device, allocates the struct
+ int pci_device_vgaarb_init (void);
+
+Close the connection
+ void pci_device_vgaarb_fini (void);
+
+
+I.3 xf86VGAArbiter (X server implementation)
+--------------------------------------------
+
+(TODO)
+
+X server basically wraps all the functions that touch VGA registers somehow.
+
+
+II. Credits
+===========
+
+Benjamin Herrenschmidt (IBM?) started this work when he discussed such design
+with the Xorg community in 2005 [1, 2]. In the end of 2007, Paulo Zanoni and
+Tiago Vignatti (both of C3SL/Federal University of Paranį) proceeded his work
+enhancing the kernel code to adapt as a kernel module and also did the
+implementation of the user space side [3]. Now (2009) Tiago Vignatti and Dave
+Airlie finally put this work in shape and queued to Jesse Barnes' PCI tree.

+Driver for I2C radios for the Silicon Labs Si4713 FM Radio Transmitters
+
+Copyright (c) 2009 Nokia Corporation
+Contact: Eduardo Valentin <eduardo.valentin@nokia.com>
+
+
+Information about the Device
+============================
+This chip is a Silicon Labs product. It is a I2C device, currently on 0x63 address.
+Basically, it has transmission and signal noise level measurement features.
+
+The Si4713 integrates transmit functions for FM broadcast stereo transmission.
+The chip also allows integrated receive power scanning to identify low signal
+power FM channels.
+
+The chip is programmed using commands and responses. There are also several
+properties which can change the behavior of this chip.
+
+Users must comply with local regulations on radio frequency (RF) transmission.
+
+Device driver description
+=========================
+There are two modules to handle this device. One is a I2C device driver
+and the other is a platform driver.
+
+The I2C device driver exports a v4l2-subdev interface to the kernel.
+All properties can also be accessed by v4l2 extended controls interface, by
+using the v4l2-subdev calls (g_ext_ctrls, s_ext_ctrls).
+
+The platform device driver exports a v4l2 radio device interface to user land.
+So, it uses the I2C device driver as a sub device in order to send the user
+commands to the actual device. Basically it is a wrapper to the I2C device driver.
+
+Applications can use v4l2 radio API to specify frequency of operation, mute state,
+etc. But mostly of its properties will be present in the extended controls.
+
+When the v4l2 mute property is set to 1 (true), the driver will turn the chip off.
+
+Properties description
+======================
+
+The properties can be accessed using v4l2 extended controls.
+Here is an output from v4l2-ctl util:

+/ #
+
+Here is a summary of them:
+
+* Pilot is an audible tone sent by the device.
+
+pilot_frequency - Configures the frequency of the stereo pilot tone.
+pilot_deviation - Configures pilot tone frequency deviation level.
+pilot_enabled - Enables or disables the pilot tone feature.
+
+* The si4713 device is capable of applying audio compression to the transmitted signal.
+
+acomp_enabled - Enables or disables the audio dynamic range control feature.
+acomp_gain - Sets the gain for audio dynamic range control.
+acomp_threshold - Sets the threshold level for audio dynamic range control.
+acomp_attack_time - Sets the attack time for audio dynamic range control.
+acomp_release_time - Sets the release time for audio dynamic range control.
+
+* Limiter setups audio deviation limiter feature. Once a over deviation occurs,
+it is possible to adjust the front-end gain of the audio input and always
+prevent over deviation.
+
+limiter_enabled - Enables or disables the limiter feature.
+limiter_deviation - Configures audio frequency deviation level.
+limiter_release_time - Sets the limiter release time.
+
+* Tuning power
+
+power_level - Sets the output power level for signal transmission.
+antenna_capacitor - This selects the value of antenna tuning capacitor manually
+or automatically if set to zero.
+
+* RDS related
+
+rds_ps_name - Sets the RDS ps name field for transmission.
+rds_radio_text - Sets the RDS radio text for transmission.
+rds_pi - Sets the RDS PI field for transmission.
+rds_pty - Sets the RDS PTY field for transmission.
+
+* Region related
+
+preemphasis - sets the preemphasis to be applied for transmission.
+
+RNL
+===
+
+This device also has an interface to measure received noise level. To do that, you should
+ioctl the device node. Here is an code of example:
+
+int main (int argc, char *argv[])
+{
+ struct si4713_rnl rnl;
+ int fd = open("/dev/radio0", O_RDWR);
+ int rval;
+
+ if (argc < 2)
+ return -EINVAL;
+
+ if (fd < 0)
+ return fd;
+
+ sscanf(argv[1], "%d", &rnl.frequency);
+
+ rval = ioctl(fd, SI4713_IOC_MEASURE_RNL, &rnl);
+ if (rval < 0)
+ return rval;
+
+ printf("received noise level: %d\n", rnl.rnl);
+
+ close(fd);
+}
+
+The struct si4713_rnl and SI4713_IOC_MEASURE_RNL are defined under
+include/media/si4713.h.
+
+Stereo/Mono and RDS subchannels
+===============================
+
+The device can also be configured using the available sub channels for
+transmission. To do that use S/G_MODULATOR ioctl and configure txsubchans properly.
+Refer to v4l2-spec for proper use of this ioctl.
+
+Testing
+=======
+Testing is usually done with v4l2-ctl utility for managing FM tuner cards.
+The tool can be found in v4l-dvb repository under v4l2-apps/util directory.
+
+Example for setting rds ps name:
+# v4l2-ctl -d /dev/radio0 --set-ctrl=rds_ps_name="Dummy"
