This driver allows rpmsg instances to expose access to rpmsg endpoints
to user space processes. It provides a control interface, allowing
userspace to export endpoints and an endpoint interface for each exposed
endpoint.
The implementation is based on prior art by Texas Instrument, Google,
PetaLogix and was derived from a FreeRTOS performance statistics driver
written by Michal Simek.
The control interface provides a "create endpoint" ioctl, which is fed a
name, source and destination address. The three values are used to
create the endpoint, in a backend-specific way, and a rpmsg endpoint
device is created - with the three parameters are available in sysfs for
udev usage.
E.g. to create an endpoint device for one of the Qualcomm SMD channel
related to DIAG one would issue:
struct rpmsg_endpoint_info info = { "DIAG_CNTL", 0, 0 };
int fd = open("/dev/rpmsg_ctrl0", O_RDWR);
ioctl(fd, RPMSG_CREATE_EPT_IOCTL, &info);
Each created endpoint device shows up as an individual character device
in /dev, allowing permission to be controlled on a per-endpoint basis.
The rpmsg endpoint will be created and destroyed following the opening
and closing of the endpoint device, allowing rpmsg backends to open and
close the physical channel, if supported by the wire protocol.

- The guide currently says to pad the structure to a multiple of
64-bits. This is not necessary in cases where the structure contains
no 64-bit types. Clarify this concept to avoid unnecessary padding.
- When using __u64 to hold user pointers, blindly trying to do a cast to
a void __user * may generate a warning on 32-bit systems about a cast
from an integer to a pointer of different size. There is a macro to
deal with this which hides an ugly double cast. Add a reference to
this macro.

The header file "include/linux/nilfs2_fs.h" is composed of parts for
ioctl and disk format, and both are intended to be shared with user
space programs.
This moves them to the uapi directory "include/uapi/linux" splitting the
file to "nilfs2_api.h" and "nilfs2_ondisk.h". The following minor
changes are accompanied by this migration:
- nilfs_direct_node struct in nilfs2/direct.h is converged to
nilfs2_ondisk.h because it's an on-disk structure.
- inline functions nilfs_rec_len_from_disk() and
nilfs_rec_len_to_disk() are moved to nilfs2/dir.c.

enabled and disabled. The time bit allows selection of address reporting
format. If the time bit is disabled the response is in logical block
address(CDROM_LBA) format, represented as a 32-bit integer with ms-byte

Open-channel SSDs are devices that share responsibilities with the host
in order to implement and maintain features that typical SSDs keep
strictly in firmware. These include (i) the Flash Translation Layer
(FTL), (ii) bad block management, and (iii) hardware units such as the
flash controller, the interface controller, and large amounts of flash
chips. In this way, Open-channels SSDs exposes direct access to their
physical flash storage, while keeping a subset of the internal features
of SSDs.
LightNVM is a specification that gives support to Open-channel SSDs
LightNVM allows the host to manage data placement, garbage collection,
and parallelism. Device specific responsibilities such as bad block
management, FTL extensions to support atomic IOs, or metadata
persistence are still handled by the device.
The implementation of LightNVM consists of two parts: core and
(multiple) targets. The core implements functionality shared across
targets. This is initialization, teardown and statistics. The targets
implement the interface that exposes physical flash to user-space
applications. Examples of such targets include key-value store,
object-store, as well as traditional block devices, which can be
application-specific.

A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System Trace
Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards. Examples of such
devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.
This abstraction provides a unified interface for software trace sources
to send their data over an STM device to a debug host. In order to do
that, such a trace source needs to be assigned a pair of master/channel
identifiers that all the data from this source will be tagged with. The
STP decoder on the debug host side will use these master/channel tags to
distinguish different trace streams from one another inside one STP
stream.
This abstraction provides a configfs-based policy management mechanism
for dynamic allocation of these master/channel pairs based on trace
source-supplied string identifier. It has the flexibility of being
defined at runtime and at the same time (provided that the policy
definition is aligned with the decoding end) consistency.
For userspace trace sources, this abstraction provides write()-based and
mmap()-based (if the underlying stm device allows this) output mechanism.
For kernel-side trace sources, we provide "stm_source" device class that
can be connected to an stm device at run time.

There were previous attempts to "merge" the toshiba SMM module to the
toshiba_acpi one, they were trying to imitate what the old toshiba
module does, however, some models (TOS1900 devices) come with a
"crippled" implementation and do not provide all the "features" a
"genuine" Toshiba BIOS does.
This patch adds a new device called toshiba_acpi, which aim is to
enable userspace to access the SMM on Toshiba laptops via ACPI calls.
Creating a new convenience _IOWR command to access the SCI functions
by opening/closing the SCI internally to avoid buggy BIOS, while at
the same time providing backwards compatibility.
Older programs (and new) who wish to access the SMM on newer models
can do it by pointing their path to /dev/toshiba_acpi (instead of
/dev/toshiba) as the toshiba.h header was modified to reflect these
changes as well as adds all the toshiba_acpi paths and command,
however, it is strongly recommended to use the new IOCTL for any
SCI command to avoid any buggy BIOS.
