What: /proc/<pid>/oom_adj
When: August 2012
Why: /proc/<pid>/oom_adj allows userspace to influence the oom killer's
badness heuristic used to determine which task to kill when the kernel
is out of memory.
The badness heuristic has since been rewritten since the introduction of
this tunable such that its meaning is deprecated. The value was
implemented as a bitshift on a score generated by the badness()
function that did not have any precise units of measure. With the
rewrite, the score is given as a proportion of available memory to the
task allocating pages, so using a bitshift which grows the score
exponentially is, thus, impossible to tune with fine granularity.
A much more powerful interface, /proc/<pid>/oom_score_adj, was
introduced with the oom killer rewrite that allows users to increase or
decrease the badness() score linearly. This interface will replace
/proc/<pid>/oom_adj.
A warning will be emitted to the kernel log if an application uses this
deprecated interface. After it is printed once, future warnings will be
suppressed until the kernel is rebooted.

What: dv1394 (a.k.a. "OHCI-DV I/O support" for FireWire)
Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
/dev/dv1394/* were character device files, one for each FireWire
controller and for NTSC and PAL respectively, from which DV data
could be received by read() or transmitted by write(). A few
ioctl()s allowed limited control.
This special-purpose interface has been superseded by libraw1394 +

What: raw1394 (a.k.a. "Raw IEEE1394 I/O support" for FireWire)
Date: May 2010 (scheduled), finally removed in kernel v2.6.37
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
/dev/raw1394 was a character device file that allowed low-level
access to FireWire buses. Its major drawbacks were its inability
to implement sensible device security policies, and its low level
of abstraction that required userspace clients do duplicate much
of the kernel's ieee1394 core functionality.

What: legacy isochronous ABI of raw1394 (1st generation iso ABI)
Date: June 2007 (scheduled), removed in kernel v2.6.23
Contact: linux1394-devel@lists.sourceforge.net
Description:
The two request types RAW1394_REQ_ISO_SEND, RAW1394_REQ_ISO_LISTEN have
been deprecated for quite some time. They are very inefficient as they
come with high interrupt load and several layers of callbacks for each
packet. Because of these deficiencies, the video1394 and dv1394 drivers
and the 3rd-generation isochronous ABI in raw1394 (rawiso) were created.
Users:

raw1394_start_iso_write, raw1394_start_iso_rcv, raw1394_stop_iso_rcv

Description:
Provide a place in sysfs for storing the ATA topology of the system. This allows
retrieving various information about ATA objects.

For each port, a directory ataX is created where X is the ata_port_id of
the port. The device parent is the ata host device.
idle_irq (read)
Number of IRQ received by the port while idle [some ata HBA only].
nr_pmp_links (read)
If a SATA Port Multiplier (PM) is connected, number of link behind it.
Files under /sys/class/ata_link
-------------------------------
Behind each port, there is a ata_link. If there is a SATA PM in the
topology, 15 ata_link objects are created.
If a link is behind a port, the directory name is linkX, where X is
ata_port_id of the port.

- X is ata_port_id of the port where the device is connected,
- Y the port of the PM if any, and
- Z the device id: for PATA, there is usually 2 devices [0,1],

drivers do not want their device to suspend as soon as it
becomes idle at run time; they want the device to remain
inactive for a certain minimum period of time first. That
period is called the autosuspend delay. Negative values will
prevent the device from being suspended at run time (similar
to writing "on" to the power/control attribute). Values >=
1000 will cause the autosuspend timer expiration to be rounded
up to the nearest second.
Not all drivers support this attribute. If it isn't supported,
attempts to read or write it will yield I/O errors.

dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'
If you do not get any matches (or they appear to be false
positives), it is possible that the last PM event point
referred to a device created by a loadable kernel module. In
this case cat /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match (see below) after
your system is started up and the kernel modules are loaded.
CAUTION: Using it will cause your machine's real-time (CMOS)
clock to be set to a random invalid time after a resume.

Description:
The /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match file contains the name of the
device associated with the last PM event point saved in the RTC
across reboots when pm_trace has been used. More precisely it
contains the list of current devices (including those
registered by loadable kernel modules since boot) which match
the device hash in the RTC at boot, with a newline after each
one.
The advantage of this file over the hash matches printed to the
kernel log (see /sys/power/pm_trace), is that it includes
devices created after boot by loadable kernel modules.
Due to the small hash size necessary to fit in the RTC, it is
possible that more than one device matches the hash, in which
case further investigation is required to determine which
device is causing the problem. Note that genuine RTC clock
values (such as when pm_trace has not been used), can still
match a device and output it's name here.

2) ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN
Architectures must ensure that kmalloc'ed buffer is
DMA-safe. Drivers and subsystems depend on it. If an architecture
isn't fully DMA-coherent (i.e. hardware doesn't ensure that data in
the CPU cache is identical to data in main memory),
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN must be set so that the memory allocator
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN must be set so that the memory allocator
makes sure that kmalloc'ed buffer doesn't share a cache line with
the others. See arch/arm/include/asm/cache.h as an example.
Note that ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is about DMA memory alignment
Note that ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is about DMA memory alignment
constraints. You don't need to worry about the architecture data
alignment constraints (e.g. the alignment constraints about 64-bit
objects).
3) Supporting multiple types of IOMMUs
If your architecture needs to support multiple types of IOMMUs, you
can use include/linux/asm-generic/dma-mapping-common.h. It's a
library to support the DMA API with multiple types of IOMMUs. Lots
of architectures (x86, powerpc, sh, alpha, ia64, microblaze and
sparc) use it. Choose one to see how it can be used. If you need to
support multiple types of IOMMUs in a single system, the example of
x86 or powerpc helps.
