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.

What: /sys/power/wakeup_count
Date: July 2010
Contact: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
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>

<blockquote>
<para>$ dmesg |grep lirc_dev</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.

--- 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).

Getting Coccinelle
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The semantic patches included in the kernel use the 'virtual rule'
feature which was introduced in Coccinelle version 0.1.11.
Coccinelle (>=0.2.0) is available through the package manager
of many distributions, e.g. :
- Debian (>=squeeze)
- Fedora (>=13)
- Ubuntu (>=10.04 Lucid Lynx)
- OpenSUSE
- Arch Linux
- NetBSD
- FreeBSD
You can get the latest version released from the Coccinelle homepage at
http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/
Once you have it, run the following command:
./configure
make
as a regular user, and install it with
sudo make install
Using Coccinelle on the Linux kernel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Coccinelle-specific target is defined in the top level
Makefile. This target is named 'coccicheck' and calls the 'coccicheck'
front-end in the 'scripts' directory.
Four modes are defined: report, patch, context, and org. The mode to
use is specified by setting the MODE variable with 'MODE=<mode>'.
'report' generates a list in the following format:
file:line:column-column: message
'patch' proposes a fix, when possible.
'context' highlights lines of interest and their context in a
diff-like style.Lines of interest are indicated with '-'.
'org' generates a report in the Org mode format of Emacs.
Note that not all semantic patches implement all modes.
To make a report for every semantic patch, run the following command:
make coccicheck MODE=report
NB: The 'report' mode is the default one.
To produce patches, run:
make coccicheck MODE=patch
The coccicheck target applies every semantic patch available in the
subdirectories of 'scripts/coccinelle' to the entire Linux kernel.
For each semantic patch, a changelog message is proposed. It gives a
description of the problem being checked by the semantic patch, and
includes a reference to Coccinelle.
As any static code analyzer, Coccinelle produces false
positives. Thus, reports must be carefully checked, and patches
reviewed.
Using Coccinelle with a single semantic patch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The optional make variable COCCI can be used to check a single
semantic patch. In that case, the variable must be initialized with
the name of the semantic patch to apply.
For instance:
make coccicheck COCCI=<my_SP.cocci> MODE=patch
or
make coccicheck COCCI=<my_SP.cocci> MODE=report
Proposing new semantic patches
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New semantic patches can be proposed and submitted by kernel
developers. For sake of clarity, they should be organized in the
subdirectories of 'scripts/coccinelle/'.
Detailed description of the 'report' mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'report' generates a list in the following format:
file:line:column-column: message
Example:
Running
make coccicheck MODE=report COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/err_cast.cocci
will execute the following part of the SmPL script.
<smpl>
@r depends on !context && !patch && (org || report)@
expression x;
position p;

ERR_PTR@p(PTR_ERR(x))
@script:python depends on report@
p << r.p;
x << r.x;
@@
msg="ERR_CAST can be used with %s" % (x)
coccilib.report.print_report(p[0], msg)
</smpl>
This SmPL excerpt generates entries on the standard output, as
illustrated below:
/home/user/linux/crypto/ctr.c:188:9-16: ERR_CAST can be used with alg
/home/user/linux/crypto/authenc.c:619:9-16: ERR_CAST can be used with auth
/home/user/linux/crypto/xts.c:227:9-16: ERR_CAST can be used with alg
Detailed description of the 'patch' mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the 'patch' mode is available, it proposes a fix for each problem
identified.
Example:
Running
make coccicheck MODE=patch COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/err_cast.cocci
will execute the following part of the SmPL script.

Detailed description of the 'context' mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'context' highlights lines of interest and their context
in a diff-like style.
NOTE: The diff-like output generated is NOT an applicable patch. The
intent of the 'context' mode is to highlight the important lines
(annotated with minus, '-') and gives some surrounding context
lines around. This output can be used with the diff mode of
Emacs to review the code.

Linux XFS behaves as if an "osyncisdsync" option is used,
which will make writes to files opened with the O_SYNC flag set

This can result in better performance without compromising

@ -6,31 +6,149 @@ Multi-touch (MT) Protocol
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

relies on a sufficiently rapid update rate.

compatibility driver. The kernel module capidrv.ko must be loaded
explicitly with the command
modprobe capidrv
if needed, and cannot be unloaded again without unloading the driver
first. (These are limitations of capidrv.)
The note about unimodem mode in the preceding section applies here, too.
Most distributions handle loading and unloading of the various CAPI
modules automatically via the command capiinit(1) from the capi4k-utils
package or a similar mechanism. Note that capiinit(1) cannot unload the
Gigaset drivers because it doesn't support more than one module per
driver.
2.4. ISDN4Linux
----------
If the driver is compiled without CAPI support (native ISDN4Linux
variant), it registers the device with the legacy ISDN4Linux subsystem
after loading the module. It can then be used with ISDN4Linux
applications only. Most distributions provide some configuration utility
for setting up that subsystem. Otherwise you can use some HOWTOs like
http://www.linuxhaven.de/dlhp/HOWTO/DE-ISDN-HOWTO-5.html
2.5. Unimodem mode
-------------
This is needed for some devices [e.g. SX100] as they have problems with
the "normal" commands.
If you have installed the command line tool gigacontr, you can enter
unimodem mode using
gigacontr --mode unimodem
You can switch back using
gigacontr --mode isdn
You can also put the driver directly into Unimodem mode when it's loaded,
by passing the module parameter startmode=0 to the hardware specific
module, e.g.
modprobe usb_gigaset startmode=0
or by adding a line like
options usb_gigaset startmode=0
to an appropriate module configuration file, like /etc/modprobe.d/gigaset
or /etc/modprobe.conf.local.

2.7. Dialing Numbers
---------------
The called party number provided by an application for dialing out must
be a public network number according to the local dialing plan, without
any dial prefix for getting an outside line.
Internal calls can be made by providing an internal extension number
prefixed with "**" (two asterisks) as the called party number. So to dial
eg. the first registered DECT handset, give "**11" as the called party
number. Dialing "***" (three asterisks) calls all extensions
simultaneously (global call).
This holds for both CAPI 2.0 and ISDN4Linux applications. Unimodem mode
does not support internal calls.

that you want to build a module in the same way as above; however,
kbuild needs to know which object files you want to build your
module from, so you have to tell it by setting a $(<module_name>-y)
variable.
Example:
#drivers/isdn/i4l/Makefile
obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN) += isdn.o
isdn-objs := isdn_net_lib.o isdn_v110.o isdn_common.o
obj-$(CONFIG_ISDN_I4L) += isdn.o

In this example, the module name will be isdn.o. Kbuild will
compile the objects listed in $(isdn-objs) and then run
compile the objects listed in $(isdn-y) and then run
"$(LD) -r" on the list of these files to generate isdn.o.
Kbuild recognises objects used for composite objects by the suffix
-objs, and the suffix -y. This allows the Makefiles to use
the value of a CONFIG_ symbol to determine if an object is part
of a composite object.
Due to kbuild recognizing $(<module_name>-y) for composite objects,
you can use the value of a CONFIG_ symbol to optionally include an
object file as part of a composite object.
Example:
#fs/ext2/Makefile
obj-$(CONFIG_EXT2_FS) += ext2.o
ext2-y := balloc.o bitmap.o
ext2-$(CONFIG_EXT2_FS_XATTR) += xattr.o

In this example, xattr.o is only part of the composite object
ext2.o if $(CONFIG_EXT2_FS_XATTR) evaluates to 'y'.
In this example, xattr.o, xattr_user.o and xattr_trusted.o are only
part of the composite object ext2.o if $(CONFIG_EXT2_FS_XATTR)
