+Description:
+ Various files for managing Cable Based Association of

+
+ The sequence of operations should be:
+
+ 1. Device is plugged in.
+
+ 2. The connection manager (CM) sees a device with CBA capability.
+ (the wusb_chid etc. files in /sys/devices/blah/OURDEVICE).
+
+ 3. The CM writes the host name, supported band groups,
+ and the CHID (host ID) into the wusb_host_name,
+ wusb_host_band_groups and wusb_chid files. These
+ get sent to the device and the CDID (if any) for
+ this host is requested.
+
+ 4. The CM can verify that the device's supported band
+ groups (wusb_device_band_groups) are compatible
+ with the host.
+
+ 5. The CM reads the wusb_cdid file.
+
+ 6. The CM looks it up its database.
+
+ - If it has a matching CHID,CDID entry, the device
+ has been authorized before and nothing further
+ needs to be done.
+
+ - If the CDID is zero (or the CM doesn't find a
+ matching CDID in its database), the device is
+ assumed to be not known. The CM may associate
+ the host with device by: writing a randomly
+ generated CDID to wusb_cdid and then a random CK
+ to wusb_ck (this uploads the new CC to the
+ device).
+
+ CMD may choose to prompt the user before
+ associating with a new device.
+
+ 7. Device is unplugged.

-Revision 7, 2007-04-19
-Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
-Greg KH <greg@kroah.com>
-
-This is a guide on how to convert I2C chip drivers from Linux 2.4 to
-Linux 2.6. I have been using existing drivers (lm75, lm78) as examples.
-Then I converted a driver myself (lm83) and updated this document.
-Note that this guide is strongly oriented towards hardware monitoring
-drivers. Many points are still valid for other type of drivers, but
-others may be irrelevant.
-
-There are two sets of points below. The first set concerns technical
-changes. The second set concerns coding policy. Both are mandatory.
-
-Although reading this guide will help you porting drivers, I suggest
-you keep an eye on an already ported driver while porting your own
-driver. This will help you a lot understanding what this guide
-exactly means. Choose the chip driver that is the more similar to
-yours for best results.
-
-Technical changes:
-
-* [Driver type] Any driver that was relying on i2c-isa has to be
- converted to a proper isa, platform or pci driver. This is not
- covered by this guide.
-
-* [Includes] Get rid of "version.h" and <linux/i2c-proc.h>.
- Includes typically look like that:
- #include <linux/module.h>
- #include <linux/init.h>
- #include <linux/slab.h>
- #include <linux/jiffies.h>
- #include <linux/i2c.h>
- #include <linux/hwmon.h> /* for hardware monitoring drivers */
- #include <linux/hwmon-sysfs.h>
- #include <linux/hwmon-vid.h> /* if you need VRM support */
- #include <linux/err.h> /* for class registration */
- Please respect this inclusion order. Some extra headers may be
- required for a given driver (e.g. "lm75.h").
-
-* [Addresses] SENSORS_I2C_END becomes I2C_CLIENT_END, ISA addresses
- are no more handled by the i2c core. Address ranges are no more
- supported either, define each individual address separately.
- SENSORS_INSMOD_<n> becomes I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD_<n>.
-
-* [Client data] Get rid of sysctl_id. Try using standard names for
- register values (for example, temp_os becomes temp_max). You're
- still relatively free here, but you *have* to follow the standard
- names for sysfs files (see the Sysctl section below).
-
-* [Function prototypes] The detect functions loses its flags
- parameter. Sysctl (e.g. lm75_temp) and miscellaneous functions
- are off the list of prototypes. This usually leaves five
- prototypes:
- static int lm75_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adapter);
- static int lm75_detect(struct i2c_adapter *adapter, int address,
- int kind);
- static void lm75_init_client(struct i2c_client *client);
- static int lm75_detach_client(struct i2c_client *client);
- static struct lm75_data lm75_update_device(struct device *dev);
-
-* [Sysctl] All sysctl stuff is of course gone (defines, ctl_table
- and functions). Instead, you have to define show and set functions for
- each sysfs file. Only define set for writable values. Take a look at an
- existing 2.6 driver for details (it87 for example). Don't forget
- to define the attributes for each file (this is that step that
- links callback functions). Use the file names specified in
- Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for the individual files. Also
- convert the units these files read and write to the specified ones.
- If you need to add a new type of file, please discuss it on the
- sensors mailing list <lm-sensors@lm-sensors.org> by providing a
- patch to the Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface file.
-
-* [Attach] The attach function should make sure that the adapter's
- class has I2C_CLASS_HWMON (or whatever class is suitable for your
- driver), using the following construct:
- if (!(adapter->class & I2C_CLASS_HWMON))
- return 0;
- Call i2c_probe() instead of i2c_detect().
-
-* [Detect] As mentioned earlier, the flags parameter is gone.
- The type_name and client_name strings are replaced by a single
- name string, which will be filled with a lowercase, short string.
- The labels used for error paths are reduced to the number needed.
- It is advised that the labels are given descriptive names such as
- exit and exit_free. Don't forget to properly set err before
- jumping to error labels. By the way, labels should be left-aligned.
- Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc.
- Use i2c_set_clientdata to set the client data (as opposed to
- a direct access to client->data).
- Use strlcpy instead of strcpy or snprintf to copy the client name.
- Replace the sysctl directory registration by calls to
- device_create_file. Move the driver initialization before any
- sysfs file creation.
- Register the client with the hwmon class (using hwmon_device_register)
- if applicable.
- Drop client->id.
- Drop any 24RF08 corruption prevention you find, as this is now done
- at the i2c-core level, and doing it twice voids it.
- Don't add I2C_CLIENT_ALLOW_USE to client->flags, it's the default now.
-
-* [Init] Limits must not be set by the driver (can be done later in
- user-space). Chip should not be reset default (although a module
- parameter may be used to force it), and initialization should be
- limited to the strictly necessary steps.
-
-* [Detach] Remove the call to i2c_deregister_entry. Do not log an
- error message if i2c_detach_client fails, as i2c-core will now do
- it for you.
- Unregister from the hwmon class if applicable.
-
-* [Update] The function prototype changed, it is now
- passed a device structure, which you have to convert to a client
- using to_i2c_client(dev). The update function should return a
- pointer to the client data.
- Don't access client->data directly, use i2c_get_clientdata(client)
- instead.
- Use time_after() instead of direct jiffies comparison.
-
-* [Interface] Make sure there is a MODULE_LICENSE() line, at the bottom
- of the file (after MODULE_AUTHOR() and MODULE_DESCRIPTION(), in this
- order).
-
-* [Driver] The flags field of the i2c_driver structure is gone.
- I2C_DF_NOTIFY is now the default behavior.
- The i2c_driver structure has a driver member, which is itself a
- structure, those name member should be initialized to a driver name
- string. i2c_driver itself has no name member anymore.
-
-* [Driver model] Instead of shutdown or reboot notifiers, provide a
- shutdown() method in your driver.
-
-* [Power management] Use the driver model suspend() and resume()
- callbacks instead of the obsolete pm_register() calls.
-
-Coding policy:
-
-* [Copyright] Use (C), not (c), for copyright.
-
-* [Debug/log] Get rid of #ifdef DEBUG/#endif constructs whenever you
- can. Calls to printk for debugging purposes are replaced by calls to
- dev_dbg where possible, else to pr_debug. Here is an example of how
- to call it (taken from lm75_detect):
- dev_dbg(&client->dev, "Starting lm75 update\n");
- Replace other printk calls with the dev_info, dev_err or dev_warn
- function, as appropriate.
-
-* [Constants] Constants defines (registers, conversions) should be
- aligned. This greatly improves readability.
- Alignments are achieved by the means of tabs, not spaces. Remember
- that tabs are set to 8 in the Linux kernel code.
-
-* [Layout] Avoid extra empty lines between comments and what they
- comment. Respect the coding style (see Documentation/CodingStyle),
- in particular when it comes to placing curly braces.
-
-* [Comments] Make sure that no comment refers to a file that isn't
- part of the Linux source tree (typically doc/chips/<chip name>),
- and that remaining comments still match the code. Merging comment
- lines when possible is encouraged.

+Initializing the driver
+=======================
+
+When the kernel is booted, or when your foo driver module is inserted,
+you have to do some initializing. Fortunately, just registering the
+driver module is usually enough.
-Most i2c devices can be present on several i2c addresses; for some this
-is determined in hardware (by soldering some chip pins to Vcc or Ground),
-for others this can be changed in software (by writing to specific client
-registers). Some devices are usually on a specific address, but not always;
-and some are even more tricky. So you will probably need to scan several
-i2c addresses for your clients, and do some sort of detection to see
-whether it is actually a device supported by your driver.

+MODULE_AUTHOR("Frodo Looijaard <frodol@dds.nl>"
+MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Driver for Barf Inc. Foo I2C devices");
-To give the user a maximum of possibilities, some default module parameters
-are defined to help determine what addresses are scanned. Several macros
-are defined in i2c.h to help you support them, as well as a generic
-detection algorithm.
-
-You do not have to use this parameter interface; but don't try to use
-function i2c_probe() if you don't.
-
-
-Probing classes (Legacy model)
-------------------------------
-
-All parameters are given as lists of unsigned 16-bit integers. Lists are
-terminated by I2C_CLIENT_END.
-The following lists are used internally:
-
- normal_i2c: filled in by the module writer.
- A list of I2C addresses which should normally be examined.
- probe: insmod parameter.
- A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
- the second is the address. These addresses are also probed, as if they
- were in the 'normal' list.
- ignore: insmod parameter.
- A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
- the second is the I2C address. These addresses are never probed.
- This parameter overrules the 'normal_i2c' list only.
- force: insmod parameter.
- A list of pairs. The first value is a bus number (-1 for any I2C bus),
- the second is the I2C address. A device is blindly assumed to be on
- the given address, no probing is done.
-
-Additionally, kind-specific force lists may optionally be defined if
-the driver supports several chip kinds. They are grouped in a
-NULL-terminated list of pointers named forces, those first element if the
-generic force list mentioned above. Each additional list correspond to an
-insmod parameter of the form force_<kind>.
-
-Fortunately, as a module writer, you just have to define the `normal_i2c'
-parameter. The complete declaration could look like this:
-
- /* Scan 0x4c to 0x4f */
- static const unsigned short normal_i2c[] = { 0x4c, 0x4d, 0x4e, 0x4f,
- I2C_CLIENT_END };
-
- /* Magic definition of all other variables and things */
- I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD;
- /* Or, if your driver supports, say, 2 kind of devices: */
- I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD_2(foo, bar);
-
-If you use the multi-kind form, an enum will be defined for you:
- enum chips { any_chip, foo, bar, ... }
-You can then (and certainly should) use it in the driver code.
-
-Note that you *have* to call the defined variable `normal_i2c',
-without any prefix!
-
-
-Attaching to an adapter (Legacy model)
---------------------------------------
-
-Whenever a new adapter is inserted, or for all adapters if the driver is
-being registered, the callback attach_adapter() is called. Now is the
-time to determine what devices are present on the adapter, and to register
-a client for each of them.
-
-The attach_adapter callback is really easy: we just call the generic
-detection function. This function will scan the bus for us, using the
-information as defined in the lists explained above. If a device is
-detected at a specific address, another callback is called.
-
- int foo_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adapter)
- {
- return i2c_probe(adapter,&addr_data,&foo_detect_client);
- }
-
-Remember, structure `addr_data' is defined by the macros explained above,
-so you do not have to define it yourself.
-
-The i2c_probe function will call the foo_detect_client
-function only for those i2c addresses that actually have a device on
-them (unless a `force' parameter was used). In addition, addresses that
-are already in use (by some other registered client) are skipped.
-
-
-The detect client function (Legacy model)
------------------------------------------
-
-The detect client function is called by i2c_probe. The `kind' parameter
-contains -1 for a probed detection, 0 for a forced detection, or a positive
-number for a forced detection with a chip type forced.
-
-Returning an error different from -ENODEV in a detect function will cause
-the detection to stop: other addresses and adapters won't be scanned.
-This should only be done on fatal or internal errors, such as a memory
-shortage or i2c_attach_client failing.
-
-For now, you can ignore the `flags' parameter. It is there for future use.

+Elantech Touchpad Driver

+
+ Copyright (C) 2007-2008 Arjan Opmeer <arjan@opmeer.net>

+ Extra information for hardware version 1 found and
+ provided by Steve Havelka
+
+ Version 2 (EeePC) hardware support based on patches
+ received from Woody at Xandros and forwarded to me
+ by user StewieGriffin at the eeeuser.com forum

+
+
+
+1. Introduction
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver is aware of two different
+hardware versions unimaginatively called version 1 and version 2. Version 1
+is found in "older" laptops and uses 4 bytes per packet. Version 2 seems to
+be introduced with the EeePC and uses 6 bytes per packet.
+
+The driver tries to support both hardware versions and should be compatible
+with the Xorg Synaptics touchpad driver and its graphical configuration
+utilities.
+
+Additionally the operation of the touchpad can be altered by adjusting the
+contents of some of its internal registers. These registers are represented
+by the driver as sysfs entries under /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio?
+that can be read from and written to.
+
+Currently only the registers for hardware version 1 are somewhat understood.
+Hardware version 2 seems to use some of the same registers but it is not
+known whether the bits in the registers represent the same thing or might
+have changed their meaning.
+
+On top of that, some register settings have effect only when the touchpad is
+in relative mode and not in absolute mode. As the Linux Elantech touchpad
+driver always puts the hardware into absolute mode not all information
+mentioned below can be used immediately. But because there is no freely
+available Elantech documentation the information is provided here anyway for
+completeness sake.
+
+
+/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
+
+
+2. Extra knobs
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver provides two extra knobs under
+/sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? for the user.
+
+* debug
+
+ Turn different levels of debugging ON or OFF.
+
+ By echoing "0" to this file all debugging will be turned OFF.
+
+ Currently a value of "1" will turn on some basic debugging and a value of
+ "2" will turn on packet debugging. For hardware version 1 the default is
+ OFF. For version 2 the default is "1".
+
+ Turning packet debugging on will make the driver dump every packet
+ received to the syslog before processing it. Be warned that this can
+ generate quite a lot of data!
+
+* paritycheck
+
+ Turns parity checking ON or OFF.
+
+ By echoing "0" to this file parity checking will be turned OFF. Any
+ non-zero value will turn it ON. For hardware version 1 the default is ON.
+ For version 2 the default it is OFF.
+
+ Hardware version 1 provides basic data integrity verification by
+ calculating a parity bit for the last 3 bytes of each packet. The driver
+ can check these bits and reject any packet that appears corrupted. Using
+ this knob you can bypass that check.
+
+ It is not known yet whether hardware version 2 provides the same parity
+ bits. Hence checking is disabled by default. Currently even turning it on
+ will do nothing.
+

+
+ Introduction
+
+UWB is a wide-band communication protocol that is to serve also as the
+low-level protocol for others (much like TCP sits on IP). Currently
+these others are Wireless USB and TCP/IP, but seems Bluetooth and
+Firewire/1394 are coming along.
+
+UWB uses a band from roughly 3 to 10 GHz, transmitting at a max of
+~-41dB (or 0.074 uW/MHz--geography specific data is still being
+negotiated w/ regulators, so watch for changes). That band is divided in
+a bunch of ~1.5 GHz wide channels (or band groups) composed of three
+subbands/subchannels (528 MHz each). Each channel is independent of each
+other, so you could consider them different "busses". Initially this
+driver considers them all a single one.
+
+Radio time is divided in 65536 us long /superframes/, each one divided
+in 256 256us long /MASs/ (Media Allocation Slots), which are the basic
+time/media allocation units for transferring data. At the beginning of
+each superframe there is a Beacon Period (BP), where every device
+transmit its beacon on a single MAS. The length of the BP depends on how
+many devices are present and the length of their beacons.
+
+Devices have a MAC (fixed, 48 bit address) and a device (changeable, 16
+bit address) and send periodic beacons to advertise themselves and pass
+info on what they are and do. They advertise their capabilities and a
+bunch of other stuff.
+
+The different logical parts of this driver are:
+
+ *
+
+ *UWB*: the Ultra-Wide-Band stack -- manages the radio and
+ associated spectrum to allow for devices sharing it. Allows to
+ control bandwidth assingment, beaconing, scanning, etc
+
+ *
+
+ *WUSB*: the layer that sits on top of UWB to provide Wireless USB.
+ The Wireless USB spec defines means to control a UWB radio and to
+ do the actual WUSB.
+
+
+ HWA: Host Wire adapters, your Wireless USB dongle
+
+WUSB also defines a device called a Host Wire Adaptor (HWA), which in
+mere terms is a USB dongle that enables your PC to have UWB and Wireless
+USB. The Wireless USB Host Controller in a HWA looks to the host like a
+[Wireless] USB controller connected via USB (!)
+
+The HWA itself is broken in two or three main interfaces:
+
+ *
+
+ *RC*: Radio control -- this implements an interface to the
+ Ultra-Wide-Band radio controller. The driver for this implements a
+ USB-based UWB Radio Controller to the UWB stack.
+
+ *
+
+ *HC*: the wireless USB host controller. It looks like a USB host
+ whose root port is the radio and the WUSB devices connect to it.
+ To the system it looks like a separate USB host. The driver (will)
+ implement a USB host controller (similar to UHCI, OHCI or EHCI)
+ for which the root hub is the radio...To reiterate: it is a USB
+ controller that is connected via USB instead of PCI.
+
+ *
+
+ *WINET*: some HW provide a WiNET interface (IP over UWB). This
+ package provides a driver for it (it looks like a network
+ interface, winetX). The driver detects when there is a link up for
+ their type and kick into gear.
+
+
+ DWA: Device Wired Adaptor, a Wireless USB hub for wired devices
+
+These are the complement to HWAs. They are a USB host for connecting
+wired devices, but it is connected to your PC connected via Wireless
+USB. To the system it looks like yet another USB host. To the untrained
+eye, it looks like a hub that connects upstream wirelessly.
+
+We still offer no support for this; however, it should share a lot of
+code with the HWA-RC driver; there is a bunch of factorization work that
+has been done to support that in upcoming releases.
+
+
+ WHCI: Wireless Host Controller Interface, the PCI WUSB host adapter
+
+This is your usual PCI device that implements WHCI. Similar in concept
+to EHCI, it allows your wireless USB devices (including DWAs) to connect
+to your host via a PCI interface. As in the case of the HWA, it has a
+Radio Control interface and the WUSB Host Controller interface per se.
+
+There is still no driver support for this, but will be in upcoming
+releases.
+
+
+ The UWB stack
+
+The main mission of the UWB stack is to keep a tally of which devices
+are in radio proximity to allow drivers to connect to them. As well, it
+provides an API for controlling the local radio controllers (RCs from
+now on), such as to start/stop beaconing, scan, allocate bandwidth, etc.
+
+
+ Devices and hosts: the basic structure
+
+The main building block here is the UWB device (struct uwb_dev). For
+each device that pops up in radio presence (ie: the UWB host receives a
+beacon from it) you get a struct uwb_dev that will show up in
+/sys/class/uwb and in /sys/bus/uwb/devices.
+
+For each RC that is detected, a new struct uwb_rc is created. In turn, a
+RC is also a device, so they also show in /sys/class/uwb and
+/sys/bus/uwb/devices, but at the same time, only radio controllers show
+up in /sys/class/uwb_rc.
+
+ *
+
+ [*] The reason for RCs being also devices is that not only we can
+ see them while enumerating the system device tree, but also on the
+ radio (their beacons and stuff), so the handling has to be
+ likewise to that of a device.
+
+Each RC driver is implemented by a separate driver that plugs into the
+interface that the UWB stack provides through a struct uwb_rc_ops. The
+spec creators have been nice enough to make the message format the same
+for HWA and WHCI RCs, so the driver is really a very thin transport that
+moves the requests from the UWB API to the device [/uwb_rc_ops->cmd()/]
+and sends the replies and notifications back to the API
+[/uwb_rc_neh_grok()/]. Notifications are handled to the UWB daemon, that
+is chartered, among other things, to keep the tab of how the UWB radio
+neighborhood looks, creating and destroying devices as they show up or
+dissapear.
+
+Command execution is very simple: a command block is sent and a event
+block or reply is expected back. For sending/receiving command/events, a
+handle called /neh/ (Notification/Event Handle) is opened with
+/uwb_rc_neh_open()/.
+
+The HWA-RC (USB dongle) driver (drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c) does this job for
+the USB connected HWA. Eventually, drivers/whci-rc.c will do the same
+for the PCI connected WHCI controller.
+
+
+ Host Controller life cycle
+
+So let's say we connect a dongle to the system: it is detected and
+firmware uploaded if needed [for Intel's i1480
+/drivers/uwb/ptc/usb.c:ptc_usb_probe()/] and then it is reenumerated.
+Now we have a real HWA device connected and
+/drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_probe()/ picks it up, that will set up the
+Wire-Adaptor environment and then suck it into the UWB stack's vision of
+the world [/drivers/uwb/lc-rc.c:uwb_rc_add()/].
+
+ *
+
+ [*] The stack should put a new RC to scan for devices
+ [/uwb_rc_scan()/] so it finds what's available around and tries to
+ connect to them, but this is policy stuff and should be driven
+ from user space. As of now, the operator is expected to do it
+ manually; see the release notes for documentation on the procedure.
+
+When a dongle is disconnected, /drivers/uwb/hwa-rc.c:hwarc_disconnect()/
+takes time of tearing everything down safely (or not...).
+
+
+ On the air: beacons and enumerating the radio neighborhood
+
+So assuming we have devices and we have agreed for a channel to connect
+on (let's say 9), we put the new RC to beacon:
+
+ *
+
+ $ echo 9 0 > /sys/class/uwb_rc/uwb0/beacon
+
+Now it is visible. If there were other devices in the same radio channel
+and beacon group (that's what the zero is for), the dongle's radio
+control interface will send beacon notifications on its
+notification/event endpoint (NEEP). The beacon notifications are part of
+the event stream that is funneled into the API with
+/drivers/uwb/neh.c:uwb_rc_neh_grok()/ and delivered to the UWBD, the UWB
+daemon through a notification list.
+
+UWBD wakes up and scans the event list; finds a beacon and adds it to
+the BEACON CACHE (/uwb_beca/). If he receives a number of beacons from
+the same device, he considers it to be 'onair' and creates a new device
+[/drivers/uwb/lc-dev.c:uwbd_dev_onair()/]. Similarly, when no beacons
+are received in some time, the device is considered gone and wiped out
+[uwbd calls periodically /uwb/beacon.c:uwb_beca_purge()/ that will purge
+the beacon cache of dead devices].
+
+
+ Device lists
+
+All UWB devices are kept in the list of the struct bus_type uwb_bus.
+
+
+ Bandwidth allocation
+
+The UWB stack maintains a local copy of DRP availability through
+processing of incoming *DRP Availability Change* notifications. This
+local copy is currently used to present the current bandwidth
+availability to the user through the sysfs file
+/sys/class/uwb_rc/uwbx/bw_avail. In the future the bandwidth
+availability information will be used by the bandwidth reservation
+routines.
+
+The bandwidth reservation routines are in progress and are thus not
+present in the current release. When completed they will enable a user
+to initiate DRP reservation requests through interaction with sysfs. DRP
+reservation requests from remote UWB devices will also be handled. The
+bandwidth management done by the UWB stack will include callbacks to the
+higher layers will enable the higher layers to use the reservations upon
+completion. [Note: The bandwidth reservation work is in progress and
+subject to change.]

+ Wireless USB Host Controller drivers
+
+*WARNING* This section needs a lot of work!
+
+As explained above, there are three different types of HCs in the WUSB
+world: HWA-HC, DWA-HC and WHCI-HC.
+
+HWA-HC and DWA-HC share that they are Wire-Adapters (USB or WUSB
+connected controllers), and their transfer management system is almost
+identical. So is their notification delivery system.
+
+HWA-HC and WHCI-HC share that they are both WUSB host controllers, so
+they have to deal with WUSB device life cycle and maintenance, wireless
+root-hub
+
+HWA exposes a Host Controller interface (HWA-HC 0xe0/02/02). This has
+three endpoints (Notifications, Data Transfer In and Data Transfer
+Out--known as NEP, DTI and DTO in the code).
+
+We reserve UWB bandwidth for our Wireless USB Cluster, create a Cluster
+ID and tell the HC to use all that. Then we start it. This means the HC
+starts sending MMCs.
+
+ *
+
+ The MMCs are blocks of data defined somewhere in the WUSB1.0 spec
+ that define a stream in the UWB channel time allocated for sending
+ WUSB IEs (host to device commands/notifications) and Device
+ Notifications (device initiated to host). Each host defines a
+ unique Wireless USB cluster through MMCs. Devices can connect to a
+ single cluster at the time. The IEs are Information Elements, and
+ among them are the bandwidth allocations that tell each device
+ when can they transmit or receive.
+
+Now it all depends on external stimuli.
+
+*New device connection*
+
+A new device pops up, it scans the radio looking for MMCs that give out
+the existence of Wireless USB channels. Once one (or more) are found,
+selects which one to connect to. Sends a /DN_Connect/ (device
+notification connect) during the DNTS (Device Notification Time
+Slot--announced in the MMCs
+
+HC picks the /DN_Connect/ out (nep module sends to notif.c for delivery
+into /devconnect/). This process starts the authentication process for
+the device. First we allocate a /fake port/ and assign an
+unauthenticated address (128 to 255--what we really do is
+0x80 | fake_port_idx). We fiddle with the fake port status and /khubd/
+sees a new connection, so he moves on to enable the fake port with a reset.
+
+So now we are in the reset path -- we know we have a non-yet enumerated
+device with an unauthorized address; we ask user space to authenticate
+(FIXME: not yet done, similar to bluetooth pairing), then we do the key
+exchange (FIXME: not yet done) and issue a /set address 0/ to bring the
+device to the default state. Device is authenticated.
+
+From here, the USB stack takes control through the usb_hcd ops. khubd
+has seen the port status changes, as we have been toggling them. It will
+start enumerating and doing transfers through usb_hcd->urb_enqueue() to
+read descriptors and move our data.
+
+*Device life cycle and keep alives*
+
+Everytime there is a succesful transfer to/from a device, we update a
+per-device activity timestamp. If not, every now and then we check and
+if the activity timestamp gets old, we ping the device by sending it a
+Keep Alive IE; it responds with a /DN_Alive/ pong during the DNTS (this
+arrives to us as a notification through
+devconnect.c:wusb_handle_dn_alive(). If a device times out, we
+disconnect it from the system (cleaning up internal information and
+toggling the bits in the fake hub port, which kicks khubd into removing
+the rest of the stuff).
+
+This is done through devconnect:__wusb_check_devs(), which will scan the
+device list looking for whom needs refreshing.
+
+If the device wants to disconnect, it will either die (ugly) or send a
+/DN_Disconnect/ that will prompt a disconnection from the system.
+
+*Sending and receiving data*
+
+Data is sent and received through /Remote Pipes/ (rpipes). An rpipe is
+/aimed/ at an endpoint in a WUSB device. This is the same for HWAs and
+DWAs.
+
+Each HC has a number of rpipes and buffers that can be assigned to them;
+when doing a data transfer (xfer), first the rpipe has to be aimed and
+prepared (buffers assigned), then we can start queueing requests for
+data in or out.
+
+Data buffers have to be segmented out before sending--so we send first a
+header (segment request) and then if there is any data, a data buffer
+immediately after to the DTI interface (yep, even the request). If our
+buffer is bigger than the max segment size, then we just do multiple
+requests.
+
+[This sucks, because doing USB scatter gatter in Linux is resource
+intensive, if any...not that the current approach is not. It just has to
+be cleaned up a lot :)].
+
+If reading, we don't send data buffers, just the segment headers saying
+we want to read segments.
+
+When the xfer is executed, we receive a notification that says data is
+ready in the DTI endpoint (handled through
+xfer.c:wa_handle_notif_xfer()). In there we read from the DTI endpoint a
+descriptor that gives us the status of the transfer, its identification
+(given when we issued it) and the segment number. If it was a data read,
+we issue another URB to read into the destination buffer the chunk of
+data coming out of the remote endpoint. Done, wait for the next guy. The
+callbacks for the URBs issued from here are the ones that will declare
+the xfer complete at some point and call it's callback.
+
+Seems simple, but the implementation is not trivial.
+
+ *
+
+ *WARNING* Old!!
+
+The main xfer descriptor, wa_xfer (equivalent to a URB) contains an
+array of segments, tallys on segments and buffers and callback
+information. Buried in there is a lot of URBs for executing the segments
+and buffer transfers.
+
+For OUT xfers, there is an array of segments, one URB for each, another
+one of buffer URB. When submitting, we submit URBs for segment request
+1, buffer 1, segment 2, buffer 2...etc. Then we wait on the DTI for xfer
+result data; when all the segments are complete, we call the callback to
+finalize the transfer.
+
+For IN xfers, we only issue URBs for the segments we want to read and
+then wait for the xfer result data.
+
+*URB mapping into xfers*
+
+This is done by hwahc_op_urb_[en|de]queue(). In enqueue() we aim an
+rpipe to the endpoint where we have to transmit, create a transfer
+context (wa_xfer) and submit it. When the xfer is done, our callback is
+called and we assign the status bits and release the xfer resources.
+
+In dequeue() we are basically cancelling/aborting the transfer. We issue
+a xfer abort request to the HC, cancell all the URBs we had submitted
+and not yet done and when all that is done, the xfer callback will be
+called--this will call the URB callback.

+Command for manipulating the pairing/authentication credentials of a
+Wireless USB device that supports wired-mode Cable-Based-Association.
+
+Works in conjunction with the wusb-cba.ko driver from http://linuxuwb.org.
+
+
+DEVICE
+
+ sysfs path to the device to authenticate; for example, both this
+ guys are the same:
+

+
+COMMAND/ARGS are
+
+ start
+
+ Start a WUSB host controller (by setting up a CHID)
+
+ set-chid DEVICE HOST-CHID HOST-BANDGROUP HOST-NAME
+
+ Sets host information in the device; after this you can call the
+ get-cdid to see how does this device report itself to us.
+
+ get-cdid DEVICE
+
+ Get the device ID associated to the HOST-CHDI we sent with
+ 'set-chid'. We might not know about it.
+
+ set-cc DEVICE
+
+ If we allow the device to connect, set a random new CDID and CK
+ (connection key). Device saves them for the next time it wants to
+ connect wireless. We save them for that next time also so we can
+ authenticate the device (when we see the CDID he uses to id
+ itself) and the CK to crypto talk to it.
+
+CHID is always 16 hex bytes in 'XX YY ZZ...' form
+BANDGROUP is almost always 0001
+
+Examples:
+
+ You can default most arguments to '' to get a sane value:
+
+ $ $progname set-chid '' '' '' "My host name"
