+Date: June 2019
+Contact: Cornelia Huck <cohuck@redhat.com>
+ linux-s390@vger.kernel.org
+Description: This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When
+ specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written
+ to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the
+ device. The override is specified by writing a string to the
+ driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and
+ may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override).
+ This returns the device to standard matching rules binding.
+ Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the
+ device from its current driver or make any attempt to
+ automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a
+ matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device
+ will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to
+ opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as
+ "none". Only a single driver may be specified in the override,
+ there is no support for parsing delimiters.
+ Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this
+ file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e.,
+ the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device.

-Proportional Weight division of bandwidth
------------------------------------------
-You can do a very simple testing of running two dd threads in two different
-cgroups. Here is what you can do.
-
-- Enable Block IO controller
- CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP=y
-
-- Enable group scheduling in CFQ
- CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED=y
-
-- Compile and boot into kernel and mount IO controller (blkio); see
- cgroups.txt, Why are cgroups needed?.
-
- mount -t tmpfs cgroup_root /sys/fs/cgroup
- mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio
- mount -t cgroup -o blkio none /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio
-
-- Create two cgroups
- mkdir -p /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test1/ /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test2
-
-- Set weights of group test1 and test2
- echo 1000 > /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test1/blkio.weight
- echo 500 > /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test2/blkio.weight
-
-- Create two same size files (say 512MB each) on same disk (file1, file2) and
- launch two dd threads in different cgroup to read those files.
-
- sync
- echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
-
- dd if=/mnt/sdb/zerofile1 of=/dev/null &
- echo $! > /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test1/tasks
- cat /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test1/tasks
-
- dd if=/mnt/sdb/zerofile2 of=/dev/null &
- echo $! > /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test2/tasks
- cat /sys/fs/cgroup/blkio/test2/tasks
-
-- At macro level, first dd should finish first. To get more precise data, keep
- on looking at (with the help of script), at blkio.disk_time and
- blkio.disk_sectors files of both test1 and test2 groups. This will tell how
- much disk time (in milliseconds), each group got and how many sectors each
- group dispatched to the disk. We provide fairness in terms of disk time, so
- ideally io.disk_time of cgroups should be in proportion to the weight.

-------------------------------------------
-On a faster hardware CFQ can be slow, especially with sequential workload.
-This happens because CFQ idles on a single queue and single queue might not
-drive deeper request queue depths to keep the storage busy. In such scenarios
-one can try setting slice_idle=0 and that would switch CFQ to IOPS
-(IO operations per second) mode on NCQ supporting hardware.
-
-That means CFQ will not idle between cfq queues of a cfq group and hence be
-able to driver higher queue depth and achieve better throughput. That also
-means that cfq provides fairness among groups in terms of IOPS and not in
-terms of disk time.
-
-/sys/block/<disk>/queue/iosched/group_idle
-------------------------------------------
-If one disables idling on individual cfq queues and cfq service trees by
-setting slice_idle=0, group_idle kicks in. That means CFQ will still idle
-on the group in an attempt to provide fairness among groups.
-
-By default group_idle is same as slice_idle and does not do anything if
-slice_idle is enabled.
-
-One can experience an overall throughput drop if you have created multiple
-groups and put applications in that group which are not driving enough
-IO to keep disk busy. In that case set group_idle=0, and CFQ will not idle
-on individual groups and throughput should improve.

Mounting with other subsystems is a good test because there is a

+ # mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o cpuset,memory,cpu,devices
and do task move, mkdir, rmdir etc...under this.
- 9.7 swapoff.
+9.7 swapoff
+-----------
+
Besides management of swap is one of complicated parts of memcg,
call path of swap-in at swapoff is not same as usual swap-in path..
It's worth to be tested explicitly.
- For example, test like following is good.
- (Shell-A)
- # mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o memory
- # mkdir /cgroup/test
- # echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
- # echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
+ For example, test like following is good:
+
+ (Shell-A)::
+
+ # mount -t cgroup none /cgroup -o memory
+ # mkdir /cgroup/test
+ # echo 40M > /cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
+ # echo 0 > /cgroup/test/tasks
+
Run malloc(100M) program under this. You'll see 60M of swaps.
- (Shell-B)
- # move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
- # /sbin/swapoff -a
- # rmdir /cgroup/test
- # kill malloc task.
+
+ (Shell-B)::
+
+ # move all tasks in /cgroup/test to /cgroup
+ # /sbin/swapoff -a
+ # rmdir /cgroup/test
+ # kill malloc task.
Of course, tmpfs v.s. swapoff test should be tested, too.
- 9.8 OOM-Killer
+9.8 OOM-Killer
+--------------
+
Out-of-memory caused by memcg's limit will kill tasks under
the memcg. When hierarchy is used, a task under hierarchy
will be killed by the kernel.
+
In this case, panic_on_oom shouldn't be invoked and tasks
in other groups shouldn't be killed.
It's not difficult to cause OOM under memcg as following.
- Case A) when you can swapoff
- #swapoff -a
- #echo 50M > /memory.limit_in_bytes
+
+ Case A) when you can swapoff::
+
+ #swapoff -a
+ #echo 50M > /memory.limit_in_bytes
+
run 51M of malloc
- Case B) when you use mem+swap limitation.
- #echo 50M > memory.limit_in_bytes
- #echo 50M > memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
+ Case B) when you use mem+swap limitation::
+
+ #echo 50M > memory.limit_in_bytes
+ #echo 50M > memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
+
run 51M of malloc
- 9.9 Move charges at task migration
+9.9 Move charges at task migration
+----------------------------------
+
Charges associated with a task can be moved along with task migration.
- (Shell-A)
- #mkdir /cgroup/A
- #echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
+ (Shell-A)::
+
+ #mkdir /cgroup/A
+ #echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
+
run some programs which uses some amount of memory in /cgroup/A.
- (Shell-B)
- #mkdir /cgroup/B
- #echo 1 >/cgroup/B/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
- #echo "pid of the program running in group A" >/cgroup/B/tasks
+ (Shell-B)::
+
+ #mkdir /cgroup/B
+ #echo 1 >/cgroup/B/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
+ #echo "pid of the program running in group A" >/cgroup/B/tasks

+
+9.10 Memory thresholds
+----------------------
+
Memory controller implements memory thresholds using cgroups notification
API. You can use tools/cgroup/cgroup_event_listener.c to test it.
- (Shell-A) Create cgroup and run event listener
- # mkdir /cgroup/A
- # ./cgroup_event_listener /cgroup/A/memory.usage_in_bytes 5M
+ (Shell-A) Create cgroup and run event listener::
+
+ # mkdir /cgroup/A
+ # ./cgroup_event_listener /cgroup/A/memory.usage_in_bytes 5M
+
+ (Shell-B) Add task to cgroup and try to allocate and free memory::
- (Shell-B) Add task to cgroup and try to allocate and free memory
- # echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
- # a="$(dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=10)"
- # a=
+ # echo $$ >/cgroup/A/tasks
+ # a="$(dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=10)"
+ # a=
You will see message from cgroup_event_listener every time you cross
the thresholds.

Because the "kmem" counter is fed to the main user counter, kernel memory can

limit, and "K" the kernel limit. There are three possible ways limits can be
set:
- U != 0, K = unlimited:

This is the standard memcg limitation mechanism already present before kmem
accounting. Kernel memory is completely ignored.
- U != 0, K < U:

+Crypto Engine
=============
Overview
--------
-The crypto engine API (CE), is a crypto queue manager.
+The crypto engine (CE) API is a crypto queue manager.
Requirement
-----------
-You have to put at start of your tfm_ctx the struct crypto_engine_ctx::
+You must put, at the start of your transform context your_tfm_ctx, the structure
+crypto_engine:
+
+::
- struct your_tfm_ctx {
- struct crypto_engine_ctx enginectx;
- ...
- };
+ struct your_tfm_ctx {
+ struct crypto_engine engine;
+ ...
+ };
-Why: Since CE manage only crypto_async_request, it cannot know the underlying
-request_type and so have access only on the TFM.
-So using container_of for accessing __ctx is impossible.
-Furthermore, the crypto engine cannot know the "struct your_tfm_ctx",
-so it must assume that crypto_engine_ctx is at start of it.
+The crypto engine only manages asynchronous requests in the form of
+crypto_async_request. It cannot know the underlying request type and thus only
+has access to the transform structure. It is not possible to access the context
+using container_of. In addition, the engine knows nothing about your
+structure "``struct your_tfm_ctx``". The engine assumes (requires) the placement
+of the known member ``struct crypto_engine`` at the beginning.
Order of operations
-------------------
-You have to obtain a struct crypto_engine via crypto_engine_alloc_init().
-And start it via crypto_engine_start().
-
-Before transferring any request, you have to fill the enginectx.
-- prepare_request: (taking a function pointer) If you need to do some processing before doing the request
-- unprepare_request: (taking a function pointer) Undoing what's done in prepare_request
-- do_one_request: (taking a function pointer) Do encryption for current request
-
-Note: that those three functions get the crypto_async_request associated with the received request.
-So your need to get the original request via container_of(areq, struct yourrequesttype_request, base);
-
-When your driver receive a crypto_request, you have to transfer it to
-the cryptoengine via one of:
-- crypto_transfer_ablkcipher_request_to_engine()
-- crypto_transfer_aead_request_to_engine()
-- crypto_transfer_akcipher_request_to_engine()
-- crypto_transfer_hash_request_to_engine()
-- crypto_transfer_skcipher_request_to_engine()
-
-At the end of the request process, a call to one of the following function is needed:
-- crypto_finalize_ablkcipher_request
-- crypto_finalize_aead_request
-- crypto_finalize_akcipher_request
-- crypto_finalize_hash_request
-- crypto_finalize_skcipher_request
+You are required to obtain a struct crypto_engine via ``crypto_engine_alloc_init()``.
+Start it via ``crypto_engine_start()``. When finished with your work, shut down the
+engine using ``crypto_engine_stop()`` and destroy the engine with
+``crypto_engine_exit()``.
+
+Before transferring any request, you have to fill the context enginectx by
+providing functions for the following:
+
+* ``prepare_crypt_hardware``: Called once before any prepare functions are
+ called.
+
+* ``unprepare_crypt_hardware``: Called once after all unprepare functions have
+ been called.
+
+* ``prepare_cipher_request``/``prepare_hash_request``: Called before each
+ corresponding request is performed. If some processing or other preparatory
+ work is required, do it here.
+
+* ``unprepare_cipher_request``/``unprepare_hash_request``: Called after each
+ request is handled. Clean up / undo what was done in the prepare function.
+
+* ``cipher_one_request``/``hash_one_request``: Handle the current request by
+ performing the operation.
+
+Note that these functions access the crypto_async_request structure
+associated with the received request. You are able to retrieve the original
+request by using:
+
+::
+
+ container_of(areq, struct yourrequesttype_request, base);
+
+When your driver receives a crypto_request, you must to transfer it to
+the crypto engine via one of:
+
+* crypto_transfer_ablkcipher_request_to_engine()
+
+* crypto_transfer_aead_request_to_engine()
+
+* crypto_transfer_akcipher_request_to_engine()
+
+* crypto_transfer_hash_request_to_engine()
+
+* crypto_transfer_skcipher_request_to_engine()
+
+At the end of the request process, a call to one of the following functions is needed:
+
+* crypto_finalize_ablkcipher_request()
+
+* crypto_finalize_aead_request()
+
+* crypto_finalize_akcipher_request()
+
+* crypto_finalize_hash_request()
+

+i.MX CPUFreq-DT OPP bindings
+================================
+
+Certain i.MX SoCs support different OPPs depending on the "market segment" and
+"speed grading" value which are written in fuses. These bits are combined with
+the opp-supported-hw values for each OPP to check if the OPP is allowed.
+
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+
+For each opp entry in 'operating-points-v2' table:
+- opp-supported-hw: Two bitmaps indicating:
+ - Supported speed grade mask
+ - Supported market segment mask
+ 0: Consumer
+ 1: Extended Consumer
+ 2: Industrial
+ 3: Automotive
+
+Example:
+--------
+
+opp_table {
+ compatible = "operating-points-v2";
+ opp-1000000000 {
+ opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1000000000>;
+ /* grade >= 0, consumer only */

+ };
+
+ opp-1300000000 {

+* Single Byte SPI LED Device Driver.
+
+The driver can be used for controllers with a very simple SPI protocol:
+- one LED is controlled by a single byte on MOSI
+- the value of the byte gives the brightness between two values (lowest to
+ highest)
+- no return value is necessary (no MISO signal)
+
+The value for lowest and highest brightness is dependent on the device and
+therefore on the compatible string.
+
+Depending on the compatible string some special functions (like hardware
+accelerated blinking) might can be supported too.
+
+The driver currently only supports one LED. The properties of the LED are
+configured in a sub-node in the device node.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be one of
+ * "ubnt,acb-spi-led" microcontroller (SONiX 8F26E611LA) based device
+ used for example in Ubiquiti airCube ISP

+Amlogic Video Decoder
+================================
+
+The video decoding IP lies within the DOS memory region,
+except for the hardware bitstream parser that makes use of an undocumented
+region.
+
+It makes use of the following blocks:
+
+- ESPARSER is a bitstream parser that outputs to a VIFIFO. Further VDEC blocks
+then feed from this VIFIFO.
+- VDEC_1 can decode MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 part 2, MJPEG, H.263, H.264, VC-1.
+- VDEC_HEVC can decode HEVC and VP9.
+
+Both VDEC_1 and VDEC_HEVC share the "vdec" IRQ and as such cannot run
+concurrently.
+
+Device Tree Bindings:
+---------------------
+
+VDEC: Video Decoder

+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: value should be different for each SoC family as :
+ - GXBB (S905) : "amlogic,gxbb-vdec"
+ - GXL (S905X, S905D) : "amlogic,gxl-vdec"
+ - GXM (S912) : "amlogic,gxm-vdec"
+- reg: base address and size of he following memory-mapped regions :
+ - dos
+ - esparser
+- reg-names: should contain the names of the previous memory regions
+- interrupts: should contain the following IRQs:
+ - vdec
+ - esparser
+- interrupt-names: should contain the names of the previous interrupts
+- amlogic,ao-sysctrl: should point to the AOBUS sysctrl node
+- amlogic,canvas: should point to a canvas provider node
+- clocks: should contain the following clocks :
+ - dos_parser
+ - dos
+ - vdec_1
+ - vdec_hevc
+- clock-names: should contain the names of the previous clocks
+- resets: should contain the parser reset
+- reset-names: should be "esparser"

+SiFive PWM controller
+
+Unlike most other PWM controllers, the SiFive PWM controller currently only
+supports one period for all channels in the PWM. All PWMs need to run at
+the same period. The period also has significant restrictions on the values
+it can achieve, which the driver rounds to the nearest achievable period.
+PWM RTL that corresponds to the IP block version numbers can be found
+here:
+
+https://github.com/sifive/sifive-blocks/tree/master/src/main/scala/devices/pwm
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "sifive,<chip>-pwm" and "sifive,pwm<version>".
+ Supported compatible strings are: "sifive,fu540-c000-pwm" for the SiFive
+ PWM v0 as integrated onto the SiFive FU540 chip, and "sifive,pwm0" for the
+ SiFive PWM v0 IP block with no chip integration tweaks.
+ Please refer to sifive-blocks-ip-versioning.txt for details.
+- reg: physical base address and length of the controller's registers
+- clocks: Should contain a clock identifier for the PWM's parent clock.
+- #pwm-cells: Should be 3. See pwm.txt in this directory

-- regulator-allow-bypass: allow the regulator to go into bypass mode
-- regulator-allow-set-load: allow the regulator performance level to be configured
-- <name>-supply: phandle to the parent supply/regulator node
-- regulator-ramp-delay: ramp delay for regulator(in uV/us)
- For hardware which supports disabling ramp rate, it should be explicitly
- initialised to zero (regulator-ramp-delay = <0>) for disabling ramp delay.
-- regulator-enable-ramp-delay: The time taken, in microseconds, for the supply
- rail to reach the target voltage, plus/minus whatever tolerance the board
- design requires. This property describes the total system ramp time
- required due to the combination of internal ramping of the regulator itself,
- and board design issues such as trace capacitance and load on the supply.
-- regulator-settling-time-us: Settling time, in microseconds, for voltage
- change if regulator have the constant time for any level voltage change.
- This is useful when regulator have exponential voltage change.
-- regulator-settling-time-up-us: Settling time, in microseconds, for voltage
- increase if the regulator needs a constant time to settle after voltage
- increases of any level. This is useful for regulators with exponential
- voltage changes.
-- regulator-settling-time-down-us: Settling time, in microseconds, for voltage
- decrease if the regulator needs a constant time to settle after voltage
- decreases of any level. This is useful for regulators with exponential
- voltage changes.
-- regulator-soft-start: Enable soft start so that voltage ramps slowly
-- regulator-state-standby sub-root node for Standby mode
- : equivalent with standby Linux sleep state, which provides energy savings
- with a relatively quick transition back time.
-- regulator-state-mem sub-root node for Suspend-to-RAM mode
- : suspend to memory, the device goes to sleep, but all data stored in memory,
- only some external interrupt can wake the device.
-- regulator-state-disk sub-root node for Suspend-to-DISK mode
- : suspend to disk, this state operates similarly to Suspend-to-RAM,
- but includes a final step of writing memory contents to disk.
-- regulator-state-[mem/disk/standby] node has following common properties:
- - regulator-on-in-suspend: regulator should be on in suspend state.
- - regulator-off-in-suspend: regulator should be off in suspend state.
- - regulator-suspend-min-microvolt: minimum voltage may be set in
- suspend state.
- - regulator-suspend-max-microvolt: maximum voltage may be set in
- suspend state.
- - regulator-suspend-microvolt: the default voltage which regulator
- would be set in suspend. This property is now deprecated, instead
- setting voltage for suspend mode via the API which regulator
- driver provides is recommended.
- - regulator-changeable-in-suspend: whether the default voltage and
- the regulator on/off in suspend can be changed in runtime.
- - regulator-mode: operating mode in the given suspend state.
- The set of possible operating modes depends on the capabilities of
- every hardware so the valid modes are documented on each regulator
- device tree binding document.
-- regulator-initial-mode: initial operating mode. The set of possible operating
- modes depends on the capabilities of every hardware so each device binding
- documentation explains which values the regulator supports.
-- regulator-allowed-modes: list of operating modes that software is allowed to
- configure for the regulator at run-time. Elements may be specified in any
- order. The set of possible operating modes depends on the capabilities of
- every hardware so each device binding document explains which values the
- regulator supports.
-- regulator-system-load: Load in uA present on regulator that is not captured by
- any consumer request.
-- regulator-pull-down: Enable pull down resistor when the regulator is disabled.
-- regulator-over-current-protection: Enable over current protection.
-- regulator-active-discharge: tristate, enable/disable active discharge of
- regulators. The values are:
- 0: Disable active discharge.
- 1: Enable active discharge.
- Absence of this property will leave configuration to default.
-- regulator-coupled-with: Regulators with which the regulator
- is coupled. The linkage is 2-way - all coupled regulators should be linked
- with each other. A regulator should not be coupled with its supplier.
-- regulator-coupled-max-spread: Array of maximum spread between voltages of
- coupled regulators in microvolts, each value in the array relates to the
- corresponding couple specified by the regulator-coupled-with property.
-- regulator-max-step-microvolt: Maximum difference between current and target
- voltages that can be changed safely in a single step.
-
-Deprecated properties:
-- regulator-compatible: If a regulator chip contains multiple
- regulators, and if the chip's binding contains a child node that
- describes each regulator, then this property indicates which regulator
- this child node is intended to configure. If this property is missing,
- the node's name will be used instead.
-
-Example:
-
- xyzreg: regulator@0 {
- regulator-min-microvolt = <1000000>;
- regulator-max-microvolt = <2500000>;
- regulator-always-on;
- vin-supply = <&vin>;
-
- regulator-state-mem {

-Regulator Consumers:
-Consumer nodes can reference one or more of its supplies/
-regulators using the below bindings.
-
-- <name>-supply: phandle to the regulator node
-
-These are the same bindings that a regulator in the above
-example used to reference its own supply, in which case
-its just seen as a special case of a regulator being a
-consumer itself.
-
-Example of a consumer device node (mmc) referencing two

+ For CS47L35 one of the CS47L35_DMIC_REF_xxx values
+ For all other codecs one of the MADERA_DMIC_REF_xxx values
+ Also see the datasheet for a description of the INn_DMIC_SUP field.

+ 16 cells, with four cells per input in the order INnAL, INnAR INnBL INnBR.
+ For non-muxed inputs the first two cells for that input set the mode for
+ the left and right channel and the second two cells must be 0.
+ For muxed inputs the first two cells for that input set the mode of the
+ left and right A inputs and the second two cells set the mode of the left
+ and right B inputs.
+ Valid mode values are one of the MADERA_INMODE_xxx. If the array is shorter

+ array is shorter outputs will be set to stereo.
+
+ - cirrus,max-channels-clocked : Maximum number of channels that I2S clocks
+ will be generated for. Useful when clock master for systems where the I2S
+ bus has multiple data lines.
+ One cell for each AIF, use a value of zero for AIFs that should be handled
+ normally.
+
+ - cirrus,pdm-fmt : PDM speaker data format, must contain 2 cells
+ (OUT5 and OUT6). See the PDM_SPKn_FMT field in the datasheet for a

-SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) busses
-
-SPI busses can be described with a node for the SPI controller device
-and a set of child nodes for each SPI slave on the bus. The system's SPI
-controller may be described for use in SPI master mode or in SPI slave mode,
-but not for both at the same time.
-
-The SPI controller node requires the following properties:
-- compatible - Name of SPI bus controller following generic names
- recommended practice.
-
-In master mode, the SPI controller node requires the following additional
-properties:
-- #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select
- address on the SPI bus.
-- #size-cells - should be zero.
-
-In slave mode, the SPI controller node requires one additional property:
-- spi-slave - Empty property.
-
-No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed
-that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus.
-However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for
-assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is
-flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the
-assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage
-chip selects. Individual drivers can define additional properties to
-support describing the chip select layout.
-
-Optional properties (master mode only):
-- cs-gpios - gpios chip select.
-- num-cs - total number of chipselects.
-
-If cs-gpios is used the number of chip selects will be increased automatically
-with max(cs-gpios > hw cs).
-
-So if for example the controller has 2 CS lines, and the cs-gpios
-property looks like this:
-
-cs-gpios = <&gpio1 0 0>, <0>, <&gpio1 1 0>, <&gpio1 2 0>;
-
-Then it should be configured so that num_chipselect = 4 with the
-following mapping:
-
-cs0 : &gpio1 0 0
-cs1 : native
-cs2 : &gpio1 1 0
-cs3 : &gpio1 2 0
-
-
-SPI slave nodes must be children of the SPI controller node.
-
-In master mode, one or more slave nodes (up to the number of chip selects) can
-be present. Required properties are:
-- compatible - Name of SPI device following generic names recommended
- practice.
-- reg - Chip select address of device.
-- spi-max-frequency - Maximum SPI clocking speed of device in Hz.
-
-In slave mode, the (single) slave node is optional.
-If present, it must be called "slave". Required properties are:
-- compatible - Name of SPI device following generic names recommended
- practice.
-
-All slave nodes can contain the following optional properties:
-- spi-cpol - Empty property indicating device requires inverse clock
- polarity (CPOL) mode.
-- spi-cpha - Empty property indicating device requires shifted clock
- phase (CPHA) mode.
-- spi-cs-high - Empty property indicating device requires chip select
- active high.
-- spi-3wire - Empty property indicating device requires 3-wire mode.
-- spi-lsb-first - Empty property indicating device requires LSB first mode.
-- spi-tx-bus-width - The bus width (number of data wires) that is used for MOSI.
- Defaults to 1 if not present.
-- spi-rx-bus-width - The bus width (number of data wires) that is used for MISO.
- Defaults to 1 if not present.
-- spi-rx-delay-us - Microsecond delay after a read transfer.
-- spi-tx-delay-us - Microsecond delay after a write transfer.
-
-Some SPI controllers and devices support Dual and Quad SPI transfer mode.
-It allows data in the SPI system to be transferred using 2 wires (DUAL) or 4
-wires (QUAD).
-Now the value that spi-tx-bus-width and spi-rx-bus-width can receive is
-only 1 (SINGLE), 2 (DUAL) and 4 (QUAD).
-Dual/Quad mode is not allowed when 3-wire mode is used.
-
-If a gpio chipselect is used for the SPI slave the gpio number will be passed
-via the SPI master node cs-gpios property.
-
-SPI example for an MPC5200 SPI bus:
- spi@f00 {
- #address-cells = <1>;
- #size-cells = <0>;
- compatible = "fsl,mpc5200b-spi","fsl,mpc5200-spi";
- reg = <0xf00 0x20>;
- interrupts = <2 13 0 2 14 0>;
- interrupt-parent = <&mpc5200_pic>;
-
- ethernet-switch@0 {
- compatible = "micrel,ks8995m";
- spi-max-frequency = <1000000>;
- reg = <0>;

+NXP System Counter Module(sys_ctr)
+
+The system counter(sys_ctr) is a programmable system counter which provides
+a shared time base to Cortex A15, A7, A53, A73, etc. it is intended for use in
+applications where the counter is always powered and support multiple,
+unrelated clocks. The compare frame inside can be used for timer purpose.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be "nxp,sysctr-timer"
+- reg : Specifies the base physical address and size of the comapre
+ frame and the counter control, read & compare.
+- interrupts : should be the first compare frames' interrupt
+- clocks : Specifies the counter clock.
+- clock-names: Specifies the clock's name of this module
+
+Example:
+
+ system_counter: timer@306a0000 {
+ compatible = "nxp,sysctr-timer";
+ reg = <0x306a0000 0x20000>;/* system-counter-rd & compare */

-FMC (FPGA Mezzanine Card) is the standard we use for our I/O devices,
-in the context of White Rabbit and related hardware.
-
-In our I/O environments we need to write drivers for each mezzanine
-card, and such drivers must work regardless of the carrier being used.
-To achieve this, we abstract the FMC interface.
-
-We have a carrier for PCI-E called SPEC and one for VME called SVEC,
-but more are planned. Also, we support stand-alone devices (usually
-plugged on a SPEC card), controlled through Etherbone, developed by GSI.
-
-Code and documentation for the FMC bus was born as part of the spec-sw
-project, but now it lives in its own project. Other projects, i.e.
-software support for the various carriers, should include this as a
-submodule.
-
-The most up to date version of code and documentation is always

-What is FMC
-***********
-
-FMC, as said, stands for "FPGA Mezzanine Card". It is a standard
-developed by the VME consortium called VITA (VMEbus International Trade
-Association and ratified by ANSI, the American National Standard
-Institute. The official documentation is called "ANSI-VITA 57.1".
-
-The FMC card is an almost square PCB, around 70x75 millimeters, that is
-called mezzanine in this document. It usually lives plugged into
-another PCB for power supply and control; such bigger circuit board is
-called carrier from now on, and a single carrier may host more than one
-mezzanine.
-
-In the typical application the mezzanine is mostly analog while the
-carrier is mostly digital, and hosts an FPGA that must be configured to
-match the specific mezzanine and the desired application. Thus, you may
-need to load different FPGA images to drive different instances of the
-same mezzanine.
-
-FMC, as such, is not a bus in the usual meaning of the term, because
-most carriers have only one connector, and carriers with several
-connectors have completely separate electrical connections to them.
-This package, however, implements a bus as a software abstraction.
-
-
-What is SDB
-***********
-
-SDB (Self Describing Bus) is a set of data structures that we use for
-enumerating the internal structure of an FPGA image. We also use it as
-a filesystem inside the FMC EEPROM.
-
-SDB is not mandatory for use of this FMC kernel bus, but if you have SDB
-this package can make good use of it. SDB itself is developed in the
-fpga-config-space OHWR project. The link to the repository is
-`git://ohwr.org/hdl-core-lib/fpga-config-space.git' and what is used in
-this project lives in the sdbfs subdirectory in there.
-
-SDB support for FMC is described in *note FMC Identification:: and
-*note SDB Support::
-
-
-SDB Support

-
-The fmc.ko bus driver exports a few functions to help drivers taking
-advantage of the SDB information that may be present in your own FPGA

-FMC Device
-**********
-
-Within the Linux bus framework, the FMC device is created and
-registered by the carrier driver. For example, the PCI driver for the
-SPEC card fills a data structure for each SPEC that it drives, and
-registers an associated FMC device for each card. The SVEC driver can
-do exactly the same for the VME carrier (actually, it should do it
-twice, because the SVEC carries two FMC mezzanines). Similarly, an
-Etherbone driver will be able to register its own FMC devices, offering
-communication primitives through frame exchange.
-
-The contents of the EEPROM within the FMC are used for identification
-purposes, i.e. for matching the device with its own driver. For this
-reason the device structure includes a complete copy of the EEPROM
-(actually, the carrier driver may choose whether or not to return it -
-for example we most likely won't have the whole EEPROM available for
-Etherbone devices.
-
-The following listing shows the current structure defining a device.
-Please note that all the machinery is in place but some details may
-still change in the future. For this reason, there is a version field
-at the beginning of the structure. As usual, the minor number will
-change for compatible changes (like a new flag) and the major number
-will increase when an incompatible change happens (for example, a
-change in layout of some fmc data structures). Device writers should
-just set it to the value FMC_VERSION, and be ready to get back -EINVAL
-at registration time.
-

-
-The meaning of most fields is summarized in the code comment above.
-
-The following fields must be filled by the carrier driver before
-registration:
-
- * version: must be set to FMC_VERSION.
-
- * owner: set to MODULE_OWNER.
-
- * op: the operations to act on the device.
-
- * irq: number for the mezzanine; may be zero.
-
- * eeprom_len: length of the following array.
-
- * eeprom_addr: 0x50 for first mezzanine and so on.
-
- * eeprom: the full content of the I2C EEPROM.
-
- * carrier_name.
-
- * carrier_data: a unique pointer for the carrier.
-
- * fpga_base: the I/O memory address (may be NULL).
-
- * slot_id: the index of this slot (starting from zero).
-
- * memlen: if fpga_base is valid, the length of I/O memory.
-
- * hwdev: to be used in some dev_err() calls.
-
- * device_id: a slot-specific unique integer number.
-
-
-Please note that the carrier should read its own EEPROM memory before
-registering the device, as well as fill all other fields listed above.
-
-The following fields should not be assigned, because they are filled
-later by either the bus or the device driver:
-
- * flags.
-
- * fru_id: filled by the bus, parsing the eeprom.
-
- * slot_base: filled and used by the driver, if useful to it.
-
- * devarray: an array og all mezzanines driven by a singe FPGA.
-
- * nr_slots: set by the core at registration time.
-
- * dev: used by Linux.
-
- * sdb: FPGA contents, scanned according to driver's directions.
-
- * sdbfs_entry: SDB entry point in EEPROM: autodetected.
-
- * mezzanine_data: available for the driver.
-
- * mezzanine_name: filled by fmc-bus during identification.
-
-
-Note: mezzanine_data may be redundant, because Linux offers the drvdata
-approach, so the field may be removed in later versions of this bus
-implementation.
-
-As I write this, she SPEC carrier is already completely functional in
-the fmc-bus environment, and is a good reference to look at.
-
-
-The API Offered by Carriers
-===========================
-
-The carrier provides a number of methods by means of the
-`fmc_operations' structure, which currently is defined like this
-(again, it is a moving target, please refer to the header rather than
-this document):
-
- struct fmc_operations {
- uint32_t (*readl)(struct fmc_device *fmc, int offset);
- void (*writel)(struct fmc_device *fmc, uint32_t value, int offset);
- int (*reprogram)(struct fmc_device *f, struct fmc_driver *d, char *gw);
- int (*validate)(struct fmc_device *fmc, struct fmc_driver *drv);
- int (*irq_request)(struct fmc_device *fmc, irq_handler_t h,
- char *name, int flags);
- void (*irq_ack)(struct fmc_device *fmc);
- int (*irq_free)(struct fmc_device *fmc);
- int (*gpio_config)(struct fmc_device *fmc, struct fmc_gpio *gpio,
- int ngpio);
- int (*read_ee)(struct fmc_device *fmc, int pos, void *d, int l);
- int (*write_ee)(struct fmc_device *fmc, int pos, const void *d, int l);
- };
-
-The individual methods perform the following tasks:
-
-`readl'
-`writel'
- These functions access FPGA registers by whatever means the
- carrier offers. They are not expected to fail, and most of the time
- they will just make a memory access to the host bus. If the
- carrier provides a fpga_base pointer, the driver may use direct
- access through that pointer. For this reason the header offers the
- inline functions fmc_readl and fmc_writel that access fpga_base if
- the respective method is NULL. A driver that wants to be portable
- and efficient should use fmc_readl and fmc_writel. For Etherbone,
- or other non-local carriers, error-management is still to be
- defined.
-
-`validate'
- Module parameters are used to manage different applications for
- two or more boards of the same kind. Validation is based on the
- busid module parameter, if provided, and returns the matching
- index in the associated array. See *note Module Parameters:: in in
- doubt. If no match is found, `-ENOENT' is returned; if the user
- didn't pass `busid=', all devices will pass validation. The value
- returned by the validate method can be used as index into other
- parameters (for example, some drivers use the `lm32=' parameter in
- this way). Such "generic parameters" are documented in *note
- Module Parameters::, below. The validate method is used by
- `fmc-trivial.ko', described in *note fmc-trivial::.
-
-`reprogram'
- The carrier enumerates FMC devices by loading a standard (or
- golden) FPGA binary that allows EEPROM access. Each driver, then,
- will need to reprogram the FPGA by calling this function. If the
- name argument is NULL, the carrier should reprogram the golden
- binary. If the gateware name has been overridden through module
- parameters (in a carrier-specific way) the file loaded will match
- the parameters. Per-device gateware names can be specified using
- the `gateware=' parameter, see *note Module Parameters::. Note:
- Clients should call rhe new helper, fmc_reprogram, which both
- calls this method and parse the SDB tree of the FPGA.
-
-`irq_request'
-`irq_ack'
-`irq_free'
- Interrupt management is carrier-specific, so it is abstracted as
- operations. The interrupt number is listed in the device
- structure, and for the mezzanine driver the number is only
- informative. The handler will receive the fmc pointer as dev_id;
- the flags argument is passed to the Linux request_irq function,
- but fmc-specific flags may be added in the future. You'll most
- likely want to pass the `IRQF_SHARED' flag.
-
-`gpio_config'
- The method allows to configure a GPIO pin in the carrier, and read
- its current value if it is configured as input. See *note The GPIO
- Abstraction:: for details.
-
-`read_ee'
-`write_ee'
- Read or write the EEPROM. The functions are expected to be only
- called before reprogramming and the carrier should refuse them
- with `ENODEV' after reprogramming. The offset is expected to be
- within 8kB (the current size), but addresses up to 1MB are
- reserved to fit bigger I2C devices in the future. Carriers may
- offer access to other internal flash memories using these same
- methods: for example the SPEC driver may define that its carrier
- I2C memory is seen at offset 1M and the internal SPI flash is seen
- at offset 16M. This multiplexing of several flash memories in the
- same address space is carrier-specific and should only be used
- by a driver that has verified the `carrier_name' field.
-
-
-
-The GPIO Abstraction
-====================
-
-Support for GPIO pins in the fmc-bus environment is not very
-straightforward and deserves special discussion.
-
-While the general idea of a carrier-independent driver seems to fly,
-configuration of specific signals within the carrier needs at least
-some knowledge of the carrier itself. For this reason, the specific
-driver can request to configure carrier-specific GPIO pins, numbered
-from 0 to at most 4095. Configuration is performed by passing a
-pointer to an array of struct fmc_gpio items, as well as the length of
-the array. This is the data structure:
-
- struct fmc_gpio {
- char *carrier_name;
- int gpio;
- int _gpio; /* internal use by the carrier */
- int mode; /* GPIOF_DIR_OUT etc, from <linux/gpio.h> */
- int irqmode; /* IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW and so on */
- };
-
-By specifying a carrier_name for each pin, the driver may access
-different pins in different carriers. The gpio_config method is
-expected to return the number of pins successfully configured, ignoring
-requests for other carriers. However, if no pin is configured (because
-no structure at all refers to the current carrier_name), the operation
-returns an error so the caller will know that it is running under a
-yet-unsupported carrier.
-
-So, for example, a driver that has been developed and tested on both
-the SPEC and the SVEC may request configuration of two different GPIO
-pins, and expect one such configuration to succeed - if none succeeds
-it most likely means that the current carrier is a still-unknown one.
-
-If, however, your GPIO pin has a specific known role, you can pass a
-special number in the gpio field, using one of the following macros:
-
- #define FMC_GPIO_RAW(x) (x) /* 4096 of them */
- #define FMC_GPIO_IRQ(x) ((x) + 0x1000) /* 256 of them */
- #define FMC_GPIO_LED(x) ((x) + 0x1100) /* 256 of them */
- #define FMC_GPIO_KEY(x) ((x) + 0x1200) /* 256 of them */
- #define FMC_GPIO_TP(x) ((x) + 0x1300) /* 256 of them */
- #define FMC_GPIO_USER(x) ((x) + 0x1400) /* 256 of them */
-
-Use of virtual GPIO numbers (anything but FMC_GPIO_RAW) is allowed
-provided the carrier_name field in the data structure is left
-unspecified (NULL). Each carrier is responsible for providing a mapping
-between virtual and physical GPIO numbers. The carrier may then use the
-_gpio field to cache the result of this mapping.
-
-All carriers must map their I/O lines to the sets above starting from
-zero. The SPEC, for example, maps interrupt pins 0 and 1, and test
-points 0 through 3 (even if the test points on the PCB are called
-5,6,7,8).
-
-If, for example, a driver requires a free LED and a test point (for a
-scope probe to be plugged at some point during development) it may ask
-for FMC_GPIO_LED(0) and FMC_GPIO_TP(0). Each carrier will provide
-suitable GPIO pins. Clearly, the person running the drivers will know
-the order used by the specific carrier driver in assigning leds and
-testpoints, so to make a carrier-dependent use of the diagnostic tools.
-
-In theory, some form of autodetection should be possible: a driver like
-the wr-nic (which uses IRQ(1) on the SPEC card) should configure
-IRQ(0), make a test with software-generated interrupts and configure
-IRQ(1) if the test fails. This probing step should be used because even
-if the wr-nic gateware is known to use IRQ1 on the SPEC, the driver
-should be carrier-independent and thus use IRQ(0) as a first bet -
-actually, the knowledge that IRQ0 may fail is carrier-dependent
-information, but using it doesn't make the driver unsuitable for other
-carriers.
-
-The return value of gpio_config is defined as follows:
-
- * If no pin in the array can be used by the carrier, `-ENODEV'.
-
- * If at least one virtual GPIO number cannot be mapped, `-ENOENT'.
-
- * On success, 0 or positive. The value returned is the number of
- high input bits (if no input is configured, the value for success
- is 0).
-
-While I admit the procedure is not completely straightforward, it
-allows configuration, input and output with a single carrier operation.
-Given the typical use case of FMC devices, GPIO operations are not
-expected to ever by in hot paths, and GPIO access so fare has only been
-used to configure the interrupt pin, mode and polarity. Especially
-reading inputs is not expected to be common. If your device has GPIO
-capabilities in the hot path, you should consider using the kernel's
-GPIO mechanisms.

-fmc-chardev
-===========
-
-This is a simple generic driver, that allows user access by means of a
-character device (actually, one for each mezzanine it takes hold of).
-
-The char device is created as a misc device. Its name in /dev (as
-created by udev) is the same name as the underlying FMC device. Thus,
-the name can be a silly fmc-0000 look-alike if the device has no
-identifiers nor bus_id, a more specific fmc-0400 if the device has a
-bus-specific address but no associated name, or something like
-fdelay-0400 if the FMC core can rely on both a mezzanine name and a bus
-address.
-
-Currently the driver only supports read and write: you can lseek to the
-desired address and read or write a register.
-
-The driver assumes all registers are 32-bit in size, and only accepts a
-single read or write per system call. However, as a result of Unix read
-and write semantics, users can simply fread or fwrite bigger areas in
-order to dump or store bigger memory areas.
-
-There is currently no support for mmap, user-space interrupt management
-and DMA buffers. They may be added in later versions, if the need
-arises.
-
-The example below shows raw access to a SPEC card programmed with its
-golden FPGA file, that features an SDB structure at offset 256 - i.e.
-64 words. The mezzanine's EEPROM in this case is not programmed, so the
-default name is fmc-<bus><devfn>, and there are two cards in the system:

-fmc-write-eeprom
-================
-
-This module is designed to load a binary file from /lib/firmware and to
-write it to the internal EEPROM of the mezzanine card. This driver uses
-the `busid' generic parameter.
-
-Overwriting the EEPROM is not something you should do daily, and it is
-expected to only happen during manufacturing. For this reason, the
-module makes it unlikely for the random user to change a working EEPROM.
-
-However, since the EEPROM may include application-specific information
-other than the identification, later versions of this packages added
-write-support through sysfs. See *note Accessing the EEPROM::.
-
-To avoid damaging the EEPROM content, the module takes the following
-measures:
-
- * It accepts a `file=' argument (within /lib/firmware) and if no
- such argument is received, it doesn't write anything to EEPROM
- (i.e. there is no default file name).
-
- * If the file name ends with `.bin' it is written verbatim starting
- at offset 0.
-
- * If the file name ends with `.tlv' it is interpreted as
- type-length-value (i.e., it allows writev(2)-like operation).
-
- * If the file name doesn't match any of the patterns above, it is
- ignored and no write is performed.
-
- * Only cards listed with `busid=' are written to. If no busid is
- specified, no programming is done (and the probe function of the
- driver will fail).
-
-
-Each TLV tuple is formatted in this way: the header is 5 bytes,
-followed by data. The first byte is `w' for write, the next two bytes
-represent the address, in little-endian byte order, and the next two
-represent the data length, in little-endian order. The length does not
-include the header (it is the actual number of bytes to be written).
-
-This is a real example: that writes 5 bytes at position 0x110:
-
- spusa.root# od -t x1 -Ax /lib/firmware/try.tlv
- 000000 77 10 01 05 00 30 31 32 33 34

- [19983.391498] spec 0000:03:00.0: write 5 bytes at 0x0110
- [19983.414615] spec 0000:03:00.0: write_eeprom: success
-
-Please note that you'll most likely want to use SDBFS to build your
-EEPROM image, at least if your mezzanines are being used in the White
-Rabbit environment. For this reason the TLV format is not expected to
-be used much and is not expected to be developed further.
-
-If you want to try reflashing fake EEPROM devices, you can use the
-fmc-fakedev.ko module (see *note fmc-fakedev::). Whenever you change
-the image starting at offset 0, it will deregister and register again
-after two seconds. Please note, however, that if fmc-write-eeprom is
-still loaded, the system will associate it to the new device, which
-will be reprogrammed and thus will be unloaded after two seconds. The
-following example removes the module after it reflashed fakedev the
-first time.

-FMC Identification
-******************
-
-The FMC standard requires every compliant mezzanine to carry
-identification information in an I2C EEPROM. The information must be
-laid out according to the "IPMI Platform Management FRU Information",
-where IPMI is a lie I'd better not expand, and FRU means "Field
-Replaceable Unit".
-
-The FRU information is an intricate unreadable binary blob that must
-live at offset 0 of the EEPROM, and typically extends for a few hundred
-bytes. The standard allows the application to use all the remaining
-storage area of the EEPROM as it wants.
-
-This chapter explains how to create your own EEPROM image and how to
-write it in your mezzanine, as well as how devices and drivers are
-paired at run time. EEPROM programming uses tools that are part of this
-package and SDB (part of the fpga-config-space package).
-
-The first sections are only interesting for manufacturers who need to
-write the EEPROM. If you are just a software developer writing an FMC
-device or driver, you may jump straight to *note SDB Support::.
-
-
-Building the FRU Structure
-==========================
-
-If you want to know the internals of the FRU structure and despair, you
-can retrieve the document from
-`http://download.intel.com/design/servers/ipmi/FRU1011.pdf' . The
-standard is awful and difficult without reason, so we only support the
-minimum mandatory subset - we create a simple structure and parse it
-back at run time, but we are not able to either generate or parse more
-arcane features like non-english languages and 6-bit text. If you need
-more items of the FRU standard for your boards, please submit patches.
-
-This package includes the Python script that Matthieu Cattin wrote to
-generate the FRU binary blob, based on an helper libipmi by Manohar
-Vanga and Matthieu himself. I changed the test script to receive
-parameters from the command line or from the environment (the command
-line takes precedence)
-
-To make a long story short, in order to build a standard-compliant
-binary file to be burned in your EEPROM, you need the following items:
-
- Environment Opt Official Name Default
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- FRU_VENDOR -v "Board Manufacturer" fmc-example
- FRU_NAME -n "Board Product Name" mezzanine
- FRU_SERIAL -s `Board Serial Number" 0001
- FRU_PART -p "Board Part Number" sample-part
- FRU_OUTPUT -o not applicable /dev/stdout
-
-The "Official Name" above is what you find in the FRU official
-documentation, chapter 11, page 7 ("Board Info Area Format"). The
-output option is used to save the generated binary to a specific file
-name instead of stdout.
-
-You can pass the items to the FRU generator either in the environment
-or on the command line. This package has currently no support for
-specifying power consumption or such stuff, but I plan to add it as
-soon as I find some time for that.
-
-FIXME: consumption etc for FRU are here or in PTS?
-
-The following example creates a binary image for a specific board:
-
- ./tools/fru-generator -v CERN -n FmcAdc100m14b4cha \
- -s HCCFFIA___-CR000003 -p EDA-02063-V5-0 > eeprom.bin
-
-The following example shows a script that builds several binary EEPROM
-images for a series of boards, changing the serial number for each of
-them. The script uses a mix of environment variables and command line
-options, and uses the same string patterns shown above.
-
- #!/bin/sh
-
- export FRU_VENDOR="CERN"
- export FRU_NAME="FmcAdc100m14b4cha"
- export FRU_PART="EDA-02063-V5-0"
-
- serial="HCCFFIA___-CR"
-
- for number in $(seq 1 50); do
- # build number-string "ns"
- ns="$(printf %06d $number)"
- ./fru-generator -s "${serial}${ns}" > eeprom-${ns}.bin
- done
-
-
-Using SDB-FS in the EEPROM
-==========================
-
-If you want to use SDB as a filesystem in the EEPROM device within the
-mezzanine, you should create one such filesystem using gensdbfs, from
-the fpga-config-space package on OHWR.
-
-By using an SBD filesystem you can cluster several files in a single
-EEPROM, so both the host system and a soft-core running in the FPGA (if
-any) can access extra production-time information.
-
-We chose to use SDB as a storage filesystem because the format is very
-simple, and both the host system and the soft-core will likely already
-include support code for such format. The SDB library offered by the
-fpga-config-space is less than 1kB under LM32, so it proves quite up to
-the task.
-
-The SDB entry point (which acts as a directory listing) cannot live at
-offset zero in the flash device, because the FRU information must live
-there. To avoid wasting precious storage space while still allowing
-for more-than-minimal FRU structures, the fmc.ko will look for the SDB
-record at address 256, 512 and 1024.
-
-In order to generate the complete EEPROM image you'll need a
-configuration file for gensdbfs: you tell the program where to place
-the sdb entry point, and you must force the FRU data file to be placed
-at the beginning of the storage device. If needed, you can also place
-other files at a special offset (we sometimes do it for backward
-compatibility with drivers we wrote before implementing SDB for flash
-memory).
-
-The directory tools/sdbfs of this package includes a well-commented
-example that you may want to use as a starting point (the comments are
-in the file called -SDB-CONFIG-). Reading documentation for gensdbfs
-is a suggested first step anyways.
-
-This package (generic FMC bus support) only accesses two files in the
-EEPROM: the FRU information, at offset zero, with a suggested filename
-of IPMI-FRU and the short name for the mezzanine, in a file called
-name. The IPMI-FRU name is not mandatory, but a strongly suggested
-choice; the name filename is mandatory, because this is the preferred
-short name used by the FMC core. For example, a name of "fdelay" may
-supplement a Product Name like "FmcDelay1ns4cha" - exactly as
-demonstrated in `tools/sdbfs'.
-
-Note: SDB access to flash memory is not yet supported, so the short
-name currently in use is just the "Product Name" FRU string.
-
-The example in tools/sdbfs includes an extra file, that is needed by
-the fine-delay driver, and must live at a known address of 0x1800. By
-running gensdbfs on that directory you can output your binary EEPROM
-image (here below spusa$ is the shell prompt):
-
- spusa$ ../fru-generator -v CERN -n FmcDelay1ns4cha -s proto-0 \

-FMC Driver
-**********
-
-An FMC driver is concerned with the specific mezzanine and associated
-gateware. As such, it is expected to be independent of the carrier
-being used: it will perform I/O accesses only by means of
-carrier-provided functions.
-
-The matching between device and driver is based on the content of the
-EEPROM (as mandated by the FMC standard) or by the actual cores
-configured in the FPGA; the latter technique is used when the FPGA is
-already programmed when the device is registered to the bus core.
-
-In some special cases it is possible for a driver to directly access
-FPGA registers, by means of the `fpga_base' field of the device
-structure. This may be needed for high-bandwidth peripherals like fast
-ADC cards. If the device module registered a remote device (for example
-by means of Etherbone), the `fpga_base' pointer will be NULL.
-Therefore, drivers must be ready to deal with NULL base pointers, and
-fail gracefully. Most driver, however, are not expected to access the
-pointer directly but run fmc_readl and fmc_writel instead, which will
-work in any case.
-
-In even more special cases, the driver may access carrier-specific
-functionality: the `carrier_name' string allows the driver to check
-which is the current carrier and make use of the `carrier_data'
-pointer. We chose to use carrier names rather than numeric identifiers
-for greater flexibility, but also to avoid a central registry within
-the `fmc.h' file - we hope other users will exploit our framework with
-their own carriers. An example use of carrier names is in GPIO setup
-(see *note The GPIO Abstraction::), although the name match is not
-expected to be performed by the driver. If you depend on specific
-carriers, please check the carrier name and fail gracefully if your
-driver finds it is running in a yet-unknown-to-it environment.
-
-
-ID Table
-========
-
-Like most other Linux drivers, and FMC driver must list all the devices
-which it is able to drive. This is usually done by means of a device
-table, but in FMC we can match hardware based either on the contents of
-their EEPROM or on the actual FPGA cores that can be enumerated.
-Therefore, we have two tables of identifiers.
-
-Matching of FRU information depends on two names, the manufacturer (or
-vendor) and the device (see *note FMC Identification::); for
-flexibility during production (i.e. before writing to the EEPROM) the
-bus supports a catch-all driver that specifies NULL strings. For this
-reason, the table is specified as pointer-and-length, not a a
-null-terminated array - the entry with NULL names can be a valid entry.
-
-Matching on FPGA cores depends on two numeric fields: the 64-bit vendor
-number and the 32-bit device number. Support for matching based on
-class is not yet implemented. Each device is expected to be uniquely
-identified by an array of cores (it matches if all of the cores are
-instantiated), and for consistency the list is passed as
-pointer-and-length. Several similar devices can be driven by the same
-driver, and thus the driver specifies and array of such arrays.
-
-The complete set of involved data structures is thus the following:
-
- struct fmc_fru_id { char *manufacturer; char *product_name; };
- struct fmc_sdb_one_id { uint64_t vendor; uint32_t device; };
- struct fmc_sdb_id { struct fmc_sdb_one_id *cores; int cores_nr; };
-
- struct fmc_device_id {
- struct fmc_fru_id *fru_id; int fru_id_nr;
- struct fmc_sdb_id *sdb_id; int sdb_id_nr;
- };
-
-A better reference, with full explanation, is the <linux/fmc.h> header.
-
-
-Module Parameters
-=================
-
-Most of the FMC drivers need the same set of kernel parameters. This
-package includes support to implement common parameters by means of
-fields in the `fmc_driver' structure and simple macro definitions.
-
-The parameters are carrier-specific, in that they rely on the busid
-concept, that varies among carriers. For the SPEC, the identifier is a
-PCI bus and devfn number, 16 bits wide in total; drivers for other
-carriers will most likely offer something similar but not identical,
-and some code duplication is unavoidable.
-
-This is the list of parameters that are common to several modules to
-see how they are actually used, please look at spec-trivial.c.
-
-`busid='
- This is an array of integers, listing carrier-specific
- identification numbers. For PIC, for example, `0x0400' represents
- bus 4, slot 0. If any such ID is specified, the driver will only
- accept to drive cards that appear in the list (even if the FMC ID
- matches). This is accomplished by the validate carrier method.
-
-`gateware='
- The argument is an array of strings. If no busid= is specified,
- the first string of gateware= is used for all cards; otherwise the
- identifiers and gateware names are paired one by one, in the order
- specified.
-
-`show_sdb='
- For modules supporting it, this parameter asks to show the SDB
- internal structure by means of kernel messages. It is disabled by
- default because those lines tend to hide more important messages,
- if you look at the system console while loading the drivers.
- Note: the parameter is being obsoleted, because fmc.ko itself now
- supports dump_sdb= that applies to every client driver.
-
-
-For example, if you are using the trivial driver to load two different
-gateware files to two different cards, you can use the following
-parameters to load different binaries to the cards, after looking up
-the PCI identifiers. This has been tested with a SPEC carrier.
-
- insmod fmc-trivial.ko \
- busid=0x0200,0x0400 \
- gateware=fmc/fine-delay.bin,fmc/simple-dio.bin
-
-Please note that not all sub-modules support all of those parameters.
-You can use modinfo to check what is supported by each module.

-Module Parameters in fmc.ko
-***************************
-
-The core driver receives two module parameters, meant to help debugging
-client modules. Both parameters can be modified by writing to
-/sys/module/fmc/parameters/, because they are used when client drivers
-are devices are registered, not when fmc.ko is loaded.
-
-`dump_eeprom='
- If not zero, the parameter asks the bus controller to dump the
- EEPROM of any device that is registered, using printk.
-
-`dump_sdb='
- If not zero, the parameter prints the SDB tree of every FPGA it is
- loaded by fmc_reprogram(). If greater than one, it asks to dump
- the binary content of SDB records. This currently only dumps the
- top-level SDB array, though.
-

-usually empty and all bits are one or zero. This is an example of the

Description
-----------
There are 3 functions in LM3556, Flash, Torch and Indicator.
-FLASH MODE
+Flash Mode
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
In Flash Mode, the LED current source(LED) provides 16 target current levels
from 93.75 mA to 1500 mA.The Flash currents are adjusted via the CURRENT
CONTROL REGISTER(0x09).Flash mode is activated by the ENABLE REGISTER(0x0A),
or by pulling the STROBE pin HIGH.
+
LM3556 Flash can be controlled through sys/class/leds/flash/brightness file
+
* if STROBE pin is enabled, below example control brightness only, and
-ON / OFF will be controlled by STROBE pin.
+ ON / OFF will be controlled by STROBE pin.
Flash Example:
-OFF : #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
-93.75 mA: #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
-... .....
-1500 mA: #echo 16 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
-TORCH MODE
+OFF::
+
+ #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
+
+93.75 mA::
+
+ #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
+
+...
+
+1500 mA::
+
+ #echo 16 > sys/class/leds/flash/brightness
+
+Torch Mode
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
In Torch Mode, the current source(LED) is programmed via the CURRENT CONTROL
REGISTER(0x09).Torch Mode is activated by the ENABLE REGISTER(0x0A) or by the
hardware TORCH input.
+
LM3556 torch can be controlled through sys/class/leds/torch/brightness file.
* if TORCH pin is enabled, below example control brightness only,
and ON / OFF will be controlled by TORCH pin.
Torch Example:
-OFF : #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
-46.88 mA: #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
-... .....
-375 mA : #echo 8 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
-INDICATOR MODE
+OFF::
+
+ #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
+
+46.88 mA::
+
+ #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
+
+...
+
+375 mA::
+
+ #echo 8 > sys/class/leds/torch/brightness
+
+Indicator Mode
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
Indicator pattern can be set through sys/class/leds/indicator/pattern file,
and 4 patterns are pre-defined in indicator_pattern array.
+
According to N-lank, Pulse time and N Period values, different pattern wiill
be generated.If you want new patterns for your own device, change
indicator_pattern array with your own values and INDIC_PATTERN_SIZE.
+
Please refer datasheet for more detail about N-Blank, Pulse time and N Period.
Indicator pattern example:
-pattern 0: #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/indicator/pattern
-....
-pattern 3: #echo 3 > sys/class/leds/indicator/pattern
+
+pattern 0::
+
+ #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/indicator/pattern
+
+...
+
+pattern 3::
+
+ #echo 3 > sys/class/leds/indicator/pattern
Indicator brightness can be controlled through
sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness file.
Example:
-OFF : #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness
-5.86 mA : #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness
-........
-46.875mA : #echo 8 > sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness
+
+OFF::
+
+ #echo 0 > sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness
+
+5.86 mA::
+
+ #echo 1 > sys/class/leds/indicator/brightness
+
+...

+-----------
+LP5523 can drive up to 9 channels. Leds can be controlled directly via
+the led class control interface.
+The name of each channel is configurable in the platform data - name and label.
+There are three options to make the channel name.
+
+a) Define the 'name' in the platform data
+
+To make specific channel name, then use 'name' platform data.
+
+- /sys/class/leds/R1 (name: 'R1')
+- /sys/class/leds/B1 (name: 'B1')
+
+b) Use the 'label' with no 'name' field
+
+For one device name with channel number, then use 'label'.
+- /sys/class/leds/RGB:channelN (label: 'RGB', N: 0 ~ 8)
+
+c) Default
+
+If both fields are NULL, 'lp5523' is used by default.

+
+LP5523 has the internal program memory for running various LED patterns.

+
+LP5523 has three master faders. If a channel is mapped to one of
+the master faders, its output is dimmed based on the value of the master
+fader.
+
+For example::
+
+ echo "123000123" > master_fader_leds
+
+creates the following channel-fader mappings::
+
+ channel 0,6 to master_fader1
+ channel 1,7 to master_fader2
+ channel 2,8 to master_fader3
+
+Then, to have 25% of the original output on channel 0,6::
+
+ echo 64 > master_fader1
+
+To have 0% of the original output (i.e. no output) channel 1,7::
+
+ echo 0 > master_fader2
+
+To have 100% of the original output (i.e. no dimming) on channel 2,8::
+
+ echo 255 > master_fader3
+
+To clear all master fader controls::
+
+ echo "000000000" > master_fader_leds
+
+Selftest uses always the current from the platform data.
+

-Kernel driver for lp5523
-========================
-
-* National Semiconductor LP5523 led driver chip
-* Datasheet: http://www.national.com/pf/LP/LP5523.html
-
-Authors: Mathias Nyman, Yuri Zaporozhets, Samu Onkalo
-Contact: Samu Onkalo (samu.p.onkalo-at-nokia.com)
-
-Description
------------
-LP5523 can drive up to 9 channels. Leds can be controlled directly via
-the led class control interface.
-The name of each channel is configurable in the platform data - name and label.
-There are three options to make the channel name.
-
-a) Define the 'name' in the platform data
-To make specific channel name, then use 'name' platform data.
-/sys/class/leds/R1 (name: 'R1')
-/sys/class/leds/B1 (name: 'B1')
-
-b) Use the 'label' with no 'name' field
-For one device name with channel number, then use 'label'.
-/sys/class/leds/RGB:channelN (label: 'RGB', N: 0 ~ 8)
-
-c) Default
-If both fields are NULL, 'lp5523' is used by default.
-/sys/class/leds/lp5523:channelN (N: 0 ~ 8)
-
-LP5523 has the internal program memory for running various LED patterns.
-There are two ways to run LED patterns.
-
-1) Legacy interface - enginex_mode, enginex_load and enginex_leds
- Control interface for the engines:
- x is 1 .. 3
- enginex_mode : disabled, load, run
- enginex_load : microcode load
- enginex_leds : led mux control
-
- cd /sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/device
- echo "load" > engine3_mode
- echo "9d80400004ff05ff437f0000" > engine3_load
- echo "111111111" > engine3_leds
- echo "run" > engine3_mode
-
- To stop the engine:
- echo "disabled" > engine3_mode
-
-2) Firmware interface - LP55xx common interface
- For the details, please refer to 'firmware' section in leds-lp55xx.txt
-
-LP5523 has three master faders. If a channel is mapped to one of
-the master faders, its output is dimmed based on the value of the master
-fader.
-
-For example,
-
- echo "123000123" > master_fader_leds
-
-creates the following channel-fader mappings:
-
- channel 0,6 to master_fader1
- channel 1,7 to master_fader2
- channel 2,8 to master_fader3
-
-Then, to have 25% of the original output on channel 0,6:
-
- echo 64 > master_fader1
-
-To have 0% of the original output (i.e. no output) channel 1,7:
-
- echo 0 > master_fader2
-
-To have 100% of the original output (i.e. no dimming) on channel 2,8:
-
- echo 255 > master_fader3
-
-To clear all master fader controls:
-
- echo "000000000" > master_fader_leds
-
-Selftest uses always the current from the platform data.
-
-Each channel contains led current settings.
-/sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/led_current - RW
-/sys/class/leds/lp5523:channel2/max_current - RO
-Format: 10x mA i.e 10 means 1.0 mA
-
-Example platform data:
-
-Note - chan_nr can have values between 0 and 8.

+Kernel driver for lp5562
+========================
+
+* TI LP5562 LED Driver
+
+Author: Milo(Woogyom) Kim <milo.kim@ti.com>
+
+Description
+===========
+
+ LP5562 can drive up to 4 channels. R/G/B and White.
+ LEDs can be controlled directly via the led class control interface.
+
+ All four channels can be also controlled using the engine micro programs.
+ LP5562 has the internal program memory for running various LED patterns.
+ For the details, please refer to 'firmware' section in leds-lp55xx.txt
+
+Device attribute
+================
+
+engine_mux
+ 3 Engines are allocated in LP5562, but the number of channel is 4.
+ Therefore each channel should be mapped to the engine number.
+
+ Value: RGB or W
+
+ This attribute is used for programming LED data with the firmware interface.
+ Unlike the LP5521/LP5523/55231, LP5562 has unique feature for the engine mux,
+ so additional sysfs is required
+
+ LED Map
+
+ ===== === ===============================
+ Red ... Engine 1 (fixed)
+ Green ... Engine 2 (fixed)
+ Blue ... Engine 3 (fixed)
+ White ... Engine 1 or 2 or 3 (selective)
+ ===== === ===============================
+
+How to load the program data using engine_mux
+=============================================
+
+ Before loading the LP5562 program data, engine_mux should be written between
+ the engine selection and loading the firmware.
+ Engine mux has two different mode, RGB and W.
+ RGB is used for loading RGB program data, W is used for W program data.
+
+ For example, run blinking green channel pattern::
+
+ echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine # 2 is for green channel
+ echo "RGB" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine_mux # engine mux for RGB
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading
+ echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+ To run a blinking white pattern::
+
+ echo 1 or 2 or 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ echo "W" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine_mux
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading
+ echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5562/loading
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+How to load the predefined patterns
+===================================
+
+ Please refer to 'leds-lp55xx.txt"
+
+Setting Current of Each Channel
+===============================
+
+ Like LP5521 and LP5523/55231, LP5562 provides LED current settings.
+ The 'led_current' and 'max_current' are used.
+

+ .setup_resources = lp5562_setup,
+ .release_resources = lp5562_release,
+ .enable = lp5562_enable,
+ };
+
+To configure the platform specific data, lp55xx_platform_data structure is used
+
+
+If the current is set to 0 in the platform data, that channel is
+disabled and it is not visible in the sysfs.

+LP5521/LP5523/LP55231/LP5562/LP8501 Common Driver
+=================================================
+
+Authors: Milo(Woogyom) Kim <milo.kim@ti.com>
+
+Description
+-----------
+LP5521, LP5523/55231, LP5562 and LP8501 have common features as below.
+
+ Register access via the I2C
+ Device initialization/deinitialization
+ Create LED class devices for multiple output channels
+ Device attributes for user-space interface
+ Program memory for running LED patterns
+
+The LP55xx common driver provides these features using exported functions.
+
+ lp55xx_init_device() / lp55xx_deinit_device()
+ lp55xx_register_leds() / lp55xx_unregister_leds()
+ lp55xx_regsister_sysfs() / lp55xx_unregister_sysfs()
+
+( Driver Structure Data )
+
+In lp55xx common driver, two different data structure is used.
+
+* lp55xx_led
+ control multi output LED channels such as led current, channel index.
+* lp55xx_chip
+ general chip control such like the I2C and platform data.
+
+For example, LP5521 has maximum 3 LED channels.
+LP5523/55231 has 9 output channels::
+
+ lp55xx_chip for LP5521 ... lp55xx_led #1
+ lp55xx_led #2
+ lp55xx_led #3
+
+ lp55xx_chip for LP5523 ... lp55xx_led #1
+ lp55xx_led #2
+ .
+ .
+ lp55xx_led #9
+
+( Chip Dependent Code )
+
+To support device specific configurations, special structure
+'lpxx_device_config' is used.
+
+ - Maximum number of channels
+ - Reset command, chip enable command
+ - Chip specific initialization
+ - Brightness control register access
+ - Setting LED output current
+ - Program memory address access for running patterns
+ - Additional device specific attributes
+
+( Firmware Interface )
+
+LP55xx family devices have the internal program memory for running
+various LED patterns.
+
+This pattern data is saved as a file in the user-land or
+hex byte string is written into the memory through the I2C.
+
+LP55xx common driver supports the firmware interface.
+
+LP55xx chips have three program engines.
+
+To load and run the pattern, the programming sequence is following.
+
+ (1) Select an engine number (1/2/3)
+ (2) Mode change to load
+ (3) Write pattern data into selected area
+ (4) Mode change to run
+
+The LP55xx common driver provides simple interfaces as below.
+
+select_engine:
+ Select which engine is used for running program
+run_engine:
+ Start program which is loaded via the firmware interface
+firmware:
+ Load program data
+
+In case of LP5523, one more command is required, 'enginex_leds'.
+It is used for selecting LED output(s) at each engine number.
+In more details, please refer to 'leds-lp5523.txt'.
+
+For example, run blinking pattern in engine #1 of LP5521::
+
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
+ echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+For example, run blinking pattern in engine #3 of LP55231
+
+Two LEDs are configured as pattern output channels::
+
+ echo 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading
+ echo "9d0740ff7e0040007e00a0010000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading
+ echo "000001100" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine3_leds
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+To start blinking patterns in engine #2 and #3 simultaneously::
+
+ for idx in 2 3
+ do
+ echo $idx > /sys/class/leds/red/device/select_engine
+ sleep 0.1
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
+ echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
+ done
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/red/device/run_engine
+
+Here is another example for LP5523.
+
+Full LED strings are selected by 'engine2_leds'::
+
+ echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading
+ echo "9d80400004ff05ff437f0000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading
+ echo "111111111" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine2_leds
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+As soon as 'loading' is set to 0, registered callback is called.
+Inside the callback, the selected engine is loaded and memory is updated.
+To run programmed pattern, 'run_engine' attribute should be enabled.
+
+The pattern sequence of LP8501 is similar to LP5523.
+
+However pattern data is specific.
+
+Ex 1) Engine 1 is used::
+
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ echo "9d0140ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
+
+Ex 2) Engine 2 and 3 are used at the same time::
+
+ echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ sleep 1
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ echo "9d0140ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ sleep 1
+ echo 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
+ sleep 1
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ echo "9d0340ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
+ echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
+ sleep 1
+ echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/d1/device/run_engine
+
+( 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' )
+
+The sequence of running the program data is common.
+
+But each device has own specific register addresses for commands.
+
+To support this, 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' are configurable in each driver.
+
+run_engine:
+ Control the selected engine
+firmware_cb:
+ The callback function after loading the firmware is done.
+
+ Chip specific commands for loading and updating program memory.
+
+( Predefined pattern data )
+
+Without the firmware interface, LP55xx driver provides another method for
+loading a LED pattern. That is 'predefined' pattern.
+
+A predefined pattern is defined in the platform data and load it(or them)
+via the sysfs if needed.
+
+To use the predefined pattern concept, 'patterns' and 'num_patterns' should be
+configured.
+
+Example of predefined pattern data::
+
+ /* mode_1: blinking data */
+ static const u8 mode_1[] = {
+ 0x40, 0x00, 0x60, 0x00, 0x40, 0xFF, 0x60, 0x00,
+ };
+
+ /* mode_2: always on */
+ static const u8 mode_2[] = { 0x40, 0xFF, };
+
+ struct lp55xx_predef_pattern board_led_patterns[] = {
+ {
+ .r = mode_1,
+ .size_r = ARRAY_SIZE(mode_1),
+ },
+ {
+ .b = mode_2,
+ .size_b = ARRAY_SIZE(mode_2),
+ },
+ }
+
+ struct lp55xx_platform_data lp5562_pdata = {
+ ...
+ .patterns = board_led_patterns,
+ .num_patterns = ARRAY_SIZE(board_led_patterns),
+ };
+
+Then, mode_1 and mode_2 can be run via through the sysfs::
+
+ echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern # red blinking LED pattern
+ echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern # blue LED always on
+
+To stop running pattern::
+
+ echo 0 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern

-( Chip Dependent Code )
-
-To support device specific configurations, special structure
-'lpxx_device_config' is used.
-
- Maximum number of channels
- Reset command, chip enable command
- Chip specific initialization
- Brightness control register access
- Setting LED output current
- Program memory address access for running patterns
- Additional device specific attributes
-
-( Firmware Interface )
-
-LP55xx family devices have the internal program memory for running
-various LED patterns.
-This pattern data is saved as a file in the user-land or
-hex byte string is written into the memory through the I2C.
-LP55xx common driver supports the firmware interface.
-
-LP55xx chips have three program engines.
-To load and run the pattern, the programming sequence is following.
- (1) Select an engine number (1/2/3)
- (2) Mode change to load
- (3) Write pattern data into selected area
- (4) Mode change to run
-
-The LP55xx common driver provides simple interfaces as below.
-select_engine : Select which engine is used for running program
-run_engine : Start program which is loaded via the firmware interface
-firmware : Load program data
-
-In case of LP5523, one more command is required, 'enginex_leds'.
-It is used for selecting LED output(s) at each engine number.
-In more details, please refer to 'leds-lp5523.txt'.
-
-For example, run blinking pattern in engine #1 of LP5521
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
-echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
-
-For example, run blinking pattern in engine #3 of LP55231
-Two LEDs are configured as pattern output channels.
-echo 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading
-echo "9d0740ff7e0040007e00a0010000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp55231/loading
-echo "000001100" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine3_leds
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
-
-To start blinking patterns in engine #2 and #3 simultaneously,
-for idx in 2 3
-do
- echo $idx > /sys/class/leds/red/device/select_engine
- sleep 0.1
- echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
- echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data
- echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
-done
-echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/red/device/run_engine
-
-Here is another example for LP5523.
-Full LED strings are selected by 'engine2_leds'.
-echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading
-echo "9d80400004ff05ff437f0000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5523/loading
-echo "111111111" > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/engine2_leds
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
-
-As soon as 'loading' is set to 0, registered callback is called.
-Inside the callback, the selected engine is loaded and memory is updated.
-To run programmed pattern, 'run_engine' attribute should be enabled.
-
-The pattern sequence of LP8501 is similar to LP5523.
-However pattern data is specific.
-Ex 1) Engine 1 is used
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-echo "9d0140ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
-
-Ex 2) Engine 2 and 3 are used at the same time
-echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-sleep 1
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-echo "9d0140ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-sleep 1
-echo 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
-sleep 1
-echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-echo "9d0340ff7e0040007e00a001c000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/data
-echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp8501/loading
-sleep 1
-echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/d1/device/run_engine
-
-( 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' )
-The sequence of running the program data is common.
-But each device has own specific register addresses for commands.
-To support this, 'run_engine' and 'firmware_cb' are configurable in each driver.
-run_engine : Control the selected engine
-firmware_cb : The callback function after loading the firmware is done.
- Chip specific commands for loading and updating program memory.
-
-( Predefined pattern data )
-
-Without the firmware interface, LP55xx driver provides another method for
-loading a LED pattern. That is 'predefined' pattern.
-A predefined pattern is defined in the platform data and load it(or them)
-via the sysfs if needed.
-To use the predefined pattern concept, 'patterns' and 'num_patterns' should be
-configured.
-
- Example of predefined pattern data:
-
- /* mode_1: blinking data */
- static const u8 mode_1[] = {
- 0x40, 0x00, 0x60, 0x00, 0x40, 0xFF, 0x60, 0x00,
- };
-
- /* mode_2: always on */
- static const u8 mode_2[] = { 0x40, 0xFF, };
-
- struct lp55xx_predef_pattern board_led_patterns[] = {
- {
- .r = mode_1,
- .size_r = ARRAY_SIZE(mode_1),
- },
- {
- .b = mode_2,
- .size_b = ARRAY_SIZE(mode_2),
- },
- }
-
- struct lp55xx_platform_data lp5562_pdata = {
- ...
- .patterns = board_led_patterns,
- .num_patterns = ARRAY_SIZE(board_led_patterns),
- };
-
-Then, mode_1 and mode_2 can be run via through the sysfs.
-
- echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern # red blinking LED pattern
- echo 2 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern # blue LED always on
-
-To stop running pattern,
- echo 0 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/led_pattern

+when the first instance of a lock-class is used after bootup the class
+gets registered, then all (subsequent) instances will be mapped to the
+class and hence their usages and dependecies will contribute to those of
+the class. A lock-class does not go away when a lock instance does, but
+it can be removed if the memory space of the lock class (static or
+dynamic) is reclaimed, this happens for example when a module is
+unloaded or a workqueue is destroyed.

Single-lock state rules:

+ <softirq-safe> or <softirq-unsafe>
- <hardirq-safe> and <hardirq-unsafe>

+This is because if a lock can be used in irq context (irq-safe) then it
+cannot be ever acquired with irq enabled (irq-unsafe). Otherwise, a
+deadlock may happen. For example, in the scenario that after this lock

+The Virtual Media Controller Driver (vimc)
+==========================================
+
+The vimc driver emulates complex video hardware using the V4L2 API and the Media
+API. It has a capture device and three subdevices: sensor, debayer and scaler.
+
+Topology
+--------
+
+The topology is hardcoded, although you could modify it in vimc-core and
+recompile the driver to achieve your own topology. This is the default topology:
+
+.. _vimc_topology_graph:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: vimc.dot
+ :alt: vimc.dot
+ :align: center
+
+ Media pipeline graph on vimc
+
+Configuring the topology
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Each subdevice will come with its default configuration (pixelformat, height,
+width, ...). One needs to configure the topology in order to match the
+configuration on each linked subdevice to stream frames through the pipeline.
+If the configuration doesn't match, the stream will fail. The ``v4l-utils``
+package is a bundle of user-space applications, that comes with ``media-ctl`` and
+``v4l2-ctl`` that can be used to configure the vimc configuration. This sequence
+of commands fits for the default topology:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Sensor A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
+ media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Debayer A":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
+ media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Sensor B":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
+ media-ctl -d platform:vimc -V '"Debayer B":0[fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/640x480]'
+ v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "RGB/YUV Capture" -v width=1920,height=1440
+ v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "Raw Capture 0" -v pixelformat=BA81
+ v4l2-ctl -z platform:vimc -d "Raw Capture 1" -v pixelformat=BA81
+
+Subdevices
+----------
+
+Subdevices define the behavior of an entity in the topology. Depending on the
+subdevice, the entity can have multiple pads of type source or sink.
+
+vimc-sensor:
+ Generates images in several formats using video test pattern generator.
+ Exposes:
+
+ * 1 Pad source
+
+vimc-debayer:
+ Transforms images in bayer format into a non-bayer format.
+ Exposes:
+
+ * 1 Pad sink
+ * 1 Pad source
+
+vimc-scaler:
+ Scale up the image by a factor of 3. E.g.: a 640x480 image becomes a
+ 1920x1440 image. (this value can be configured, see at
+ `Module options`_).
+ Exposes:
+
+ * 1 Pad sink
+ * 1 Pad source
+
+vimc-capture:
+ Exposes node /dev/videoX to allow userspace to capture the stream.
+ Exposes:
+
+ * 1 Pad sink
+ * 1 Pad source
+
+Module options
+---------------
+
+Vimc has a few module parameters to configure the driver. You should pass
+those arguments to each subdevice, not to the vimc module. For example::
+
+ vimc_subdevice.param=value
+
+* ``vimc_scaler.sca_mult=<unsigned int>``
+
+ Image size multiplier factor to be used to multiply both width and
+ height, so the image size will be ``sca_mult^2`` bigger than the
+ original one. Currently, only supports scaling up (the default value
+ is 3).
+
+* ``vimc_debayer.deb_mean_win_size=<unsigned int>``
+
+ Window size to calculate the mean. Note: the window size needs to be an
+ odd number, as the main pixel stays in the center of the window,
+ otherwise the next odd number is considered (the default value is 3).

-Register Set
-============
-The current architectures have the following registers.
-
-16 General propose registers, 32 bit on s/390 and 64 bit on z/Architecture,
-r0-r15 (or gpr0-gpr15), used for arithmetic and addressing.
-
-16 Control registers, 32 bit on s/390 and 64 bit on z/Architecture, cr0-cr15,
-kernel usage only, used for memory management, interrupt control, debugging
-control etc.
-
-16 Access registers (ar0-ar15), 32 bit on both s/390 and z/Architecture,
-normally not used by normal programs but potentially could be used as
-temporary storage. These registers have a 1:1 association with general
-purpose registers and are designed to be used in the so-called access
-register mode to select different address spaces.
-Access register 0 (and access register 1 on z/Architecture, which needs a
-64 bit pointer) is currently used by the pthread library as a pointer to
-the current running threads private area.
-
-16 64 bit floating point registers (fp0-fp15 ) IEEE & HFP floating
-point format compliant on G5 upwards & a Floating point control reg (FPC)
-4 64 bit registers (fp0,fp2,fp4 & fp6) HFP only on older machines.
-Note:
-Linux (currently) always uses IEEE & emulates G5 IEEE format on older machines,
-( provided the kernel is configured for this ).
-
-
-The PSW is the most important register on the machine it
-is 64 bit on s/390 & 128 bit on z/Architecture & serves the roles of
-a program counter (pc), condition code register,memory space designator.
-In IBM standard notation I am counting bit 0 as the MSB.
-It has several advantages over a normal program counter
-in that you can change address translation & program counter
-in a single instruction. To change address translation,
-e.g. switching address translation off requires that you
-have a logical=physical mapping for the address you are
-currently running at.

-Prefix Page(s)
---------------
-This per cpu memory area is too intimately tied to the processor not to mention.
-It exists between the real addresses 0-4096 on s/390 and between 0-8192 on
-z/Architecture and is exchanged with one page on s/390 or two pages on
-z/Architecture in absolute storage by the set prefix instruction during Linux
-startup.
-This page is mapped to a different prefix for each processor in an SMP
-configuration (assuming the OS designer is sane of course).
-Bytes 0-512 (200 hex) on s/390 and 0-512, 4096-4544, 4604-5119 currently on
-z/Architecture are used by the processor itself for holding such information
-as exception indications and entry points for exceptions.
-Bytes after 0xc00 hex are used by linux for per processor globals on s/390 and
-z/Architecture (there is a gap on z/Architecture currently between 0xc00 and
-0x1000, too, which is used by Linux).
-The closest thing to this on traditional architectures is the interrupt
-vector table. This is a good thing & does simplify some of the kernel coding
-however it means that we now cannot catch stray NULL pointers in the
-kernel without hard coded checks.

-Address Spaces on Intel Linux
-=============================
-
-The traditional Intel Linux is approximately mapped as follows forgive
-the ascii art.
-0xFFFFFFFF 4GB Himem *****************
- * *
- * Kernel Space *
- * *
- ***************** ****************
-User Space Himem * User Stack * * *
-(typically 0xC0000000 3GB ) ***************** * *

-0x00000000 ***************** ****************
-
-Now it is easy to see that on Intel it is quite easy to recognise a kernel
-address as being one greater than user space himem (in this case 0xC0000000),
-and addresses of less than this are the ones in the current running program on
-this processor (if an smp box).
-If using the virtual machine ( VM ) as a debugger it is quite difficult to
-know which user process is running as the address space you are looking at
-could be from any process in the run queue.
-
-The limitation of Intels addressing technique is that the linux
-kernel uses a very simple real address to virtual addressing technique
-of Real Address=Virtual Address-User Space Himem.
-This means that on Intel the kernel linux can typically only address
-Himem=0xFFFFFFFF-0xC0000000=1GB & this is all the RAM these machines
-can typically use.
-They can lower User Himem to 2GB or lower & thus be
-able to use 2GB of RAM however this shrinks the maximum size
-of User Space from 3GB to 2GB they have a no win limit of 4GB unless
-they go to 64 Bit.
-
-
-On 390 our limitations & strengths make us slightly different.
-For backward compatibility we are only allowed use 31 bits (2GB)
-of our 32 bit addresses, however, we use entirely separate address
-spaces for the user & kernel.
-
-This means we can support 2GB of non Extended RAM on s/390, & more
-with the Extended memory management swap device &
-currently 4TB of physical memory currently on z/Architecture.
-
-
-Address Spaces on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
-==================================================
-
-Our addressing scheme is basically as follows:
-
- Primary Space Home Space
-Himem 0x7fffffff 2GB on s/390 ***************** ****************
-currently 0x3ffffffffff (2^42)-1 * User Stack * * *
-on z/Architecture. ***************** * *

- * User Program * * *
- * Data BSS * * *
- * Text * * *
- * Sections * * *
-0x00000000 ***************** ****************
-
-This also means that we need to look at the PSW problem state bit and the
-addressing mode to decide whether we are looking at user or kernel space.
-
-User space runs in primary address mode (or access register mode within
-the vdso code).
-
-The kernel usually also runs in home space mode, however when accessing
-user space the kernel switches to primary or secondary address mode if
-the mvcos instruction is not available or if a compare-and-swap (futex)
-instruction on a user space address is performed.
-
-When also looking at the ASCE control registers, this means:
-
-User space:
-- runs in primary or access register mode
-- cr1 contains the user asce
-- cr7 contains the user asce
-- cr13 contains the kernel asce
-
-Kernel space:
-- runs in home space mode
-- cr1 contains the user or kernel asce
- -> the kernel asce is loaded when a uaccess requires primary or
- secondary address mode
-- cr7 contains the user or kernel asce, (changed with set_fs())
-- cr13 contains the kernel asce
-
-In case of uaccess the kernel changes to:
-- primary space mode in case of a uaccess (copy_to_user) and uses
- e.g. the mvcp instruction to access user space. However the kernel
- will stay in home space mode if the mvcos instruction is available
-- secondary space mode in case of futex atomic operations, so that the
- instructions come from primary address space and data from secondary
- space

-In case of KVM, the kernel runs in home space mode, but cr1 gets switched
-to contain the gmap asce before the SIE instruction gets executed. When
-the SIE instruction is finished, cr1 will be switched back to contain the

-Virtual Addresses on s/390 & z/Architecture
-===========================================
-
-A virtual address on s/390 is made up of 3 parts
-The SX (segment index, roughly corresponding to the PGD & PMD in Linux
-terminology) being bits 1-11.
-The PX (page index, corresponding to the page table entry (pte) in Linux
-terminology) being bits 12-19.
-The remaining bits BX (the byte index are the offset in the page )
-i.e. bits 20 to 31.
-
-On z/Architecture in linux we currently make up an address from 4 parts.
-The region index bits (RX) 0-32 we currently use bits 22-32
-The segment index (SX) being bits 33-43
-The page index (PX) being bits 44-51
-The byte index (BX) being bits 52-63
-
-Notes:
-1) s/390 has no PMD so the PMD is really the PGD also.
-A lot of this stuff is defined in pgtable.h.
-
-2) Also seeing as s/390's page indexes are only 1k in size
-(bits 12-19 x 4 bytes per pte ) we use 1 ( page 4k )
-to make the best use of memory by updating 4 segment indices
-entries each time we mess with a PMD & use offsets
-0,1024,2048 & 3072 in this page as for our segment indexes.
-On z/Architecture our page indexes are now 2k in size
-( bits 12-19 x 8 bytes per pte ) we do a similar trick
-but only mess with 2 segment indices each time we mess with
-a PMD.
-
-3) As z/Architecture supports up to a massive 5-level page table lookup we
-can only use 3 currently on Linux ( as this is all the generic kernel
-currently supports ) however this may change in future
-this allows us to access ( according to my sums )
-4TB of virtual storage per process i.e.
-4096*512(PTES)*1024(PMDS)*2048(PGD) = 4398046511104 bytes,
-enough for another 2 or 3 of years I think :-).
-to do this we use a region-third-table designation type in
-our address space control registers.
-
-
-The Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture Kernel Task Structure
-==========================================================
-Each process/thread under Linux for S390 has its own kernel task_struct
-defined in linux/include/linux/sched.h
-The S390 on initialisation & resuming of a process on a cpu sets
-the __LC_KERNEL_STACK variable in the spare prefix area for this cpu
-(which we use for per-processor globals).
-
-The kernel stack pointer is intimately tied with the task structure for
-each processor as follows.
-
- s/390
- ************************
- * 1 page kernel stack *
- * ( 4K ) *
- ************************
- * 1 page task_struct *
- * ( 4K ) *
-8K aligned ************************
-
- z/Architecture
- ************************
- * 2 page kernel stack *
- * ( 8K ) *
- ************************
- * 2 page task_struct *
- * ( 8K ) *
-16K aligned ************************
-
-What this means is that we don't need to dedicate any register or global
-variable to point to the current running process & can retrieve it with the
-following very simple construct for s/390 & one very similar for z/Architecture.
-
-static inline struct task_struct * get_current(void)
-{
- struct task_struct *current;
- __asm__("lhi %0,-8192\n\t"
- "nr %0,15"
- : "=r" (current) );
- return current;
-}
-
-i.e. just anding the current kernel stack pointer with the mask -8192.
-Thankfully because Linux doesn't have support for nested IO interrupts
-& our devices have large buffers can survive interrupts being shut for
-short amounts of time we don't need a separate stack for interrupts.
-
-
-
-
-Register Usage & Stackframes on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
-=================================================================
-Overview:
----------
-This is the code that gcc produces at the top & the bottom of
-each function. It usually is fairly consistent & similar from
-function to function & if you know its layout you can probably
-make some headway in finding the ultimate cause of a problem
-after a crash without a source level debugger.
-
-Note: To follow stackframes requires a knowledge of C or Pascal &
-limited knowledge of one assembly language.
-
-It should be noted that there are some differences between the
-s/390 and z/Architecture stack layouts as the z/Architecture stack layout
-didn't have to maintain compatibility with older linkage formats.
-
-Glossary:
----------
-alloca:
-This is a built in compiler function for runtime allocation
-of extra space on the callers stack which is obviously freed
-up on function exit ( e.g. the caller may choose to allocate nothing
-of a buffer of 4k if required for temporary purposes ), it generates
-very efficient code ( a few cycles ) when compared to alternatives
-like malloc.
-
-automatics: These are local variables on the stack,
-i.e they aren't in registers & they aren't static.
-
-back-chain:
-This is a pointer to the stack pointer before entering a
-framed functions ( see frameless function ) prologue got by
-dereferencing the address of the current stack pointer,
- i.e. got by accessing the 32 bit value at the stack pointers
-current location.
-
-base-pointer:
-This is a pointer to the back of the literal pool which
-is an area just behind each procedure used to store constants
-in each function.
-
-call-clobbered: The caller probably needs to save these registers if there
-is something of value in them, on the stack or elsewhere before making a
-call to another procedure so that it can restore it later.
-
-epilogue:
-The code generated by the compiler to return to the caller.
-
-frameless-function
-A frameless function in Linux for s390 & z/Architecture is one which doesn't
-need more than the register save area (96 bytes on s/390, 160 on z/Architecture)
-given to it by the caller.
-A frameless function never:
-1) Sets up a back chain.
-2) Calls alloca.
-3) Calls other normal functions
-4) Has automatics.
-
-GOT-pointer:
-This is a pointer to the global-offset-table in ELF
-( Executable Linkable Format, Linux'es most common executable format ),
-all globals & shared library objects are found using this pointer.
-
-lazy-binding
-ELF shared libraries are typically only loaded when routines in the shared
-library are actually first called at runtime. This is lazy binding.
-
-procedure-linkage-table
-This is a table found from the GOT which contains pointers to routines
-in other shared libraries which can't be called to by easier means.
-
-prologue:
-The code generated by the compiler to set up the stack frame.
-
-outgoing-args:
-This is extra area allocated on the stack of the calling function if the
-parameters for the callee's cannot all be put in registers, the same
-area can be reused by each function the caller calls.
-
-routine-descriptor:
-A COFF executable format based concept of a procedure reference
-actually being 8 bytes or more as opposed to a simple pointer to the routine.
-This is typically defined as follows
-Routine Descriptor offset 0=Pointer to Function
-Routine Descriptor offset 4=Pointer to Table of Contents
-The table of contents/TOC is roughly equivalent to a GOT pointer.
-& it means that shared libraries etc. can be shared between several
-environments each with their own TOC.
-
-
-static-chain: This is used in nested functions a concept adopted from pascal
-by gcc not used in ansi C or C++ ( although quite useful ), basically it
-is a pointer used to reference local variables of enclosing functions.
-You might come across this stuff once or twice in your lifetime.
-
-e.g.
-The function below should return 11 though gcc may get upset & toss warnings
-about unused variables.
-int FunctionA(int a)
-{
- int b;
- FunctionC(int c)
- {
- b=c+1;
- }
- FunctionC(10);
- return(b);
-}

-s/390 & z/Architecture Register usage
-=====================================
-r0 used by syscalls/assembly call-clobbered
-r1 used by syscalls/assembly call-clobbered
-r2 argument 0 / return value 0 call-clobbered
-r3 argument 1 / return value 1 (if long long) call-clobbered
-r4 argument 2 call-clobbered
-r5 argument 3 call-clobbered
-r6 argument 4 saved
-r7 pointer-to arguments 5 to ... saved
-r8 this & that saved
-r9 this & that saved
-r10 static-chain ( if nested function ) saved
-r11 frame-pointer ( if function used alloca ) saved
-r12 got-pointer saved
-r13 base-pointer saved
-r14 return-address saved
-r15 stack-pointer saved
-
-f0 argument 0 / return value ( float/double ) call-clobbered
-f2 argument 1 call-clobbered
-f4 z/Architecture argument 2 saved
-f6 z/Architecture argument 3 saved
-The remaining floating points
-f1,f3,f5 f7-f15 are call-clobbered.
-
-Notes:
-------
-1) The only requirement is that registers which are used
-by the callee are saved, e.g. the compiler is perfectly
-capable of using r11 for purposes other than a frame a
-frame pointer if a frame pointer is not needed.
-2) In functions with variable arguments e.g. printf the calling procedure
-is identical to one without variable arguments & the same number of
-parameters. However, the prologue of this function is somewhat more
-hairy owing to it having to move these parameters to the stack to
-get va_start, va_arg & va_end to work.
-3) Access registers are currently unused by gcc but are used in
-the kernel. Possibilities exist to use them at the moment for
-temporary storage but it isn't recommended.
-4) Only 4 of the floating point registers are used for
-parameter passing as older machines such as G3 only have only 4
-& it keeps the stack frame compatible with other compilers.
-However with IEEE floating point emulation under linux on the
-older machines you are free to use the other 12.
-5) A long long or double parameter cannot be have the
-first 4 bytes in a register & the second four bytes in the
-outgoing args area. It must be purely in the outgoing args
-area if crossing this boundary.
-6) Floating point parameters are mixed with outgoing args
-on the outgoing args area in the order the are passed in as parameters.
-7) Floating point arguments 2 & 3 are saved in the outgoing args area for
-z/Architecture
-
-

-Comments on the function test
------------------------------
-1) It didn't need to set up a pointer to the constant pool gpr13 as it is not
-used ( :-( ).
-2) This is a frameless function & no stack is bought.
-3) The compiler was clever enough to recognise that it could return the
-value in r2 as well as use it for the passed in parameter ( :-) ).
-4) The basr ( branch relative & save ) trick works as follows the instruction
-has a special case with r0,r0 with some instruction operands is understood as
-the literal value 0, some risc architectures also do this ). So now
-we are branching to the next address & the address new program counter is
-in r13,so now we subtract the size of the function prologue we have executed
-+ the size of the literal pool to get to the top of the literal pool

-Compiling programs for debugging on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
-====================================================================
--gdwarf-2 now works it should be considered the default debugging
-format for s/390 & z/Architecture as it is more reliable for debugging
-shared libraries, normal -g debugging works much better now
-Thanks to the IBM java compiler developers bug reports.
-
-This is typically done adding/appending the flags -g or -gdwarf-2 to the
-CFLAGS & LDFLAGS variables Makefile of the program concerned.
-
-If using gdb & you would like accurate displays of registers &
- stack traces compile without optimisation i.e make sure
-that there is no -O2 or similar on the CFLAGS line of the Makefile &
-the emitted gcc commands, obviously this will produce worse code
-( not advisable for shipment ) but it is an aid to the debugging process.
-
-This aids debugging because the compiler will copy parameters passed in
-in registers onto the stack so backtracing & looking at passed in
-parameters will work, however some larger programs which use inline functions
-will not compile without optimisation.
-
-Debugging with optimisation has since much improved after fixing
-some bugs, please make sure you are using gdb-5.0 or later developed
-after Nov'2000.
-
-
-
-Debugging under VM
-==================
-
-Notes
------
-Addresses & values in the VM debugger are always hex never decimal
-Address ranges are of the format <HexValue1>-<HexValue2> or
-<HexValue1>.<HexValue2>
-For example, the address range 0x2000 to 0x3000 can be described as 2000-3000
-or 2000.1000
-
-The VM Debugger is case insensitive.
-
-VM's strengths are usually other debuggers weaknesses you can get at any
-resource no matter how sensitive e.g. memory management resources, change
-address translation in the PSW. For kernel hacking you will reap dividends if
-you get good at it.
-
-The VM Debugger displays operators but not operands, and also the debugger
-displays useful information on the same line as the author of the code probably
-felt that it was a good idea not to go over the 80 columns on the screen.
-This isn't as unintuitive as it may seem as the s/390 instructions are easy to
-decode mentally and you can make a good guess at a lot of them as all the
-operands are nibble (half byte aligned).
-So if you have an objdump listing by hand, it is quite easy to follow, and if
-you don't have an objdump listing keep a copy of the s/390 Reference Summary
-or alternatively the s/390 principles of operation next to you.
-e.g. even I can guess that
-0001AFF8' LR 180F CC 0
-is a ( load register ) lr r0,r15
-
-Also it is very easy to tell the length of a 390 instruction from the 2 most
-significant bits in the instruction (not that this info is really useful except
-if you are trying to make sense of a hexdump of code).
-Here is a table
-Bits Instruction Length
-------------------------------------------
-00 2 Bytes
-01 4 Bytes
-10 4 Bytes
-11 6 Bytes
-
-The debugger also displays other useful info on the same line such as the
-addresses being operated on destination addresses of branches & condition codes.
-e.g.
-00019736' AHI A7DAFF0E CC 1
-000198BA' BRC A7840004 -> 000198C2' CC 0
-000198CE' STM 900EF068 >> 0FA95E78 CC 2
-
-
-
-Useful VM debugger commands
----------------------------
-
-I suppose I'd better mention this before I start
-to list the current active traces do
-Q TR
-there can be a maximum of 255 of these per set
-( more about trace sets later ).
-To stop traces issue a
-TR END.
-To delete a particular breakpoint issue
-TR DEL <breakpoint number>
-
-The PA1 key drops to CP mode so you can issue debugger commands,
-Doing alt c (on my 3270 console at least ) clears the screen.
-hitting b <enter> comes back to the running operating system
-from cp mode ( in our case linux ).
-It is typically useful to add shortcuts to your profile.exec file
-if you have one ( this is roughly equivalent to autoexec.bat in DOS ).
-file here are a few from mine.
-/* this gives me command history on issuing f12 */
-set pf12 retrieve
-/* this continues */
-set pf8 imm b
-/* goes to trace set a */
-set pf1 imm tr goto a
-/* goes to trace set b */
-set pf2 imm tr goto b
-/* goes to trace set c */
-set pf3 imm tr goto c
-
-
-
-Instruction Tracing
--------------------
-Setting a simple breakpoint
-TR I PSWA <address>
-To debug a particular function try
-TR I R <function address range>
-TR I on its own will single step.
-TR I DATA <MNEMONIC> <OPTIONAL RANGE> will trace for particular mnemonics
-e.g.
-TR I DATA 4D R 0197BC.4000
-will trace for BAS'es ( opcode 4D ) in the range 0197BC.4000
-if you were inclined you could add traces for all branch instructions &
-suffix them with the run prefix so you would have a backtrace on screen
-when a program crashes.
-TR BR <INTO OR FROM> will trace branches into or out of an address.
-e.g.
-TR BR INTO 0 is often quite useful if a program is getting awkward & deciding
-to branch to 0 & crashing as this will stop at the address before in jumps to 0.
-TR I R <address range> RUN cmd d g
-single steps a range of addresses but stays running &
-displays the gprs on each step.
-
-
-
-Displaying & modifying Registers
---------------------------------
-D G will display all the gprs
-Adding a extra G to all the commands is necessary to access the full 64 bit
-content in VM on z/Architecture. Obviously this isn't required for access
-registers as these are still 32 bit.
-e.g. DGG instead of DG
-D X will display all the control registers
-D AR will display all the access registers
-D AR4-7 will display access registers 4 to 7
-CPU ALL D G will display the GRPS of all CPUS in the configuration
-D PSW will display the current PSW
-st PSW 2000 will put the value 2000 into the PSW &
-cause crash your machine.
-D PREFIX displays the prefix offset
-
-
-Displaying Memory
------------------
-To display memory mapped using the current PSW's mapping try
-D <range>
-To make VM display a message each time it hits a particular address and
-continue try
-D I<range> will disassemble/display a range of instructions.
-ST addr 32 bit word will store a 32 bit aligned address
-D T<range> will display the EBCDIC in an address (if you are that way inclined)
-D R<range> will display real addresses ( without DAT ) but with prefixing.
-There are other complex options to display if you need to get at say home space
-but are in primary space the easiest thing to do is to temporarily
-modify the PSW to the other addressing mode, display the stuff & then
-restore it.
-
-
-
-Hints
------
-If you want to issue a debugger command without halting your virtual machine
-with the PA1 key try prefixing the command with #CP e.g.
-#cp tr i pswa 2000
-also suffixing most debugger commands with RUN will cause them not
-to stop just display the mnemonic at the current instruction on the console.
-If you have several breakpoints you want to put into your program &
-you get fed up of cross referencing with System.map
-you can do the following trick for several symbols.
-grep do_signal System.map
-which emits the following among other things
-0001f4e0 T do_signal
-now you can do
-
-TR I PSWA 0001f4e0 cmd msg * do_signal
-This sends a message to your own console each time do_signal is entered.
-( As an aside I wrote a perl script once which automatically generated a REXX
-script with breakpoints on every kernel procedure, this isn't a good idea
-because there are thousands of these routines & VM can only set 255 breakpoints
-at a time so you nearly had to spend as long pruning the file down as you would
-entering the msgs by hand), however, the trick might be useful for a single
-object file. In the 3270 terminal emulator x3270 there is a very useful option
-in the file menu called "Save Screen In File" - this is very good for keeping a
-copy of traces.
-
-From CMS help <command name> will give you online help on a particular command.
-e.g.
-HELP DISPLAY
-
-Also CP has a file called profile.exec which automatically gets called
-on startup of CMS ( like autoexec.bat ), keeping on a DOS analogy session
-CP has a feature similar to doskey, it may be useful for you to
-use profile.exec to define some keystrokes.
-e.g.
-SET PF9 IMM B
-This does a single step in VM on pressing F8.
-SET PF10 ^
-This sets up the ^ key.
-which can be used for ^c (ctrl-c),^z (ctrl-z) which can't be typed directly
-into some 3270 consoles.
-SET PF11 ^-
-This types the starting keystrokes for a sysrq see SysRq below.
-SET PF12 RETRIEVE
-This retrieves command history on pressing F12.
-
-
-Sometimes in VM the display is set up to scroll automatically this
-can be very annoying if there are messages you wish to look at
-to stop this do
-TERM MORE 255 255
-This will nearly stop automatic screen updates, however it will
-cause a denial of service if lots of messages go to the 3270 console,
-so it would be foolish to use this as the default on a production machine.
-
-
-Tracing particular processes
-----------------------------
-The kernel's text segment is intentionally at an address in memory that it will
-very seldom collide with text segments of user programs ( thanks Martin ),
-this simplifies debugging the kernel.
-However it is quite common for user processes to have addresses which collide
-this can make debugging a particular process under VM painful under normal
-circumstances as the process may change when doing a
-TR I R <address range>.
-Thankfully after reading VM's online help I figured out how to debug
-I particular process.
-
-Your first problem is to find the STD ( segment table designation )
-of the program you wish to debug.
-There are several ways you can do this here are a few
-1) objdump --syms <program to be debugged> | grep main
-To get the address of main in the program.
-tr i pswa <address of main>
-Start the program, if VM drops to CP on what looks like the entry
-point of the main function this is most likely the process you wish to debug.
-Now do a D X13 or D XG13 on z/Architecture.
-On 31 bit the STD is bits 1-19 ( the STO segment table origin )
-& 25-31 ( the STL segment table length ) of CR13.
-now type
-TR I R STD <CR13's value> 0.7fffffff
-e.g.
-TR I R STD 8F32E1FF 0.7fffffff
-Another very useful variation is
-TR STORE INTO STD <CR13's value> <address range>
-for finding out when a particular variable changes.
-
-An alternative way of finding the STD of a currently running process
-is to do the following, ( this method is more complex but
-could be quite convenient if you aren't updating the kernel much &
-so your kernel structures will stay constant for a reasonable period of
-time ).
-
-grep task /proc/<pid>/status
-from this you should see something like
-task: 0f160000 ksp: 0f161de8 pt_regs: 0f161f68
-This now gives you a pointer to the task structure.
-Now make CC:="s390-gcc -g" kernel/sched.s
-To get the task_struct stabinfo.
-( task_struct is defined in include/linux/sched.h ).
-Now we want to look at
-task->active_mm->pgd
-on my machine the active_mm in the task structure stab is
-active_mm:(4,12),672,32
-its offset is 672/8=84=0x54
-the pgd member in the mm_struct stab is
-pgd:(4,6)=*(29,5),96,32
-so its offset is 96/8=12=0xc
-
-so we'll
-hexdump -s 0xf160054 /dev/mem | more
-i.e. task_struct+active_mm offset
-to look at the active_mm member
-f160054 0fee cc60 0019 e334 0000 0000 0000 0011
-hexdump -s 0x0feecc6c /dev/mem | more
-i.e. active_mm+pgd offset
-feecc6c 0f2c 0000 0000 0001 0000 0001 0000 0010
-we get something like
-now do
-TR I R STD <pgd|0x7f> 0.7fffffff
-i.e. the 0x7f is added because the pgd only
-gives the page table origin & we need to set the low bits
-to the maximum possible segment table length.
-TR I R STD 0f2c007f 0.7fffffff
-on z/Architecture you'll probably need to do
-TR I R STD <pgd|0x7> 0.ffffffffffffffff
-to set the TableType to 0x1 & the Table length to 3.
-
-
-
-Tracing Program Exceptions
---------------------------
-If you get a crash which says something like
-illegal operation or specification exception followed by a register dump
-You can restart linux & trace these using the tr prog <range or value> trace
-option.
-
-
-The most common ones you will normally be tracing for is
-1=operation exception
-2=privileged operation exception
-4=protection exception
-5=addressing exception
-6=specification exception
-10=segment translation exception
-11=page translation exception
-
-The full list of these is on page 22 of the current s/390 Reference Summary.
-e.g.
-tr prog 10 will trace segment translation exceptions.
-tr prog on its own will trace all program interruption codes.
-
-Trace Sets
-----------
-On starting VM you are initially in the INITIAL trace set.
-You can do a Q TR to verify this.
-If you have a complex tracing situation where you wish to wait for instance
-till a driver is open before you start tracing IO, but know in your
-heart that you are going to have to make several runs through the code till you
-have a clue whats going on.
-
-What you can do is
-TR I PSWA <Driver open address>
-hit b to continue till breakpoint
-reach the breakpoint
-now do your
-TR GOTO B
-TR IO 7c08-7c09 inst int run
-or whatever the IO channels you wish to trace are & hit b
-
-To got back to the initial trace set do
-TR GOTO INITIAL
-& the TR I PSWA <Driver open address> will be the only active breakpoint again.
-
-
-Tracing linux syscalls under VM
--------------------------------
-Syscalls are implemented on Linux for S390 by the Supervisor call instruction
-(SVC). There 256 possibilities of these as the instruction is made up of a 0xA
-opcode and the second byte being the syscall number. They are traced using the
-simple command:
-TR SVC <Optional value or range>
-the syscalls are defined in linux/arch/s390/include/asm/unistd.h
-e.g. to trace all file opens just do
-TR SVC 5 ( as this is the syscall number of open )
-
-
-SMP Specific commands
----------------------
-To find out how many cpus you have
-Q CPUS displays all the CPU's available to your virtual machine
-To find the cpu that the current cpu VM debugger commands are being directed at
-do Q CPU to change the current cpu VM debugger commands are being directed at do
-CPU <desired cpu no>
-
-On a SMP guest issue a command to all CPUs try prefixing the command with cpu
-all. To issue a command to a particular cpu try cpu <cpu number> e.g.
-CPU 01 TR I R 2000.3000
-If you are running on a guest with several cpus & you have a IO related problem
-& cannot follow the flow of code but you know it isn't smp related.
-from the bash prompt issue
-shutdown -h now or halt.
-do a Q CPUS to find out how many cpus you have
-detach each one of them from cp except cpu 0
-by issuing a
-DETACH CPU 01-(number of cpus in configuration)
-& boot linux again.
-TR SIGP will trace inter processor signal processor instructions.
-DEFINE CPU 01-(number in configuration)
-will get your guests cpus back.
-
-
-Help for displaying ascii textstrings
--------------------------------------
-On the very latest VM Nucleus'es VM can now display ascii
-( thanks Neale for the hint ) by doing
-D TX<lowaddr>.<len>
-e.g.
-D TX0.100
-
-Alternatively
-=============
-Under older VM debuggers (I love EBDIC too) you can use following little
-program which converts a command line of hex digits to ascii text. It can be
-compiled under linux and you can copy the hex digits from your x3270 terminal
-to your xterm if you are debugging from a linuxbox.
-
-This is quite useful when looking at a parameter passed in as a text string
-under VM ( unless you are good at decoding ASCII in your head ).
-
-e.g. consider tracing an open syscall
-TR SVC 5
-We have stopped at a breakpoint
-000151B0' SVC 0A05 -> 0001909A' CC 0
-
-D 20.8 to check the SVC old psw in the prefix area and see was it from userspace
-(for the layout of the prefix area consult the "Fixed Storage Locations"
-chapter of the s/390 Reference Summary if you have it available).
-V00000020 070C2000 800151B2
-The problem state bit wasn't set & it's also too early in the boot sequence
-for it to be a userspace SVC if it was we would have to temporarily switch the
-psw to user space addressing so we could get at the first parameter of the open
-in gpr2.
-Next do a
-D G2
-GPR 2 = 00014CB4
-Now display what gpr2 is pointing to
-D 00014CB4.20
-V00014CB4 2F646576 2F636F6E 736F6C65 00001BF5
-V00014CC4 FC00014C B4001001 E0001000 B8070707
-Now copy the text till the first 00 hex ( which is the end of the string
-to an xterm & do hex2ascii on it.
-hex2ascii 2F646576 2F636F6E 736F6C65 00
-outputs
-Decoded Hex:=/ d e v / c o n s o l e 0x00
-We were opening the console device,
-
-You can compile the code below yourself for practice :-),

-Stack tracing under VM
-----------------------
-A basic backtrace
------------------
-
-Here are the tricks I use 9 out of 10 times it works pretty well,
-
-When your backchain reaches a dead end
---------------------------------------
-This can happen when an exception happens in the kernel and the kernel is
-entered twice. If you reach the NULL pointer at the end of the back chain you
-should be able to sniff further back if you follow the following tricks.
-1) A kernel address should be easy to recognise since it is in
-primary space & the problem state bit isn't set & also
-The Hi bit of the address is set.
-2) Another backchain should also be easy to recognise since it is an
-address pointing to another address approximately 100 bytes or 0x70 hex
-behind the current stackpointer.
-
-
-Here is some practice.
-boot the kernel & hit PA1 at some random time
-d g to display the gprs, this should display something like
-GPR 0 = 00000001 00156018 0014359C 00000000
-GPR 4 = 00000001 001B8888 000003E0 00000000
-GPR 8 = 00100080 00100084 00000000 000FE000
-GPR 12 = 00010400 8001B2DC 8001B36A 000FFED8
-Note that GPR14 is a return address but as we are real men we are going to
-trace the stack.
-display 0x40 bytes after the stack pointer.
-
-V000FFED8 000FFF38 8001B838 80014C8E 000FFF38
-V000FFEE8 00000000 00000000 000003E0 00000000
-V000FFEF8 00100080 00100084 00000000 000FE000
-V000FFF08 00010400 8001B2DC 8001B36A 000FFED8
-
-
-Ah now look at whats in sp+56 (sp+0x38) this is 8001B36A our saved r14 if
-you look above at our stackframe & also agrees with GPR14.
-
-now backchain
-d 000FFF38.40
-we now are taking the contents of SP to get our first backchain.
-
-V000FFF38 000FFFA0 00000000 00014995 00147094
-V000FFF48 00147090 001470A0 000003E0 00000000
-V000FFF58 00100080 00100084 00000000 001BF1D0
-V000FFF68 00010400 800149BA 80014CA6 000FFF38
-
-This displays a 2nd return address of 80014CA6
-
-now do d 000FFFA0.40 for our 3rd backchain
-
-V000FFFA0 04B52002 0001107F 00000000 00000000
-V000FFFB0 00000000 00000000 FF000000 0001107F
-V000FFFC0 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
-V000FFFD0 00010400 80010802 8001085A 000FFFA0
-
-
-our 3rd return address is 8001085A
-
-as the 04B52002 looks suspiciously like rubbish it is fair to assume that the
-kernel entry routines for the sake of optimisation don't set up a backchain.
-
-now look at System.map to see if the addresses make any sense.
-
-grep -i 0001b3 System.map
-outputs among other things
-0001b304 T cpu_idle
-so 8001B36A
-is cpu_idle+0x66 ( quiet the cpu is asleep, don't wake it )
-
-
-grep -i 00014 System.map
-produces among other things
-00014a78 T start_kernel
-so 0014CA6 is start_kernel+some hex number I can't add in my head.
-
-grep -i 00108 System.map
-this produces
-00010800 T _stext
-so 8001085A is _stext+0x5a
-
-Congrats you've done your first backchain.
-
-
-
-s/390 & z/Architecture IO Overview
-==================================
-
-I am not going to give a course in 390 IO architecture as this would take me
-quite a while and I'm no expert. Instead I'll give a 390 IO architecture
-summary for Dummies. If you have the s/390 principles of operation available
-read this instead. If nothing else you may find a few useful keywords in here
-and be able to use them on a web search engine to find more useful information.
-
-Unlike other bus architectures modern 390 systems do their IO using mostly
-fibre optics and devices such as tapes and disks can be shared between several
-mainframes. Also S390 can support up to 65536 devices while a high end PC based
-system might be choking with around 64.
-
-Here is some of the common IO terminology:
-
-Subchannel:
-This is the logical number most IO commands use to talk to an IO device. There
-can be up to 0x10000 (65536) of these in a configuration, typically there are a
-few hundred. Under VM for simplicity they are allocated contiguously, however
-on the native hardware they are not. They typically stay consistent between
-boots provided no new hardware is inserted or removed.
-Under Linux for s390 we use these as IRQ's and also when issuing an IO command
-(CLEAR SUBCHANNEL, HALT SUBCHANNEL, MODIFY SUBCHANNEL, RESUME SUBCHANNEL,
-START SUBCHANNEL, STORE SUBCHANNEL and TEST SUBCHANNEL). We use this as the ID
-of the device we wish to talk to. The most important of these instructions are
-START SUBCHANNEL (to start IO), TEST SUBCHANNEL (to check whether the IO
-completed successfully) and HALT SUBCHANNEL (to kill IO). A subchannel can have
-up to 8 channel paths to a device, this offers redundancy if one is not
-available.
-
-Device Number:
-This number remains static and is closely tied to the hardware. There are 65536
-of these, made up of a CHPID (Channel Path ID, the most significant 8 bits) and
-another lsb 8 bits. These remain static even if more devices are inserted or
-removed from the hardware. There is a 1 to 1 mapping between subchannels and
-device numbers, provided devices aren't inserted or removed.
-
-Channel Control Words:
-CCWs are linked lists of instructions initially pointed to by an operation
-request block (ORB), which is initially given to Start Subchannel (SSCH)
-command along with the subchannel number for the IO subsystem to process
-while the CPU continues executing normal code.
-CCWs come in two flavours, Format 0 (24 bit for backward compatibility) and
-Format 1 (31 bit). These are typically used to issue read and write (and many
-other) instructions. They consist of a length field and an absolute address
-field.
-Each IO typically gets 1 or 2 interrupts, one for channel end (primary status)
-when the channel is idle, and the second for device end (secondary status).
-Sometimes you get both concurrently. You check how the IO went on by issuing a
-TEST SUBCHANNEL at each interrupt, from which you receive an Interruption
-response block (IRB). If you get channel and device end status in the IRB
-without channel checks etc. your IO probably went okay. If you didn't you
-probably need to examine the IRB, extended status word etc.
-If an error occurs, more sophisticated control units have a facility known as
-concurrent sense. This means that if an error occurs Extended sense information
-will be presented in the Extended status word in the IRB. If not you have to
-issue a subsequent SENSE CCW command after the test subchannel.
-
-
-TPI (Test pending interrupt) can also be used for polled IO, but in
-multitasking multiprocessor systems it isn't recommended except for
-checking special cases (i.e. non looping checks for pending IO etc.).
-
-Store Subchannel and Modify Subchannel can be used to examine and modify
-operating characteristics of a subchannel (e.g. channel paths).
-
-Other IO related Terms:
-Sysplex: S390's Clustering Technology
-QDIO: S390's new high speed IO architecture to support devices such as gigabit
-ethernet, this architecture is also designed to be forward compatible with
-upcoming 64 bit machines.
-
-
-General Concepts
-
-Input Output Processors (IOP's) are responsible for communicating between
-the mainframe CPU's & the channel & relieve the mainframe CPU's from the
-burden of communicating with IO devices directly, this allows the CPU's to
-concentrate on data processing.
-
-IOP's can use one or more links ( known as channel paths ) to talk to each
-IO device. It first checks for path availability & chooses an available one,
-then starts ( & sometimes terminates IO ).
-There are two types of channel path: ESCON & the Parallel IO interface.
-
-IO devices are attached to control units, control units provide the
-logic to interface the channel paths & channel path IO protocols to
-the IO devices, they can be integrated with the devices or housed separately
-& often talk to several similar devices ( typical examples would be raid
-controllers or a control unit which connects to 1000 3270 terminals ).

- CPU = Central Processing Unit

- IOP = IP Processor
- CU = Control Unit
-
-The 390 IO systems come in 2 flavours the current 390 machines support both
-
-The Older 360 & 370 Interface,sometimes called the Parallel I/O interface,
-sometimes called Bus-and Tag & sometimes Original Equipment Manufacturers
-Interface (OEMI).
-
-This byte wide Parallel channel path/bus has parity & data on the "Bus" cable
-and control lines on the "Tag" cable. These can operate in byte multiplex mode
-for sharing between several slow devices or burst mode and monopolize the
-channel for the whole burst. Up to 256 devices can be addressed on one of these
-cables. These cables are about one inch in diameter. The maximum unextended
-length supported by these cables is 125 Meters but this can be extended up to
-2km with a fibre optic channel extended such as a 3044. The maximum burst speed
-supported is 4.5 megabytes per second. However, some really old processors
-support only transfer rates of 3.0, 2.0 & 1.0 MB/sec.
-One of these paths can be daisy chained to up to 8 control units.
-
-
-ESCON if fibre optic it is also called FICON
-Was introduced by IBM in 1990. Has 2 fibre optic cables and uses either leds or
-lasers for communication at a signaling rate of up to 200 megabits/sec. As
-10bits are transferred for every 8 bits info this drops to 160 megabits/sec
-and to 18.6 Megabytes/sec once control info and CRC are added. ESCON only
-operates in burst mode.
-
-ESCONs typical max cable length is 3km for the led version and 20km for the
-laser version known as XDF (extended distance facility). This can be further
-extended by using an ESCON director which triples the above mentioned ranges.
-Unlike Bus & Tag as ESCON is serial it uses a packet switching architecture,
-the standard Bus & Tag control protocol is however present within the packets.
-Up to 256 devices can be attached to each control unit that uses one of these
-interfaces.
-
-Common 390 Devices include:
-Network adapters typically OSA2,3172's,2116's & OSA-E gigabit ethernet adapters,
-Consoles 3270 & 3215 (a teletype emulated under linux for a line mode console).
-DASD's direct access storage devices ( otherwise known as hard disks ).
-Tape Drives.
-CTC ( Channel to Channel Adapters ),
-ESCON or Parallel Cables used as a very high speed serial link
-between 2 machines.
-
-
-Debugging IO on s/390 & z/Architecture under VM
-===============================================
-
-Now we are ready to go on with IO tracing commands under VM
-
-A few self explanatory queries:
-Q OSA
-Q CTC
-Q DISK ( This command is CMS specific )
-Q DASD
-
-
-
-
-
-
-Q OSA on my machine returns
-OSA 7C08 ON OSA 7C08 SUBCHANNEL = 0000
-OSA 7C09 ON OSA 7C09 SUBCHANNEL = 0001
-OSA 7C14 ON OSA 7C14 SUBCHANNEL = 0002
-OSA 7C15 ON OSA 7C15 SUBCHANNEL = 0003
-
-If you have a guest with certain privileges you may be able to see devices
-which don't belong to you. To avoid this, add the option V.
-e.g.
-Q V OSA
-
-Now using the device numbers returned by this command we will
-Trace the io starting up on the first device 7c08 & 7c09
-In our simplest case we can trace the
-start subchannels
-like TR SSCH 7C08-7C09
-or the halt subchannels
-or TR HSCH 7C08-7C09
-MSCH's ,STSCH's I think you can guess the rest
-
-A good trick is tracing all the IO's and CCWS and spooling them into the reader
-of another VM guest so he can ftp the logfile back to his own machine. I'll do
-a small bit of this and give you a look at the output.
-
-1) Spool stdout to VM reader
-SP PRT TO (another vm guest ) or * for the local vm guest
-2) Fill the reader with the trace
-TR IO 7c08-7c09 INST INT CCW PRT RUN
-3) Start up linux
-i 00c

-
-Other common VM device related commands
----------------------------------------------
-These commands are listed only because they have
-been of use to me in the past & may be of use to
-you too. For more complete info on each of the commands
-use type HELP <command> from CMS.
-detaching devices
-DET <devno range>
-ATT <devno range> <guest>
-attach a device to guest * for your own guest
-READY <devno> cause VM to issue a fake interrupt.
-
-The VARY command is normally only available to VM administrators.
-VARY ON PATH <path> TO <devno range>
-VARY OFF PATH <PATH> FROM <devno range>
-This is used to switch on or off channel paths to devices.
-
-Q CHPID <channel path ID>
-This displays state of devices using this channel path
-D SCHIB <subchannel>
-This displays the subchannel information SCHIB block for the device.
-this I believe is also only available to administrators.
-DEFINE CTC <devno>
-defines a virtual CTC channel to channel connection
-2 need to be defined on each guest for the CTC driver to use.
-COUPLE devno userid remote devno
-Joins a local virtual device to a remote virtual device
-( commonly used for the CTC driver ).
-
-Building a VM ramdisk under CMS which linux can use
-def vfb-<blocksize> <subchannel> <number blocks>
-blocksize is commonly 4096 for linux.
-Formatting it
-format <subchannel> <driver letter e.g. x> (blksize <blocksize>
-
-Sharing a disk between multiple guests
-LINK userid devno1 devno2 mode password
-
-
-
-GDB on S390
-===========
-N.B. if compiling for debugging gdb works better without optimisation
-( see Compiling programs for debugging )
-
-invocation
-----------
-gdb <victim program> <optional corefile>
-
-Online help
------------
-help: gives help on commands
-e.g.
-help
-help display
-Note gdb's online help is very good use it.
-
-
-Assembly
---------
-info registers: displays registers other than floating point.
-info all-registers: displays floating points as well.
-disassemble: disassembles
-e.g.
-disassemble without parameters will disassemble the current function
-disassemble $pc $pc+10
-
-Viewing & modifying variables
------------------------------
-print or p: displays variable or register
-e.g. p/x $sp will display the stack pointer
-
-display: prints variable or register each time program stops
-e.g.
-display/x $pc will display the program counter
-display argc
-
-undisplay : undo's display's
-
-info breakpoints: shows all current breakpoints
-
-info stack: shows stack back trace (if this doesn't work too well, I'll show
-you the stacktrace by hand below).
-
-info locals: displays local variables.
-
-info args: display current procedure arguments.
-
-set args: will set argc & argv each time the victim program is invoked.
-
-set <variable>=value
-set argc=100
-set $pc=0
-
-
-
-Modifying execution
--------------------
-step: steps n lines of sourcecode
-step steps 1 line.
-step 100 steps 100 lines of code.
-
-next: like step except this will not step into subroutines
-
-stepi: steps a single machine code instruction.
-e.g. stepi 100
-
-nexti: steps a single machine code instruction but will not step into
-subroutines.
-
-finish: will run until exit of the current routine
-
-run: (re)starts a program
-
-cont: continues a program
-
-quit: exits gdb.
-
-
-breakpoints
-------------
-
-break
-sets a breakpoint
-e.g.
-
-break main
-
-break *$pc
-
-break *0x400618
-
-Here's a really useful one for large programs
-rbr
-Set a breakpoint for all functions matching REGEXP
-e.g.
-rbr 390
-will set a breakpoint with all functions with 390 in their name.
-
-info breakpoints
-lists all breakpoints
-
-delete: delete breakpoint by number or delete them all
-e.g.
-delete 1 will delete the first breakpoint
-delete will delete them all
-
-watch: This will set a watchpoint ( usually hardware assisted ),
-This will watch a variable till it changes
-e.g.
-watch cnt, will watch the variable cnt till it changes.
-As an aside unfortunately gdb's, architecture independent watchpoint code
-is inconsistent & not very good, watchpoints usually work but not always.
-
-info watchpoints: Display currently active watchpoints
-
-condition: ( another useful one )
-Specify breakpoint number N to break only if COND is true.
-Usage is `condition N COND', where N is an integer and COND is an
-expression to be evaluated whenever breakpoint N is reached.
-
-
-
-User defined functions/macros
------------------------------
-define: ( Note this is very very useful,simple & powerful )
-usage define <name> <list of commands> end
-
-examples which you should consider putting into .gdbinit in your home directory
-define d
-stepi
-disassemble $pc $pc+10
-end
-
-define e
-nexti
-disassemble $pc $pc+10
-end
-
-
-Other hard to classify stuff
-----------------------------
-signal n:
-sends the victim program a signal.
-e.g. signal 3 will send a SIGQUIT.
-
-info signals:
-what gdb does when the victim receives certain signals.
-
-list:
-e.g.
-list lists current function source
-list 1,10 list first 10 lines of current file.
-list test.c:1,10
-
-
-directory:
-Adds directories to be searched for source if gdb cannot find the source.
-(note it is a bit sensitive about slashes)
-e.g. To add the root of the filesystem to the searchpath do
-directory //
-
-
-call <function>
-This calls a function in the victim program, this is pretty powerful
-e.g.
-(gdb) call printf("hello world")
-outputs:
-$1 = 11
-
-You might now be thinking that the line above didn't work, something extra had
-to be done.
-(gdb) call fflush(stdout)
-hello world$2 = 0
-As an aside the debugger also calls malloc & free under the hood
-to make space for the "hello world" string.
-
-
-
-hints
------
-1) command completion works just like bash
-( if you are a bad typist like me this really helps )
-e.g. hit br <TAB> & cursor up & down :-).
-
-2) if you have a debugging problem that takes a few steps to recreate
-put the steps into a file called .gdbinit in your current working directory
-if you have defined a few extra useful user defined commands put these in
-your home directory & they will be read each time gdb is launched.
-
-A typical .gdbinit file might be.
-break main
-run
-break runtime_exception
-cont
-
-
-stack chaining in gdb by hand
------------------------------
-This is done using a the same trick described for VM
-p/x (*($sp+56))&0x7fffffff get the first backchain.
-
-For z/Architecture
-Replace 56 with 112 & ignore the &0x7fffffff
-in the macros below & do nasty casts to longs like the following
-as gdb unfortunately deals with printed arguments as ints which
-messes up everything.
-i.e. here is a 3rd backchain dereference
-p/x *(long *)(***(long ***)$sp+112)
-
-
-this outputs
-$5 = 0x528f18
-on my machine.
-Now you can use
-info symbol (*($sp+56))&0x7fffffff
-you might see something like.
-rl_getc + 36 in section .text telling you what is located at address 0x528f18
-Now do.
-p/x (*(*$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
-This outputs
-$6 = 0x528ed0
-Now do.
-info symbol (*(*$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
-rl_read_key + 180 in section .text
-now do
-p/x (*(**$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
-& so on.
-
-Disassembling instructions without debug info
----------------------------------------------
-gdb typically complains if there is a lack of debugging
-symbols in the disassemble command with
-"No function contains specified address." To get around
-this do
-x/<number lines to disassemble>xi <address>
-e.g.
-x/20xi 0x400730
-
-
-
-Note: Remember gdb has history just like bash you don't need to retype the
-whole line just use the up & down arrows.
-
-
-
-For more info
--------------
-From your linuxbox do
-man gdb or info gdb.
-
-core dumps
-----------
-What a core dump ?,
-A core dump is a file generated by the kernel (if allowed) which contains the
-registers and all active pages of the program which has crashed.
-From this file gdb will allow you to look at the registers, stack trace and
-memory of the program as if it just crashed on your system. It is usually
-called core and created in the current working directory.
-This is very useful in that a customer can mail a core dump to a technical
-support department and the technical support department can reconstruct what
-happened. Provided they have an identical copy of this program with debugging
-symbols compiled in and the source base of this build is available.
-In short it is far more useful than something like a crash log could ever hope
-to be.
-
-Why have I never seen one ?.
-Probably because you haven't used the command
-ulimit -c unlimited in bash
-to allow core dumps, now do
-ulimit -a
-to verify that the limit was accepted.
-
-A sample core dump
-To create this I'm going to do
-ulimit -c unlimited
-gdb
-to launch gdb (my victim app. ) now be bad & do the following from another
-telnet/xterm session to the same machine
-ps -aux | grep gdb
-kill -SIGSEGV <gdb's pid>
-or alternatively use killall -SIGSEGV gdb if you have the killall command.
-Now look at the core dump.
-./gdb core
-Displays the following

-LDD
-===
-This is a program which lists the shared libraries which a library needs,
-Note you also get the relocations of the shared library text segments which
-help when using objdump --source.
-e.g.
- ldd ./gdb
-outputs
-libncurses.so.4 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.4 (0x40018000)
-libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4005e000)
-libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40084000)
-/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
-
-
-Debugging shared libraries
-==========================
-Most programs use shared libraries, however it can be very painful
-when you single step instruction into a function like printf for the
-first time & you end up in functions like _dl_runtime_resolve this is
-the ld.so doing lazy binding, lazy binding is a concept in ELF where
-shared library functions are not loaded into memory unless they are
-actually used, great for saving memory but a pain to debug.
-To get around this either relink the program -static or exit gdb type
-export LD_BIND_NOW=true this will stop lazy binding & restart the gdb'ing
-the program in question.
-
-
-
-Debugging modules
-=================
-As modules are dynamically loaded into the kernel their address can be
-anywhere to get around this use the -m option with insmod to emit a load
-map which can be piped into a file if required.
-
-The proc file system
-====================
-What is it ?.
-It is a filesystem created by the kernel with files which are created on demand
-by the kernel if read, or can be used to modify kernel parameters,
-it is a powerful concept.
-
-e.g.
-
-cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
-On my machine outputs
-0
-telling me ip_forwarding is not on to switch it on I can do
-echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
-cat it again
-cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
-On my machine now outputs
-1
-IP forwarding is on.
-There is a lot of useful info in here best found by going in and having a look
-around, so I'll take you through some entries I consider important.
-
-All the processes running on the machine have their own entry defined by
-/proc/<pid>
-So lets have a look at the init process
-cd /proc/1
-
-cat cmdline
-emits
-init [2]
-
-cd /proc/1/fd
-This contains numerical entries of all the open files,
-some of these you can cat e.g. stdout (2)
-
-cat /proc/29/maps
-on my machine emits
-

-Showing us the shared libraries init uses where they are in memory
-& memory access permissions for each virtual memory area.
-
-/proc/1/cwd is a softlink to the current working directory.
-/proc/1/root is the root of the filesystem for this process.
-
-/proc/1/mem is the current running processes memory which you
-can read & write to like a file.
-strace uses this sometimes as it is a bit faster than the
-rather inefficient ptrace interface for peeking at DATA.

-in the kernel for some unknown reason.
-
-Some driver debugging techniques
-================================
-debug feature
--------------
-Some of our drivers now support a "debug feature" in
-/proc/s390dbf see s390dbf.txt in the linux/Documentation directory
-for more info.
-e.g.
-to switch on the lcs "debug feature"
-echo 5 > /proc/s390dbf/lcs/level
-& then after the error occurred.
-cat /proc/s390dbf/lcs/sprintf >/logfile
-the logfile now contains some information which may help
-tech support resolve a problem in the field.
-
-
-
-high level debugging network drivers
-------------------------------------
-ifconfig is a quite useful command
-it gives the current state of network drivers.
-
-If you suspect your network device driver is dead
-one way to check is type
-ifconfig <network device>
-e.g. tr0
-You should see something like
-tr0 Link encap:16/4 Mbps Token Ring (New) HWaddr 00:04:AC:20:8E:48
- inet addr:9.164.185.132 Bcast:9.164.191.255 Mask:255.255.224.0
- UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:2000 Metric:1
- RX packets:246134 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
- TX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
- collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
-
-if the device doesn't say up
-try
-/etc/rc.d/init.d/network start
-( this starts the network stack & hopefully calls ifconfig tr0 up ).
-ifconfig looks at the output of /proc/net/dev and presents it in a more
-presentable form.
-Now ping the device from a machine in the same subnet.
-if the RX packets count & TX packets counts don't increment you probably
-have problems.
-next
-cat /proc/net/arp
-Do you see any hardware addresses in the cache if not you may have problems.
-Next try
-ping -c 5 <broadcast_addr> i.e. the Bcast field above in the output of
-ifconfig. Do you see any replies from machines other than the local machine
-if not you may have problems. also if the TX packets count in ifconfig
-hasn't incremented either you have serious problems in your driver
-(e.g. the txbusy field of the network device being stuck on )
-or you may have multiple network devices connected.
-
-
-chandev
--------
-There is a new device layer for channel devices, some
-drivers e.g. lcs are registered with this layer.
-If the device uses the channel device layer you'll be
-able to find what interrupts it uses & the current state
-of the device.
-See the manpage chandev.8 &type cat /proc/chandev for more info.
-
-
-SysRq
-=====
-This is now supported by linux for s/390 & z/Architecture.
-To enable it do compile the kernel with
-Kernel Hacking -> Magic SysRq Key Enabled
-echo "1" > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
-also type
-echo "8" >/proc/sys/kernel/printk
-To make printk output go to console.
-On 390 all commands are prefixed with
-^-
-e.g.
-^-t will show tasks.
-^-? or some unknown command will display help.
-The sysrq key reading is very picky ( I have to type the keys in an
- xterm session & paste them into the x3270 console )
-& it may be wise to predefine the keys as described in the VM hints above
-
-This is particularly useful for syncing disks unmounting & rebooting
-if the machine gets partially hung.
-
-Read Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst for more info

+Register Set
+============
+The current architectures have the following registers.
+
+16 General propose registers, 32 bit on s/390 and 64 bit on z/Architecture,
+r0-r15 (or gpr0-gpr15), used for arithmetic and addressing.
+
+16 Control registers, 32 bit on s/390 and 64 bit on z/Architecture, cr0-cr15,
+kernel usage only, used for memory management, interrupt control, debugging
+control etc.
+
+16 Access registers (ar0-ar15), 32 bit on both s/390 and z/Architecture,
+normally not used by normal programs but potentially could be used as
+temporary storage. These registers have a 1:1 association with general
+purpose registers and are designed to be used in the so-called access
+register mode to select different address spaces.
+Access register 0 (and access register 1 on z/Architecture, which needs a
+64 bit pointer) is currently used by the pthread library as a pointer to
+the current running threads private area.
+
+16 64-bit floating point registers (fp0-fp15 ) IEEE & HFP floating
+point format compliant on G5 upwards & a Floating point control reg (FPC)
+
+4 64-bit registers (fp0,fp2,fp4 & fp6) HFP only on older machines.
+
+Note:
+ Linux (currently) always uses IEEE & emulates G5 IEEE format on older
+ machines, ( provided the kernel is configured for this ).
+
+
+The PSW is the most important register on the machine it
+is 64 bit on s/390 & 128 bit on z/Architecture & serves the roles of
+a program counter (pc), condition code register,memory space designator.
+In IBM standard notation I am counting bit 0 as the MSB.
+It has several advantages over a normal program counter
+in that you can change address translation & program counter
+in a single instruction. To change address translation,
+e.g. switching address translation off requires that you
+have a logical=physical mapping for the address you are
+currently running at.

+Prefix Page(s)
+--------------
+This per cpu memory area is too intimately tied to the processor not to mention.
+It exists between the real addresses 0-4096 on s/390 and between 0-8192 on
+z/Architecture and is exchanged with one page on s/390 or two pages on
+z/Architecture in absolute storage by the set prefix instruction during Linux
+startup.
+
+This page is mapped to a different prefix for each processor in an SMP
+configuration (assuming the OS designer is sane of course).
+
+Bytes 0-512 (200 hex) on s/390 and 0-512, 4096-4544, 4604-5119 currently on
+z/Architecture are used by the processor itself for holding such information
+as exception indications and entry points for exceptions.
+
+Bytes after 0xc00 hex are used by linux for per processor globals on s/390 and
+z/Architecture (there is a gap on z/Architecture currently between 0xc00 and
+0x1000, too, which is used by Linux).
+
+The closest thing to this on traditional architectures is the interrupt
+vector table. This is a good thing & does simplify some of the kernel coding
+however it means that we now cannot catch stray NULL pointers in the
+kernel without hard coded checks.
+
+
+
+Address Spaces on Intel Linux
+=============================
+
+The traditional Intel Linux is approximately mapped as follows forgive
+the ascii art::
+
+ 0xFFFFFFFF 4GB Himem *****************
+ * *
+ * Kernel Space *
+ * *
+ ***************** ****************
+ User Space Himem * User Stack * * *
+ (typically 0xC0000000 3GB ) ***************** * *
+ * Shared Libs * * Next Process *
+ ***************** * to *
+ * * <== * Run * <==
+ * User Program * * *
+ * Data BSS * * *
+ * Text * * *
+ * Sections * * *
+ 0x00000000 ***************** ****************
+
+Now it is easy to see that on Intel it is quite easy to recognise a kernel
+address as being one greater than user space himem (in this case 0xC0000000),
+and addresses of less than this are the ones in the current running program on
+this processor (if an smp box).
+
+If using the virtual machine ( VM ) as a debugger it is quite difficult to
+know which user process is running as the address space you are looking at
+could be from any process in the run queue.
+
+The limitation of Intels addressing technique is that the linux
+kernel uses a very simple real address to virtual addressing technique
+of Real Address=Virtual Address-User Space Himem.
+This means that on Intel the kernel linux can typically only address
+Himem=0xFFFFFFFF-0xC0000000=1GB & this is all the RAM these machines
+can typically use.
+
+They can lower User Himem to 2GB or lower & thus be
+able to use 2GB of RAM however this shrinks the maximum size
+of User Space from 3GB to 2GB they have a no win limit of 4GB unless
+they go to 64 Bit.
+
+
+On 390 our limitations & strengths make us slightly different.
+For backward compatibility we are only allowed use 31 bits (2GB)
+of our 32 bit addresses, however, we use entirely separate address
+spaces for the user & kernel.
+
+This means we can support 2GB of non Extended RAM on s/390, & more
+with the Extended memory management swap device &
+currently 4TB of physical memory currently on z/Architecture.
+
+
+Address Spaces on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
+==================================================
+
+Our addressing scheme is basically as follows::
+
+ Primary Space Home Space
+ Himem 0x7fffffff 2GB on s/390 ***************** ****************
+ currently 0x3ffffffffff (2^42)-1 * User Stack * * *
+ on z/Architecture. ***************** * *
+ * Shared Libs * * *
+ ***************** * *
+ * * * Kernel *
+ * User Program * * *
+ * Data BSS * * *
+ * Text * * *
+ * Sections * * *
+ 0x00000000 ***************** ****************
+
+This also means that we need to look at the PSW problem state bit and the
+addressing mode to decide whether we are looking at user or kernel space.
+
+User space runs in primary address mode (or access register mode within
+the vdso code).
+
+The kernel usually also runs in home space mode, however when accessing
+user space the kernel switches to primary or secondary address mode if
+the mvcos instruction is not available or if a compare-and-swap (futex)
+instruction on a user space address is performed.
+
+When also looking at the ASCE control registers, this means:
+
+User space:
+
+- runs in primary or access register mode
+- cr1 contains the user asce
+- cr7 contains the user asce
+- cr13 contains the kernel asce
+
+Kernel space:
+
+- runs in home space mode
+- cr1 contains the user or kernel asce
+
+ - the kernel asce is loaded when a uaccess requires primary or
+ secondary address mode
+
+- cr7 contains the user or kernel asce, (changed with set_fs())
+- cr13 contains the kernel asce
+
+In case of uaccess the kernel changes to:
+
+- primary space mode in case of a uaccess (copy_to_user) and uses
+ e.g. the mvcp instruction to access user space. However the kernel
+ will stay in home space mode if the mvcos instruction is available
+- secondary space mode in case of futex atomic operations, so that the
+ instructions come from primary address space and data from secondary
+ space
+
+In case of KVM, the kernel runs in home space mode, but cr1 gets switched
+to contain the gmap asce before the SIE instruction gets executed. When
+the SIE instruction is finished, cr1 will be switched back to contain the
+user asce.
+
+
+Virtual Addresses on s/390 & z/Architecture
+===========================================
+
+A virtual address on s/390 is made up of 3 parts
+The SX (segment index, roughly corresponding to the PGD & PMD in Linux
+terminology) being bits 1-11.
+
+The PX (page index, corresponding to the page table entry (pte) in Linux
+terminology) being bits 12-19.
+
+The remaining bits BX (the byte index are the offset in the page )
+i.e. bits 20 to 31.
+
+On z/Architecture in linux we currently make up an address from 4 parts.
+
+- The region index bits (RX) 0-32 we currently use bits 22-32
+- The segment index (SX) being bits 33-43
+- The page index (PX) being bits 44-51
+- The byte index (BX) being bits 52-63
+
+Notes:
+ 1) s/390 has no PMD so the PMD is really the PGD also.
+ A lot of this stuff is defined in pgtable.h.
+
+ 2) Also seeing as s/390's page indexes are only 1k in size
+ (bits 12-19 x 4 bytes per pte ) we use 1 ( page 4k )
+ to make the best use of memory by updating 4 segment indices
+ entries each time we mess with a PMD & use offsets
+ 0,1024,2048 & 3072 in this page as for our segment indexes.
+ On z/Architecture our page indexes are now 2k in size
+ ( bits 12-19 x 8 bytes per pte ) we do a similar trick
+ but only mess with 2 segment indices each time we mess with
+ a PMD.
+
+ 3) As z/Architecture supports up to a massive 5-level page table lookup we
+ can only use 3 currently on Linux ( as this is all the generic kernel
+ currently supports ) however this may change in future
+ this allows us to access ( according to my sums )
+ 4TB of virtual storage per process i.e.
+ 4096*512(PTES)*1024(PMDS)*2048(PGD) = 4398046511104 bytes,
+ enough for another 2 or 3 of years I think :-).
+ to do this we use a region-third-table designation type in
+ our address space control registers.
+
+
+The Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture Kernel Task Structure
+==========================================================
+Each process/thread under Linux for S390 has its own kernel task_struct
+defined in linux/include/linux/sched.h
+The S390 on initialisation & resuming of a process on a cpu sets
+the __LC_KERNEL_STACK variable in the spare prefix area for this cpu
+(which we use for per-processor globals).
+
+The kernel stack pointer is intimately tied with the task structure for
+each processor as follows::
+
+ s/390
+ ************************
+ * 1 page kernel stack *
+ * ( 4K ) *
+ ************************
+ * 1 page task_struct *
+ * ( 4K ) *
+ 8K aligned ************************
+
+ z/Architecture
+ ************************
+ * 2 page kernel stack *
+ * ( 8K ) *
+ ************************
+ * 2 page task_struct *
+ * ( 8K ) *
+ 16K aligned ************************
+
+What this means is that we don't need to dedicate any register or global
+variable to point to the current running process & can retrieve it with the
+following very simple construct for s/390 & one very similar for
+z/Architecture::
+
+ static inline struct task_struct * get_current(void)
+ {
+ struct task_struct *current;
+ __asm__("lhi %0,-8192\n\t"
+ "nr %0,15"
+ : "=r" (current) );
+ return current;
+ }
+
+i.e. just anding the current kernel stack pointer with the mask -8192.
+Thankfully because Linux doesn't have support for nested IO interrupts
+& our devices have large buffers can survive interrupts being shut for
+short amounts of time we don't need a separate stack for interrupts.
+
+
+
+
+Register Usage & Stackframes on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
+=================================================================
+Overview:
+---------
+This is the code that gcc produces at the top & the bottom of
+each function. It usually is fairly consistent & similar from
+function to function & if you know its layout you can probably
+make some headway in finding the ultimate cause of a problem
+after a crash without a source level debugger.
+
+Note: To follow stackframes requires a knowledge of C or Pascal &
+limited knowledge of one assembly language.
+
+It should be noted that there are some differences between the
+s/390 and z/Architecture stack layouts as the z/Architecture stack layout
+didn't have to maintain compatibility with older linkage formats.
+
+Glossary:
+---------
+alloca:
+ This is a built in compiler function for runtime allocation
+ of extra space on the callers stack which is obviously freed
+ up on function exit ( e.g. the caller may choose to allocate nothing
+ of a buffer of 4k if required for temporary purposes ), it generates
+ very efficient code ( a few cycles ) when compared to alternatives
+ like malloc.
+
+automatics:
+ These are local variables on the stack, i.e they aren't in registers &
+ they aren't static.
+
+back-chain:
+ This is a pointer to the stack pointer before entering a
+ framed functions ( see frameless function ) prologue got by
+ dereferencing the address of the current stack pointer,
+ i.e. got by accessing the 32 bit value at the stack pointers
+ current location.
+
+base-pointer:
+ This is a pointer to the back of the literal pool which
+ is an area just behind each procedure used to store constants
+ in each function.
+
+call-clobbered:
+ The caller probably needs to save these registers if there
+ is something of value in them, on the stack or elsewhere before making a
+ call to another procedure so that it can restore it later.
+
+epilogue:
+ The code generated by the compiler to return to the caller.
+
+frameless-function:
+ A frameless function in Linux for s390 & z/Architecture is one which doesn't
+ need more than the register save area (96 bytes on s/390, 160 on z/Architecture)
+ given to it by the caller.
+
+ A frameless function never:
+
+ 1) Sets up a back chain.
+ 2) Calls alloca.
+ 3) Calls other normal functions
+ 4) Has automatics.
+
+GOT-pointer:
+ This is a pointer to the global-offset-table in ELF
+ ( Executable Linkable Format, Linux'es most common executable format ),
+ all globals & shared library objects are found using this pointer.
+
+lazy-binding
+ ELF shared libraries are typically only loaded when routines in the shared
+ library are actually first called at runtime. This is lazy binding.
+
+procedure-linkage-table
+ This is a table found from the GOT which contains pointers to routines
+ in other shared libraries which can't be called to by easier means.
+
+prologue:
+ The code generated by the compiler to set up the stack frame.
+
+outgoing-args:
+ This is extra area allocated on the stack of the calling function if the
+ parameters for the callee's cannot all be put in registers, the same
+ area can be reused by each function the caller calls.
+
+routine-descriptor:
+ A COFF executable format based concept of a procedure reference
+ actually being 8 bytes or more as opposed to a simple pointer to the routine.
+ This is typically defined as follows:
+
+ - Routine Descriptor offset 0=Pointer to Function
+ - Routine Descriptor offset 4=Pointer to Table of Contents
+
+ The table of contents/TOC is roughly equivalent to a GOT pointer.
+ & it means that shared libraries etc. can be shared between several
+ environments each with their own TOC.
+
+static-chain:
+ This is used in nested functions a concept adopted from pascal
+ by gcc not used in ansi C or C++ ( although quite useful ), basically it
+ is a pointer used to reference local variables of enclosing functions.
+ You might come across this stuff once or twice in your lifetime.
+
+ e.g.
+
+ The function below should return 11 though gcc may get upset & toss warnings
+ about unused variables::
+
+ int FunctionA(int a)
+ {
+ int b;
+ FunctionC(int c)
+ {
+ b=c+1;
+ }
+ FunctionC(10);
+ return(b);
+ }

+------
+1) The only requirement is that registers which are used

+ capable of using r11 for purposes other than a frame a
+ frame pointer if a frame pointer is not needed.
+2) In functions with variable arguments e.g. printf the calling procedure
+ is identical to one without variable arguments & the same number of
+ parameters. However, the prologue of this function is somewhat more
+ hairy owing to it having to move these parameters to the stack to
+ get va_start, va_arg & va_end to work.
+3) Access registers are currently unused by gcc but are used in
+ the kernel. Possibilities exist to use them at the moment for
+ temporary storage but it isn't recommended.
+4) Only 4 of the floating point registers are used for
+ parameter passing as older machines such as G3 only have only 4
+ & it keeps the stack frame compatible with other compilers.
+ However with IEEE floating point emulation under linux on the
+ older machines you are free to use the other 12.
+5) A long long or double parameter cannot be have the
+ first 4 bytes in a register & the second four bytes in the
+ outgoing args area. It must be purely in the outgoing args
+ area if crossing this boundary.
+6) Floating point parameters are mixed with outgoing args
+ on the outgoing args area in the order the are passed in as parameters.
+7) Floating point arguments 2 & 3 are saved in the outgoing args area for
+ z/Architecture

+
+Comments on the function test
+-----------------------------
+1) It didn't need to set up a pointer to the constant pool gpr13 as it is not
+ used ( :-( ).
+2) This is a frameless function & no stack is bought.
+3) The compiler was clever enough to recognise that it could return the
+ value in r2 as well as use it for the passed in parameter ( :-) ).
+4) The basr ( branch relative & save ) trick works as follows the instruction
+ has a special case with r0,r0 with some instruction operands is understood as
+ the literal value 0, some risc architectures also do this ). So now
+ we are branching to the next address & the address new program counter is
+ in r13,so now we subtract the size of the function prologue we have executed
+ the size of the literal pool to get to the top of the literal pool::
+
+

+64 bit z/Architecture code disassembly

+
+If you understand the stuff above you'll understand the stuff

+some of the instructions have g's on the end of them to indicate
+they are 64 bit & the stack offsets are a bigger,

+
+Compiling programs for debugging on Linux for s/390 & z/Architecture
+====================================================================
+-gdwarf-2 now works it should be considered the default debugging
+format for s/390 & z/Architecture as it is more reliable for debugging
+shared libraries, normal -g debugging works much better now
+Thanks to the IBM java compiler developers bug reports.
+
+This is typically done adding/appending the flags -g or -gdwarf-2 to the
+CFLAGS & LDFLAGS variables Makefile of the program concerned.
+
+If using gdb & you would like accurate displays of registers &
+stack traces compile without optimisation i.e make sure
+that there is no -O2 or similar on the CFLAGS line of the Makefile &
+the emitted gcc commands, obviously this will produce worse code
+( not advisable for shipment ) but it is an aid to the debugging process.
+
+This aids debugging because the compiler will copy parameters passed in
+in registers onto the stack so backtracing & looking at passed in
+parameters will work, however some larger programs which use inline functions
+will not compile without optimisation.
+
+Debugging with optimisation has since much improved after fixing
+some bugs, please make sure you are using gdb-5.0 or later developed
+after Nov'2000.
+
+
+
+Debugging under VM
+==================
+
+Notes
+-----
+Addresses & values in the VM debugger are always hex never decimal
+Address ranges are of the format <HexValue1>-<HexValue2> or
+<HexValue1>.<HexValue2>
+For example, the address range 0x2000 to 0x3000 can be described as 2000-3000
+or 2000.1000
+
+The VM Debugger is case insensitive.
+
+VM's strengths are usually other debuggers weaknesses you can get at any
+resource no matter how sensitive e.g. memory management resources, change
+address translation in the PSW. For kernel hacking you will reap dividends if
+you get good at it.
+
+The VM Debugger displays operators but not operands, and also the debugger
+displays useful information on the same line as the author of the code probably
+felt that it was a good idea not to go over the 80 columns on the screen.
+This isn't as unintuitive as it may seem as the s/390 instructions are easy to
+decode mentally and you can make a good guess at a lot of them as all the
+operands are nibble (half byte aligned).
+So if you have an objdump listing by hand, it is quite easy to follow, and if
+you don't have an objdump listing keep a copy of the s/390 Reference Summary
+or alternatively the s/390 principles of operation next to you.
+e.g. even I can guess that
+0001AFF8' LR 180F CC 0
+is a ( load register ) lr r0,r15
+
+Also it is very easy to tell the length of a 390 instruction from the 2 most
+significant bits in the instruction (not that this info is really useful except
+if you are trying to make sense of a hexdump of code).
+Here is a table
+
+======================= ==================
+Bits Instruction Length
+======================= ==================
+00 2 Bytes
+01 4 Bytes
+10 4 Bytes
+11 6 Bytes
+======================= ==================
+
+The debugger also displays other useful info on the same line such as the
+addresses being operated on destination addresses of branches & condition codes.
+e.g.::
+
+ 00019736' AHI A7DAFF0E CC 1
+ 000198BA' BRC A7840004 -> 000198C2' CC 0
+ 000198CE' STM 900EF068 >> 0FA95E78 CC 2
+
+
+
+Useful VM debugger commands
+---------------------------
+
+I suppose I'd better mention this before I start
+to list the current active traces do::
+
+ Q TR
+
+there can be a maximum of 255 of these per set
+( more about trace sets later ).
+
+To stop traces issue a::
+
+ TR END.
+
+To delete a particular breakpoint issue::
+
+ TR DEL <breakpoint number>
+
+The PA1 key drops to CP mode so you can issue debugger commands,
+Doing alt c (on my 3270 console at least ) clears the screen.
+
+hitting b <enter> comes back to the running operating system
+from cp mode ( in our case linux ).
+
+It is typically useful to add shortcuts to your profile.exec file
+if you have one ( this is roughly equivalent to autoexec.bat in DOS ).
+file here are a few from mine::
+
+ /* this gives me command history on issuing f12 */
+ set pf12 retrieve
+ /* this continues */
+ set pf8 imm b
+ /* goes to trace set a */
+ set pf1 imm tr goto a
+ /* goes to trace set b */
+ set pf2 imm tr goto b
+ /* goes to trace set c */
+ set pf3 imm tr goto c
+
+
+
+Instruction Tracing
+-------------------
+Setting a simple breakpoint::
+
+ TR I PSWA <address>
+
+To debug a particular function try::
+
+ TR I R <function address range>
+ TR I on its own will single step.
+ TR I DATA <MNEMONIC> <OPTIONAL RANGE> will trace for particular mnemonics
+
+e.g.::
+
+ TR I DATA 4D R 0197BC.4000
+
+will trace for BAS'es ( opcode 4D ) in the range 0197BC.4000
+
+if you were inclined you could add traces for all branch instructions &
+suffix them with the run prefix so you would have a backtrace on screen
+when a program crashes::
+
+ TR BR <INTO OR FROM> will trace branches into or out of an address.
+
+e.g.::
+
+ TR BR INTO 0
+
+is often quite useful if a program is getting awkward & deciding
+to branch to 0 & crashing as this will stop at the address before in jumps to 0.
+
+::
+
+ TR I R <address range> RUN cmd d g
+
+single steps a range of addresses but stays running &
+displays the gprs on each step.
+
+
+
+Displaying & modifying Registers
+--------------------------------
+D G
+ will display all the gprs
+
+Adding a extra G to all the commands is necessary to access the full 64 bit
+content in VM on z/Architecture. Obviously this isn't required for access
+registers as these are still 32 bit.
+
+e.g.
+
+DGG
+ instead of DG
+
+D X
+ will display all the control registers
+D AR
+ will display all the access registers
+D AR4-7
+ will display access registers 4 to 7
+CPU ALL D G
+ will display the GRPS of all CPUS in the configuration
+D PSW
+ will display the current PSW
+st PSW 2000
+ will put the value 2000 into the PSW & cause crash your machine.
+D PREFIX
+ displays the prefix offset
+
+
+Displaying Memory
+-----------------
+To display memory mapped using the current PSW's mapping try::
+
+ D <range>
+
+To make VM display a message each time it hits a particular address and
+continue try:
+
+D I<range>
+ will disassemble/display a range of instructions.
+
+ST addr 32 bit word
+ will store a 32 bit aligned address
+D T<range>
+ will display the EBCDIC in an address (if you are that way inclined)
+D R<range>
+ will display real addresses ( without DAT ) but with prefixing.
+
+There are other complex options to display if you need to get at say home space
+but are in primary space the easiest thing to do is to temporarily
+modify the PSW to the other addressing mode, display the stuff & then
+restore it.
+
+
+
+Hints
+-----
+If you want to issue a debugger command without halting your virtual machine
+with the PA1 key try prefixing the command with #CP e.g.::
+
+ #cp tr i pswa 2000
+
+also suffixing most debugger commands with RUN will cause them not
+to stop just display the mnemonic at the current instruction on the console.
+
+If you have several breakpoints you want to put into your program &
+you get fed up of cross referencing with System.map
+you can do the following trick for several symbols.
+
+::
+
+ grep do_signal System.map
+
+which emits the following among other things::
+
+ 0001f4e0 T do_signal
+
+now you can do::
+
+ TR I PSWA 0001f4e0 cmd msg * do_signal
+
+This sends a message to your own console each time do_signal is entered.
+( As an aside I wrote a perl script once which automatically generated a REXX
+script with breakpoints on every kernel procedure, this isn't a good idea
+because there are thousands of these routines & VM can only set 255 breakpoints
+at a time so you nearly had to spend as long pruning the file down as you would
+entering the msgs by hand), however, the trick might be useful for a single
+object file. In the 3270 terminal emulator x3270 there is a very useful option
+in the file menu called "Save Screen In File" - this is very good for keeping a
+copy of traces.
+
+From CMS help <command name> will give you online help on a particular command.
+e.g.::
+
+ HELP DISPLAY
+
+Also CP has a file called profile.exec which automatically gets called
+on startup of CMS ( like autoexec.bat ), keeping on a DOS analogy session
+CP has a feature similar to doskey, it may be useful for you to
+use profile.exec to define some keystrokes.
+
+SET PF9 IMM B
+ This does a single step in VM on pressing F8.
+
+SET PF10 ^
+ This sets up the ^ key.
+ which can be used for ^c (ctrl-c),^z (ctrl-z) which can't be typed
+ directly into some 3270 consoles.
+
+SET PF11 ^-
+ This types the starting keystrokes for a sysrq see SysRq below.
+SET PF12 RETRIEVE
+ This retrieves command history on pressing F12.
+
+
+Sometimes in VM the display is set up to scroll automatically this
+can be very annoying if there are messages you wish to look at
+to stop this do
+
+TERM MORE 255 255
+ This will nearly stop automatic screen updates, however it will
+ cause a denial of service if lots of messages go to the 3270 console,
+ so it would be foolish to use this as the default on a production machine.
+
+
+Tracing particular processes
+----------------------------
+The kernel's text segment is intentionally at an address in memory that it will
+very seldom collide with text segments of user programs ( thanks Martin ),
+this simplifies debugging the kernel.
+However it is quite common for user processes to have addresses which collide
+this can make debugging a particular process under VM painful under normal
+circumstances as the process may change when doing a::
+
+ TR I R <address range>.
+
+Thankfully after reading VM's online help I figured out how to debug
+I particular process.
+
+Your first problem is to find the STD ( segment table designation )
+of the program you wish to debug.
+There are several ways you can do this here are a few
+
+Run::
+
+ objdump --syms <program to be debugged> | grep main
+
+To get the address of main in the program. Then::
+
+ tr i pswa <address of main>
+
+Start the program, if VM drops to CP on what looks like the entry
+point of the main function this is most likely the process you wish to debug.
+Now do a D X13 or D XG13 on z/Architecture.
+
+On 31 bit the STD is bits 1-19 ( the STO segment table origin )
+& 25-31 ( the STL segment table length ) of CR13.
+
+now type::
+
+ TR I R STD <CR13's value> 0.7fffffff
+
+e.g.::
+
+ TR I R STD 8F32E1FF 0.7fffffff
+
+Another very useful variation is::
+
+ TR STORE INTO STD <CR13's value> <address range>
+
+for finding out when a particular variable changes.
+
+An alternative way of finding the STD of a currently running process
+is to do the following, ( this method is more complex but
+could be quite convenient if you aren't updating the kernel much &
+so your kernel structures will stay constant for a reasonable period of
+time ).
+
+::
+
+ grep task /proc/<pid>/status
+
+from this you should see something like::
+
+ task: 0f160000 ksp: 0f161de8 pt_regs: 0f161f68
+
+This now gives you a pointer to the task structure.
+
+Now make::
+
+ CC:="s390-gcc -g" kernel/sched.s
+
+To get the task_struct stabinfo.
+
+( task_struct is defined in include/linux/sched.h ).
+
+Now we want to look at
+task->active_mm->pgd
+
+on my machine the active_mm in the task structure stab is
+active_mm:(4,12),672,32
+
+its offset is 672/8=84=0x54
+
+the pgd member in the mm_struct stab is
+pgd:(4,6)=*(29,5),96,32
+so its offset is 96/8=12=0xc
+
+so we'll::
+
+ hexdump -s 0xf160054 /dev/mem | more
+
+i.e. task_struct+active_mm offset
+to look at the active_mm member::
+
+ f160054 0fee cc60 0019 e334 0000 0000 0000 0011
+
+::
+
+ hexdump -s 0x0feecc6c /dev/mem | more
+
+i.e. active_mm+pgd offset::
+
+ feecc6c 0f2c 0000 0000 0001 0000 0001 0000 0010
+
+we get something like
+now do::
+
+ TR I R STD <pgd|0x7f> 0.7fffffff
+
+i.e. the 0x7f is added because the pgd only
+gives the page table origin & we need to set the low bits
+to the maximum possible segment table length.
+
+::
+
+ TR I R STD 0f2c007f 0.7fffffff
+
+on z/Architecture you'll probably need to do::
+
+ TR I R STD <pgd|0x7> 0.ffffffffffffffff
+
+to set the TableType to 0x1 & the Table length to 3.
+
+
+
+Tracing Program Exceptions
+--------------------------
+If you get a crash which says something like
+illegal operation or specification exception followed by a register dump
+You can restart linux & trace these using the tr prog <range or value> trace
+option.
+
+
+The most common ones you will normally be tracing for is:
+
+- 1=operation exception
+- 2=privileged operation exception
+- 4=protection exception
+- 5=addressing exception
+- 6=specification exception
+- 10=segment translation exception
+- 11=page translation exception
+
+The full list of these is on page 22 of the current s/390 Reference Summary.
+e.g.
+
+tr prog 10 will trace segment translation exceptions.
+
+tr prog on its own will trace all program interruption codes.
+
+Trace Sets
+----------
+On starting VM you are initially in the INITIAL trace set.
+You can do a Q TR to verify this.
+If you have a complex tracing situation where you wish to wait for instance
+till a driver is open before you start tracing IO, but know in your
+heart that you are going to have to make several runs through the code till you
+have a clue whats going on.
+
+What you can do is::
+
+ TR I PSWA <Driver open address>
+
+hit b to continue till breakpoint
+
+reach the breakpoint
+
+now do your::
+
+ TR GOTO B
+ TR IO 7c08-7c09 inst int run
+
+or whatever the IO channels you wish to trace are & hit b
+
+To got back to the initial trace set do::
+
+ TR GOTO INITIAL
+
+& the TR I PSWA <Driver open address> will be the only active breakpoint again.
+
+
+Tracing linux syscalls under VM
+-------------------------------
+Syscalls are implemented on Linux for S390 by the Supervisor call instruction
+(SVC). There 256 possibilities of these as the instruction is made up of a 0xA
+opcode and the second byte being the syscall number. They are traced using the
+simple command::
+
+ TR SVC <Optional value or range>
+
+the syscalls are defined in linux/arch/s390/include/asm/unistd.h
+e.g. to trace all file opens just do::
+
+ TR SVC 5 ( as this is the syscall number of open )
+
+
+SMP Specific commands
+---------------------
+To find out how many cpus you have
+Q CPUS displays all the CPU's available to your virtual machine
+To find the cpu that the current cpu VM debugger commands are being directed at
+do Q CPU to change the current cpu VM debugger commands are being directed at
+do::
+
+ CPU <desired cpu no>
+
+On a SMP guest issue a command to all CPUs try prefixing the command with cpu

+Help for displaying ascii textstrings
+-------------------------------------
+On the very latest VM Nucleus'es VM can now display ascii
+( thanks Neale for the hint ) by doing::
+
+ D TX<lowaddr>.<len>
+
+e.g.::
+
+ D TX0.100
+
+Alternatively
+=============
+Under older VM debuggers (I love EBDIC too) you can use following little
+program which converts a command line of hex digits to ascii text. It can be
+compiled under linux and you can copy the hex digits from your x3270 terminal
+to your xterm if you are debugging from a linuxbox.
+
+This is quite useful when looking at a parameter passed in as a text string
+under VM ( unless you are good at decoding ASCII in your head ).
+
+e.g. consider tracing an open syscall::
+
+ TR SVC 5
+
+We have stopped at a breakpoint::
+
+ 000151B0' SVC 0A05 -> 0001909A' CC 0
+
+D 20.8 to check the SVC old psw in the prefix area and see was it from userspace
+(for the layout of the prefix area consult the "Fixed Storage Locations"
+chapter of the s/390 Reference Summary if you have it available).
+
+::
+
+ V00000020 070C2000 800151B2
+
+The problem state bit wasn't set & it's also too early in the boot sequence
+for it to be a userspace SVC if it was we would have to temporarily switch the
+psw to user space addressing so we could get at the first parameter of the open
+in gpr2.
+
+Next do a::
+
+ D G2
+ GPR 2 = 00014CB4
+
+Now display what gpr2 is pointing to::
+
+ D 00014CB4.20
+ V00014CB4 2F646576 2F636F6E 736F6C65 00001BF5
+ V00014CC4 FC00014C B4001001 E0001000 B8070707
+
+Now copy the text till the first 00 hex ( which is the end of the string
+to an xterm & do hex2ascii on it::
+
+ hex2ascii 2F646576 2F636F6E 736F6C65 00
+
+outputs::
+
+ Decoded Hex:=/ d e v / c o n s o l e 0x00
+
+We were opening the console device,
+
+You can compile the code below yourself for practice :-),
+
+::
+
+ /*
+ * hex2ascii.c

+ */
+ #include <stdio.h>
+
+ int main(int argc,char *argv[])
+ {
+ int cnt1,cnt2,len,toggle=0;
+ int startcnt=1;
+ unsigned char c,hex;
+
+ if(argc>1&&(strcmp(argv[1],"-a")==0))
+ startcnt=2;
+ printf("Decoded Hex:=");
+ for(cnt1=startcnt;cnt1<argc;cnt1++)
+ {

+ for(cnt2=0;cnt2<len;cnt2++)
+ {
+ c=argv[cnt1][cnt2];
+ if(c>='0'&&c<='9')
+ c=c-'0';
+ if(c>='A'&&c<='F')
+ c=c-'A'+10;
+ if(c>='a'&&c<='f')

+
+Stack tracing under VM
+----------------------
+A basic backtrace
+-----------------
+
+Here are the tricks I use 9 out of 10 times it works pretty well,
+
+When your backchain reaches a dead end
+--------------------------------------
+This can happen when an exception happens in the kernel and the kernel is
+entered twice. If you reach the NULL pointer at the end of the back chain you
+should be able to sniff further back if you follow the following tricks.
+1) A kernel address should be easy to recognise since it is in
+primary space & the problem state bit isn't set & also
+The Hi bit of the address is set.
+2) Another backchain should also be easy to recognise since it is an
+address pointing to another address approximately 100 bytes or 0x70 hex
+behind the current stackpointer.
+
+
+Here is some practice.
+
+boot the kernel & hit PA1 at some random time
+
+d g to display the gprs, this should display something like::
+
+ GPR 0 = 00000001 00156018 0014359C 00000000
+ GPR 4 = 00000001 001B8888 000003E0 00000000
+ GPR 8 = 00100080 00100084 00000000 000FE000
+ GPR 12 = 00010400 8001B2DC 8001B36A 000FFED8
+
+Note that GPR14 is a return address but as we are real men we are going to
+trace the stack.
+display 0x40 bytes after the stack pointer::
+
+ V000FFED8 000FFF38 8001B838 80014C8E 000FFF38
+ V000FFEE8 00000000 00000000 000003E0 00000000
+ V000FFEF8 00100080 00100084 00000000 000FE000
+ V000FFF08 00010400 8001B2DC 8001B36A 000FFED8
+
+
+Ah now look at whats in sp+56 (sp+0x38) this is 8001B36A our saved r14 if
+you look above at our stackframe & also agrees with GPR14.
+
+now backchain::
+
+ d 000FFF38.40
+
+we now are taking the contents of SP to get our first backchain::
+
+ V000FFF38 000FFFA0 00000000 00014995 00147094
+ V000FFF48 00147090 001470A0 000003E0 00000000
+ V000FFF58 00100080 00100084 00000000 001BF1D0
+ V000FFF68 00010400 800149BA 80014CA6 000FFF38
+
+This displays a 2nd return address of 80014CA6
+
+now do::
+
+ d 000FFFA0.40
+
+for our 3rd backchain::
+
+ V000FFFA0 04B52002 0001107F 00000000 00000000
+ V000FFFB0 00000000 00000000 FF000000 0001107F
+ V000FFFC0 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000
+ V000FFFD0 00010400 80010802 8001085A 000FFFA0
+
+
+our 3rd return address is 8001085A
+
+as the 04B52002 looks suspiciously like rubbish it is fair to assume that the
+kernel entry routines for the sake of optimisation don't set up a backchain.
+
+now look at System.map to see if the addresses make any sense::
+
+ grep -i 0001b3 System.map
+
+outputs among other things::
+
+ 0001b304 T cpu_idle
+
+so 8001B36A
+is cpu_idle+0x66 ( quiet the cpu is asleep, don't wake it )
+
+::
+
+ grep -i 00014 System.map
+
+produces among other things::
+
+ 00014a78 T start_kernel
+
+so 0014CA6 is start_kernel+some hex number I can't add in my head.
+
+::
+
+ grep -i 00108 System.map
+
+this produces::
+
+ 00010800 T _stext
+
+so 8001085A is _stext+0x5a
+
+Congrats you've done your first backchain.
+
+
+
+s/390 & z/Architecture IO Overview
+==================================
+
+I am not going to give a course in 390 IO architecture as this would take me
+quite a while and I'm no expert. Instead I'll give a 390 IO architecture
+summary for Dummies. If you have the s/390 principles of operation available
+read this instead. If nothing else you may find a few useful keywords in here
+and be able to use them on a web search engine to find more useful information.
+
+Unlike other bus architectures modern 390 systems do their IO using mostly
+fibre optics and devices such as tapes and disks can be shared between several
+mainframes. Also S390 can support up to 65536 devices while a high end PC based
+system might be choking with around 64.
+
+Here is some of the common IO terminology:
+
+Subchannel:
+ This is the logical number most IO commands use to talk to an IO device. There
+ can be up to 0x10000 (65536) of these in a configuration, typically there are a
+ few hundred. Under VM for simplicity they are allocated contiguously, however
+ on the native hardware they are not. They typically stay consistent between
+ boots provided no new hardware is inserted or removed.
+
+ Under Linux for s390 we use these as IRQ's and also when issuing an IO command
+ (CLEAR SUBCHANNEL, HALT SUBCHANNEL, MODIFY SUBCHANNEL, RESUME SUBCHANNEL,
+ START SUBCHANNEL, STORE SUBCHANNEL and TEST SUBCHANNEL). We use this as the ID
+ of the device we wish to talk to. The most important of these instructions are
+ START SUBCHANNEL (to start IO), TEST SUBCHANNEL (to check whether the IO
+ completed successfully) and HALT SUBCHANNEL (to kill IO). A subchannel can have
+ up to 8 channel paths to a device, this offers redundancy if one is not
+ available.
+
+Device Number:
+ This number remains static and is closely tied to the hardware. There are 65536
+ of these, made up of a CHPID (Channel Path ID, the most significant 8 bits) and
+ another lsb 8 bits. These remain static even if more devices are inserted or
+ removed from the hardware. There is a 1 to 1 mapping between subchannels and
+ device numbers, provided devices aren't inserted or removed.
+
+Channel Control Words:
+ CCWs are linked lists of instructions initially pointed to by an operation
+ request block (ORB), which is initially given to Start Subchannel (SSCH)
+ command along with the subchannel number for the IO subsystem to process
+ while the CPU continues executing normal code.
+ CCWs come in two flavours, Format 0 (24 bit for backward compatibility) and
+ Format 1 (31 bit). These are typically used to issue read and write (and many
+ other) instructions. They consist of a length field and an absolute address
+ field.
+
+ Each IO typically gets 1 or 2 interrupts, one for channel end (primary status)
+ when the channel is idle, and the second for device end (secondary status).
+ Sometimes you get both concurrently. You check how the IO went on by issuing a
+ TEST SUBCHANNEL at each interrupt, from which you receive an Interruption
+ response block (IRB). If you get channel and device end status in the IRB
+ without channel checks etc. your IO probably went okay. If you didn't you
+ probably need to examine the IRB, extended status word etc.
+ If an error occurs, more sophisticated control units have a facility known as
+ concurrent sense. This means that if an error occurs Extended sense information
+ will be presented in the Extended status word in the IRB. If not you have to
+ issue a subsequent SENSE CCW command after the test subchannel.
+
+
+TPI (Test pending interrupt) can also be used for polled IO, but in
+multitasking multiprocessor systems it isn't recommended except for
+checking special cases (i.e. non looping checks for pending IO etc.).
+
+Store Subchannel and Modify Subchannel can be used to examine and modify
+operating characteristics of a subchannel (e.g. channel paths).
+
+Other IO related Terms:
+
+Sysplex:
+ S390's Clustering Technology
+QDIO:
+ S390's new high speed IO architecture to support devices such as gigabit
+ ethernet, this architecture is also designed to be forward compatible with
+ upcoming 64 bit machines.
+
+
+General Concepts
+----------------
+
+Input Output Processors (IOP's) are responsible for communicating between
+the mainframe CPU's & the channel & relieve the mainframe CPU's from the
+burden of communicating with IO devices directly, this allows the CPU's to
+concentrate on data processing.
+
+IOP's can use one or more links ( known as channel paths ) to talk to each
+IO device. It first checks for path availability & chooses an available one,
+then starts ( & sometimes terminates IO ).
+There are two types of channel path: ESCON & the Parallel IO interface.
+
+IO devices are attached to control units, control units provide the
+logic to interface the channel paths & channel path IO protocols to
+the IO devices, they can be integrated with the devices or housed separately
+& often talk to several similar devices ( typical examples would be raid
+controllers or a control unit which connects to 1000 3270 terminals )::

+ CPU = Central Processing Unit
+ C = Channel
+ IOP = IP Processor
+ CU = Control Unit
+
+The 390 IO systems come in 2 flavours the current 390 machines support both
+
+The Older 360 & 370 Interface,sometimes called the Parallel I/O interface,
+sometimes called Bus-and Tag & sometimes Original Equipment Manufacturers
+Interface (OEMI).
+
+This byte wide Parallel channel path/bus has parity & data on the "Bus" cable
+and control lines on the "Tag" cable. These can operate in byte multiplex mode
+for sharing between several slow devices or burst mode and monopolize the
+channel for the whole burst. Up to 256 devices can be addressed on one of these
+cables. These cables are about one inch in diameter. The maximum unextended
+length supported by these cables is 125 Meters but this can be extended up to
+2km with a fibre optic channel extended such as a 3044. The maximum burst speed
+supported is 4.5 megabytes per second. However, some really old processors
+support only transfer rates of 3.0, 2.0 & 1.0 MB/sec.
+One of these paths can be daisy chained to up to 8 control units.
+
+
+ESCON if fibre optic it is also called FICON
+Was introduced by IBM in 1990. Has 2 fibre optic cables and uses either leds or
+lasers for communication at a signaling rate of up to 200 megabits/sec. As
+10bits are transferred for every 8 bits info this drops to 160 megabits/sec
+and to 18.6 Megabytes/sec once control info and CRC are added. ESCON only
+operates in burst mode.
+
+ESCONs typical max cable length is 3km for the led version and 20km for the
+laser version known as XDF (extended distance facility). This can be further
+extended by using an ESCON director which triples the above mentioned ranges.
+Unlike Bus & Tag as ESCON is serial it uses a packet switching architecture,
+the standard Bus & Tag control protocol is however present within the packets.
+Up to 256 devices can be attached to each control unit that uses one of these
+interfaces.
+
+Common 390 Devices include:
+Network adapters typically OSA2,3172's,2116's & OSA-E gigabit ethernet adapters,
+Consoles 3270 & 3215 (a teletype emulated under linux for a line mode console).
+DASD's direct access storage devices ( otherwise known as hard disks ).
+Tape Drives.
+CTC ( Channel to Channel Adapters ),
+ESCON or Parallel Cables used as a very high speed serial link
+between 2 machines.
+
+
+Debugging IO on s/390 & z/Architecture under VM
+===============================================
+
+Now we are ready to go on with IO tracing commands under VM
+
+A few self explanatory queries::
+
+ Q OSA
+ Q CTC
+ Q DISK ( This command is CMS specific )
+ Q DASD
+
+Q OSA on my machine returns::
+
+ OSA 7C08 ON OSA 7C08 SUBCHANNEL = 0000
+ OSA 7C09 ON OSA 7C09 SUBCHANNEL = 0001
+ OSA 7C14 ON OSA 7C14 SUBCHANNEL = 0002
+ OSA 7C15 ON OSA 7C15 SUBCHANNEL = 0003
+
+If you have a guest with certain privileges you may be able to see devices
+which don't belong to you. To avoid this, add the option V.
+e.g.::
+
+ Q V OSA
+
+Now using the device numbers returned by this command we will
+Trace the io starting up on the first device 7c08 & 7c09
+In our simplest case we can trace the
+start subchannels
+like TR SSCH 7C08-7C09
+or the halt subchannels
+or TR HSCH 7C08-7C09
+MSCH's ,STSCH's I think you can guess the rest
+
+A good trick is tracing all the IO's and CCWS and spooling them into the reader
+of another VM guest so he can ftp the logfile back to his own machine. I'll do
+a small bit of this and give you a look at the output.
+
+1) Spool stdout to VM reader::
+
+ SP PRT TO (another vm guest ) or * for the local vm guest
+
+2) Fill the reader with the trace::
+
+ TR IO 7c08-7c09 INST INT CCW PRT RUN
+
+3) Start up linux::
+
+ i 00c
+4) Finish the trace::
+
+ TR END
+
+5) close the reader::
+
+ C PRT
+
+6) list reader contents::
+
+ RDRLIST
+
+7) copy it to linux4's minidisk::
+
+ RECEIVE / LOG TXT A1 ( replace
+
+8)
+filel & press F11 to look at it
+You should see something like::
+
+ 00020942' SSCH B2334000 0048813C CC 0 SCH 0000 DEV 7C08
+ CPA 000FFDF0 PARM 00E2C9C4 KEY 0 FPI C0 LPM 80
+ CCW 000FFDF0 E4200100 00487FE8 0000 E4240100 ........
+ IDAL 43D8AFE8
+ IDAL 0FB76000
+ 00020B0A' I/O DEV 7C08 -> 000197BC' SCH 0000 PARM 00E2C9C4
+ 00021628' TSCH B2354000 >> 00488164 CC 0 SCH 0000 DEV 7C08
+ CCWA 000FFDF8 DEV STS 0C SCH STS 00 CNT 00EC
+ KEY 0 FPI C0 CC 0 CTLS 4007
+ 00022238' STSCH B2344000 >> 00488108 CC 0 SCH 0000 DEV 7C08
+
+If you don't like messing up your readed ( because you possibly booted from it )
+you can alternatively spool it to another readers guest.
+
+
+Other common VM device related commands
+---------------------------------------------
+These commands are listed only because they have
+been of use to me in the past & may be of use to
+you too. For more complete info on each of the commands
+use type HELP <command> from CMS.
+
+detaching devices::
+
+ DET <devno range>
+ ATT <devno range> <guest>
+
+attach a device to guest * for your own guest
+
+READY <devno>
+ cause VM to issue a fake interrupt.
+
+The VARY command is normally only available to VM administrators::
+
+ VARY ON PATH <path> TO <devno range>
+ VARY OFF PATH <PATH> FROM <devno range>
+
+This is used to switch on or off channel paths to devices.
+
+Q CHPID <channel path ID>
+ This displays state of devices using this channel path
+
+D SCHIB <subchannel>
+ This displays the subchannel information SCHIB block for the device.
+ this I believe is also only available to administrators.
+
+DEFINE CTC <devno>
+ defines a virtual CTC channel to channel connection
+ 2 need to be defined on each guest for the CTC driver to use.
+
+COUPLE devno userid remote devno
+ Joins a local virtual device to a remote virtual device
+ ( commonly used for the CTC driver ).
+
+Building a VM ramdisk under CMS which linux can use::
+
+ def vfb-<blocksize> <subchannel> <number blocks>
+
+blocksize is commonly 4096 for linux.
+
+Formatting it::
+
+ format <subchannel> <driver letter e.g. x> (blksize <blocksize>
+
+Sharing a disk between multiple guests::
+
+ LINK userid devno1 devno2 mode password

+
+condition: ( another useful one )
+ Specify breakpoint number N to break only if COND is true.
+
+Usage is `condition N COND`, where N is an integer and COND is an
+expression to be evaluated whenever breakpoint N is reached.
+
+
+
+User defined functions/macros
+-----------------------------
+define: ( Note this is very very useful,simple & powerful )
+
+usage define <name> <list of commands> end
+
+examples which you should consider putting into .gdbinit in your home
+directory::
+
+ define d
+ stepi
+ disassemble $pc $pc+10
+ end
+ define e
+ nexti
+ disassemble $pc $pc+10
+ end
+
+
+Other hard to classify stuff
+----------------------------
+signal n:
+ sends the victim program a signal.
+
+e.g. `signal 3` will send a SIGQUIT.
+
+info signals:
+ what gdb does when the victim receives certain signals.
+
+list:
+
+e.g.:
+
+list
+ lists current function source
+list 1,10
+ list first 10 lines of current file.
+
+list test.c:1,10
+
+
+directory:
+ Adds directories to be searched for source if gdb cannot find the source.
+ (note it is a bit sensitive about slashes)
+
+e.g. To add the root of the filesystem to the searchpath do::
+
+ directory //
+
+
+call <function>
+This calls a function in the victim program, this is pretty powerful
+e.g.
+(gdb) call printf("hello world")
+outputs:
+$1 = 11
+
+You might now be thinking that the line above didn't work, something extra had
+to be done.
+(gdb) call fflush(stdout)
+hello world$2 = 0
+As an aside the debugger also calls malloc & free under the hood
+to make space for the "hello world" string.
+
+
+
+hints
+-----
+1) command completion works just like bash
+ ( if you are a bad typist like me this really helps )
+
+e.g. hit br <TAB> & cursor up & down :-).
+
+2) if you have a debugging problem that takes a few steps to recreate
+put the steps into a file called .gdbinit in your current working directory
+if you have defined a few extra useful user defined commands put these in
+your home directory & they will be read each time gdb is launched.
+
+A typical .gdbinit file might be.::
+
+ break main
+ run
+ break runtime_exception
+ cont
+
+
+stack chaining in gdb by hand
+-----------------------------
+This is done using a the same trick described for VM::
+
+ p/x (*($sp+56))&0x7fffffff
+
+get the first backchain.
+
+For z/Architecture
+Replace 56 with 112 & ignore the &0x7fffffff
+in the macros below & do nasty casts to longs like the following
+as gdb unfortunately deals with printed arguments as ints which
+messes up everything.
+
+i.e. here is a 3rd backchain dereference::
+
+ p/x *(long *)(***(long ***)$sp+112)
+
+
+this outputs::
+
+ $5 = 0x528f18
+
+on my machine.
+
+Now you can use::
+
+ info symbol (*($sp+56))&0x7fffffff
+
+you might see something like::
+
+ rl_getc + 36 in section .text
+
+telling you what is located at address 0x528f18
+Now do::
+
+ p/x (*(*$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
+
+This outputs::
+
+ $6 = 0x528ed0
+
+Now do::
+
+ info symbol (*(*$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
+ rl_read_key + 180 in section .text
+
+now do::
+
+ p/x (*(**$sp+56))&0x7fffffff
+
+& so on.
+
+Disassembling instructions without debug info
+---------------------------------------------
+gdb typically complains if there is a lack of debugging
+symbols in the disassemble command with
+"No function contains specified address." To get around
+this do::
+
+ x/<number lines to disassemble>xi <address>
+
+e.g.::
+
+ x/20xi 0x400730
+
+
+
+Note:
+ Remember gdb has history just like bash you don't need to retype the
+ whole line just use the up & down arrows.
+
+
+
+For more info
+-------------
+From your linuxbox do::
+
+ man gdb
+
+or::
+
+ info gdb.
+
+core dumps
+----------
+
+What a core dump ?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+A core dump is a file generated by the kernel (if allowed) which contains the
+registers and all active pages of the program which has crashed.
+
+From this file gdb will allow you to look at the registers, stack trace and
+memory of the program as if it just crashed on your system. It is usually
+called core and created in the current working directory.
+
+This is very useful in that a customer can mail a core dump to a technical
+support department and the technical support department can reconstruct what
+happened. Provided they have an identical copy of this program with debugging
+symbols compiled in and the source base of this build is available.
+
+In short it is far more useful than something like a crash log could ever hope
+to be.
+
+Why have I never seen one ?
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Probably because you haven't used the command::
+
+ ulimit -c unlimited in bash
+
+to allow core dumps, now do::
+
+ ulimit -a
+
+to verify that the limit was accepted.
+
+A sample core dump
+ To create this I'm going to do::
+
+ ulimit -c unlimited
+ gdb
+
+to launch gdb (my victim app. ) now be bad & do the following from another
+telnet/xterm session to the same machine::
+
+ ps -aux | grep gdb
+ kill -SIGSEGV <gdb's pid>
+
+or alternatively use `killall -SIGSEGV gdb` if you have the killall command.
+
+Now look at the core dump::
+
+ ./gdb core
+
+Displays the following::

+
+LDD
+===
+This is a program which lists the shared libraries which a library needs,
+Note you also get the relocations of the shared library text segments which
+help when using objdump --source.
+
+e.g.::
+
+ ldd ./gdb
+
+outputs::
+
+ libncurses.so.4 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.4 (0x40018000)
+ libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4005e000)
+ libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40084000)
+ /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
+
+
+Debugging shared libraries
+==========================
+Most programs use shared libraries, however it can be very painful
+when you single step instruction into a function like printf for the
+first time & you end up in functions like _dl_runtime_resolve this is
+the ld.so doing lazy binding, lazy binding is a concept in ELF where
+shared library functions are not loaded into memory unless they are
+actually used, great for saving memory but a pain to debug.
+
+To get around this either relink the program -static or exit gdb type
+export LD_BIND_NOW=true this will stop lazy binding & restart the gdb'ing
+the program in question.
+
+
+
+Debugging modules
+=================
+As modules are dynamically loaded into the kernel their address can be
+anywhere to get around this use the -m option with insmod to emit a load
+map which can be piped into a file if required.
+
+The proc file system
+====================
+What is it ?.
+It is a filesystem created by the kernel with files which are created on demand
+by the kernel if read, or can be used to modify kernel parameters,
+it is a powerful concept.
+
+e.g.::
+
+ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
+
+On my machine outputs::
+
+ 0
+
+telling me ip_forwarding is not on to switch it on I can do::
+
+ echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
+
+cat it again::
+
+ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
+
+On my machine now outputs::
+
+ 1
+
+IP forwarding is on.
+
+There is a lot of useful info in here best found by going in and having a look
+around, so I'll take you through some entries I consider important.
+
+All the processes running on the machine have their own entry defined by
+/proc/<pid>
+
+So lets have a look at the init process::
+
+ cd /proc/1
+ cat cmdline
+
+emits::
+
+ init [2]
+
+::
+
+ cd /proc/1/fd
+
+This contains numerical entries of all the open files,
+some of these you can cat e.g. stdout (2)::
+
+ cat /proc/29/maps
+
+on my machine emits::
+
+ 00400000-00478000 r-xp 00000000 5f:00 4103 /bin/bash

+
+
+Showing us the shared libraries init uses where they are in memory
+& memory access permissions for each virtual memory area.
+
+/proc/1/cwd is a softlink to the current working directory.
+
+/proc/1/root is the root of the filesystem for this process.
+
+/proc/1/mem is the current running processes memory which you
+can read & write to like a file.
+
+strace uses this sometimes as it is a bit faster than the
+rather inefficient ptrace interface for peeking at DATA.

+
+Some driver debugging techniques
+================================
+debug feature
+-------------
+Some of our drivers now support a "debug feature" in
+/proc/s390dbf see s390dbf.txt in the linux/Documentation directory
+for more info.
+
+e.g.
+to switch on the lcs "debug feature"::
+
+ echo 5 > /proc/s390dbf/lcs/level
+
+& then after the error occurred::
+
+ cat /proc/s390dbf/lcs/sprintf >/logfile
+
+the logfile now contains some information which may help
+tech support resolve a problem in the field.
+
+
+
+high level debugging network drivers
+------------------------------------
+ifconfig is a quite useful command
+it gives the current state of network drivers.
+
+If you suspect your network device driver is dead
+one way to check is type::
+
+ ifconfig <network device>
+
+e.g. tr0
+
+You should see something like::
+
+ ifconfig tr0
+ tr0 Link encap:16/4 Mbps Token Ring (New) HWaddr 00:04:AC:20:8E:48
+ inet addr:9.164.185.132 Bcast:9.164.191.255 Mask:255.255.224.0
+ UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:2000 Metric:1
+ RX packets:246134 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
+ TX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
+ collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
+
+if the device doesn't say up
+try::
+
+ /etc/rc.d/init.d/network start
+
+( this starts the network stack & hopefully calls ifconfig tr0 up ).
+ifconfig looks at the output of /proc/net/dev and presents it in a more
+presentable form.
+
+Now ping the device from a machine in the same subnet.
+
+if the RX packets count & TX packets counts don't increment you probably
+have problems.
+
+next::
+
+ cat /proc/net/arp
+
+Do you see any hardware addresses in the cache if not you may have problems.
+Next try::
+
+ ping -c 5 <broadcast_addr>
+
+i.e. the Bcast field above in the output of
+ifconfig. Do you see any replies from machines other than the local machine
+if not you may have problems. also if the TX packets count in ifconfig
+hasn't incremented either you have serious problems in your driver
+(e.g. the txbusy field of the network device being stuck on )
+or you may have multiple network devices connected.
+
+
+chandev
+-------
+There is a new device layer for channel devices, some
+drivers e.g. lcs are registered with this layer.
+
+If the device uses the channel device layer you'll be
+able to find what interrupts it uses & the current state
+of the device.
+
+See the manpage chandev.8 &type cat /proc/chandev for more info.
+
+
+SysRq
+=====
+This is now supported by linux for s/390 & z/Architecture.
+
+To enable it do compile the kernel with::
+
+ Kernel Hacking -> Magic SysRq Key Enabled
+
+Then::
+
+ echo "1" > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
+
+also type::
+
+ echo "8" >/proc/sys/kernel/printk
+
+To make printk output go to console.
+
+On 390 all commands are prefixed with::
+
+ ^-
+
+e.g.::
+
+ ^-t will show tasks.
+ ^-? or some unknown command will display help.
+
+The sysrq key reading is very picky ( I have to type the keys in an
+xterm session & paste them into the x3270 console )
+& it may be wise to predefine the keys as described in the VM hints above
+
+This is particularly useful for syncing disks unmounting & rebooting
+if the machine gets partially hung.
+
+Read Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst for more info

+S390 Debug Feature
+==================
+
+files:
+ - arch/s390/kernel/debug.c
+ - arch/s390/include/asm/debug.h
+
+Description:
+------------
+The goal of this feature is to provide a kernel debug logging API
+where log records can be stored efficiently in memory, where each component
+(e.g. device drivers) can have one separate debug log.
+One purpose of this is to inspect the debug logs after a production system crash
+in order to analyze the reason for the crash.
+
+If the system still runs but only a subcomponent which uses dbf fails,
+it is possible to look at the debug logs on a live system via the Linux
+debugfs filesystem.
+
+The debug feature may also very useful for kernel and driver development.
+
+Design:
+-------
+Kernel components (e.g. device drivers) can register themselves at the debug
+feature with the function call :c:func:`debug_register()`.
+This function initializes a
+debug log for the caller. For each debug log exists a number of debug areas
+where exactly one is active at one time. Each debug area consists of contiguous
+pages in memory. In the debug areas there are stored debug entries (log records)
+which are written by event- and exception-calls.
+
+An event-call writes the specified debug entry to the active debug
+area and updates the log pointer for the active area. If the end
+of the active debug area is reached, a wrap around is done (ring buffer)
+and the next debug entry will be written at the beginning of the active
+debug area.
+
+An exception-call writes the specified debug entry to the log and
+switches to the next debug area. This is done in order to be sure
+that the records which describe the origin of the exception are not
+overwritten when a wrap around for the current area occurs.
+
+The debug areas themselves are also ordered in form of a ring buffer.
+When an exception is thrown in the last debug area, the following debug
+entries are then written again in the very first area.
+
+There are four versions for the event- and exception-calls: One for
+logging raw data, one for text, one for numbers (unsigned int and long),
+and one for sprintf-like formatted strings.
+
+Each debug entry contains the following data:
+
+- Timestamp
+- Cpu-Number of calling task
+- Level of debug entry (0...6)
+- Return Address to caller
+- Flag, if entry is an exception or not
+
+The debug logs can be inspected in a live system through entries in
+the debugfs-filesystem. Under the toplevel directory "``s390dbf``" there is
+a directory for each registered component, which is named like the
+corresponding component. The debugfs normally should be mounted to
+``/sys/kernel/debug`` therefore the debug feature can be accessed under
+``/sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf``.
+
+The content of the directories are files which represent different views
+to the debug log. Each component can decide which views should be
+used through registering them with the function :c:func:`debug_register_view()`.
+Predefined views for hex/ascii, sprintf and raw binary data are provided.
+It is also possible to define other views. The content of
+a view can be inspected simply by reading the corresponding debugfs file.
+
+All debug logs have an actual debug level (range from 0 to 6).
+The default level is 3. Event and Exception functions have a :c:data:`level`
+parameter. Only debug entries with a level that is lower or equal
+than the actual level are written to the log. This means, when
+writing events, high priority log entries should have a low level
+value whereas low priority entries should have a high one.
+The actual debug level can be changed with the help of the debugfs-filesystem
+through writing a number string "x" to the ``level`` debugfs file which is
+provided for every debug log. Debugging can be switched off completely
+by using "-" on the ``level`` debugfs file.
+
+Example::
+
+ > echo "-" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
+
+It is also possible to deactivate the debug feature globally for every
+debug log. You can change the behavior using 2 sysctl parameters in
+``/proc/sys/s390dbf``:
+
+There are currently 2 possible triggers, which stop the debug feature
+globally. The first possibility is to use the ``debug_active`` sysctl. If
+set to 1 the debug feature is running. If ``debug_active`` is set to 0 the
+debug feature is turned off.
+
+The second trigger which stops the debug feature is a kernel oops.
+That prevents the debug feature from overwriting debug information that
+happened before the oops. After an oops you can reactivate the debug feature
+by piping 1 to ``/proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_active``. Nevertheless, it's not
+suggested to use an oopsed kernel in a production environment.
+
+If you want to disallow the deactivation of the debug feature, you can use
+the ``debug_stoppable`` sysctl. If you set ``debug_stoppable`` to 0 the debug
+feature cannot be stopped. If the debug feature is already stopped, it
+will stay deactivated.

+Flushing debug areas
+--------------------
+Debug areas can be flushed with piping the number of the desired
+area (0...n) to the debugfs file "flush". When using "-" all debug areas
+are flushed.
+
+Examples:
+
+1. Flush debug area 0::
+
+ > echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
+
+2. Flush all debug areas::
+
+ > echo "-" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
+
+Changing the size of debug areas
+------------------------------------
+It is possible the change the size of debug areas through piping
+the number of pages to the debugfs file "pages". The resize request will
+also flush the debug areas.
+
+Example:
+
+Define 4 pages for the debug areas of debug feature "dasd"::
+
+ > echo "4" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/pages
+
+Stopping the debug feature
+--------------------------
+Example:
+
+1. Check if stopping is allowed::
+
+ > cat /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_stoppable
+
+2. Stop debug feature::
+
+ > echo 0 > /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_active
+
+crash Interface
+----------------
+The ``crash`` tool since v5.1.0 has a built-in command
+``s390dbf`` to display all the debug logs or export them to the file system.
+With this tool it is possible
+to investigate the debug logs on a live system and with a memory dump after
+a system crash.
+
+Investigating raw memory
+------------------------
+One last possibility to investigate the debug logs at a live
+system and after a system crash is to look at the raw memory
+under VM or at the Service Element.
+It is possible to find the anchor of the debug-logs through
+the ``debug_area_first`` symbol in the System map. Then one has
+to follow the correct pointers of the data-structures defined
+in debug.h and find the debug-areas in memory.
+Normally modules which use the debug feature will also have
+a global variable with the pointer to the debug-logs. Following
+this pointer it will also be possible to find the debug logs in
+memory.
+
+For this method it is recommended to use '16 * x + 4' byte (x = 0..n)
+for the length of the data field in :c:func:`debug_register()` in
+order to see the debug entries well formatted.
+
+
+Predefined Views
+----------------
+
+There are three predefined views: hex_ascii, raw and sprintf.
+The hex_ascii view shows the data field in hex and ascii representation
+(e.g. ``45 43 4b 44 | ECKD``).
+The raw view returns a bytestream as the debug areas are stored in memory.
+
+The sprintf view formats the debug entries in the same way as the sprintf
+function would do. The sprintf event/exception functions write to the
+debug entry a pointer to the format string (size = sizeof(long))
+and for each vararg a long value. So e.g. for a debug entry with a format
+string plus two varargs one would need to allocate a (3 * sizeof(long))
+byte data area in the debug_register() function.
+
+IMPORTANT:
+ Using "%s" in sprintf event functions is dangerous. You can only
+ use "%s" in the sprintf event functions, if the memory for the passed string
+ is available as long as the debug feature exists. The reason behind this is
+ that due to performance considerations only a pointer to the string is stored
+ in the debug feature. If you log a string that is freed afterwards, you will
+ get an OOPS when inspecting the debug feature, because then the debug feature
+ will access the already freed memory.
+
+NOTE:
+ If using the sprintf view do NOT use other event/exception functions
+ than the sprintf-event and -exception functions.
+
+The format of the hex_ascii and sprintf view is as follows:
+
+- Number of area
+- Timestamp (formatted as seconds and microseconds since 00:00:00 Coordinated
+ Universal Time (UTC), January 1, 1970)
+- level of debug entry
+- Exception flag (* = Exception)
+- Cpu-Number of calling task
+- Return Address to caller
+- data field
+
+The format of the raw view is:
+
+- Header as described in debug.h
+- datafield
+
+A typical line of the hex_ascii view will look like the following (first line
+is only for explanation and will not be displayed when 'cating' the view)::
+
+ area time level exception cpu caller data (hex + ascii)

+
+
+Defining views
+--------------
+
+Views are specified with the 'debug_view' structure. There are defined
+callback functions which are used for reading and writing the debugfs files:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct debug_view {
+ char name[DEBUG_MAX_PROCF_LEN];
+ debug_prolog_proc_t* prolog_proc;
+ debug_header_proc_t* header_proc;
+ debug_format_proc_t* format_proc;
+ debug_input_proc_t* input_proc;
+ void* private_data;
+ };
+
+where:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef int (debug_header_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
+ struct debug_view* view,
+ int area,
+ debug_entry_t* entry,
+ char* out_buf);
+
+ typedef int (debug_format_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
+ struct debug_view* view, char* out_buf,
+ const char* in_buf);
+ typedef int (debug_prolog_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
+ struct debug_view* view,
+ char* out_buf);
+ typedef int (debug_input_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
+ struct debug_view* view,
+ struct file* file, const char* user_buf,
+ size_t in_buf_size, loff_t* offset);
+
+
+The "private_data" member can be used as pointer to view specific data.
+It is not used by the debug feature itself.
+
+The output when reading a debugfs file is structured like this::
+
+ "prolog_proc output"
+
+ "header_proc output 1" "format_proc output 1"
+ "header_proc output 2" "format_proc output 2"
+ "header_proc output 3" "format_proc output 3"
+ ...
+
+When a view is read from the debugfs, the Debug Feature calls the
+'prolog_proc' once for writing the prolog.
+Then 'header_proc' and 'format_proc' are called for each
+existing debug entry.
+
+The input_proc can be used to implement functionality when it is written to
+the view (e.g. like with ``echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level``).
+
+For header_proc there can be used the default function
+:c:func:`debug_dflt_header_fn()` which is defined in debug.h.
+and which produces the same header output as the predefined views.
+E.g::
+
+ 00 00964419409:440761 2 - 00 88023ec
+
+In order to see how to use the callback functions check the implementation
+of the default views!
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ #include <asm/debug.h>
+
+ #define UNKNOWNSTR "data: %08x"
+
+ const char* messages[] =
+ {"This error...........\n",
+ "That error...........\n",
+ "Problem..............\n",
+ "Something went wrong.\n",
+ "Everything ok........\n",
+ NULL
+ };
+
+ static int debug_test_format_fn(
+ debug_info_t *id, struct debug_view *view,
+ char *out_buf, const char *in_buf
+ )
+ {
+ int i, rc = 0;
+
+ if (id->buf_size >= 4) {
+ int msg_nr = *((int*)in_buf);
+ if (msg_nr < sizeof(messages) / sizeof(char*) - 1)
+ rc += sprintf(out_buf, "%s", messages[msg_nr]);
+ else
+ rc += sprintf(out_buf, UNKNOWNSTR, msg_nr);
+ }
+ return rc;
+ }
+
+ struct debug_view debug_test_view = {
+ "myview", /* name of view */
+ NULL, /* no prolog */
+ &debug_dflt_header_fn, /* default header for each entry */
+ &debug_test_format_fn, /* our own format function */
+ NULL, /* no input function */
+ NULL /* no private data */
+ };
+
+test:
+=====
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ debug_info_t *debug_info;
+ int i;
+ ...
+ debug_info = debug_register("test", 0, 4, 4);
+ debug_register_view(debug_info, &debug_test_view);
+ for (i = 0; i < 10; i ++)
+ debug_int_event(debug_info, 1, i);

-S390 Debug Feature
-==================
-
-files: arch/s390/kernel/debug.c
- arch/s390/include/asm/debug.h
-
-Description:
-------------
-The goal of this feature is to provide a kernel debug logging API
-where log records can be stored efficiently in memory, where each component
-(e.g. device drivers) can have one separate debug log.
-One purpose of this is to inspect the debug logs after a production system crash
-in order to analyze the reason for the crash.
-If the system still runs but only a subcomponent which uses dbf fails,
-it is possible to look at the debug logs on a live system via the Linux
-debugfs filesystem.
-The debug feature may also very useful for kernel and driver development.
-
-Design:
--------
-Kernel components (e.g. device drivers) can register themselves at the debug
-feature with the function call debug_register(). This function initializes a
-debug log for the caller. For each debug log exists a number of debug areas
-where exactly one is active at one time. Each debug area consists of contiguous
-pages in memory. In the debug areas there are stored debug entries (log records)
-which are written by event- and exception-calls.
-
-An event-call writes the specified debug entry to the active debug
-area and updates the log pointer for the active area. If the end
-of the active debug area is reached, a wrap around is done (ring buffer)
-and the next debug entry will be written at the beginning of the active
-debug area.
-
-An exception-call writes the specified debug entry to the log and
-switches to the next debug area. This is done in order to be sure
-that the records which describe the origin of the exception are not
-overwritten when a wrap around for the current area occurs.
-
-The debug areas themselves are also ordered in form of a ring buffer.
-When an exception is thrown in the last debug area, the following debug
-entries are then written again in the very first area.
-
-There are three versions for the event- and exception-calls: One for
-logging raw data, one for text and one for numbers.
-
-Each debug entry contains the following data:
-
-- Timestamp
-- Cpu-Number of calling task
-- Level of debug entry (0...6)
-- Return Address to caller
-- Flag, if entry is an exception or not
-
-The debug logs can be inspected in a live system through entries in
-the debugfs-filesystem. Under the toplevel directory "s390dbf" there is
-a directory for each registered component, which is named like the
-corresponding component. The debugfs normally should be mounted to
-/sys/kernel/debug therefore the debug feature can be accessed under
-/sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf.
-
-The content of the directories are files which represent different views
-to the debug log. Each component can decide which views should be
-used through registering them with the function debug_register_view().
-Predefined views for hex/ascii, sprintf and raw binary data are provided.
-It is also possible to define other views. The content of
-a view can be inspected simply by reading the corresponding debugfs file.
-
-All debug logs have an actual debug level (range from 0 to 6).
-The default level is 3. Event and Exception functions have a 'level'
-parameter. Only debug entries with a level that is lower or equal
-than the actual level are written to the log. This means, when
-writing events, high priority log entries should have a low level
-value whereas low priority entries should have a high one.
-The actual debug level can be changed with the help of the debugfs-filesystem
-through writing a number string "x" to the 'level' debugfs file which is
-provided for every debug log. Debugging can be switched off completely
-by using "-" on the 'level' debugfs file.
-
-Example:
-
-> echo "-" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
-
-It is also possible to deactivate the debug feature globally for every
-debug log. You can change the behavior using 2 sysctl parameters in
-/proc/sys/s390dbf:
-There are currently 2 possible triggers, which stop the debug feature
-globally. The first possibility is to use the "debug_active" sysctl. If
-set to 1 the debug feature is running. If "debug_active" is set to 0 the
-debug feature is turned off.
-The second trigger which stops the debug feature is a kernel oops.
-That prevents the debug feature from overwriting debug information that
-happened before the oops. After an oops you can reactivate the debug feature
-by piping 1 to /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_active. Nevertheless, its not
-suggested to use an oopsed kernel in a production environment.
-If you want to disallow the deactivation of the debug feature, you can use
-the "debug_stoppable" sysctl. If you set "debug_stoppable" to 0 the debug
-feature cannot be stopped. If the debug feature is already stopped, it
-will stay deactivated.

-Changing the debug level
-------------------------
-
-Example:
-
-
-> cat /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
-3
-> echo "5" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
-> cat /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level
-5
-
-Flushing debug areas
---------------------
-Debug areas can be flushed with piping the number of the desired
-area (0...n) to the debugfs file "flush". When using "-" all debug areas
-are flushed.
-
-Examples:
-
-1. Flush debug area 0:
-> echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
-
-2. Flush all debug areas:
-> echo "-" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/flush
-
-Changing the size of debug areas
-------------------------------------
-It is possible the change the size of debug areas through piping
-the number of pages to the debugfs file "pages". The resize request will
-also flush the debug areas.
-
-Example:
-
-Define 4 pages for the debug areas of debug feature "dasd":
-> echo "4" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/pages
-
-Stooping the debug feature
---------------------------
-Example:
-
-1. Check if stopping is allowed
-> cat /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_stoppable
-2. Stop debug feature
-> echo 0 > /proc/sys/s390dbf/debug_active
-
-lcrash Interface
-----------------
-It is planned that the dump analysis tool lcrash gets an additional command
-'s390dbf' to display all the debug logs. With this tool it will be possible
-to investigate the debug logs on a live system and with a memory dump after
-a system crash.
-
-Investigating raw memory
-------------------------
-One last possibility to investigate the debug logs at a live
-system and after a system crash is to look at the raw memory
-under VM or at the Service Element.
-It is possible to find the anker of the debug-logs through
-the 'debug_area_first' symbol in the System map. Then one has
-to follow the correct pointers of the data-structures defined
-in debug.h and find the debug-areas in memory.
-Normally modules which use the debug feature will also have
-a global variable with the pointer to the debug-logs. Following
-this pointer it will also be possible to find the debug logs in
-memory.
-
-For this method it is recommended to use '16 * x + 4' byte (x = 0..n)
-for the length of the data field in debug_register() in
-order to see the debug entries well formatted.
-
-
-Predefined Views
-----------------
-
-There are three predefined views: hex_ascii, raw and sprintf.
-The hex_ascii view shows the data field in hex and ascii representation
-(e.g. '45 43 4b 44 | ECKD').
-The raw view returns a bytestream as the debug areas are stored in memory.
-
-The sprintf view formats the debug entries in the same way as the sprintf
-function would do. The sprintf event/exception functions write to the
-debug entry a pointer to the format string (size = sizeof(long))
-and for each vararg a long value. So e.g. for a debug entry with a format
-string plus two varargs one would need to allocate a (3 * sizeof(long))
-byte data area in the debug_register() function.
-
-IMPORTANT: Using "%s" in sprintf event functions is dangerous. You can only
-use "%s" in the sprintf event functions, if the memory for the passed string is
-available as long as the debug feature exists. The reason behind this is that
-due to performance considerations only a pointer to the string is stored in
-the debug feature. If you log a string that is freed afterwards, you will get
-an OOPS when inspecting the debug feature, because then the debug feature will
-access the already freed memory.
-
-NOTE: If using the sprintf view do NOT use other event/exception functions
-than the sprintf-event and -exception functions.
-
-The format of the hex_ascii and sprintf view is as follows:
-- Number of area
-- Timestamp (formatted as seconds and microseconds since 00:00:00 Coordinated
- Universal Time (UTC), January 1, 1970)
-- level of debug entry
-- Exception flag (* = Exception)
-- Cpu-Number of calling task
-- Return Address to caller
-- data field
-
-The format of the raw view is:
-- Header as described in debug.h
-- datafield
-
-A typical line of the hex_ascii view will look like the following (first line
-is only for explanation and will not be displayed when 'cating' the view):
-
-area time level exception cpu caller data (hex + ascii)

-Defining views
---------------
-
-Views are specified with the 'debug_view' structure. There are defined
-callback functions which are used for reading and writing the debugfs files:
-
-struct debug_view {
- char name[DEBUG_MAX_PROCF_LEN];
- debug_prolog_proc_t* prolog_proc;
- debug_header_proc_t* header_proc;
- debug_format_proc_t* format_proc;
- debug_input_proc_t* input_proc;
- void* private_data;
-};
-
-where
-
-typedef int (debug_header_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- int area,
- debug_entry_t* entry,
- char* out_buf);
-
-typedef int (debug_format_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view, char* out_buf,
- const char* in_buf);
-typedef int (debug_prolog_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- char* out_buf);
-typedef int (debug_input_proc_t) (debug_info_t* id,
- struct debug_view* view,
- struct file* file, const char* user_buf,
- size_t in_buf_size, loff_t* offset);
-
-
-The "private_data" member can be used as pointer to view specific data.
-It is not used by the debug feature itself.
-
-The output when reading a debugfs file is structured like this:
-
-"prolog_proc output"
-
-"header_proc output 1" "format_proc output 1"
-"header_proc output 2" "format_proc output 2"
-"header_proc output 3" "format_proc output 3"
-...
-
-When a view is read from the debugfs, the Debug Feature calls the
-'prolog_proc' once for writing the prolog.
-Then 'header_proc' and 'format_proc' are called for each
-existing debug entry.
-
-The input_proc can be used to implement functionality when it is written to
-the view (e.g. like with 'echo "0" > /sys/kernel/debug/s390dbf/dasd/level).
-
-For header_proc there can be used the default function
-debug_dflt_header_fn() which is defined in debug.h.
-and which produces the same header output as the predefined views.
-E.g:
-00 00964419409:440761 2 - 00 88023ec
-
-In order to see how to use the callback functions check the implementation
-of the default views!
-
-Example
-
-#include <asm/debug.h>
-
-#define UNKNOWNSTR "data: %08x"
-
-const char* messages[] =
-{"This error...........\n",
- "That error...........\n",
- "Problem..............\n",
- "Something went wrong.\n",
- "Everything ok........\n",
- NULL
-};
-
-static int debug_test_format_fn(
- debug_info_t * id, struct debug_view *view,
- char *out_buf, const char *in_buf
-)
-{
- int i, rc = 0;
-
- if(id->buf_size >= 4) {
- int msg_nr = *((int*)in_buf);
- if(msg_nr < sizeof(messages)/sizeof(char*) - 1)
- rc += sprintf(out_buf, "%s", messages[msg_nr]);
- else
- rc += sprintf(out_buf, UNKNOWNSTR, msg_nr);
- }
- out:
- return rc;
-}
-
-struct debug_view debug_test_view = {
- "myview", /* name of view */

- &debug_dflt_header_fn, /* default header for each entry */
