Write a 1 to force the device to disconnect
(equivalent to unplugging a wired USB device).
What: /sys/bus/usb/drivers/.../remove_id
Date: November 2009
Contact: CHENG Renquan <rqcheng@smu.edu.sg>
Description:
Writing a device ID to this file will remove an ID
that was dynamically added via the new_id sysfs entry.
The format for the device ID is:
idVendor idProduct. After successfully
removing an ID, the driver will no longer support the
device. This is useful to ensure auto probing won't
match the driver to the device. For example:
# echo "046d c315" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/remove_id

Contact: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@csr.com>
Description:
The maximum PHY rate to use for all connected devices.
This is only of limited use for testing and
development as the hardware's automatic rate
adaptation is better then this simple control.
Refer to [ECMA-368] section 10.3.1.1 for the value to
use.

Description: Discover and change clock speed of CPUs
Clock scaling allows you to change the clock speed of the
CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save battery
power, because the lower the clock speed, the less power
the CPU consumes.
There are many knobs to tweak in this directory.
See files in Documentation/cpu-freq/ for more information.
In particular, read Documentation/cpu-freq/user-guide.txt
to learn how to control the knobs.

What: /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page
Date: Sep 2009
KernelVersion: 2.6.33
Contact: andi@firstfloor.org
Description:
Soft-offline the memory page containing the physical address
written into this file. Input is a hex number specifying the
physical address of the page. The kernel will then attempt
to soft-offline it, by moving the contents elsewhere or
dropping it if possible. The kernel will then be placed
on the bad page list and never be reused.
The offlining is done in kernel specific granuality.
Normally it's the base page size of the kernel, but
this might change.
The page must be still accessible, not poisoned. The
kernel will never kill anything for this, but rather
fail the offline. Return value is the size of the
number, or a error when the offlining failed. Reading
the file is not allowed.

specifying the physical address of the page. The
kernel will then attempt to hard-offline the page, by
trying to drop the page or killing any owner or
triggering IO errors if needed. Note this may kill
any processes owning the page. The kernel will avoid
to access this page assuming it's poisoned by the

Normally it's the base page size of the kernel, but
this might change.
Return value is the size of the number, or a error when

This guide describes the use of the procfs file system from
within the Linux kernel. The idea to write this guide came up on
the #kernelnewbies IRC channel (see <ulink
url="http://www.kernelnewbies.org/">http://www.kernelnewbies.org/</ulink>),
when Jeff Garzik explained the use of procfs and forwarded me a
message Alexander Viro wrote to the linux-kernel mailing list. I
agreed to write it up nicely, so here it is.
</para>
<para>
I'd like to thank Jeff Garzik

<chapter id="intro">
<title>Introduction</title>
<para>
The <filename class="directory">/proc</filename> file system
(procfs) is a special file system in the linux kernel. It's a
virtual file system: it is not associated with a block device
but exists only in memory. The files in the procfs are there to
allow userland programs access to certain information from the
kernel (like process information in <filename
class="directory">/proc/[0-9]+/</filename>), but also for debug
purposes (like <filename>/proc/ksyms</filename>).
</para>
<para>
This guide describes the use of the procfs file system from
within the Linux kernel. It starts by introducing all relevant
functions to manage the files within the file system. After that
it shows how to communicate with userland, and some tips and
tricks will be pointed out. Finally a complete example will be
shown.
</para>
<para>
Note that the files in <filename
class="directory">/proc/sys</filename> are sysctl files: they
don't belong to procfs and are governed by a completely
different API described in the Kernel API book.
</para>
</chapter>
<chapter id="managing">
<title>Managing procfs entries</title>
<para>
This chapter describes the functions that various kernel
components use to populate the procfs with files, symlinks,
device nodes, and directories.
</para>
<para>
A minor note before we start: if you want to use any of the
procfs functions, be sure to include the correct header file!
This should be one of the first lines in your code:
</para>
<programlisting>
#include &lt;linux/proc_fs.h&gt;
</programlisting>
<sect1 id="regularfile">
<title>Creating a regular file</title>

<paramdef>mode_t <parameter>mode</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>struct proc_dir_entry* <parameter>parent</parameter></paramdef>
</funcprototype>
</funcsynopsis>
<para>
This function creates a regular file with the name
<parameter>name</parameter>, file mode
<parameter>mode</parameter> in the directory
<parameter>parent</parameter>. To create a file in the root of
the procfs, use <constant>NULL</constant> as
<parameter>parent</parameter> parameter. When successful, the
function will return a pointer to the freshly created
<structname>struct proc_dir_entry</structname>; otherwise it
will return <constant>NULL</constant>. <xref
linkend="userland"/> describes how to do something useful with
regular files.
</para>
<para>
Note that it is specifically supported that you can pass a
path that spans multiple directories. For example
<function>create_proc_entry</function>(<parameter>"drivers/via0/info"</parameter>)
will create the <filename class="directory">via0</filename>
directory if necessary, with standard
<constant>0755</constant> permissions.
</para>
<para>
If you only want to be able to read the file, the function
<function>create_proc_read_entry</function> described in <xref
linkend="convenience"/> may be used to create and initialise
the procfs entry in one single call.
</para>

removed by their <emphasis>name</emphasis>, not by the
<structname>struct proc_dir_entry</structname> returned by the
various create functions. Note that this function doesn't
recursively remove entries.
</para>
<para>
Be sure to free the <structfield>data</structfield> entry from
the <structname>struct proc_dir_entry</structname> before
<function>remove_proc_entry</function> is called (that is: if
there was some <structfield>data</structfield> allocated, of
course). See <xref linkend="usingdata"/> for more information
on using the <structfield>data</structfield> entry.
</para>
</sect1>
</chapter>
<chapter id="userland">
<title>Communicating with userland</title>
<para>
Instead of reading (or writing) information directly from
kernel memory, procfs works with <emphasis>call back
functions</emphasis> for files: functions that are called when
a specific file is being read or written. Such functions have
to be initialised after the procfs file is created by setting
the <structfield>read_proc</structfield> and/or
<structfield>write_proc</structfield> fields in the
<structname>struct proc_dir_entry*</structname> that the
function <function>create_proc_entry</function> returned:
</para>
<programlisting>
struct proc_dir_entry* entry;
entry->read_proc = read_proc_foo;
entry->write_proc = write_proc_foo;
</programlisting>
<para>
If you only want to use a the
<structfield>read_proc</structfield>, the function
<function>create_proc_read_entry</function> described in <xref
linkend="convenience"/> may be used to create and initialise the
procfs entry in one single call.
</para>
<sect1 id="Reading_data">
<title>Reading data</title>
<para>
The read function is a call back function that allows userland
processes to read data from the kernel. The read function
should have the following format:
</para>
<funcsynopsis>
<funcprototype>
<funcdef>int <function>read_func</function></funcdef>
<paramdef>char* <parameter>buffer</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>char** <parameter>start</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>off_t <parameter>off</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>int <parameter>count</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>int* <parameter>peof</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>void* <parameter>data</parameter></paramdef>
</funcprototype>
</funcsynopsis>
<para>
The read function should write its information into the
<parameter>buffer</parameter>, which will be exactly
<literal>PAGE_SIZE</literal> bytes long.
</para>
<para>
The parameter
<parameter>peof</parameter> should be used to signal that the
end of the file has been reached by writing
<literal>1</literal> to the memory location
<parameter>peof</parameter> points to.
</para>
<para>
The <parameter>data</parameter>
parameter can be used to create a single call back function for
several files, see <xref linkend="usingdata"/>.
</para>
<para>
The rest of the parameters and the return value are described
by a comment in <filename>fs/proc/generic.c</filename> as follows:
</para>
<blockquote>
<para>
You have three ways to return data:
</para>
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
Leave <literal>*start = NULL</literal>. (This is the default.)
Put the data of the requested offset at that
offset within the buffer. Return the number (<literal>n</literal>)
of bytes there are from the beginning of the
buffer up to the last byte of data. If the
number of supplied bytes (<literal>= n - offset</literal>) is
greater than zero and you didn't signal eof
and the reader is prepared to take more data
you will be called again with the requested
offset advanced by the number of bytes
absorbed. This interface is useful for files
no larger than the buffer.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Set <literal>*start</literal> to an unsigned long value less than
the buffer address but greater than zero.
Put the data of the requested offset at the
beginning of the buffer. Return the number of
bytes of data placed there. If this number is
greater than zero and you didn't signal eof
and the reader is prepared to take more data
you will be called again with the requested
offset advanced by <literal>*start</literal>. This interface is
useful when you have a large file consisting
of a series of blocks which you want to count
and return as wholes.
(Hack by Paul.Russell@rustcorp.com.au)
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Set <literal>*start</literal> to an address within the buffer.
Put the data of the requested offset at <literal>*start</literal>.
Return the number of bytes of data placed there.
If this number is greater than zero and you
didn't signal eof and the reader is prepared to
take more data you will be called again with the
requested offset advanced by the number of bytes
absorbed.
</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</blockquote>
<para>
<xref linkend="example"/> shows how to use a read call back
function.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="Writing_data">
<title>Writing data</title>
<para>
The write call back function allows a userland process to write
data to the kernel, so it has some kind of control over the
kernel. The write function should have the following format:
</para>
<funcsynopsis>
<funcprototype>
<funcdef>int <function>write_func</function></funcdef>
<paramdef>struct file* <parameter>file</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>const char* <parameter>buffer</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>unsigned long <parameter>count</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>void* <parameter>data</parameter></paramdef>
</funcprototype>
</funcsynopsis>
<para>
The write function should read <parameter>count</parameter>
bytes at maximum from the <parameter>buffer</parameter>. Note
that the <parameter>buffer</parameter> doesn't live in the
kernel's memory space, so it should first be copied to kernel
space with <function>copy_from_user</function>. The
<parameter>file</parameter> parameter is usually
ignored. <xref linkend="usingdata"/> shows how to use the
<parameter>data</parameter> parameter.
</para>
<para>
Again, <xref linkend="example"/> shows how to use this call back
function.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="usingdata">
<title>A single call back for many files</title>
<para>
When a large number of almost identical files is used, it's
quite inconvenient to use a separate call back function for
each file. A better approach is to have a single call back
function that distinguishes between the files by using the
<structfield>data</structfield> field in <structname>struct
proc_dir_entry</structname>. First of all, the
<structfield>data</structfield> field has to be initialised:
</para>
<programlisting>
struct proc_dir_entry* entry;
struct my_file_data *file_data;
file_data = kmalloc(sizeof(struct my_file_data), GFP_KERNEL);
entry->data = file_data;
</programlisting>
<para>
The <structfield>data</structfield> field is a <type>void
*</type>, so it can be initialised with anything.
</para>
<para>
Now that the <structfield>data</structfield> field is set, the
<function>read_proc</function> and
<function>write_proc</function> can use it to distinguish
between files because they get it passed into their
<parameter>data</parameter> parameter:
</para>
<programlisting>
int foo_read_func(char *page, char **start, off_t off,
int count, int *eof, void *data)
{
int len;
if(data == file_data) {
/* special case for this file */
} else {
/* normal processing */
}
return len;
}
</programlisting>
<para>
Be sure to free the <structfield>data</structfield> data field
when removing the procfs entry.
</para>
</sect1>
</chapter>
<chapter id="tips">
<title>Tips and tricks</title>
<sect1 id="convenience">
<title>Convenience functions</title>
<funcsynopsis>
<funcprototype>
<funcdef>struct proc_dir_entry* <function>create_proc_read_entry</function></funcdef>

<paramdef>mode_t <parameter>mode</parameter></paramdef>

<paramdef>read_proc_t* <parameter>read_proc</parameter></paramdef>
<paramdef>void* <parameter>data</parameter></paramdef>
</funcprototype>
</funcsynopsis>
<para>
This function creates a regular file in exactly the same way
as <function>create_proc_entry</function> from <xref
linkend="regularfile"/> does, but also allows to set the read
function <parameter>read_proc</parameter> in one call. This
function can set the <parameter>data</parameter> as well, like
explained in <xref linkend="usingdata"/>.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="Modules">
<title>Modules</title>
<para>
If procfs is being used from within a module, be sure to set
the <structfield>owner</structfield> field in the
<structname>struct proc_dir_entry</structname> to
<constant>THIS_MODULE</constant>.
</para>
<programlisting>
struct proc_dir_entry* entry;
entry->owner = THIS_MODULE;
</programlisting>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="Mode_and_ownership">
<title>Mode and ownership</title>
<para>
Sometimes it is useful to change the mode and/or ownership of
a procfs entry. Here is an example that shows how to achieve
that:
</para>
<programlisting>
struct proc_dir_entry* entry;
entry->mode = S_IWUSR |S_IRUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH;
entry->uid = 0;
entry->gid = 100;
</programlisting>
</sect1>

<title>Digital Video (DV) Timings</title>
<para>
The video standards discussed so far has been dealing with Analog TV and the
corresponding video timings. Today there are many more different hardware interfaces
such as High Definition TV interfaces (HDMI), VGA, DVI connectors etc., that carry
video signals and there is a need to extend the API to select the video timings
for these interfaces. Since it is not possible to extend the &v4l2-std-id; due to
the limited bits available, a new set of IOCTLs is added to set/get video timings at
the input and output: </para><itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>DV Presets: Digital Video (DV) presets. These are IDs representing a
video timing at the input/output. Presets are pre-defined timings implemented
by the hardware according to video standards. A __u32 data type is used to represent
a preset unlike the bit mask that is used in &v4l2-std-id; allowing future extensions
to support as many different presets as needed.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Custom DV Timings: This will allow applications to define more detailed
custom video timings for the interface. This includes parameters such as width, height,
polarities, frontporch, backporch etc.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>To enumerate and query the attributes of DV presets supported by a device,
applications use the &VIDIOC-ENUM-DV-PRESETS; ioctl. To get the current DV preset,
applications use the &VIDIOC-G-DV-PRESET; ioctl and to set a preset they use the
&VIDIOC-S-DV-PRESET; ioctl.</para>
<para>To set custom DV timings for the device, applications use the
&VIDIOC-S-DV-TIMINGS; ioctl and to get current custom DV timings they use the
&VIDIOC-G-DV-TIMINGS; ioctl.</para>
<para>Applications can make use of the <xref linkend="input-capabilities" /> and
<xref linkend="output-capabilities"/> flags to decide what ioctls are available to set the
video timings for the device.</para>

Linux ACPI Custom Control Method How To
=======================================
Written by Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
Linux supports customizing ACPI control methods at runtime.
Users can use this to
1. override an existing method which may not work correctly,
or just for debugging purposes.
2. insert a completely new method in order to create a missing
method such as _OFF, _ON, _STA, _INI, etc.
For these cases, it is far simpler to dynamically install a single
control method rather than override the entire DSDT, because kernel
rebuild/reboot is not needed and test result can be got in minutes.
Note: Only ACPI METHOD can be overridden, any other object types like
"Device", "OperationRegion", are not recognized.
Note: The same ACPI control method can be overridden for many times,
and it's always the latest one that used by Linux/kernel.
1. override an existing method
a) get the ACPI table via ACPI sysfs I/F. e.g. to get the DSDT,
just run "cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > /tmp/dsdt.dat"
b) disassemble the table by running "iasl -d dsdt.dat".
c) rewrite the ASL code of the method and save it in a new file,
d) package the new file (psr.asl) to an ACPI table format.
Here is an example of a customized \_SB._AC._PSR method,
DefinitionBlock ("", "SSDT", 1, "", "", 0x20080715)
{
External (ACON)
Method (\_SB_.AC._PSR, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Store ("In AC _PSR", Debug)
Return (ACON)
}
}
Note that the full pathname of the method in ACPI namespace
should be used.
And remember to use "External" to declare external objects.
e) assemble the file to generate the AML code of the method.
e.g. "iasl psr.asl" (psr.aml is generated as a result)
f) mount debugfs by "mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug"
g) override the old method via the debugfs by running
"cat /tmp/psr.aml > /sys/kernel/debug/acpi/custom_method"
2. insert a new method
This is easier than overriding an existing method.
We just need to create the ASL code of the method we want to
insert and then follow the step c) ~ g) in section 1.
3. undo your changes
The "undo" operation is not supported for a new inserted method
right now, i.e. we can not remove a method currently.
For an overrided method, in order to undo your changes, please
save a copy of the method original ASL code in step c) section 1,
and redo step c) ~ g) to override the method with the original one.
Note: We can use a kernel with multiple custom ACPI method running,
But each individual write to debugfs can implement a SINGLE
method override. i.e. if we want to insert/override multiple
ACPI methods, we need to redo step c) ~ g) for multiple times.

OMAP2/3 Display Subsystem
-------------------------
This is an almost total rewrite of the OMAP FB driver in drivers/video/omap
(let's call it DSS1). The main differences between DSS1 and DSS2 are DSI,
TV-out and multiple display support, but there are lots of small improvements
also.
The DSS2 driver (omapdss module) is in arch/arm/plat-omap/dss/, and the FB,
panel and controller drivers are in drivers/video/omap2/. DSS1 and DSS2 live
currently side by side, you can choose which one to use.
Features
--------
Working and tested features include:
- MIPI DPI (parallel) output
- MIPI DSI output in command mode
- MIPI DBI (RFBI) output
- SDI output
- TV output
- All pieces can be compiled as a module or inside kernel
- Use DISPC to update any of the outputs
- Use CPU to update RFBI or DSI output
- OMAP DISPC planes
- RGB16, RGB24 packed, RGB24 unpacked
- YUV2, UYVY
- Scaling
- Adjusting DSS FCK to find a good pixel clock
- Use DSI DPLL to create DSS FCK
Tested boards include:
- OMAP3 SDP board
- Beagle board
- N810
omapdss driver
--------------
The DSS driver does not itself have any support for Linux framebuffer, V4L or
such like the current ones, but it has an internal kernel API that upper level
drivers can use.
The DSS driver models OMAP's overlays, overlay managers and displays in a
flexible way to enable non-common multi-display configuration. In addition to
modelling the hardware overlays, omapdss supports virtual overlays and overlay
managers. These can be used when updating a display with CPU or system DMA.
Panel and controller drivers
----------------------------
The drivers implement panel or controller specific functionality and are not
usually visible to users except through omapfb driver. They register
themselves to the DSS driver.
omapfb driver
-------------
The omapfb driver implements arbitrary number of standard linux framebuffers.
These framebuffers can be routed flexibly to any overlays, thus allowing very
dynamic display architecture.
The driver exports some omapfb specific ioctls, which are compatible with the
ioctls in the old driver.
The rest of the non standard features are exported via sysfs. Whether the final
implementation will use sysfs, or ioctls, is still open.
V4L2 drivers
------------
V4L2 is being implemented in TI.
From omapdss point of view the V4L2 drivers should be similar to framebuffer
driver.
Architecture
--------------------
Some clarification what the different components do:
- Framebuffer is a memory area inside OMAP's SRAM/SDRAM that contains the
pixel data for the image. Framebuffer has width and height and color
depth.
- Overlay defines where the pixels are read from and where they go on the
screen. The overlay may be smaller than framebuffer, thus displaying only
part of the framebuffer. The position of the overlay may be changed if
the overlay is smaller than the display.
- Overlay manager combines the overlays in to one image and feeds them to
display.
- Display is the actual physical display device.
A framebuffer can be connected to multiple overlays to show the same pixel data
on all of the overlays. Note that in this case the overlay input sizes must be
the same, but, in case of video overlays, the output size can be different. Any
framebuffer can be connected to any overlay.
An overlay can be connected to one overlay manager. Also DISPC overlays can be
connected only to DISPC overlay managers, and virtual overlays can be only
connected to virtual overlays.
An overlay manager can be connected to one display. There are certain
restrictions which kinds of displays an overlay manager can be connected:
- DISPC TV overlay manager can be only connected to TV display.
- Virtual overlay managers can only be connected to DBI or DSI displays.
- DISPC LCD overlay manager can be connected to all displays, except TV
display.
Sysfs
-----
The sysfs interface is mainly used for testing. I don't think sysfs
interface is the best for this in the final version, but I don't quite know
what would be the best interfaces for these things.
The sysfs interface is divided to two parts: DSS and FB.

Examples
--------
The following definitions have been made for the examples below:
ovl0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay0
ovl1=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay1
ovl2=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/overlay2
mgr0=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager0
mgr1=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/manager1
lcd=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display0
dvi=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display1
tv=/sys/devices/platform/omapdss/display2
fb0=/sys/class/graphics/fb0
fb1=/sys/class/graphics/fb1
fb2=/sys/class/graphics/fb2
Default setup on OMAP3 SDP
--------------------------
Here's the default setup on OMAP3 SDP board. All planes go to LCD. DVI
and TV-out are not in use. The columns from left to right are:
framebuffers, overlays, overlay managers, displays. Framebuffers are
handled by omapfb, and the rest by the DSS.
FB0 --- GFX -\ DVI
FB1 --- VID1 --+- LCD ---- LCD
FB2 --- VID2 -/ TV ----- TV
Example: Switch from LCD to DVI
----------------------
w=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
h=`cat $dvi/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
echo "0" > $lcd/enabled
echo "" > $mgr0/display
fbset -fb /dev/fb0 -xres $w -yres $h -vxres $w -vyres $h
# at this point you have to switch the dvi/lcd dip-switch from the omap board
echo "dvi" > $mgr0/display
echo "1" > $dvi/enabled
After this the configuration looks like:
FB0 --- GFX -\ -- DVI
FB1 --- VID1 --+- LCD -/ LCD
FB2 --- VID2 -/ TV ----- TV
Example: Clone GFX overlay to LCD and TV
-------------------------------
w=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 2 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
h=`cat $tv/timings | cut -d "," -f 3 | cut -d "/" -f 1`
echo "0" > $ovl0/enabled
echo "0" > $ovl1/enabled
echo "" > $fb1/overlays
echo "0,1" > $fb0/overlays
echo "$w,$h" > $ovl1/output_size
echo "tv" > $ovl1/manager
echo "1" > $ovl0/enabled
echo "1" > $ovl1/enabled
echo "1" > $tv/enabled
After this the configuration looks like (only relevant parts shown):
FB0 +-- GFX ---- LCD ---- LCD
\- VID1 ---- TV ---- TV
Misc notes
----------
OMAP FB allocates the framebuffer memory using the OMAP VRAM allocator.
Using DSI DPLL to generate pixel clock it is possible produce the pixel clock
of 86.5MHz (max possible), and with that you get 1280x1024@57 output from DVI.
Rotation and mirroring currently only supports RGB565 and RGB8888 modes. VRFB
does not support mirroring.
VRFB rotation requires much more memory than non-rotated framebuffer, so you
probably need to increase your vram setting before using VRFB rotation. Also,
many applications may not work with VRFB if they do not pay attention to all
framebuffer parameters.
Kernel boot arguments
---------------------
vram=<size>
- Amount of total VRAM to preallocate. For example, "10M". omapfb
allocates memory for framebuffers from VRAM.
omapfb.mode=<display>:<mode>[,...]
- Default video mode for specified displays. For example,
"dvi:800x400MR-24@60". See drivers/video/modedb.c.
There are also two special modes: "pal" and "ntsc" that
can be used to tv out.
omapfb.vram=<fbnum>:<size>[@<physaddr>][,...]
- VRAM allocated for a framebuffer. Normally omapfb allocates vram
depending on the display size. With this you can manually allocate
more or define the physical address of each framebuffer. For example,
"1:4M" to allocate 4M for fb1.
omapfb.debug=<y|n>
- Enable debug printing. You have to have OMAPFB debug support enabled
in kernel config.
omapfb.test=<y|n>
- Draw test pattern to framebuffer whenever framebuffer settings change.
You need to have OMAPFB debug support enabled in kernel config.
omapfb.vrfb=<y|n>
- Use VRFB rotation for all framebuffers.
omapfb.rotate=<angle>
- Default rotation applied to all framebuffers.
0 - 0 degree rotation
1 - 90 degree rotation
2 - 180 degree rotation
3 - 270 degree rotation
omapfb.mirror=<y|n>
- Default mirror for all framebuffers. Only works with DMA rotation.
omapdss.def_disp=<display>
- Name of default display, to which all overlays will be connected.
Common examples are "lcd" or "tv".
omapdss.debug=<y|n>
- Enable debug printing. You have to have DSS debug support enabled in
kernel config.
TODO
----
DSS locking
Error checking
- Lots of checks are missing or implemented just as BUG()
System DMA update for DSI
- Can be used for RGB16 and RGB24P modes. Probably not for RGB24U (how
to skip the empty byte?)
OMAP1 support
- Not sure if needed

How to lock your code in cache in uClinux/blackfin
--------------------------------------------------
There are only a few steps required to lock your code into the cache.
Currently you can lock the code by Way.
Below are the interface provided for locking the cache.
1. cache_grab_lock(int Ways);
This function grab the lock for locking your code into the cache specified
by Ways.
2. cache_lock(int Ways);
This function should be called after your critical code has been executed.
Once the critical code exits, the code is now loaded into the cache. This
function locks the code into the cache.
So, the example sequence will be:
cache_grab_lock(WAY0_L); /* Grab the lock */
critical_code(); /* Execute the code of interest */
cache_lock(WAY0_L); /* Lock the cache */
Where WAY0_L signifies WAY0 locking.

How snapshot-merge is used by LVM2

A merging snapshot assumes the role of the "snapshot-origin" while
merging. As such the "snapshot-origin" is replaced with
"snapshot-merge". The "-real" device is not changed and the "-cow"
device is renamed to <origin name>-cow to aid LVM2's cleanup of the
merging snapshot after it completes. The "snapshot" that hands over its
COW device to the "snapshot-merge" is deactivated (unless using lvchange
--refresh); but if it is left active it will simply return I/O errors.
A snapshot will merge into its origin with the following command:

Description
-----------
This driver permits reading of the internal temperature sensor of AMD
Family 10h and 11h processors.
All these processors have a sensor, but on older revisions of Family 10h
processors, the sensor may return inconsistent values (erratum 319). The
driver will refuse to load on these revisions unless you specify the
"force=1" module parameter.
There is one temperature measurement value, available as temp1_input in
sysfs. It is measured in degrees Celsius with a resolution of 1/8th degree.
Please note that it is defined as a relative value; to quote the AMD manual:
Tctl is the processor temperature control value, used by the platform to
control cooling systems. Tctl is a non-physical temperature on an
arbitrary scale measured in degrees. It does _not_ represent an actual
physical temperature like die or case temperature. Instead, it specifies
the processor temperature relative to the point at which the system must
supply the maximum cooling for the processor's specified maximum case
temperature and maximum thermal power dissipation.
The maximum value for Tctl is available in the file temp1_max.
If the BIOS has enabled hardware temperature control, the threshold at
which the processor will throttle itself to avoid damage is available in
temp1_crit and temp1_crit_hyst.

By default output values are scaled between -32768 .. 32767. In joystick raw
mode, joystick and sysfs position entry have the same scale. There can be
small difference due to input system fuzziness feature.
Events are also available as input event device.
Selftest is meant only for hardware diagnostic purposes. It is not meant to be
used during normal operations. Position data is not corrupted during selftest
but interrupt behaviour is not guaranteed to work reliably. In test mode, the
sensing element is internally moved little bit. Selftest measures difference
between normal mode and test mode. Chip specifications tell the acceptance
limit for each type of the chip. Limits are provided via platform data
to allow adjustment of the limits without a change to the actual driver.
Seltest returns either "OK x y z" or "FAIL x y z" where x, y and z are
measured difference between modes. Axes are not remapped in selftest mode.
Measurement values are provided to help HW diagnostic applications to make
final decision.
On HP laptops, if the led infrastructure is activated, support for a led
indicating disk protection will be provided as /sys/class/leds/hp::hddprotect.
Another feature of the driver is misc device called "freefall" that
acts similar to /dev/rtc and reacts on free-fall interrupts received

The module ser_gigaset provides a serial line discipline N_GIGASET_M101
which drives the device through the regular serial line driver. It must
be attached to the serial line to which the M101 is connected with the
ldattach(8) command (requires util-linux-ng release 2.14 or later), for
example:
ldattach GIGASET_M101 /dev/ttyS1

The ldattach(8) command (included in util-linux-ng release 2.14 or later)
can be used for that purpose, for example:
ldattach GIGASET_M101 /dev/ttyS1

then sleep in the background, keeping the device open so that the line
discipline remains active. To deactivate it, kill the daemon, for example
with
killall ldattach

before disconnecting the device. To have this happen automatically at
system startup/shutdown on an LSB compatible system, create and activate
an appropriate LSB startup script /etc/init.d/gigaset. (The init name

Brightness hotkey notes:
These are the current sane choices for brightness key mapping in

Don't mess with the brightness hotkeys in a Thinkpad. If you want
notifications for OSD, use the sysfs backlight class event support.
For IBM and Lenovo models *without* ACPI backlight control (the ones on
which thinkpad-acpi will autoload its backlight interface by default,
and on which ACPI video does not export a backlight interface):
1. Don't enable or map the brightness hotkeys in thinkpad-acpi, as
these older firmware versions unfortunately won't respect the hotkey
mask for brightness keys anyway, and always reacts to them. This
usually work fine, unless X.org drivers are doing something to block
the BIOS. In that case, use (3) below. This is the default mode of
operation.
2. Enable the hotkeys, but map them to something else that is NOT
KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP/DOWN or any other keycode that would cause
userspace to try to change the backlight level, and use that as an
on-screen-display hint.
3. IF AND ONLY IF X.org drivers find a way to block the firmware from
automatically changing the brightness, enable the hotkeys and map
them to KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP and KEY_BRIGHTNESS_DOWN, and feed that to
something that calls xbacklight. thinkpad-acpi will not be able to
change brightness in that case either, so you should disable its
backlight interface.
For Lenovo models *with* ACPI backlight control:
1. Load up ACPI video and use that. ACPI video will report ACPI
events for brightness change keys. Do not mess with thinkpad-acpi
defaults in this case. thinkpad-acpi should not have anything to do
with backlight events in a scenario where ACPI video is loaded:
brightness hotkeys must be disabled, and the backlight interface is
to be kept disabled as well. This is the default mode of operation.
2. Do *NOT* load up ACPI video, enable the hotkeys in thinkpad-acpi,
and map them to KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP and KEY_BRIGHTNESS_DOWN. Process
these keys on userspace somehow (e.g. by calling xbacklight).
The driver will do this automatically if it detects that ACPI video
has been disabled.
The driver will issue KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP and KEY_BRIGHTNESS_DOWN events
automatically for the cases were userspace has to do something to
implement brightness changes. When you override these events, you will

Volume control
--------------
This feature allows volume control on ThinkPad models which don't have
a hardware volume knob. The available commands are:
procfs: /proc/acpi/ibm/volume
ALSA: "ThinkPad Console Audio Control", default ID: "ThinkPadEC"
NOTE: by default, the volume control interface operates in read-only
mode, as it is supposed to be used for on-screen-display purposes.
The read/write mode can be enabled through the use of the
"volume_control=1" module parameter.
NOTE: distros are urged to not enable volume_control by default, this
should be done by the local admin only. The ThinkPad UI is for the
console audio control to be done through the volume keys only, and for
the desktop environment to just provide on-screen-display feedback.
Software volume control should be done only in the main AC97/HDA
mixer.
This feature allows volume control on ThinkPad models with a digital
volume knob (when available, not all models have it), as well as
mute/unmute control. The available commands are:
echo up >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
echo down >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
echo mute >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
echo unmute >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume
echo 'level <level>' >/proc/acpi/ibm/volume

up or down command (the level command will not unmute the volume), or
the unmute command.
The current volume level and mute state is shown in the file.
The ALSA mixer interface to this feature is still missing, but patches
to add it exist. That problem should be addressed in the not so
distant future.
You can use the volume_capabilities parameter to tell the driver
whether your thinkpad has volume control or mute-only control:
volume_capabilities=1 for mixers with mute and volume control,
volume_capabilities=2 for mixers with only mute control.
If the driver misdetects the capabilities for your ThinkPad model,
please report this to ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net, so that we
can update the driver.
There are two strategies for volume control. To select which one
should be used, use the volume_mode module parameter: volume_mode=1
selects EC mode, and volume_mode=3 selects EC mode with NVRAM backing
(so that volume/mute changes are remembered across shutdown/reboot).
The driver will operate in volume_mode=3 by default. If that does not
work well on your ThinkPad model, please report this to
ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net.
The driver supports the standard ALSA module parameters. If the ALSA
mixer is disabled, the driver will disable all volume functionality.

---------
Files

Each dpot device will have a set of eeprom, rdac, and tolerance files. How
many depends on the actual part you have, as will the range of allowed values.
The eeprom files are used to program the startup value of the device.
The rdac files are used to program the immediate value of the device.
The tolerance files are the read-only factory programmed tolerance settings
and may vary greatly on a part-by-part basis. For exact interpretation of
this field, please consult the datasheet for your part. This is presented
as a hex file for easier parsing.

(*) The memory allocated by a request for an anonymous mapping will normally
be cleared by the kernel before being returned in accordance with the
Linux man pages (ver 2.22 or later).
In the MMU case this can be achieved with reasonable performance as
regions are backed by virtual pages, with the contents only being mapped
to cleared physical pages when a write happens on that specific page
(prior to which, the pages are effectively mapped to the global zero page
from which reads can take place). This spreads out the time it takes to
initialize the contents of a page - depending on the write-usage of the
mapping.
In the no-MMU case, however, anonymous mappings are backed by physical
pages, and the entire map is cleared at allocation time. This can cause
significant delays during a userspace malloc() as the C library does an
anonymous mapping and the kernel then does a memset for the entire map.
However, for memory that isn't required to be precleared - such as that
returned by malloc() - mmap() can take a MAP_UNINITIALIZED flag to
indicate to the kernel that it shouldn't bother clearing the memory before
returning it. Note that CONFIG_MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED must be enabled
to permit this, otherwise the flag will be ignored.
uClibc uses this to speed up malloc(), and the ELF-FDPIC binfmt uses this
to allocate the brk and stack region.

6. Run-time PM and System Sleep
Run-time PM and system sleep (i.e., system suspend and hibernation, also known
as suspend-to-RAM and suspend-to-disk) interact with each other in a couple of
ways. If a device is active when a system sleep starts, everything is
straightforward. But what should happen if the device is already suspended?
The device may have different wake-up settings for run-time PM and system sleep.
For example, remote wake-up may be enabled for run-time suspend but disallowed
for system sleep (device_may_wakeup(dev) returns 'false'). When this happens,
the subsystem-level system suspend callback is responsible for changing the
device's wake-up setting (it may leave that to the device driver's system
suspend routine). It may be necessary to resume the device and suspend it again
in order to do so. The same is true if the driver uses different power levels
or other settings for run-time suspend and system sleep.
During system resume, devices generally should be brought back to full power,
even if they were suspended before the system sleep began. There are several
reasons for this, including:
* The device might need to switch power levels, wake-up settings, etc.
* Remote wake-up events might have been lost by the firmware.
* The device's children may need the device to be at full power in order
to resume themselves.
* The driver's idea of the device state may not agree with the device's
physical state. This can happen during resume from hibernation.
* The device might need to be reset.
* Even though the device was suspended, if its usage counter was > 0 then most
likely it would need a run-time resume in the near future anyway.
* Always going back to full power is simplest.
If the device was suspended before the sleep began, then its run-time PM status
will have to be updated to reflect the actual post-system sleep status. The way
to do this is:
pm_runtime_disable(dev);
pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
pm_runtime_enable(dev);
The PM core always increments the run-time usage counter before calling the
->prepare() callback and decrements it after calling the ->complete() callback.
Hence disabling run-time PM temporarily like this will not cause any run-time
suspend callbacks to be lost.

the watchdog. The timer will function as a GPT if the timer api is used, and
it will function as watchdog if the watchdog device is used. The watchdog

gpt api call to this timer will fail with -EBUSY.
If you add the property

GPT0 will be marked as in-use watchdog, i.e. blocking every gpt access to it.
If n>0, the watchdog is started with a timeout of n seconds. If n=0, the
configuration of the watchdog is not touched. This is useful in two cases:
- just mark GPT0 as watchdog, blocking gpt accesses, and configure it later;
- do not touch a configuration assigned by the boot loader which supervises
the boot process itself.
The watchdog will respect the CONFIG_WATCHDOG_NOWAYOUT option.

* OpenPIC and its interrupt numbers on Freescale's e500/e600 cores
The OpenPIC specification does not specify which interrupt source has to
become which interrupt number. This is up to the software implementation
of the interrupt controller. The only requirement is that every
interrupt source has to have an unique interrupt number / vector number.
To accomplish this the current implementation assigns the number zero to
the first source, the number one to the second source and so on until
all interrupt sources have their unique number.
Usually the assigned vector number equals the interrupt number mentioned
in the documentation for a given core / CPU. This is however not true
for the e500 cores (MPC85XX CPUs) where the documentation distinguishes
between internal and external interrupt sources and starts counting at
zero for both of them.
So what to write for external interrupt source X or internal interrupt
source Y into the device tree? Here is an example:
The memory map for the interrupt controller in the MPC8544[0] shows,
that the first interrupt source starts at 0x5_0000 (PIC Register Address
Map-Interrupt Source Configuration Registers). This source becomes the
number zero therefore:
External interrupt 0 = interrupt number 0
External interrupt 1 = interrupt number 1
External interrupt 2 = interrupt number 2
...
Every interrupt number allocates 0x20 bytes register space. So to get
its number it is sufficient to shift the lower 16bits to right by five.
So for the external interrupt 10 we have:
0x0140 >> 5 = 10
After the external sources, the internal sources follow. The in core I2C
controller on the MPC8544 for instance has the internal source number
27. Oo obtain its interrupt number we take the lower 16bits of its memory
address (0x5_0560) and shift it right:
0x0560 >> 5 = 43
Therefore the I2C device node for the MPC8544 CPU has to have the
interrupt number 43 specified in the device tree.

HAYES ESP DRIVER VERSION 2.1
A big thanks to the people at Hayes, especially Alan Adamson. Their support
has enabled me to provide enhancements to the driver.
Please report your experiences with this driver to me (arobinso@nyx.net). I
am looking for both positive and negative feedback.
*** IMPORTANT CHANGES FOR 2.1 ***
Support for PIO mode. Five situations will cause PIO mode to be used:
1) A multiport card is detected. PIO mode will always be used. (8 port cards
do not support DMA).
2) The DMA channel is set to an invalid value (anything other than 1 or 3).
3) The DMA buffer/channel could not be allocated. The port will revert to PIO
mode until it is reopened.
4) Less than a specified number of bytes need to be transferred to/from the
FIFOs. PIO mode will be used for that transfer only.
5) A port needs to do a DMA transfer and another port is already using the
DMA channel. PIO mode will be used for that transfer only.
Since the Hayes ESP seems to conflict with other cards (notably sound cards)
when using DMA, DMA is turned off by default. To use DMA, it must be turned
on explicitly, either with the "dma=" option described below or with
setserial. A multiport card can be forced into DMA mode by using setserial;
however, most multiport cards don't support DMA.
The latest version of setserial allows the enhanced configuration of the ESP
card to be viewed and modified.
***
This package contains the files needed to compile a module to support the Hayes
ESP card. The drivers are basically a modified version of the serial drivers.
Features:
- Uses the enhanced mode of the ESP card, allowing a wider range of
interrupts and features than compatibility mode
- Uses DMA and 16 bit PIO mode to transfer data to and from the ESP's FIFOs,
reducing CPU load
- Supports primary and secondary ports
If the driver is compiled as a module, the IRQs to use can be specified by
using the irq= option. The format is:
irq=[0x100],[0x140],[0x180],[0x200],[0x240],[0x280],[0x300],[0x380]
The address in brackets is the base address of the card. The IRQ of
nonexistent cards can be set to 0. If an IRQ of a card that does exist is set
to 0, the driver will attempt to guess at the correct IRQ. For example, to set
the IRQ of the card at address 0x300 to 12, the insmod command would be:
insmod esp irq=0,0,0,0,0,0,12,0
The custom divisor can be set by using the divisor= option. The format is the
same as for the irq= option. Each divisor value is a series of hex digits,
with each digit representing the divisor to use for a corresponding port. The
divisor value is constructed RIGHT TO LEFT. Specifying a nonzero divisor value
will automatically set the spd_cust flag. To calculate the divisor to use for
a certain baud rate, divide the port's base baud (generally 921600) by the
desired rate. For example, to set the divisor of the primary port at 0x300 to
4 and the divisor of the secondary port at 0x308 to 8, the insmod command would
be:
insmod esp divisor=0,0,0,0,0,0,0x84,0
The dma= option can be used to set the DMA channel. The channel can be either
1 or 3. Specifying any other value will force the driver to use PIO mode.
For example, to set the DMA channel to 3, the insmod command would be:
insmod esp dma=3
The rx_trigger= and tx_trigger= options can be used to set the FIFO trigger
levels. They specify when the ESP card should send an interrupt. Larger
values will decrease the number of interrupts; however, a value too high may
result in data loss. Valid values are 1 through 1023, with 768 being the
default. For example, to set the receive trigger level to 512 bytes and the
transmit trigger level to 700 bytes, the insmod command would be:
insmod esp rx_trigger=512 tx_trigger=700
The flow_off= and flow_on= options can be used to set the hardware flow off/
flow on levels. The flow on level must be lower than the flow off level, and
the flow off level should be higher than rx_trigger. Valid values are 1
through 1023, with 1016 being the default flow off level and 944 being the
default flow on level. For example, to set the flow off level to 1000 bytes
and the flow on level to 935 bytes, the insmod command would be:
insmod esp flow_off=1000 flow_on=935
The rx_timeout= option can be used to set the receive timeout value. This
value indicates how long after receiving the last character that the ESP card
should wait before signalling an interrupt. Valid values are 0 though 255,
with 128 being the default. A value too high will increase latency, and a
value too low will cause unnecessary interrupts. For example, to set the
receive timeout to 255, the insmod command would be:
insmod esp rx_timeout=255
The pio_threshold= option sets the threshold (in number of characters) for
using PIO mode instead of DMA mode. For example, if this value is 32,
transfers of 32 bytes or less will always use PIO mode.
insmod esp pio_threshold=32
Multiple options can be listed on the insmod command line by separating each
option with a space. For example:
insmod esp dma=3 trigger=512
The esp module can be automatically loaded when needed. To cause this to
happen, add the following lines to /etc/modprobe.conf (replacing the last line
with options for your configuration):
alias char-major-57 esp
alias char-major-58 esp
options esp irq=0,0,0,0,0,0,3,0 divisor=0,0,0,0,0,0,0x4,0
You may also need to run 'depmod -a'.
Devices must be created manually. To create the devices, note the output from
the module after it is inserted. The output will appear in the location where
kernel messages usually appear (usually /var/adm/messages). Create two devices
for each 'tty' mentioned, one with major of 57 and the other with major of 58.
The minor number should be the same as the tty number reported. The commands
would be (replace ? with the tty number):
mknod /dev/ttyP? c 57 ?
mknod /dev/cup? c 58 ?
For example, if the following line appears:
Oct 24 18:17:23 techno kernel: ttyP8 at 0x0140 (irq = 3) is an ESP primary port
...two devices should be created:
mknod /dev/ttyP8 c 57 8
mknod /dev/cup8 c 58 8
You may need to set the permissions on the devices:
chmod 666 /dev/ttyP*
chmod 666 /dev/cup*
The ESP module and the serial module should not conflict (they can be used at
the same time). After the ESP module has been loaded the ports on the ESP card
will no longer be accessible by the serial driver.
If I/O errors are experienced when accessing the port, check for IRQ and DMA
conflicts ('cat /proc/interrupts' and 'cat /proc/dma' for a list of IRQs and
DMAs currently in use).
Enjoy!

Lesson 1: Spin locks
Please use DEFINE_SPINLOCK()/DEFINE_RWLOCK() or
__SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED()/__RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED() as appropriate for static
initialization.
Most of the time, you can simply turn:
static spinlock_t xxx_lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED;

Static structure member variables go from:
struct foo bar {

to:
struct foo bar {
.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bar.lock);
};
Declaration of static rw_locks undergo a similar transformation.
Dynamic initialization, when necessary, may be performed as
demonstrated below.

static int __init xxx_init(void)
{

The following discussion is still valid, however, with the dynamic
initialization of spinlocks or with DEFINE_SPINLOCK, etc., used
instead of SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED.

For dynamic initialization, use spin_lock_init() or rwlock_init() as
appropriate:
spinlock_t xxx_lock;
rwlock_t xxx_rw_lock;
static int __init xxx_init(void)
{
spin_lock_init(&xxx_lock);

For static initialization, use DEFINE_SPINLOCK() / DEFINE_RWLOCK() or
__SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED() / __RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED() as appropriate.
SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED and RW_LOCK_UNLOCKED are deprecated. These interfere
with lockdep state tracking.
Most of the time, you can simply turn:
static spinlock_t xxx_lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED;
into:
static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(xxx_lock);
Static structure member variables go from:
struct foo bar {
.lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED;
};
to:
struct foo bar {
.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bar.lock);
};
Declaration of static rw_locks undergo a similar transformation.

Once the kernel with Hugetlb page support is built and running, a user can

enough memory for huge page purposes.
Once a number of huge pages have been pre-allocated to the kernel huge page

Some platforms support multiple huge page sizes. To preallocate huge pages
Some platforms support multiple huge page sizes. To allocate huge pages
of a specific size, one must preceed the huge pages boot command parameters
with a huge page size selection parameter "hugepagesz=<size>". <size> must
be specified in bytes with optional scale suffix [kKmMgG]. The default huge
page size may be selected with the "default_hugepagesz=<size>" boot parameter.
/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages indicates the current number of configured [default

Use the following command to dynamically allocate/deallocate default sized

When multiple huge page sizes are supported, /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
indicates the current number of pre-allocated huge pages of the default size.
Thus, one can use the following command to dynamically allocate/deallocate
default sized persistent huge pages:
echo 20 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
This command will try to configure 20 default sized huge pages in the system.
This command will try to adjust the number of default sized huge pages in the
huge page pool to 20, allocating or freeing huge pages, as required.
On a NUMA platform, the kernel will attempt to distribute the huge page pool

is increased, are called "persistent huge pages".
over all the set of allowed nodes specified by the NUMA memory policy of the
task that modifies nr_hugepages. The default for the allowed nodes--when the
task has default memory policy--is all on-line nodes with memory. Allowed
nodes with insufficient available, contiguous memory for a huge page will be
silently skipped when allocating persistent huge pages. See the discussion
below of the interaction of task memory policy, cpusets and per node attributes
with the allocation and freeing of persistent huge pages.
The success or failure of huge page allocation depends on the amount of
physically contiguous memory that is preset in system at the time of the
physically contiguous memory that is present in system at the time of the
allocation attempt. If the kernel is unable to allocate huge pages from
some nodes in a NUMA system, it will attempt to make up the difference by
allocating extra pages on other nodes with sufficient available contiguous
memory, if any.

which function as described above for the default huge page-sized case.
Interaction of Task Memory Policy with Huge Page Allocation/Freeing
Whether huge pages are allocated and freed via the /proc interface or
the /sysfs interface using the nr_hugepages_mempolicy attribute, the NUMA
nodes from which huge pages are allocated or freed are controlled by the
NUMA memory policy of the task that modifies the nr_hugepages_mempolicy
sysctl or attribute. When the nr_hugepages attribute is used, mempolicy
is ignored.
The recommended method to allocate or free huge pages to/from the kernel
huge page pool, using the nr_hugepages example above, is:
numactl --interleave <node-list> echo 20 \
>/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages_mempolicy
or, more succinctly:
numactl -m <node-list> echo 20 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages_mempolicy
This will allocate or free abs(20 - nr_hugepages) to or from the nodes
specified in <node-list>, depending on whether number of persistent huge pages
is initially less than or greater than 20, respectively. No huge pages will be
allocated nor freed on any node not included in the specified <node-list>.
When adjusting the persistent hugepage count via nr_hugepages_mempolicy, any
memory policy mode--bind, preferred, local or interleave--may be used. The
resulting effect on persistent huge page allocation is as follows:
1) Regardless of mempolicy mode [see Documentation/vm/numa_memory_policy.txt],
persistent huge pages will be distributed across the node or nodes
specified in the mempolicy as if "interleave" had been specified.
However, if a node in the policy does not contain sufficient contiguous
memory for a huge page, the allocation will not "fallback" to the nearest
neighbor node with sufficient contiguous memory. To do this would cause
undesirable imbalance in the distribution of the huge page pool, or
possibly, allocation of persistent huge pages on nodes not allowed by
the task's memory policy.
2) One or more nodes may be specified with the bind or interleave policy.
If more than one node is specified with the preferred policy, only the
lowest numeric id will be used. Local policy will select the node where
the task is running at the time the nodes_allowed mask is constructed.
For local policy to be deterministic, the task must be bound to a cpu or
cpus in a single node. Otherwise, the task could be migrated to some
other node at any time after launch and the resulting node will be
indeterminate. Thus, local policy is not very useful for this purpose.
Any of the other mempolicy modes may be used to specify a single node.
3) The nodes allowed mask will be derived from any non-default task mempolicy,
whether this policy was set explicitly by the task itself or one of its
ancestors, such as numactl. This means that if the task is invoked from a
shell with non-default policy, that policy will be used. One can specify a
node list of "all" with numactl --interleave or --membind [-m] to achieve
interleaving over all nodes in the system or cpuset.
4) Any task mempolicy specifed--e.g., using numactl--will be constrained by
the resource limits of any cpuset in which the task runs. Thus, there will
be no way for a task with non-default policy running in a cpuset with a
subset of the system nodes to allocate huge pages outside the cpuset
without first moving to a cpuset that contains all of the desired nodes.
5) Boot-time huge page allocation attempts to distribute the requested number
of huge pages over all on-lines nodes with memory.
Per Node Hugepages Attributes
A subset of the contents of the root huge page control directory in sysfs,
described above, will be replicated under each the system device of each
NUMA node with memory in:
/sys/devices/system/node/node[0-9]*/hugepages/
Under this directory, the subdirectory for each supported huge page size
contains the following attribute files:
nr_hugepages
free_hugepages
surplus_hugepages
The free_' and surplus_' attribute files are read-only. They return the number
of free and surplus [overcommitted] huge pages, respectively, on the parent
node.
The nr_hugepages attribute returns the total number of huge pages on the
specified node. When this attribute is written, the number of persistent huge
pages on the parent node will be adjusted to the specified value, if sufficient
resources exist, regardless of the task's mempolicy or cpuset constraints.
Note that the number of overcommit and reserve pages remain global quantities,
as we don't know until fault time, when the faulting task's mempolicy is
applied, from which node the huge page allocation will be attempted.
