- This document provides AMD side band IOCTL description defined for APML and its usage. Multiple AMD custom protocols defined for side band system management uses this IOCTL. User space C-APIs are made available by esmi_oob_library [1], which is provided by the E-SMS project [2].

2025-05-21misc: amd-sbi: Add support for AMD_SBI IOCTLAkshay Gupta1-0/+1
The present sbrmi module only support reporting power via hwmon. However, AMD data center range of processors support various system management functionality using custom protocols defined in Advanced Platform Management Link (APML) specification. Register a miscdevice, which creates a device /dev/sbrmiX with an IOCTL interface for the user space to invoke the APML Mailbox protocol, which is already defined in sbrmi_mailbox_xfer(). The APML protocols depend on a set of RMI registers. Having an IOCTL as a single entry point will help in providing synchronization among these protocols as multiple transactions on RMI register set may create race condition. Support for other protocols will be added in subsequent patches. APML mailbox protocol returns additional error codes written by SMU firmware in the out-bound register 0x37. These errors include, invalid core, message not supported over platform and others. This additional error codes can be used to provide more details to user space. Open-sourced and widely used https://github.com/amd/esmi_oob_library will continue to provide user-space programmable API.

2024-07-10misc: mrvl-cn10k-dpi: add Octeon CN10K DPI administrative driverVamsi Attunuru2-0/+53
Adds a misc driver for Marvell CN10K DPI(DMA Engine) device's physical function which initializes DPI DMA hardware's global configuration and enables hardware mailbox channels between physical function (PF) and it's virtual functions (VF). VF device drivers (User space drivers) use this hw mailbox to communicate any required device configuration on it's respective VF device. Accordingly, this DPI PF driver provisions the VF device resources. At the hardware level, the DPI physical function (PF) acts as a management interface to setup the VF device resources, VF devices are only provisioned to handle or control the actual DMA Engine's data transfer capabilities.

Change in clocks is due to IP is itself configurable and only the first two clocks are in all combinations. The last 6 clocks can be present in some of them. It means order is not really fixed and any combination is possible. Interrupt may or may not be present. The documentation for sd-fec bindings is now YAML, so update the MAINTAINERS file.

2018-05-14misc: IBM Virtual Management Channel Driver (VMC)Bryant G. Ly1-0/+226
This driver is a logical device which provides an interface between the hypervisor and a management partition. This interface is like a message passing interface. This management partition is intended to provide an alternative to HMC-based system management. VMC enables the Management LPAR to provide basic logical partition functions: - Logical Partition Configuration - Boot, start, and stop actions for individual partitions - Display of partition status - Management of virtual Ethernet - Management of virtual Storage - Basic system management This driver is to be used for the POWER Virtual Management Channel Virtual Adapter on the PowerPC platform. It provides a character device which allows for both request/response and async message support through the /dev/ibmvmc node. Signed-off-by: Bryant G.

mei_deinit() Building mei-amt-version.o triggers a GCC warning: Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c: In function 'main': Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:103:5: warning: 'acmd.fd' is used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] if (cl->fd != -1) ^ Documentation/misc-devices/mei/mei-amt-version.c:443:21: note: 'acmd.fd' was declared here struct amt_host_if acmd; ^ GCC is correct. See, the call chain that GCC detects must be main() amt_host_if_init() mei_init() mei_deinit() But when we enter mei_deinit() struct amt_host_if acmd is still unitialized. That makes the test for (effectively) amt_host_if->mei_cl->fd bogus. But it turns out that call of mei_deinit() isn't needed at all. All of the members of mei_cl will be set later in mei_init() and none will be used before they are set. So we can simply drop this call of mei_deinit().

2013-04-08mei: bus: Add device enabling and disabling APISamuel Ortiz1-2/+5
It should be left to the drivers to enable and disable the device on the MEI bus when e.g getting probed. For drivers to be able to safely call the enable and disable hooks, the mei_cl_ops must be set before it's probed and thus this should happen before registering the device on the MEI bus. Hence the mei_cl_add_device() prototype change.
