The RaspberryPi RP1 is a PCI multi function device containing
peripherals ranging from Ethernet to USB controller, I2C, SPI
and others.
Implement a bare minimum driver to operate the RP1, leveraging
actual OF based driver implementations for the on-board peripherals
by loading a devicetree overlay during driver probe if the RP1
node is not already present in the DT.
The peripherals are accessed by mapping MMIO registers starting
from PCI BAR1 region.
With the overlay approach we can achieve more generic and agnostic
approach to managing this chipset, being that it is a PCI endpoint
and could possibly be reused in other hw implementations. The
presented approach is also used by Bootlin's Microchip LAN966x
patchset (see link) as well, for a similar chipset.
In this case, the inclusion tree for the DT overlay is as follow
(the arrow points to the includer):
rp1-pci.dtso <---- rp1-common.dtsi
On the other hand, to ensure compatibility with downstream, this
driver can also work with a DT already comprising the RP1 node, so
the dynamically loaded overlay will not be used if the DT is already
fully defined.
The reason why this driver is contained in drivers/misc has
been paved by Bootlin's LAN966X driver, which first used the
overlay approach to implement non discoverable peripherals behind a
PCI bus. For RP1, the same arguments apply: it's not used as an SoC
since the driver code is not running on-chip and is not like an MFD
since it does not really need all the MFD infrastructure (shared regs,
etc.). So, for this particular use, misc has been proposed and deemed
as a good choice. For further details about that please check the links.
This driver is heavily based on downstream code from RaspberryPi
Foundation, and the original author is Phil Elwell.

'echo' is a software echo canceller for telco use, however
it's not used in the kernel at all.
Remove it.
It was moved from staging in 2014 by
commit Fixes: 6e2055a9e5 ("staging: echo: move to drivers/misc/")
Some discussion on lkml:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/Z7tZhYET41DAoHVf@gallifrey/
with Arnd and Harald, led to the 'dahdi' package which is part of
Asterisk:
https://gitea.osmocom.org/retronetworking/dahdi-linux
which can build with the 'echo' module, but is normally configured
with out it.
Dahdi is large, old, only lightly maintained and with a big API, so
there's no hope now of ever merging it into the main kernel tree.
Debian do package Dahdi, and in their package they actually include
a copy of the 'echo' module rather than using the kernel from the
upstream kernel. So even in the few cases where it is packaged
and built, the kernel copy isn't used.

driver subsystems to start accepting (or at least getting) rust
drivers. This is the end result of a lot of work from a lot of
people, congrats to all of them for getting this far, you've proved
many of us wrong in the best way possible, working code :)

Add a PCI driver that handles the LAN966x PCI device using a device-tree
overlay. This overlay is applied to the PCI device DT node and allows to
describe components that are present in the device.
The memory from the device-tree is remapped to the BAR memory thanks to
"ranges" properties computed at runtime by the PCI core during the PCI
enumeration.
The PCI device itself acts as an interrupt controller and is used as the
parent of the internal LAN966x interrupt controller to route the
interrupts to the assigned PCI INTx interrupt.

A number of storage technologies support a specialised hardware
partition designed to be resistant to replay attacks. The underlying
HW protocols differ but the operations are common. The RPMB partition
cannot be accessed via standard block layer, but by a set of specific
RPMB commands. Such a partition provides authenticated and replay
protected access, hence suitable as a secure storage.
The initial aim of this patch is to provide a simple RPMB driver
interface which can be accessed by the optee driver to facilitate early
RPMB access to OP-TEE OS (secure OS) during the boot time.
A TEE device driver can claim the RPMB interface, for example, via
rpmb_interface_register() or rpmb_dev_find_device(). The RPMB driver
provides a callback to route RPMB frames to the RPMB device accessible
via rpmb_route_frames().
The detailed operation of implementing the access is left to the TEE
device driver itself.

Currently 3 variants of this device exists. Every variant has its own
PCI device ID, which is used to determine the list of available IP
cores. In this first version only the auxiliary device for the I2C
controller is registered.
Besides the auxiliary device registration some other basic functions of
the FPGA are implemented; e.g, FPGA version sysfs file, keep FPGA

pci1xxxx is a PCIe switch with a multi-function endpoint on one of its
downstream ports. PIO function is one of the functions in the
multi-function endpoint. PIO function combines a GPIO controller and also
an interface to program pci1xxxx's OTP & EEPROM. This auxiliary bus driver
is loaded for the PIO function and separate child devices are enumerated
for GPIO controller and OTP/EEPROM interface.

This driver creates per-cpu hrtimers which are required to do the
periodic 'pet' operation. On a conventional watchdog-core driver, the
userspace is responsible for delivering the 'pet' events by writing to
the particular /dev/watchdogN node. In this case we require a strong
thread affinity to be able to account for lost time on a per vCPU.
This part of the driver is the 'frontend' which is reponsible for
delivering the periodic 'pet' events, configuring the virtual peripheral
and listening for cpu hotplug events. The other part of the driver is
an emulated MMIO device which is part of the KVM virtual machine
monitor and this part accounts for lost time by looking at the
/proc/{}/task/{}/stat entries.

Open Profile for DICE is an open protocol for measured boot compatible
with the Trusted Computing Group's Device Identifier Composition
Engine (DICE) specification. The generated Compound Device Identifier
(CDI) certificates represent the hardware/software combination measured
by DICE, and can be used for remote attestation and sealing.
Add a driver that exposes reserved memory regions populated by firmware
with DICE CDIs and exposes them to userspace via a character device.
Userspace obtains the memory region's size from read() and calls mmap()
to create a mapping of the memory region in its address space. The
mapping is not allowed to be write+shared, giving userspace a guarantee
that the data were not overwritten by another process.
Userspace can also call write(), which triggers a wipe of the DICE data
by the driver. Because both the kernel and userspace mappings use
write-combine semantics, all clients observe the memory as zeroed after
the syscall has returned.

Here is the big set of staging and IIO driver updates for 5.15-rc1.
Also included in here are the counter driver subsystem updates as the
IIO drivers needed them.
Lots of churn in some staging drivers, we dropped the "old" rtl8188eu
driver and replaced it with a newer version of the driver that had been
maintained out-of-tree by Larry with the end goal of actually being able
to get this driver out of staging eventually. Despite that driver being
"newer" the line count of this pull request is going up.
Some drivers moved out of staging as well, which is always nice to see,
that is why there are additions to the mfc and misc driver subsystems.
All of these were acked by the various subsystem maintainers involved.
But by far, as normal, it's coding style cleanups all over the
drivers/staging/ tree in here.
Full details of these changes are in the shortlog.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

General Electric Healthcare's PPD has a secondary processor from
NXP's Kinetis K20 series. That device has two SPI chip selects:
The main interface's behaviour depends on the loaded firmware
and is currently unused.
The secondary interface can be used to update the firmware using
EzPort protocol. This is implemented by this driver using the
kernel's firmware API. The firmware is being flashed into
non-volatile flash memory, so it is enough to flash it once
and not on every boot. Flashing will wear the flash memory
(it has a life time of at least 10k programming cycles). At
the same time only occasional FW updates are expected (like e.g.
a BIOS update). Thus the firmware update is triggered via sysfs
instead of doing it in the driver's probe routine like many
other drivers.

Intel Moorestown and Medfield are quite old Intel Atom based
32-bit platforms, which were in limited use in some Android phones,
tablets and consumer electronics more than eight years ago.
There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel
for breaking any of that platforms for years. It seems no real
users exists who run more or less fresh kernel on it. The commit
05f4434bc1 ("ASoC: Intel: remove mfld_machine") also in align
with this theory.
Due to above and to reduce a burden of supporting outdated drivers
we remove the support of outdated platforms completely.

The only thing that vexpress-syscfg does is provide a regmap to
vexpress-config bus child devices. There's little reason to have 2
components for this. The current structure with initcall ordering
requirements makes turning these components into modules more difficult.
So let's start to simplify things and merge vexpress-syscfg into
vexpress-config. There's no functional change in this commit and it's
still separate components until subsequent commits.

Uacce (Unified/User-space-access-intended Accelerator Framework) targets to
provide Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) between accelerators and processes.
So accelerator can access any data structure of the main cpu.
This differs from the data sharing between cpu and io device, which share
only data content rather than address.
Since unified address, hardware and user space of process can share the
same virtual address in the communication.
Uacce create a chrdev for every registration, the queue is allocated to
the process when the chrdev is opened. Then the process can access the
hardware resource by interact with the queue file. By mmap the queue
file space to user space, the process can directly put requests to the
hardware without syscall to the kernel space.
The IOMMU core only tracks mm<->device bonds at the moment, because it
only needs to handle IOTLB invalidation and PASID table entries. However
uacce needs a finer granularity since multiple queues from the same
device can be bound to an mm. When the mm exits, all bound queues must
be stopped so that the IOMMU can safely clear the PASID table entry and
reallocate the PASID.
An intermediate struct uacce_mm links uacce devices and queues.
Note that an mm may be bound to multiple devices but an uacce_mm
structure only ever belongs to a single device, because we don't need
anything more complex (if multiple devices are bound to one mm, then
we'll create one uacce_mm for each bond).
uacce_device --+-- uacce_mm --+-- uacce_queue
| '-- uacce_queue

This is single LUN HW and it is expected to work with following standards:
- Support SDR104 / SDR50
- MultiMedia Card (MMC)
- Memory Stick (MS)
- Memory Stick PRO (MS_Pro)
Since it is a PCIe controller, it should work on any architecture
supporting PCIe. For now, it was developed and tested only on x86_64.
This driver is a result of RE work and was created without any
documentation or real knowledge of HW internals.

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.
