What: /sys/block/<disk>/alignment_offset
Date: April 2009
Contact: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
Storage devices may report a physical block size that is
bigger than the logical block size (for instance a drive
with 4KB physical sectors exposing 512-byte logical
blocks to the operating system). This parameter
indicates how many bytes the beginning of the device is
offset from the disk's natural alignment.

Storage devices may report a physical block size that is
bigger than the logical block size (for instance a drive
with 4KB physical sectors exposing 512-byte logical

What: /sys/block/<disk>/queue/physical_block_size
Date: May 2009
Contact: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
This is the smallest unit the storage device can write
without resorting to read-modify-write operation. It is
usually the same as the logical block size but may be
bigger. One example is SATA drives with 4KB sectors
that expose a 512-byte logical block size to the
operating system.
What: /sys/block/<disk>/queue/minimum_io_size
Date: April 2009
Contact: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
Storage devices may report a preferred minimum I/O size,
which is the smallest request the device can perform
without incurring a read-modify-write penalty. For disk
drives this is often the physical block size. For RAID
arrays it is often the stripe chunk size.
What: /sys/block/<disk>/queue/optimal_io_size
Date: April 2009
Contact: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
Storage devices may report an optimal I/O size, which is
the device's preferred unit of receiving I/O. This is
rarely reported for disk drives. For RAID devices it is
usually the stripe width or the internal block size.

Description: These files exist in every cpu's cache index directories.
There are currently 2 cache_disable_# files in each
directory. Reading from these files on a supported
processor will return that cache disable index value
for that processor and node. Writing to one of these
files will cause the specificed cache index to be disabled.
Currently, only AMD Family 10h Processors support cache index
disable, and only for their L3 caches. See the BIOS and
Kernel Developer's Guide at

You can write a name of a driver into this file
to limit the debug output to requests from that
particular driver. Write an empty string to
that file to disable the filter and see
all errors again.
If you have this code compiled into your kernel it will be enabled by default.
If you want to boot without the bookkeeping anyway you can provide
'dma_debug=off' as a boot parameter. This will disable DMA-API debugging.
Notice that you can not enable it again at runtime. You have to reboot to do
so.
If you want to see debug messages only for a special device driver you can
specify the dma_debug_driver=<drivername> parameter. This will enable the
driver filter at boot time. The debug code will only print errors for that
driver afterwards. This filter can be disabled or changed later using debugfs.
When the code disables itself at runtime this is most likely because it ran
out of dma_debug_entries. These entries are preallocated at boot. The number
of preallocated entries is defined per architecture. If it is too low for you

Tracepoints are static probe points that are located in strategic points
throughout the kernel. 'Probes' register/unregister with tracepoints
via a callback mechanism. The 'probes' are strictly typed functions that
are passed a unique set of parameters defined by each tracepoint.
</para>
<para>
From this simple callback mechanism, 'probes' can be used to profile, debug,
and understand kernel behavior. There are a number of tools that provide a
framework for using 'probes'. These tools include Systemtap, ftrace, and
LTTng.
</para>
<para>
Tracepoints are defined in a number of header files via various macros. Thus,
the purpose of this document is to provide a clear accounting of the available
tracepoints. The intention is to understand not only what tracepoints are
available but also to understand where future tracepoints might be added.
</para>
<para>
The API presented has functions of the form:
<function>trace_tracepointname(function parameters)</function>. These are the
tracepoints callbacks that are found throughout the code. Registering and
unregistering probes with these callback sites is covered in the
<filename>Documentation/trace/*</filename> directory.

As always, this is once again split into "rcu" and "rcu_bh" portions.
The fields are as follows:
o "np" is the number of times that __rcu_pending() has been invoked
for the corresponding flavor of RCU.
o "qsp" is the number of times that the RCU was waiting for a
quiescent state from this CPU.
o "cbr" is the number of times that this CPU had RCU callbacks
that had passed through a grace period, and were thus ready
to be invoked.
o "cng" is the number of times that this CPU needed another
grace period while RCU was idle.
o "gpc" is the number of times that an old grace period had
completed, but this CPU was not yet aware of it.
o "gps" is the number of times that a new grace period had started,
but this CPU was not yet aware of it.
o "nf" is the number of times that this CPU suspected that the
current grace period had run for too long, and thus needed to
be forced.
Please note that "forcing" consists of sending resched IPIs
to holdout CPUs. If that CPU really still is in an old RCU
read-side critical section, then we really do have to wait for it.
The assumption behing "forcing" is that the CPU is not still in
an old RCU read-side critical section, but has not yet responded
for some other reason.
o "nn" is the number of times that this CPU needed nothing. Alert
readers will note that the rcu "nn" number for a given CPU very
closely matches the rcu_bh "np" number for that same CPU. This
is due to short-circuit evaluation in rcu_pending().

Copyright 2009 Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
Debugfs exists as a simple way for kernel developers to make information
available to user space. Unlike /proc, which is only meant for information
about a process, or sysfs, which has strict one-value-per-file rules,
debugfs has no rules at all. Developers can put any information they want
there. The debugfs filesystem is also intended to not serve as a stable
ABI to user space; in theory, there are no stability constraints placed on
files exported there. The real world is not always so simple, though [1];
even debugfs interfaces are best designed with the idea that they will need
to be maintained forever.
Debugfs is typically mounted with a command like:
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
(Or an equivalent /etc/fstab line).
Note that the debugfs API is exported GPL-only to modules.
Code using debugfs should include <linux/debugfs.h>. Then, the first order
of business will be to create at least one directory to hold a set of
debugfs files:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent);
This call, if successful, will make a directory called name underneath the
indicated parent directory. If parent is NULL, the directory will be
created in the debugfs root. On success, the return value is a struct
dentry pointer which can be used to create files in the directory (and to
clean it up at the end). A NULL return value indicates that something went
wrong. If ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) is returned, that is an indication that the
kernel has been built without debugfs support and none of the functions
described below will work.
The most general way to create a file within a debugfs directory is with:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_file(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, void *data,
const struct file_operations *fops);
Here, name is the name of the file to create, mode describes the access
permissions the file should have, parent indicates the directory which
should hold the file, data will be stored in the i_private field of the
resulting inode structure, and fops is a set of file operations which
implement the file's behavior. At a minimum, the read() and/or write()
operations should be provided; others can be included as needed. Again,
the return value will be a dentry pointer to the created file, NULL for
error, or ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) if debugfs support is missing.
In a number of cases, the creation of a set of file operations is not
actually necessary; the debugfs code provides a number of helper functions
for simple situations. Files containing a single integer value can be
created with any of:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_u8(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u8 *value);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_u16(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u16 *value);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_u32(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_u64(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u64 *value);
These files support both reading and writing the given value; if a specific
file should not be written to, simply set the mode bits accordingly. The
values in these files are in decimal; if hexadecimal is more appropriate,
the following functions can be used instead:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_x8(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u8 *value);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_x16(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u16 *value);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_x32(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
Note that there is no debugfs_create_x64().
These functions are useful as long as the developer knows the size of the
value to be exported. Some types can have different widths on different
architectures, though, complicating the situation somewhat. There is a
function meant to help out in one special case:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_size_t(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent,
size_t *value);
As might be expected, this function will create a debugfs file to represent
a variable of type size_t.
Boolean values can be placed in debugfs with:
struct dentry *debugfs_create_bool(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
A read on the resulting file will yield either Y (for non-zero values) or
N, followed by a newline. If written to, it will accept either upper- or
lower-case values, or 1 or 0. Any other input will be silently ignored.
Finally, a block of arbitrary binary data can be exported with:
struct debugfs_blob_wrapper {
void *data;
unsigned long size;
};
struct dentry *debugfs_create_blob(const char *name, mode_t mode,
struct dentry *parent,
struct debugfs_blob_wrapper *blob);
A read of this file will return the data pointed to by the
debugfs_blob_wrapper structure. Some drivers use "blobs" as a simple way
to return several lines of (static) formatted text output. This function
can be used to export binary information, but there does not appear to be
any code which does so in the mainline. Note that all files created with
debugfs_create_blob() are read-only.
There are a couple of other directory-oriented helper functions:
struct dentry *debugfs_rename(struct dentry *old_dir,
struct dentry *old_dentry,
struct dentry *new_dir,
const char *new_name);
struct dentry *debugfs_create_symlink(const char *name,
struct dentry *parent,
const char *target);
A call to debugfs_rename() will give a new name to an existing debugfs
file, possibly in a different directory. The new_name must not exist prior
to the call; the return value is old_dentry with updated information.
Symbolic links can be created with debugfs_create_symlink().
There is one important thing that all debugfs users must take into account:
there is no automatic cleanup of any directories created in debugfs. If a
module is unloaded without explicitly removing debugfs entries, the result
will be a lot of stale pointers and no end of highly antisocial behavior.
So all debugfs users - at least those which can be built as modules - must
be prepared to remove all files and directories they create there. A file
can be removed with:
void debugfs_remove(struct dentry *dentry);
The dentry value can be NULL, in which case nothing will be removed.
Once upon a time, debugfs users were required to remember the dentry
pointer for every debugfs file they created so that all files could be
cleaned up. We live in more civilized times now, though, and debugfs users
can call:
void debugfs_remove_recursive(struct dentry *dentry);
If this function is passed a pointer for the dentry corresponding to the
top-level directory, the entire hierarchy below that directory will be
removed.

Futex Requeue PI
----------------
Requeueing of tasks from a non-PI futex to a PI futex requires
special handling in order to ensure the underlying rt_mutex is never
left without an owner if it has waiters; doing so would break the PI
boosting logic [see rt-mutex-desgin.txt] For the purposes of
brevity, this action will be referred to as "requeue_pi" throughout
this document. Priority inheritance is abbreviated throughout as
"PI".
Motivation
----------
Without requeue_pi, the glibc implementation of
pthread_cond_broadcast() must resort to waking all the tasks waiting
on a pthread_condvar and letting them try to sort out which task
gets to run first in classic thundering-herd formation. An ideal
implementation would wake the highest-priority waiter, and leave the
rest to the natural wakeup inherent in unlocking the mutex
associated with the condvar.
Consider the simplified glibc calls:
/* caller must lock mutex */
pthread_cond_wait(cond, mutex)
{
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
unlock(mutex);
do {
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
futex_wait(cond->__data.__futex);
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
} while(...)
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
lock(mutex);
}
pthread_cond_broadcast(cond)
{
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
futex_requeue(cond->data.__futex, cond->mutex);
}
Once pthread_cond_broadcast() requeues the tasks, the cond->mutex
has waiters. Note that pthread_cond_wait() attempts to lock the
mutex only after it has returned to user space. This will leave the
underlying rt_mutex with waiters, and no owner, breaking the
previously mentioned PI-boosting algorithms.
In order to support PI-aware pthread_condvar's, the kernel needs to
be able to requeue tasks to PI futexes. This support implies that
upon a successful futex_wait system call, the caller would return to
user space already holding the PI futex. The glibc implementation
would be modified as follows:
/* caller must lock mutex */
pthread_cond_wait_pi(cond, mutex)
{
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
unlock(mutex);
do {
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
futex_wait_requeue_pi(cond->__data.__futex);
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
} while(...)
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
/* the kernel acquired the the mutex for us */
}
pthread_cond_broadcast_pi(cond)
{
lock(cond->__data.__lock);
unlock(cond->__data.__lock);
futex_requeue_pi(cond->data.__futex, cond->mutex);
}
The actual glibc implementation will likely test for PI and make the
necessary changes inside the existing calls rather than creating new
calls for the PI cases. Similar changes are needed for
pthread_cond_timedwait() and pthread_cond_signal().
Implementation
--------------
In order to ensure the rt_mutex has an owner if it has waiters, it
is necessary for both the requeue code, as well as the waiting code,
to be able to acquire the rt_mutex before returning to user space.
The requeue code cannot simply wake the waiter and leave it to
acquire the rt_mutex as it would open a race window between the
requeue call returning to user space and the waiter waking and
starting to run. This is especially true in the uncontended case.
The solution involves two new rt_mutex helper routines,
rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() and rt_mutex_finish_proxy_lock(), which
allow the requeue code to acquire an uncontended rt_mutex on behalf
of the waiter and to enqueue the waiter on a contended rt_mutex.
Two new system calls provide the kernel<->user interface to
requeue_pi: FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI and FUTEX_REQUEUE_CMP_PI.
FUTEX_WAIT_REQUEUE_PI is called by the waiter (pthread_cond_wait()
and pthread_cond_timedwait()) to block on the initial futex and wait
to be requeued to a PI-aware futex. The implementation is the
result of a high-speed collision between futex_wait() and
futex_lock_pi(), with some extra logic to check for the additional
wake-up scenarios.
FUTEX_REQUEUE_CMP_PI is called by the waker
(pthread_cond_broadcast() and pthread_cond_signal()) to requeue and
possibly wake the waiting tasks. Internally, this system call is
still handled by futex_requeue (by passing requeue_pi=1). Before
requeueing, futex_requeue() attempts to acquire the requeue target
PI futex on behalf of the top waiter. If it can, this waiter is
woken. futex_requeue() then proceeds to requeue the remaining
nr_wake+nr_requeue tasks to the PI futex, calling
rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() prior to each requeue to prepare the
task as a waiter on the underlying rt_mutex. It is possible that
the lock can be acquired at this stage as well, if so, the next
waiter is woken to finish the acquisition of the lock.
FUTEX_REQUEUE_PI accepts nr_wake and nr_requeue as arguments, but
their sum is all that really matters. futex_requeue() will wake or
requeue up to nr_wake + nr_requeue tasks. It will wake only as many
tasks as it can acquire the lock for, which in the majority of cases
should be 0 as good programming practice dictates that the caller of
either pthread_cond_broadcast() or pthread_cond_signal() acquire the
mutex prior to making the call. FUTEX_REQUEUE_PI requires that
nr_wake=1. nr_requeue should be INT_MAX for broadcast and 0 for
signal.

Kernel Memory Leak Detector
===========================
Introduction
------------
Kmemleak provides a way of detecting possible kernel memory leaks in a
way similar to a tracing garbage collector
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_collection_%28computer_science%29#Tracing_garbage_collectors),
with the difference that the orphan objects are not freed but only
reported via /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. A similar method is used by the
Valgrind tool (memcheck --leak-check) to detect the memory leaks in
user-space applications.
Usage
-----
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK in "Kernel hacking" has to be enabled. A kernel
thread scans the memory every 10 minutes (by default) and prints any new
unreferenced objects found. To trigger an intermediate scan and display
all the possible memory leaks:
# mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug/
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
Note that the orphan objects are listed in the order they were allocated
and one object at the beginning of the list may cause other subsequent
objects to be reported as orphan.
Memory scanning parameters can be modified at run-time by writing to the
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak file. The following parameters are supported:
off - disable kmemleak (irreversible)
stack=on - enable the task stacks scanning
stack=off - disable the tasks stacks scanning
scan=on - start the automatic memory scanning thread
scan=off - stop the automatic memory scanning thread
scan=<secs> - set the automatic memory scanning period in seconds (0
to disable it)
Kmemleak can also be disabled at boot-time by passing "kmemleak=off" on
the kernel command line.
Basic Algorithm
---------------
The memory allocations via kmalloc, vmalloc, kmem_cache_alloc and
friends are traced and the pointers, together with additional
information like size and stack trace, are stored in a prio search tree.
The corresponding freeing function calls are tracked and the pointers
removed from the kmemleak data structures.
An allocated block of memory is considered orphan if no pointer to its
start address or to any location inside the block can be found by
scanning the memory (including saved registers). This means that there
might be no way for the kernel to pass the address of the allocated
block to a freeing function and therefore the block is considered a
memory leak.
The scanning algorithm steps:
1. mark all objects as white (remaining white objects will later be
considered orphan)
2. scan the memory starting with the data section and stacks, checking
the values against the addresses stored in the prio search tree. If
a pointer to a white object is found, the object is added to the
gray list
3. scan the gray objects for matching addresses (some white objects
can become gray and added at the end of the gray list) until the
gray set is finished
4. the remaining white objects are considered orphan and reported via
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
Some allocated memory blocks have pointers stored in the kernel's
internal data structures and they cannot be detected as orphans. To
avoid this, kmemleak can also store the number of values pointing to an
address inside the block address range that need to be found so that the
block is not considered a leak. One example is __vmalloc().
Kmemleak API
------------
See the include/linux/kmemleak.h header for the functions prototype.
kmemleak_init - initialize kmemleak
kmemleak_alloc - notify of a memory block allocation
kmemleak_free - notify of a memory block freeing
kmemleak_not_leak - mark an object as not a leak
kmemleak_ignore - do not scan or report an object as leak
kmemleak_scan_area - add scan areas inside a memory block
kmemleak_no_scan - do not scan a memory block
kmemleak_erase - erase an old value in a pointer variable
kmemleak_alloc_recursive - as kmemleak_alloc but checks the recursiveness
kmemleak_free_recursive - as kmemleak_free but checks the recursiveness
Dealing with false positives/negatives
--------------------------------------
The false negatives are real memory leaks (orphan objects) but not
reported by kmemleak because values found during the memory scanning
point to such objects. To reduce the number of false negatives, kmemleak
provides the kmemleak_ignore, kmemleak_scan_area, kmemleak_no_scan and
kmemleak_erase functions (see above). The task stacks also increase the
amount of false negatives and their scanning is not enabled by default.
The false positives are objects wrongly reported as being memory leaks
(orphan). For objects known not to be leaks, kmemleak provides the
kmemleak_not_leak function. The kmemleak_ignore could also be used if
the memory block is known not to contain other pointers and it will no
longer be scanned.
Some of the reported leaks are only transient, especially on SMP
systems, because of pointers temporarily stored in CPU registers or
stacks. Kmemleak defines MSECS_MIN_AGE (defaulting to 1000) representing
the minimum age of an object to be reported as a memory leak.
Limitations and Drawbacks
-------------------------
The main drawback is the reduced performance of memory allocation and
freeing. To avoid other penalties, the memory scanning is only performed
when the /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak file is read. Anyway, this tool is
intended for debugging purposes where the performance might not be the
most important requirement.
To keep the algorithm simple, kmemleak scans for values pointing to any
address inside a block's address range. This may lead to an increased
number of false negatives. However, it is likely that a real memory leak
will eventually become visible.
Another source of false negatives is the data stored in non-pointer
values. In a future version, kmemleak could only scan the pointer
members in the allocated structures. This feature would solve many of
the false negative cases described above.
The tool can report false positives. These are cases where an allocated
block doesn't need to be freed (some cases in the init_call functions),
the pointer is calculated by other methods than the usual container_of
macro or the pointer is stored in a location not scanned by kmemleak.
Page allocations and ioremap are not tracked. Only the ARM and x86
architectures are currently supported.

SLEEP AND WAKE-UP FUNCTIONS
---------------------------
Sleeping and waking on an event flagged in global data can be viewed as an
interaction between two pieces of data: the task state of the task waiting for
the event and the global data used to indicate the event. To make sure that
these appear to happen in the right order, the primitives to begin the process
of going to sleep, and the primitives to initiate a wake up imply certain
barriers.
Firstly, the sleeper normally follows something like this sequence of events:
for (;;) {
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
if (event_indicated)
break;
schedule();
}
A general memory barrier is interpolated automatically by set_current_state()
after it has altered the task state:
CPU 1
===============================
set_current_state();
set_mb();
STORE current->state
<general barrier>
LOAD event_indicated
set_current_state() may be wrapped by:
prepare_to_wait();
prepare_to_wait_exclusive();
which therefore also imply a general memory barrier after setting the state.
The whole sequence above is available in various canned forms, all of which
interpolate the memory barrier in the right place:
wait_event();
wait_event_interruptible();
wait_event_interruptible_exclusive();
wait_event_interruptible_timeout();
wait_event_killable();
wait_event_timeout();
wait_on_bit();
wait_on_bit_lock();
Secondly, code that performs a wake up normally follows something like this:
event_indicated = 1;
wake_up(&event_wait_queue);
or:
event_indicated = 1;
wake_up_process(event_daemon);
A write memory barrier is implied by wake_up() and co. if and only if they wake
something up. The barrier occurs before the task state is cleared, and so sits
between the STORE to indicate the event and the STORE to set TASK_RUNNING:
CPU 1 CPU 2
=============================== ===============================
set_current_state(); STORE event_indicated
set_mb(); wake_up();
STORE current->state <write barrier>
<general barrier> STORE current->state
LOAD event_indicated
The available waker functions include:
complete();
wake_up();
wake_up_all();
wake_up_bit();
wake_up_interruptible();
wake_up_interruptible_all();
wake_up_interruptible_nr();
wake_up_interruptible_poll();
wake_up_interruptible_sync();
wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll();
wake_up_locked();
wake_up_locked_poll();
wake_up_nr();
wake_up_poll();
wake_up_process();
[!] Note that the memory barriers implied by the sleeper and the waker do _not_
order multiple stores before the wake-up with respect to loads of those stored
values after the sleeper has called set_current_state(). For instance, if the
sleeper does:
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (event_indicated)
break;
__set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING);
do_something(my_data);
and the waker does:
my_data = value;
event_indicated = 1;
wake_up(&event_wait_queue);
there's no guarantee that the change to event_indicated will be perceived by
the sleeper as coming after the change to my_data. In such a circumstance, the
code on both sides must interpolate its own memory barriers between the
separate data accesses. Thus the above sleeper ought to do:
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (event_indicated) {
smp_rmb();
do_something(my_data);
}
and the waker should do:
my_data = value;
smp_wmb();
event_indicated = 1;
wake_up(&event_wait_queue);

NOTE: The following is the original document of Rainer's patch that the
current maya44 code based on. Some contents might be obsoleted, but I
keep here as reference -- tiwai
----------------------------------------------------------------
STATE OF DEVELOPMENT:
This driver is being developed on the initiative of Piotr Makowski (oponek@gmail.com) and financed by Lars Bergmann.
Development is carried out by Rainer Zimmermann (mail@lightshed.de).
ESI provided a sample Maya44 card for the development work.
However, unfortunately it has turned out difficult to get detailed programming information, so I (Rainer Zimmermann) had to find out some card-specific information by experiment and conjecture. Some information (in particular, several GPIO bits) is still missing.
This is the first testing version of the Maya44 driver released to the alsa-devel mailing list (Feb 5, 2008).
The following functions work, as tested by Rainer Zimmermann and Piotr Makowski:
- playback and capture at all sampling rates
- input/output level
- crossmixing
- line/mic switch
- phantom power switch
- analogue monitor a.k.a bypass
The following functions *should* work, but are not fully tested:
- Channel 3+4 analogue - S/PDIF input switching
- S/PDIF output
- all inputs/outputs on the M/IO/DIO extension card
- internal/external clock selection
*In particular, we would appreciate testing of these functions by anyone who has access to an M/IO/DIO extension card.*
Things that do not seem to work:
- The level meters ("multi track") in 'alsamixer' do not seem to react to signals in (if this is a bug, it would probably be in the existing ICE1724 code).
- Ardour 2.1 seems to work only via JACK, not using ALSA directly or via OSS. This still needs to be tracked down.
DRIVER DETAILS:
the following files were added:
pci/ice1724/maya44.c - Maya44 specific code
pci/ice1724/maya44.h
pci/ice1724/ice1724.patch
pci/ice1724/ice1724.h.patch - PROPOSED patch to ice1724.h (see SAMPLING RATES)
i2c/other/wm8776.c - low-level access routines for Wolfson WM8776 codecs
include/wm8776.h
Note that the wm8776.c code is meant to be card-independent and does not actually register the codec with the ALSA infrastructure.
This is done in maya44.c, mainly because some of the WM8776 controls are used in Maya44-specific ways, and should be named appropriately.
the following files were created in pci/ice1724, simply #including the corresponding file from the alsa-kernel tree:
wtm.h
vt1720_mobo.h
revo.h
prodigy192.h
pontis.h
phase.h
maya44.h
juli.h
aureon.h
amp.h
envy24ht.h
se.h
prodigy_hifi.h
*I hope this is the correct way to do things.*
SAMPLING RATES:
The Maya44 card (or more exactly, the Wolfson WM8776 codecs) allow a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz for playback and 92 kHz for capture.
As the ICE1724 chip only allows one global sampling rate, this is handled as follows:
* setting the sampling rate on any open PCM device on the maya44 card will always set the *global* sampling rate for all playback and capture channels.
* In the current state of the driver, setting rates of up to 192 kHz is permitted even for capture devices.
*AVOID CAPTURING AT RATES ABOVE 96kHz*, even though it may appear to work. The codec cannot actually capture at such rates, meaning poor quality.
I propose some additional code for limiting the sampling rate when setting on a capture pcm device. However because of the global sampling rate, this logic would be somewhat problematic.
The proposed code (currently deactivated) is in ice1712.h.patch, ice1724.c and maya44.c (in pci/ice1712).
SOUND DEVICES:
PCM devices correspond to inputs/outputs as follows (assuming Maya44 is card #0):
hw:0,0 input - stereo, analog input 1+2
hw:0,0 output - stereo, analog output 1+2
hw:0,1 input - stereo, analog input 3+4 OR S/PDIF input
hw:0,1 output - stereo, analog output 3+4 (and SPDIF out)
NAMING OF MIXER CONTROLS:
(for more information about the signal flow, please refer to the block diagram on p.24 of the ESI Maya44 manual, or in the ESI windows software).
PCM: (digital) output level for channel 1+2
PCM 1: same for channel 3+4
Mic Phantom+48V: switch for +48V phantom power for electrostatic microphones on input 1/2.
Make sure this is not turned on while any other source is connected to input 1/2.
It might damage the source and/or the maya44 card.
Mic/Line input: if switch is is on, input jack 1/2 is microphone input (mono), otherwise line input (stereo).
Bypass: analogue bypass from ADC input to output for channel 1+2. Same as "Monitor" in the windows driver.
Bypass 1: same for channel 3+4.
Crossmix: cross-mixer from channels 1+2 to channels 3+4
Crossmix 1: cross-mixer from channels 3+4 to channels 1+2
IEC958 Output: switch for S/PDIF output.
This is not supported by the ESI windows driver.
S/PDIF should output the same signal as channel 3+4. [untested!]
Digitial output selectors:
These switches allow a direct digital routing from the ADCs to the DACs.
Each switch determines where the digital input data to one of the DACs comes from.
They are not supported by the ESI windows driver.
For normal operation, they should all be set to "PCM out".
H/W: Output source channel 1
H/W 1: Output source channel 2
H/W 2: Output source channel 3
H/W 3: Output source channel 4
H/W 4 ... H/W 9: unknown function, left in to enable testing.
Possibly some of these control S/PDIF output(s).
If these turn out to be unused, they will go away in later driver versions.
Selectable values for each of the digital output selectors are:
"PCM out" -> DAC output of the corresponding channel (default setting)
"Input 1"...
"Input 4" -> direct routing from ADC output of the selected input channel

Event Tracing
Documentation written by Theodore Ts'o
Updated by Li Zefan
1. Introduction
===============
Tracepoints (see Documentation/trace/tracepoints.txt) can be used
without creating custom kernel modules to register probe functions
using the event tracing infrastructure.
Not all tracepoints can be traced using the event tracing system;
the kernel developer must provide code snippets which define how the
tracing information is saved into the tracing buffer, and how the
tracing information should be printed.
2. Using Event Tracing
======================
2.1 Via the 'set_event' interface
---------------------------------
The events which are available for tracing can be found in the file
/debug/tracing/available_events.
To enable a particular event, such as 'sched_wakeup', simply echo it
to /debug/tracing/set_event. For example:
# echo sched_wakeup >> /debug/tracing/set_event
[ Note: '>>' is necessary, otherwise it will firstly disable
all the events. ]
To disable an event, echo the event name to the set_event file prefixed
with an exclamation point:
# echo '!sched_wakeup' >> /debug/tracing/set_event
To disable all events, echo an empty line to the set_event file:
# echo > /debug/tracing/set_event
To enable all events, echo '*:*' or '*:' to the set_event file:
# echo *:* > /debug/tracing/set_event
The events are organized into subsystems, such as ext4, irq, sched,
etc., and a full event name looks like this: <subsystem>:<event>. The
subsystem name is optional, but it is displayed in the available_events
file. All of the events in a subsystem can be specified via the syntax
"<subsystem>:*"; for example, to enable all irq events, you can use the
command:
# echo 'irq:*' > /debug/tracing/set_event
2.2 Via the 'enable' toggle
---------------------------
The events available are also listed in /debug/tracing/events/ hierarchy
of directories.
To enable event 'sched_wakeup':
# echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/enable
To disable it:
# echo 0 > /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/enable
To enable all events in sched subsystem:
# echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/sched/enable
To eanble all events:
# echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/enable
When reading one of these enable files, there are four results:
0 - all events this file affects are disabled
1 - all events this file affects are enabled
X - there is a mixture of events enabled and disabled
? - this file does not affect any event
3. Defining an event-enabled tracepoint
