arm64/boot: Disable trapping of PMZR_EL0 writes to EL2grafted
__init_el2_fgt2() writes one mask to both HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2.
PMZR_EL0 is write-only, so its trap bit, nPMZR_EL0, exists only in
HDFGWTR2_EL2 and is therefore never set: a PMZR_EL0 write from the host
traps to EL2, where the nVHE hypervisor has no handler and BUG()s. The
kernel never writes PMZR_EL0, but kernel.perf_user_access=1 has the PMU
driver set PMUSERENR_EL0.UEN for a task with a user-read event, so a
write from EL0 reaches the trap and takes the host down without a panic
message.
Accumulate the HDFGWTR2_EL2 bits separately, as __init_el2_fgt() already
does for HDFGWTR_EL2, and set nPMZR_EL0 with the other FEAT_PMUv3p9
bits.

Since it's also a licensed trademark, +some vendors use another name (such as "Two-Wire Interface", TWI) for +the same bus. I2C only needs two signals (SCL for clock, SDA for data), +conserving board real estate and minimizing signal quality issues. Most +I2C devices use seven bit addresses, and bus speeds of up to 400 kHz; +there's a high speed extension (3.4 MHz) that's not yet found wide use. +I2C is a multi-master bus; open drain signaling is used to arbitrate +between masters, as well as to handshake and to synchronize clocks from +slower clients. + +The Linux I2C programming interfaces support the master side of bus +interactions and the slave side. The programming interface is +structured around two kinds of driver, and two kinds of device. An I2C +"Adapter Driver" abstracts the controller hardware; it binds to a +physical device (perhaps a PCI device or platform_device) and exposes a +:c:type:`struct i2c_adapter <i2c_adapter>` representing each +I2C bus segment it manages. On each I2C bus segment will be I2C devices +represented by a :c:type:`struct i2c_client <i2c_client>`. +Those devices will be bound to a :c:type:`struct i2c_driver +<i2c_driver>`, which should follow the standard Linux driver model. There +are functions to perform various I2C protocol operations; at this writing +all such functions are usable only from task context. + +The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a sibling protocol. Most SMBus +systems are also I2C conformant. The electrical constraints are tighter +for SMBus, and it standardizes particular protocol messages and idioms. +Controllers that support I2C can also support most SMBus operations, but +SMBus controllers don't support all the protocol options that an I2C +controller will. There are functions to perform various SMBus protocol +operations, either using I2C primitives or by issuing SMBus commands to +i2c_adapter devices which don't support those I2C operations. + +.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/i2c.h + :internal: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/i2c/i2c-boardinfo.c + :functions: i2c_register_board_info + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c + :export: + +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/i2c/i2c-core-smbus.c + :export: |
