Merge tag 'i3c/for-7.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/i3c/linuxgrafted
Pull I3C updates from Alexandre Belloni:
"A new driver this cycle, for the AMD AXI I3C controller.
There are also new features such as IBI wakeup support, SETAASA device
discovery and ACPI support for the the DAA methods, meaning we can now
communicate with the SPD devices on DDR5 modules.
New driver:
- AMD AXI I3C master controller
Subsystem:
- I3C Common Command Code (CCC) handling improvements, especially
around GET CCCs
- SETAASA device discovery support
- ACPI support for all existing DAA methods like SETDASA, SETNEWDA as
well as I2C devices on I3C bus
- IBI-based wakeup support
Drivers:
- dw: SETAASA support
- mipi-i3c-hci: advertise IBI wakeup capability, AMD_PT I3C
controller support, PIO queue management support for HCI v1.2
- renesas: improve suspend to RAM support, add runtime PM support"

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=================== +MIPI SyS-T over STP +=================== + +The MIPI SyS-T protocol driver can be used with STM class devices to +generate standardized trace stream. Aside from being a standard, it +provides better trace source identification and timestamp correlation. + +In order to use the MIPI SyS-T protocol driver with your STM device, +first, you'll need CONFIG_STM_PROTO_SYS_T. + +Now, you can select which protocol driver you want to use when you create +a policy for your STM device, by specifying it in the policy name: + +# mkdir /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/ + +In other words, the policy name format is extended like this: + + <device_name>:<protocol_name>.<policy_name> + +With Intel TH, therefore it can look like "0-sth:p_sys-t.my-policy". + +If the protocol name is omitted, the STM class will chose whichever +protocol driver was loaded first. + +You can also double check that everything is working as expected by + +# cat /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/protocol +p_sys-t + +Now, with the MIPI SyS-T protocol driver, each policy node in the +configfs gets a few additional attributes, which determine per-source +parameters specific to the protocol: + +# mkdir /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/default +# ls /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/default +channels +clocksync_interval +do_len +masters +ts_interval +uuid + +The most important one here is the "uuid", which determines the UUID +that will be used to tag all data coming from this source.

It is off by default as the STP already +marks message boundaries. + +ts_interval and clocksync_interval determine how much time in milliseconds +can pass before we need to include a protocol (not transport, aka STP) +timestamp in a message header or send a CLOCKSYNC packet, respectively. + +See Documentation/ABI/testing/configfs-stp-policy-p_sys-t for more +details. + +* [1] https://www.mipi.org/specifications/sys-t |
