ABI testing symbols

Documents interfaces that are felt to be stable, as the main development of this interface has been completed.

The interface can be changed to add new features, but the current interface will not break by doing this, unless grave errors or security problems are found in them.

Userspace programs can start to rely on these interfaces, but they must be aware of changes that can occur before these interfaces move to be marked stable.

Programs that use these interfaces are strongly encouraged to add their name to the description of these interfaces, so that the kernel developers can easily notify them if any changes occur.

Attributes are visible only when configfs is mounted. To mount configfs in /config directory use: # mount -t configfs none /config/

In order to set parameters related to a specific HCA, a directory for this HCA has to be created: mkdir -p /config/rdma_cm/<hca>

/config/rdma_cm/<hca>/ports/<port-num>/default_roce_mode

Defined on file configfs-rdma_cm

RDMA-CM based connections from HCA <hca> at port <port-num> will be initiated with this RoCE type as default. The possible RoCE types are either “IB/RoCE v1” or “RoCE v2”. This parameter has RW access.

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy

This group contains policies mandating Master/Channel allocation for software sources wishing to send trace data over an STM device.

/config/stp-policy/<device>.<policy>

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy

This group is the root of a policy; its name is a concatenation of an stm device name to which this policy applies and an arbitrary string. If <device> part doesn’t match an existing stm device, mkdir will fail with ENODEV; if that device already has a policy assigned to it, mkdir will fail with EBUSY.

/config/stp-policy/<device>.<policy>/<node>

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy

Policy node is a string identifier that software clients will use to request a master/channel to be allocated and assigned to them.

/config/stp-policy/<device>.<policy>/<node>/channels

/config/stp-policy/<device>:p_sys-t.<policy>/<node>/do_len

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy-p_sys-t

Include payload length in the MIPI SyS-T header, boolean. If enabled, the SyS-T protocol encoder will include payload length in each packet’s metadata. This is normally redundant if the underlying transport protocol supports marking message boundaries (which STP does), so this is off by default.

/config/stp-policy/<device>:p_sys-t.<policy>/<node>/ts_interval

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy-p_sys-t

Time interval in milliseconds. Include a timestamp in the MIPI SyS-T packet metadata, if this many milliseconds have passed since the previous packet from this source. Zero is the default and stands for “never send the timestamp”.

/config/stp-policy/<device>:p_sys-t.<policy>/<node>/uuid

Defined on file configfs-stp-policy-p_sys-t

UUID source identifier string, RW. Default value is randomly generated at the mkdir <node> time. Data coming from trace sources that use this <node> will be tagged with this UUID in the MIPI SyS-T packet stream, to allow the decoder to discern between different sources within the same master/channel range, and identify the higher level decoders that may be needed for each source.

The following file operations are supported:

open(2)

Currently the only useful flags are O_RDWR.

Symbols under /dev/kmsg

/dev/kmsg

Defined on file dev-kmsg

The /dev/kmsg character device node provides userspace access to the kernel’s printk buffer.

Injecting messages:

Every write() to the opened device node places a log entry in the kernel’s printk buffer.

The logged line can be prefixed with a <N> syslog prefix, which carries the syslog priority and facility. The single decimal prefix number is composed of the 3 lowest bits being the syslog priority and the next 8 bits the syslog facility number.

If no prefix is given, the priority number is the default kernel log priority and the facility number is set to LOG_USER (1). It is not possible to inject messages from userspace with the facility number LOG_KERN (0), to make sure that the origin of the messages can always be reliably determined.

Accessing the buffer:

Every read() from the opened device node receives one record of the kernel’s printk buffer.

The first read() directly following an open() always returns first message in the buffer; there is no kernel-internal persistent state; many readers can concurrently open the device and read from it, without affecting other readers.

Every read() will receive the next available record. If no more records are available read() will block, or if O_NONBLOCK is used -EAGAIN returned.

Messages in the record ring buffer get overwritten as whole, there are never partial messages received by read().

In case messages get overwritten in the circular buffer while the device is kept open, the next read() will return -EPIPE, and the seek position be updated to the next available record. Subsequent reads() will return available records again.

Unlike the classic syslog() interface, the 64 bit record sequence numbers allow to calculate the amount of lost messages, in case the buffer gets overwritten. And they allow to reconnect to the buffer and reconstruct the read position if needed, without limiting the interface to a single reader.

The device supports seek with the following parameters:

SEEK_SET, 0

seek to the first entry in the buffer

SEEK_END, 0

seek after the last entry in the buffer

SEEK_DATA, 0

seek after the last record available at the time the last SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR was issued.

Other seek operations or offsets are not supported because of the special behavior this device has. The device allows to read or write only whole variable length messages (records) that are stored in a ring buffer.

Because of the non-standard behavior also the error values are non-standard. -ESPIPE is returned for non-zero offset. -EINVAL is returned for other operations, e.g. SEEK_CUR. This behavior and values are historical and could not be modified without the risk of breaking userspace.

The output format consists of a prefix carrying the syslog prefix including priority and facility, the 64 bit message sequence number and the monotonic timestamp in microseconds, and a flag field. All fields are separated by a ‘,’.

Future extensions might add more comma separated values before the terminating ‘;’. Unknown fields and values should be gracefully ignored.

The human readable text string starts directly after the ‘;’ and is terminated by a ‘n’. Untrusted values derived from hardware or other facilities are printed, therefore all non-printable characters and ‘' itself in the log message are escaped by “x00” C-style hex encoding.

A line starting with ‘ ‘, is a continuation line, adding key/value pairs to the log message, which provide the machine readable context of the message, for reliable processing in userspace.

Example:

7,160,424069,-;pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [io  0x0000-0x0cf7] (ignored)
 SUBSYSTEM=acpi
 DEVICE=+acpi:PNP0A03:00
6,339,5140900,-;NET: Registered protocol family 10
30,340,5690716,-;udevd[80]: starting version 181

The DEVICE= key uniquely identifies devices the following way:

b12:8

block dev_t

c127:3

char dev_t

n8

netdev ifindex

+sound:card0

subsystem:devname

The flags field carries ‘-’ by default. A ‘c’ indicates a fragment of a line. Note, that these hints about continuation lines are not necessarily correct, and the stream could be interleaved with unrelated messages, but merging the lines in the output usually produces better human readable results. A similar logic is used internally when messages are printed to the console, /proc/kmsg or the syslog() syscall.

By default, kernel tries to avoid fragments by concatenating when it can and fragments are rare; however, when extended console support is enabled, the in-kernel concatenation is disabled and /dev/kmsg output will contain more fragments. If the log consumer performs concatenation, the end result should be the same. In the future, the in-kernel concatenation may be removed entirely and /dev/kmsg users are recommended to implement fragment handling.

Users: dmesg(1), userspace kernel log consumers

Symbols under /dev/rtcX

/dev/rtcX

Defined on file rtc-cdev

The ioctl interface to drivers for real-time clocks (RTCs). Following actions are supported:

  • RTC_RD_TIME, RTC_SET_TIME: Read or set the RTC time. Time format is a Gregorian calendar date and 24 hour wall clock time.

  • RTC_AIE_ON, RTC_AIE_OFF: Enable or disable the alarm interrupt for RTCs that support alarms

  • RTC_ALM_READ, RTC_ALM_SET: Read or set the alarm time for RTCs that support alarms. Can be set upto 24 hours in the future. Requires a separate RTC_AIE_ON call to enable the alarm interrupt. (Prefer to use RTC_WKALM_*)

  • RTC_WKALM_RD, RTC_WKALM_SET: For RTCs that support a more powerful interface, which can issue alarms beyond 24 hours and enable IRQs in the same request.

  • RTC_PIE_ON, RTC_PIE_OFF: Enable or disable the periodic interrupt for RTCs that support periodic interrupts.

  • RTC_UIE_ON, RTC_UIE_OFF: Enable or disable the update interrupt for RTCs that support it.

  • RTC_IRQP_READ, RTC_IRQP_SET: Read or set the frequency for periodic interrupts for RTCs that support periodic interrupts. Requires a separate RTC_PIE_ON call to enable the periodic interrupts.

  • RTC_VL_READ: Read the voltage inputs status of the RTC when supported. The value is a bit field of RTC_VL_*, giving the status of the main and backup voltages.

  • RTC_VL_CLEAR: Clear the voltage status of the RTC. Some RTCs need user interaction when the backup power provider is replaced or charged to be able to clear the status.

The ioctl() calls supported by the older /dev/rtc interface are also supported by the newer RTC class framework. However, because the chips and systems are not standardized, some PC/AT functionality might not be provided. And in the same way, some newer features -- including those enabled by ACPI -- are exposed by the RTC class framework, but can’t be supported by the older driver.

Symbols under /dev/wmi

/dev/wmi/dell-smbios

Defined on file dell-smbios-wmi

Perform SMBIOS calls on supported Dell machines. through the Dell ACPI-WMI interface.

IOCTL’s and buffer formats are defined in: <uapi/linux/wmi.h>

  1. To perform an SMBIOS call from userspace, you’ll need to first determine the minimum size of the calling interface buffer for your machine. Platforms that contain larger buffers can return larger objects from the system firmware. Commonly this size is either 4k or 32k.

    To determine the size of the buffer read() a u64 dword from the WMI character device /dev/wmi/dell-smbios.

  2. After you’ve determined the minimum size of the calling interface buffer, you can allocate a structure that represents the structure documented above.

  3. In the ‘length’ object store the size of the buffer you determined above and allocated.

  4. In this buffer object, prepare as necessary for the SMBIOS call you’re interested in. Typically SMBIOS buffers have “class”, “select”, and “input” defined to values that coincide with the data you are interested in. Documenting class/select/input values is outside of the scope of this documentation. Check with the libsmbios project for further documentation on these values.

  1. Run the call by using ioctl() as described in the header.

  2. The output will be returned in the buffer object.

  3. Be sure to free up your allocated object.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Specifies the hysteresis of threshold that the device is comparing against for the events enabled by <type>Y[_name]_thresh[_(rising|falling)]_hysteresis. If separate attributes exist for the two directions, but direction is not specified for this attribute, then a single hysteresis value applies to both directions.

For falling events the hysteresis is added to the _value attribute for this event to get the upper threshold for when the event goes back to normal, for rising events the hysteresis is subtracted from the _value attribute. E.g. if in_voltage0_raw_thresh_rising_value is set to 1200 and in_voltage0_raw_thresh_rising_hysteresis is set to 50. The event will get activated once in_voltage0_raw goes above 1200 and will become deactivated again once the value falls below 1150.

/sys/.../events/in_capacitanceY_adaptive_thresh_falling_en

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Adaptive thresholds are similar to normal fixed thresholds but the value is expressed as an offset from a value which provides a low frequency approximation of the channel itself. Thus these detect if a rapid change occurs in the specified direction which crosses tracking value + offset. Tracking value calculation is devices specific.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Description of the scan element data storage within the buffer and hence the form in which it is read from user-space. Form is [be|le]:[s|u]bits/storagebits[>>shift]. be or le specifies big or little endian. s or u specifies if signed (2’s complement) or unsigned. bits is the number of bits of data and storagebits is the space (after padding) that it occupies in the buffer. shift if specified, is the shift that needs to be applied prior to masking out unused bits. Some devices put their data in the middle of the transferred elements with additional information on both sides. Note that some devices will have additional information in the unused bits so to get a clean value, the bits value must be used to mask the buffer output value appropriately. The storagebits value also specifies the data alignment. So s48/64>>2 will be a signed 48 bit integer stored in a 64 bit location aligned to a 64 bit boundary. To obtain the clean value, shift right 2 and apply a mask to zero the top 16 bits of the result. For other storage combinations this attribute will be extended appropriately.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Event generated when channel passes a threshold on the rate of change (1st differential) in the specified (_rising|_falling) direction. If the direction is not specified, then either the device will report an event which ever direction a single threshold value is passed in (e.g. <type>[Y][_name]_<raw|input>_roc_value) or <type>[Y][_name]_<raw|input>_roc_rising_value and <type>[Y][_name]_<raw|input>_roc_falling_value may take different values, but the device can only enable both rate of change thresholds or neither.

Note the driver will assume the last p events requested are to be enabled where p is however many it supports (which may vary depending on the exact set requested. So if you want to be sure you have set what you think you have, check the contents of these attributes after everything is configured. Drivers may have to buffer any parameters so that they are consistent when a given event type is enabled a future point (and not those for whatever event was previously enabled).

/sys/.../iio:deviceX/in_capacitableY_calibscale_calibration

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-cdc-ad7746

Write 1 to trigger a calibration of the calibbias or calibscale. For calibscale, a full scale capacitance should be connected to the capacitance input and a calibscale_calibration then started. For calibbias see the device datasheet section on “capacitive system offset calibration”.

/sys/.../iio:deviceX/in_capacitanceY-capacitanceZ_raw

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Raw differential capacitance measurement equivalent to channel Y - channel Z where these channel numbers apply to the physically equivalent inputs when non differential readings are separately available. In differential only parts, then all that is required is a consistent labeling. Units after application of scale and offset are nanofarads.

/sys/.../iio:deviceX/in_capacitanceY-capacitanceZ_zeropoint

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

For differential channels, this an offset that is applied equally to both inputs. As the reading is of the difference between the two inputs, this should not be applied to the _raw reading by userspace (unlike _offset) and unlike calibbias it does not affect the differential value measured because the effect of _zeropoint cancels out across the two inputs that make up the differential pair. It’s purpose is to bring the individual signals, before the differential is measured, within the measurement range of the device. The naming is chosen because if the separate inputs that make the differential pair are drawn on a graph in their _raw units, this is the value that the zero point on the measurement axis represents. It is expressed with the same scaling as _raw.

/sys/.../in_capacitanceY_adaptive_thresh_rising_timeout

/sys/.../in_capacitanceY_adaptive_thresh_falling_timeout

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

When adaptive thresholds are used, the tracking signal may adjust too slowly to step changes in the raw signal. Thus these specify the time in seconds for which the difference between the slow tracking signal and the raw signal is allowed to remain out-of-range before a reset event occurs in which the tracking signal is made equal to the raw signal, allowing slow tracking to resume and the adaptive threshold event detection to function as expected.

/sys/.../uevent

Defined on file sysfs-uevent

Enable passing additional variables for synthetic uevents that are generated by writing /sys/.../uevent file.

Recognized extended format is:

ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...]

The ACTION is compulsory - it is the name of the uevent action (add, change, remove). There is no change compared to previous functionality here. The rest of the extended format is optional.

You need to pass UUID first before any KEY=VALUE pairs. The UUID must be in xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx format where ‘x’ is a hex digit. The UUID is considered to be a transaction identifier so it’s possible to use the same UUID value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case we logically group these uevents together for any userspace listeners. The UUID value appears in uevent as SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx environment variable.

If UUID is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains SYNTH_UUID=0 environment variable automatically.

The KEY=VALUE pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only.

It’s possible to define zero or more pairs - each pair is then delimited by a space character ‘ ‘. Each pair appears in synthetic uevent as SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE. That means the KEY name gains SYNTH_ARG_ prefix to avoid possible collisions with existing variables.

Example of valid sequence written to the uevent file:

add fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed A=1 B=abc

This generates synthetic uevent including these variables:

ACTION=add
SYNTH_ARG_A=1
SYNTH_ARG_B=abc
SYNTH_UUID=fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed

Users:

/sys/block/*/device/cdl_enable

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RW) For a device supporting the command duration limits feature, write to the file to turn on or off the feature. By default this feature is turned off. Writing “1” to this file enables the use of command duration limits for read and write commands in the kernel and turns on the feature on the device. Writing “0” disables the feature.

/sys/block/*/device/cdl_supported

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RO) Indicates if the device supports the command duration limits feature found in some ATA and SCSI devices.

/sys/block/*/device/ncq_prio_enable

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RW) Write to the file to turn on or off the SATA NCQ (native command queueing) priority support. By default this feature is turned off. If the device does not support the SATA NCQ priority feature, writing “1” to this file results in an error (see ncq_prio_supported).

/sys/block/*/device/ncq_prio_supported

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RO) Indicates if the device supports the SATA NCQ (native command queueing) priority feature.

/sys/block/*/device/sas_ncq_prio_enable

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RW) This is the equivalent of the ncq_prio_enable attribute file for SATA devices connected to a SAS host-bus-adapter (HBA) implementing support for the SATA NCQ priority feature. This file does not exist if the HBA driver does not implement support for the SATA NCQ priority feature, regardless of the device support for this feature (see sas_ncq_prio_supported).

/sys/block/*/device/sas_ncq_prio_supported

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RO) This is the equivalent of the ncq_prio_supported attribute file for SATA devices connected to a SAS host-bus-adapter (HBA) implementing support for the SATA NCQ priority feature. This file does not exist if the HBA driver does not implement support for the SATA NCQ priority feature, regardless of the device support for this feature.

/sys/block/*/device/sw_activity

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RW) Used by drivers which support software controlled activity LEDs.

It has the following valid values:

0

OFF - the LED is not activated on activity

1

BLINK_ON - the LED blinks on every 10ms when activity is detected.

2

BLINK_OFF - the LED is on when idle, and blinks off every 10ms when activity is detected.

Note that the user must turn sw_activity OFF it they wish to control the activity LED via the em_message file.

/sys/block/*/device/unload_heads

Defined on file sysfs-block-device

(RW) Hard disk shock protection

Writing an integer value to this file will take the heads of the respective drive off the platter and block all I/O operations for the specified number of milliseconds.

  • If the device does not support the unload heads feature, access is denied with -EOPNOTSUPP.

  • The maximal value accepted for a timeout is 30000 milliseconds.

  • A previously set timeout can be cancelled and disk can resume normal operation immediately by specifying a timeout of 0.

  • Some hard drives only comply with an earlier version of the ATA standard, but support the unload feature nonetheless. There is no safe way Linux can detect these devices, so this is not enabled by default. If it is known that your device does support the unload feature, then you can tell the kernel to enable it by writing -1. It can be disabled again by writing -2.

  • Values below -2 are rejected with -EINVAL

For more information, see Hard disk shock protection

/sys/block/<device>/iosched/target_latency

Defined on file sysfs-block-bcache

For a cache, sum of all btree writes in human readable units.

/sys/block/<disk>/bcache/bucket_size

/sys/block/<disk>/bcache/synchronous

Defined on file sysfs-block-bcache

For a cache, a boolean that allows synchronous mode to be switched on and off. In synchronous mode all writes are ordered such that the cache can reliably recover from unclean shutdown; if disabled bcache will not generally wait for writes to complete but if the cache is not shut down cleanly all data will be discarded from the cache. Should not be turned off with writeback caching enabled.

/sys/block/<disk>/bcache/tree_depth

Defined on file sysfs-block-bcache

For a cache, height of the btree excluding leaf nodes (i.e. a one node tree will have a depth of 0).

/sys/block/<disk>/bcache/unregister

Defined on file sysfs-block-bcache

A write to this file causes the backing device or cache to be unregistered. If a backing device had dirty data in the cache, writeback mode is automatically disabled and all dirty data is flushed before the device is unregistered. Caches unregister all associated backing devices before unregistering themselves.

/sys/block/<disk>/bcache/writeback

Defined on file sysfs-block-bcache

For backing devices: When on, writeback caching is enabled and writes will be buffered in the cache. When off, caching is in writethrough mode; reads and writes will be added to the cache but no write buffering will take place.

/sys/bus/amba/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-amba

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified which will override standard OF, ACPI, ID table, and name matching. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo vfio-amba > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-counter

Count value ceiling for Count Y. This is the upper limit for the respective counter.

/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY/count

Defined on file sysfs-bus-counter

Count data of Count Y represented as a string.

/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY/count_mode

Defined on file sysfs-bus-counter

Count mode for channel Y. The ceiling and floor values for Count Y are used by the count mode where required. The following count modes are available:

normal:

Counting is continuous in either direction.

range limit:

An upper or lower limit is set, mimicking limit switches in the mechanical counterpart. The upper limit is set to the Count Y ceiling value, while the lower limit is set to the Count Y floor value. The counter freezes at count = ceiling when counting up, and at count = floor when counting down. At either of these limits, the counting is resumed only when the count direction is reversed.

non-recycle:

The counter is disabled whenever a counter overflow or underflow takes place. The counter is re-enabled when a new count value is loaded to the counter via a preset operation or direct write.

modulo-n:

A count value boundary is set between the Count Y floor value and the Count Y ceiling value. The counter is reset to the Count Y floor value at count = ceiling when counting up, while the counter is set to the Count Y ceiling value at count = floor when counting down; the counter does not freeze at the boundary points, but counts continuously throughout.

interrupt on terminal count:

The output signal is initially low, and will remain low until the counter reaches zero. The output signal then goes high and remains high until a new preset value is set.

hardware retriggerable one-shot:

The output signal is initially high. The output signal will go low by a trigger input signal, and will remain low until the counter reaches zero. The output will then go high and remain high until the next trigger. A trigger results in loading the counter to the preset value and setting the output signal low, thus starting the one-shot pulse.

rate generator:

The output signal is initially high. When the counter has decremented to 1, the output signal goes low for one clock pulse. The output signal then goes high again, the counter is reloaded to the preset value, and the process repeats in a periodic manner as such.

square wave mode:

The output signal is initially high.

If the initial count is even, the counter is decremented by two on succeeding clock pulses. When the count expires, the output signal changes value and the counter is reloaded to the preset value. The process repeats in periodic manner as such.

If the initial count is odd, the initial count minus one (an even number) is loaded and then is decremented by two on succeeding clock pulses. One clock pulse after the count expires, the output signal goes low and the counter is reloaded to the preset value minus one. Succeeding clock pulses decrement the count by two. When the count expires, the output goes high again and the counter is reloaded to the preset value minus one. The process repeats in a periodic manner as such.

software triggered strobe:

The output signal is initially high. When the count expires, the output will go low for one clock pulse and then go high again. The counting sequence is “triggered” by setting the preset value.

hardware triggered strobe:

The output signal is initially high. Counting is started by a trigger input signal. When the count expires, the output signal will go low for one clock pulse and then go high again. A trigger results in loading the counter to the preset value.

Any state transition.

/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY/spike_filter_ns

Defined on file sysfs-bus-counter

/sys/bus/css/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-css

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo vfio-ccw > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

Note that unlike the mechanism of the same name for pci, this file does not allow to override basic matching rules. I.e., the driver must still match the subchannel type of the device.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) CXL decoder objects are enumerated from either a platform firmware description, or a CXL HDM decoder register set in a PCIe device (see CXL 2.0 section 8.2.5.12 CXL HDM Decoder Capability Structure). The ‘X’ in decoderX.Y represents the cxl_port container of this decoder, and ‘Y’ represents the instance id of a given decoder resource.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/cap_{pmem,ram,type2,type3}

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) When a CXL decoder is of devtype “cxl_decoder_root”, it represents a fixed memory window identified by platform firmware. A fixed window may only support a subset of memory types. The ‘cap_*’ attributes indicate whether persistent memory, volatile memory, accelerator memory, and / or expander memory may be mapped behind this decoder’s memory window.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/create_{pmem,ram}_region

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) Write a string in the form ‘regionZ’ to start the process of defining a new persistent, or volatile memory region (interleave-set) within the decode range bounded by root decoder ‘decoderX.Y’. The value written must match the current value returned from reading this attribute. An atomic compare exchange operation is done on write to assign the requested id to a region and allocate the region-id for the next creation attempt. EBUSY is returned if the region name written does not match the current cached value.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/delete_region

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(WO) Write a string in the form ‘regionZ’ to delete that region, provided it is currently idle / not bound to a driver.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/dpa_resource

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) When a CXL decoder is of devtype “cxl_decoder_endpoint”, and its ‘dpa_size’ attribute is non-zero, this attribute indicates the device physical address (DPA) base address of the allocation.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/dpa_size

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) When a CXL decoder is of devtype “cxl_decoder_endpoint” it translates from a host physical address range, to a device local address range. The range, base address plus length in bytes, of DPA allocated to this decoder is conveyed in these 2 attributes. Allocations can be mutated as long as the decoder is in the disabled state. A write to ‘dpa_size’ releases the previous DPA allocation and then attempts to allocate from the free capacity in the device partition referred to by ‘decoderX.Y/mode’. Allocate and free requests can only be performed on the highest instance number disabled decoder with non-zero size. I.e. allocations are enforced to occur in increasing ‘decoderX.Y/id’ order and frees are enforced to occur in decreasing ‘decoderX.Y/id’ order.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/interleave_granularity

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) The number of consecutive bytes of host physical address space this decoder claims at address N before the decode rotates to the next target in the interleave at address N + interleave_granularity (assuming N is aligned to interleave_granularity).

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/interleave_ways

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) The number of targets across which this decoder’s host physical address (HPA) memory range is interleaved. The device maps every Nth block of HPA (of size == ‘interleave_granularity’) to consecutive DPA addresses. The decoder’s position in the interleave is determined by the device’s (endpoint or switch) switch ancestry. For root decoders their interleave is specified by platform firmware and they only specify a downstream target order for host bridges.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/locked

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) CXL HDM decoders have the capability to lock the configuration until the next device reset. For decoders of devtype “cxl_decoder_root” there is no standard facility to unlock them. For decoders of devtype “cxl_decoder_switch” a secondary bus reset, of the PCIe bridge that provides the bus for this decoders uport, unlocks / resets the decoder.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/mode

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) When a CXL decoder is of devtype “cxl_decoder_endpoint” it translates from a host physical address range, to a device local address range. Device-local address ranges are further split into a ‘ram’ (volatile memory) range and ‘pmem’ (persistent memory) range. The ‘mode’ attribute emits one of ‘ram’, ‘pmem’, ‘mixed’, or ‘none’. The ‘mixed’ indication is for error cases when a decoder straddles the volatile/persistent partition boundary, and ‘none’ indicates the decoder is not actively decoding, or no DPA allocation policy has been set.

‘mode’ can be written, when the decoder is in the ‘disabled’ state, with either ‘ram’ or ‘pmem’ to set the boundaries for the next allocation.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/qos_class

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) For CXL host platforms that support “QoS Telemmetry” this root-decoder-only attribute conveys a platform specific cookie that identifies a QoS performance class for the CXL Window. This class-id can be compared against a similar “qos_class” published for each memory-type that an endpoint supports. While it is not required that endpoints map their local memory-class to a matching platform class, mismatches are not recommended and there are platform specific side-effects that may result.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/target_list

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) Display a comma separated list of the current decoder target configuration. The list is ordered by the current configured interleave order of the decoder’s dport instances. Each entry in the list is a dport id.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) When a CXL decoder is of devtype “cxl_decoder_switch”, it can optionally decode either accelerator memory (type-2) or expander memory (type-3). The ‘target_type’ attribute indicates the current setting which may dynamically change based on what memory regions are activated in this decode hierarchy.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/{start,size}

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) The ‘start’ and ‘size’ attributes together convey the physical address base and number of bytes mapped in the decoder’s decode window. For decoders of devtype “cxl_decoder_root” the address range is fixed. For decoders of devtype “cxl_decoder_switch” the address is bounded by the decode range of the cxl_port ancestor of the decoder’s cxl_port, and dynamically updates based on the active memory regions in that address space.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/endpointX/CDAT

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) If this sysfs entry is not present no DOE mailbox was found to support CDAT data. If it is present and the length of the data is 0 reading the CDAT data failed. Otherwise the CDAT data is reported.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) For CXL host platforms that support “QoS Telemmetry” this attribute conveys a comma delimited list of platform specific cookies that identifies a QoS performance class for the persistent partition of the CXL mem device. These class-ids can be compared against a similar “qos_class” published for a root decoder. While it is not required that the endpoints map their local memory-class to a matching platform class, mismatches are not recommended and there are platform specific performance related side-effects that may result. First class-id is displayed.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/pmem/size

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) For CXL host platforms that support “QoS Telemmetry” this attribute conveys a comma delimited list of platform specific cookies that identifies a QoS performance class for the volatile partition of the CXL mem device. These class-ids can be compared against a similar “qos_class” published for a root decoder. While it is not required that the endpoints map their local memory-class to a matching platform class, mismatches are not recommended and there are platform specific performance related side-effects that may result. First class-id is displayed.

(RO) “Volatile Only Capacity” as bytes. Represents the identically named field in the Identify Memory Device Output Payload in the CXL-2.0 specification.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/security/sanitize

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(WO) Write a boolean ‘true’ string value to this attribute to sanitize the device to securely re-purpose or decommission it. This is done by ensuring that all user data and meta-data, whether it resides in persistent capacity, volatile capacity, or the LSA, is made permanently unavailable by whatever means is appropriate for the media type. This functionality requires the device to be disabled, that is, not actively decoding any HPA ranges. This permits avoiding explicit global CPU cache management, relying instead for it to be done when a region transitions between software programmed and hardware committed states. If this file is not present, then there is no hardware support for the operation.

What /sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/security/erase (WO) Write a boolean ‘true’ string value to this attribute to secure erase user data by changing the media encryption keys for all user data areas of the device. This functionality requires the device to be disabled, that is, not actively decoding any HPA ranges. This permits avoiding explicit global CPU cache management, relying instead for it to be done when a region transitions between software programmed and hardware committed states. If this file is not present, then there is no hardware support for the operation.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/security/state

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) Reading this file will display the CXL security state for that device. Such states can be: ‘disabled’, ‘sanitize’, when a sanitization is currently underway; or those available only for persistent memory: ‘locked’, ‘unlocked’ or ‘frozen’.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/memX/trigger_poison_list

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(WO) When a boolean ‘true’ is written to this attribute the memdev driver retrieves the poison list from the device. The list consists of addresses that are poisoned, or would result in poison if accessed, and the source of the poison. This attribute is only visible for devices supporting the capability. The retrieved errors are logged as kernel events when cxl_poison event tracing is enabled.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/portX/decoders_committed

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) A memory device is considered active when any of its decoders are in the “committed” state (See CXL 3.0 8.2.4.19.7 CXL HDM Decoder n Control Register). Hotplug and destructive operations like “sanitize” are blocked while device is actively decoding a Host Physical Address range. Note that this number may be elevated without any regionX objects active or even enumerated, as this may be due to decoders established by platform firwmare or a previous kernel (kexec).

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/portX/dportY

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) CXL port objects are enumerated from either a platform firmware device (ACPI0017 and ACPI0016) or PCIe switch upstream port with CXL component registers. The ‘dportY’ symlink identifies one or more downstream ports that the upstream port may target in its decode of CXL memory resources. The ‘Y’ integer reflects the hardware port unique-id used in the hardware decoder target list.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/portX/uport

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) CXL port objects are enumerated from either a platform firmware device (ACPI0017 and ACPI0016) or PCIe switch upstream port with CXL component registers. The ‘uport’ symlink connects the CXL portX object to the device that published the CXL port capability.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/accessY/read_bandwidth

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) The aggregated read or write bandwidth of the region. The number is the accumulated read or write bandwidth of all CXL memory devices that contributes to the region in MB/s. It is identical data that should appear in /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/accessY/initiators/read_bandwidth or /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/accessY/initiators/write_bandwidth. See stable/sysfs-devices-node. access0 provides the number to the closest initiator and access1 provides the number to the closest CPU.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/accessY/read_latency

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) The read or write latency of the region. The number is the worst read or write latency of all CXL memory devices that contributes to the region in nanoseconds. It is identical data that should appear in /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/accessY/initiators/read_latency or /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/accessY/initiators/write_latency.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/commit

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) Write a boolean ‘true’ string value to this attribute to trigger the region to transition from the software programmed state to the actively decoding in hardware state. The commit operation in addition to validating that the region is in proper configured state, validates that the decoders are being committed in spec mandated order (last committed decoder id + 1), and checks that the hardware accepts the commit request. Reading this value indicates whether the region is committed or not.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/interleave_granularity

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) Set the number of consecutive bytes each device in the interleave set will claim. The possible interleave granularity values are determined by the CXL spec and the participating devices.

(RO) The mode of a region is established at region creation time and dictates the mode of the endpoint decoder that comprise the region. For more details on the possible modes see /sys/bus/cxl/devices/decoderX.Y/mode

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/resource

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) A region is a contiguous partition of a CXL root decoder address space. Region capacity is allocated by writing to the size attribute, the resulting physical address space determined by the driver is reflected here. It is therefore not useful to read this before writing a value to the size attribute.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/size

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) System physical address space to be consumed by the region. When written trigger the driver to allocate space out of the parent root decoder’s address space. When read the size of the address space is reported and should match the span of the region’s resource attribute. Size shall be set after the interleave configuration parameters. Once set it cannot be changed, only freed by writing 0. The kernel makes no guarantees that data is maintained over an address space freeing event, and there is no guarantee that a free followed by an allocate results in the same address being allocated.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/target[0..N]

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) Write an endpoint decoder object name to ‘targetX’ where X is the intended position of the endpoint device in the region interleave and N is the ‘interleave_ways’ setting for the region. ENXIO is returned if the write results in an impossible to map decode scenario, like the endpoint is unreachable at that position relative to the root decoder interleave. EBUSY is returned if the position in the region is already occupied, or if the region is not in a state to accept interleave configuration changes. EINVAL is returned if the object name is not an endpoint decoder. Once all positions have been successfully written a final validation for decode conflicts is performed before activating the region.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/regionZ/uuid

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RW) Write a unique identifier for the region. This field must be set for persistent regions and it must not conflict with the UUID of another region. For volatile ram regions this attribute is a read-only empty string.

/sys/bus/cxl/devices/{port,endpoint}X/parent_dport

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(RO) CXL port objects are instantiated for each upstream port in a CXL/PCIe switch, and for each endpoint to map the corresponding memory device into the CXL port hierarchy. When a descendant CXL port (switch or endpoint) is enumerated it is useful to know which ‘dport’ object in the parent CXL port routes to this descendant. The ‘parent_dport’ symlink points to the device representing the downstream port of a CXL switch that routes to {port,endpoint}X.

/sys/bus/cxl/flush

Defined on file sysfs-bus-cxl

(WO) If userspace manually unbinds a port the kernel schedules all descendant memdevs for unbind. Writing ‘1’ to this attribute flushes that work.

The ‘start’ attribute indicates the start physical address for the given range. The ‘end’ attribute indicates the end physical address for the given range. The ‘page_offset’ attribute indicates the offset of the current range in the dax device.

/sys/bus/dax/devices/daxX.Y/memmap_on_memory

Defined on file sysfs-bus-dax

(RW) Control the memmap_on_memory setting if the dax device were to be hotplugged as system memory. This determines whether the ‘altmap’ for the hotplugged memory will be placed on the device being hotplugged (memmap_on_memory=1) or if it will be placed on regular memory (memmap_on_memory=0). This attribute must be set before the device is handed over to the ‘kmem’ driver (i.e. hotplugged into system-ram). Additionally, this depends on CONFIG_MHP_MEMMAP_ON_MEMORY, and a globally enabled memmap_on_memory parameter for memory_hotplug. This is typically set on the kernel command line - memory_hotplug.memmap_on_memory set to ‘true’ or ‘force’.”

/sys/bus/dax/devices/daxX.Y/numa_node

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/caps

Defined on file sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-caps

Attribute group to describe the capabilities exposed for a particular pmu. Each attribute of this group can expose information specific to a PMU, say pmu_name, so that userspace can understand some of the feature which the platform specific PMU supports.

One of the example available capability in supported platform like Intel is pmu_name, which exposes underlying CPU name known to the PMU driver.

Example output in powerpc: grep . /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/* /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/caps/pmu_name:POWER9

The “branch_counter_nr” in the supported platform exposes the maximum number of counters which can be shown in the u64 counters of PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_COUNTERS, while the “branch_counter_width” exposes the width of each counter. Both of them can be used by the perf tool to parse the logged counters in each branch.

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/format

Defined on file sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-format

Attribute group to describe the magic bits that go into perf_event_attr::config[012] for a particular pmu. Each attribute of this group defines the ‘hardware’ bitmask we want to export, so that userspace can deal with sane name/value pairs.

Userspace must be prepared for the possibility that attributes define overlapping bit ranges. For example:

attr1 = 'config:0-23'
attr2 = 'config:0-7'
attr3 = 'config:12-35'

Example: ‘config1:1,6-10,44’ Defines contents of attribute that occupies bits 1,6-10,44 of perf_event_attr::config1.

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<pmu>/events/<event>

Defined on file sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-events

Per-pmu performance monitoring events specific to the running system

Each file (except for some of those with a ‘.’ in them, ‘.unit’ and ‘.scale’) in the ‘events’ directory describes a single performance monitoring event supported by the <pmu>. The name of the file is the name of the event.

File contents:

<term>[=<value>][,<term>[=<value>]]...

Where <term> is one of the terms listed under /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<pmu>/format/ and <value> is a number is base-16 format with a ‘0x’ prefix (lowercase only). If a <term> is specified alone (without an assigned value), it is implied that 0x1 is assigned to that <term>.

Examples (each of these lines would be in a separate file):

event=0x2abc event=0x423,inv,cmask=0x3 domain=0x1,offset=0x8,starting_index=0xffff domain=0x1,offset=0x8,core=?

Each of the assignments indicates a value to be assigned to a particular set of bits (as defined by the format file corresponding to the <term>) in the perf_event structure passed to the perf_open syscall.

In the case of the last example, a value replacing “?” would need to be provided by the user selecting the particular event. This is referred to as “event parameterization”. Event parameters have the format ‘param=?’.

/sys/bus/event_source/devices/<pmu>/events/<event>.scale

Defined on file sysfs-bus-event_source-devices-events

Perf event scaling factors

A string representing a floating point value expressed in scientific notation to be multiplied by the event count received from the kernel to match the unit specified in the <event>.unit file.

Example:

/sys/bus/fcoe/devices/ctlr_X

Defined on file sysfs-bus-fcoe

‘FCoE Controller’ instances on the fcoe bus. The FCoE Controller now has a three stage creation process. 1) Write interface name to ctlr_create 2) Configure the FCoE Controller (ctlr_X) 3) Enable the FCoE Controller to begin discovery and login. The FCoE Controller is destroyed by writing its name, i.e. ctlr_X to the ctlr_delete file.

Attributes:

fcf_dev_loss_tmo:

Device loss timeout period (see below). Changing this value will change the dev_loss_tmo for all FCFs discovered by this controller.

mode:

Display or change the FCoE Controller’s mode. Possible modes are ‘Fabric’ and ‘VN2VN’. If a FCoE Controller is started in ‘Fabric’ mode then FIP FCF discovery is initiated and ultimately a fabric login is attempted. If a FCoE Controller is started in ‘VN2VN’ mode then FIP VN2VN discovery and login is performed. A FCoE Controller only supports one mode at a time.

/sys/bus/fcoe/devices/fcf_X

Defined on file sysfs-bus-fcoe

‘FCoE FCF’ instances on the fcoe bus. A FCF is a Fibre Channel Forwarder, which is a FCoE switch that can accept FCoE (Ethernet) packets, unpack them, and forward the embedded Fibre Channel frames into a FC fabric. It can also take outbound FC frames and pack them in Ethernet packets to be sent to their destination on the Ethernet segment.

Attributes:

fabric_name:

Identifies the fabric that the FCF services.

switch_name:

Identifies the FCF.

priority:

The switch’s priority amongst other FCFs on the same fabric.

selected:

1 indicates that the switch has been selected for use; 0 indicates that the switch will not be used.

fc_map:

The Fibre Channel MAP

vfid:

The Virtual Fabric ID

mac:

The FCF’s MAC address

fka_period:

The FIP Keep-Alive period

fabric_state: The internal kernel state

  • “Unknown” - Initialization value

  • “Disconnected” - No link to the FCF/fabric

  • “Connected” - Host is connected to the FCF

  • “Deleted” - FCF is being removed from the system

dev_loss_tmo: The device loss timeout period for this FCF.

Notes: A device loss infrastructure similar to the FC Transport’s

is present in fcoe_sysfs. It is nice to have so that a link flapping adapter doesn’t continually advance the count used to identify the discovered FCF. FCFs will exist in a “Disconnected” state until either the timer expires and the FCF becomes “Deleted” or the FCF is rediscovered and becomes “Connected.”

Users: The first user of this interface will be the fcoeadm application, which is commonly packaged in the fcoe-utils package.

/sys/bus/hid/devices/<bus>:<vid>:<pid>.<n>/wacom_led/button<n>_rawimg

Defined on file sysfs-driver-wacom

When writing a 1024 byte raw image in Wacom Intuos 4 interleaving format to the file, the image shows up on Button N of the device. The image is a 64x32 pixel 4-bit gray image. The 1024 byte binary is split up into 16x 64 byte chunks. Each 64 byte chunk encodes the image data for two consecutive lines on the display. The low nibble of each byte contains the first line, and the high nibble contains the second line. When the Wacom Intuos 4 is connected over Bluetooth, the image has to contain 256 bytes (64x32 px 1 bit colour). The format is also scrambled, like in the USB mode, and it can be summarized by converting:

disconnect on idle, i.e. deselect the last used channel, which is useful when there is a device with an address that conflicts with another device on another mux on the same parent bus.

-1

leave the mux as-is, which is the most optimal setting in terms of I2C operations and is the default mode.

0..<nchans>

set the mux to a predetermined channel, which is useful if there is one channel that is used almost always, and you want to reduce the latency for normal operations after rare transactions on other channels

/sys/bus/i2c/devices/.../bd9571mwv-regulator.*.auto/backup_mode

Defined on file sysfs-driver-bd9571mwv-regulator

Read/write the current state of DDR Backup Mode, which controls if DDR power rails will be kept powered during system suspend. (“on”/”1” = enabled, “off”/”0” = disabled). Two types of power switches (or control signals) can be used:

  1. With a momentary power switch (or pulse signal), DDR Backup Mode is enabled by default when available, as the PMIC will be configured only during system suspend.

  2. With a toggle power switch (or level signal), the following steps must be followed exactly:

    1. Configure PMIC for backup mode, to change the role of the accessory power switch from a power switch to a wake-up switch,

    2. Switch accessory power switch off, to prepare for system suspend, which is a manual step not controlled by software,

    3. Suspend system,

    4. Switch accessory power switch on, to resume the system.

    DDR Backup Mode must be explicitly enabled by the user, to invoke step 1.

Causes a recalculation and adjustment to the proximity_thresh_rising_value.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device*/buffer/hwfifo_timeout

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A read/write property to provide capability to delay reporting of samples till a timeout is reached. This allows host processors to sleep, while the sensor is storing samples in its internal fifo. The maximum timeout in seconds can be specified by setting hwfifo_timeout.The current delay can be read by reading hwfifo_timeout. A value of 0 means that there is no timeout.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Hardware chip or device accessed by one communication port. Corresponds to a grouping of sensor channels. X is the IIO index of the device.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/ac_excitation_en

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-adc-ad7192

This attribute, if available, is used to enable the AC excitation mode found on some converters. In ac excitation mode, the polarity of the excitation voltage is reversed on alternate cycles, to eliminate DC errors.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/auto_zeroing_mux_enable

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-adc-mcp3564

This attribute is used to enable the analog input multiplexer auto-zeroing algorithm (the input multiplexer and the ADC include an offset cancellation algorithm that cancels the offset contribution of the ADC). When the offset cancellation algorithm is enabled, ADC takes two conversions, one with the differential input as VIN+/VIN-, one with VIN+/VIN- inverted. In this case the conversion time is multiplied by two compared to the default case where the algorithm is disabled. This technique allows the cancellation of the ADC offset error and the achievement of ultra-low offset without any digital calibration. The resulting offset is the residue of the difference between the two conversions, which is on the order of magnitude of the noise floor. This offset is effectively canceled at every conversion, so the residual offset error temperature drift is extremely low. Write ‘1’ to enable it, write ‘0’ to disable it.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/auto_zeroing_ref_enable

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-adc-mcp3564

This attribute is used to enable the chopping algorithm for the internal voltage reference buffer. This setting has no effect when external voltage reference is selected. Internal voltage reference buffer injects a certain quantity of 1/f noise into the system that can be modulated with the incoming input signals and can limit the SNR performance at higher Oversampling Ratio values (over 256). To overcome this limitation, the buffer includes an auto-zeroing algorithm that greatly reduces (cancels out) the 1/f noise and cancels the offset value of the reference buffer. As a result, the SNR of the system is not affected by this 1/f noise component of the reference buffer, even at maximum oversampling ratio values. Write ‘1’ to enable it, write ‘0’ to disable it.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/battery_low

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-meas-spec

Reading returns either ‘1’ or ‘0’. ‘1’ means that the battery level supplied to sensor is below 2.25V. This ABI is available for tsys02d, htu21, ms8607

Reading returns a list with the possible gain values for the current biasing circuit of the Delta-Sigma modulator.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bridge_switch_en

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-adc-ad7192

This attribute, if available, is used to close or open the bridge power down switch found on some converters. In bridge applications, such as strain gauges and load cells, the bridge itself consumes the majority of the current in the system. To minimize the current consumption of the system, the bridge can be disconnected (when it is not being used using the bridge_switch_en attribute.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Directory of attributes relating to the buffer for the device.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/hwfifo_enabled

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A read-only boolean value that indicates if the hardware fifo is currently enabled or disabled. If the device does not have a hardware fifo this entry is not present. The hardware fifo is enabled when the buffer is enabled if the current hardware fifo watermark level is set and other current device settings allows it (e.g. if a trigger is set that samples data differently that the hardware fifo does then hardware fifo will not enabled).

If the hardware fifo is enabled and the level of the hardware fifo reaches the hardware fifo watermark level the device will flush its hardware fifo to the device buffer. Doing a non blocking read on the device when no samples are present in the device buffer will also force a flush.

When the hardware fifo is enabled there is no need to use a trigger to use buffer mode since the watermark settings guarantees that the hardware fifo is flushed to the device buffer.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/hwfifo_watermark

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Read-only entry that contains a single integer specifying the current watermark level for the hardware fifo. If the device does not have a hardware fifo this entry is not present. The watermark level for the hardware fifo is set by the driver based on the value set by the user in buffer/watermark but taking into account hardware limitations (e.g. most hardware buffers are limited to 32-64 samples, some hardware buffers watermarks are fixed or have minimum levels). A value of 0 means that the hardware watermark is unset.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/hwfifo_watermark_available

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A list of positive integers specifying the available watermark levels for the hardware fifo. This entry is optional and if it is not present it means that all the values between hwfifo_watermark_min and hwfifo_watermark_max are supported.

If the user sets buffer/watermark to a value greater than hwfifo_watermak_min but not equal to any of the values in this list, the driver will chose an appropriate value for the hardware fifo watermark level.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/hwfifo_watermark_max

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A single positive integer specifying the maximum watermark level for the hardware fifo of this device. If the device does not have a hardware fifo this entry is not present.

If the user sets buffer/watermark to a value greater than this one, then the hardware watermark will be capped at this value.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/hwfifo_watermark_min

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A single positive integer specifying the minimum watermark level for the hardware fifo of this device. If the device does not have a hardware fifo this entry is not present.

If the user sets buffer/watermark to a value less than this one, then the hardware watermark will remain unset.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/length_align_bytes

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-dma-buffer

DMA buffers tend to have a alignment requirement for the buffers. If this alignment requirement is not met samples might be dropped from the buffer.

This property reports the alignment requirements in bytes. This means that the buffer size in bytes needs to be a integer multiple of the number reported by this file.

The alignment requirements in number of sample sets will depend on the enabled channels and the bytes per channel. This means that the alignment requirement in samples sets might change depending on which and how many channels are enabled. Whereas the alignment requirement reported in bytes by this property will remain static and does not depend on which channels are enabled.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Directory containing interfaces for elements that will be captured for a single triggered sample set in the buffer.

Since kernel 5.11 the scan_elements attributes are merged into the bufferY directory, to be configurable per buffer.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/data_available

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A read-only value indicating the bytes of data available in the buffer. In the case of an output buffer, this indicates the amount of empty space available to write data to. In the case of an input buffer, this indicates the amount of data available for reading.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/enable

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Actually start the buffer capture up. Will start trigger if first device and appropriate.

Note that it might be impossible to configure other attributes, (e.g.: events, scale, sampling rate) if they impact the currently active buffer capture session.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/length

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Number of scans contained by the buffer.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/watermark

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

A single positive integer specifying the maximum number of scan elements to wait for.

Poll will block until the watermark is reached.

Blocking read will wait until the minimum between the requested read amount or the low water mark is available.

Non-blocking read will retrieve the available samples from the buffer even if there are less samples then watermark level. This allows the application to block on poll with a timeout and read the available samples after the timeout expires and thus have a maximum delay guarantee.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/calibrate

Writing a value to this function will force such a calibration change. For the scd30 the value should be from the range [400 1 2000].

Note for the scd30 that a valid value may only be obtained once it is has been written. Until then any read back of this value should be ignored. As for the scd4x an error will be returned immediately if the manual calibration has failed.

Not present if the offset is always 0 or unknown. If Y or axis <x|y|z> is not present, then the offset applies to all in channels of <type>. May be writable if a variable offset can be applied on the device. Note that this is different to calibbias which is for devices (or drivers) that apply offsets to compensate for variation between different instances of the part, typically adjusted by using some hardware supported calibration procedure.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-ina2xx-adc

By default (value ‘0’), the capture thread checks for the Conversion Ready Flag to being set prior to committing a new value to the sample buffer. This synchronizes the in-chip conversion rate with the in-driver readout rate at the cost of an additional register read.

Writing ‘1’ will remove the polling for the Conversion Ready Flags to save the additional i2c transaction, which will improve the bandwidth available for reading data. However, samples can be occasionally skipped or repeated, depending on the beat between the capture and conversion rates.

Number of milliseconds to wait for the comparator in each step of the binary search for the input peak level. Needs to relate to the frequency of the input signal.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_altvoltageY_invert

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio-adc-envelope-detector

The DAC is used to find the peak level of an alternating voltage input signal by a binary search using the output of a comparator wired to an interrupt pin. Like so:

                      _
                     | \
input +------>-------|+ \
                     |   \
       .-------.     |    }---.
       |       |     |   /    |
       |    dac|-->--|- /     |
       |       |     |_/      |
       |       |              |
       |       |              |
       |    irq|------<-------'
       |       |
       '-------'

The boolean invert attribute (0/1) should be set when the input signal is centered around the maximum value of the dac instead of zero. The envelope detector will search from below in this case and will also invert the result.

The edge/level of the interrupt is also switched to its opposite value.

  • not connected (HZ),

  • grounded (GD),

  • connected to an antenna where it can act as a base (DS - data shield), or measured input (MI).

The sensor rotates measurement across 4 phases (PH0, PH1, PH2, PH3), where the inputs are configured and then measured.

By default, during the first phase, [PH0], CS0 is measured, while CS1 and CS2 are used as shields. cat in_proximity0_setup returns “MI,DS,DS”. [PH1], CS1 is measured, CS0 and CS2 are shield: cat in_proximity1_setup returns “DS,MI,DS”. [PH2], CS2 is measured, CS0 and CS1 are shield: cat in_proximity1_setup returns “DS,DS,MI”. [PH3], CS1 and CS2 are measured (combo mode): cat in_proximity1_setup returns “DS,MI,MI”.

Note, these are the chip default. Hardware layout will most likely dictate different output. The entry is read-only.

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/label

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Optional symbolic label for a device. This is useful for userspace to be able to better identify an individual device.

The contents of the label are free-form, but there are some standardized uses:

For proximity sensors which give the proximity (of a person) to a certain wlan or wwan antenna the following standardized labels are used:

  • “proximity-wifi”

  • “proximity-lte”

  • “proximity-wifi-lte”

  • “proximity-wifi-left”

  • “proximity-wifi-right”

These are used to indicate to userspace that these proximity sensors may be used to tune transmit power to ensure that Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits are honored. The “-left” and “-right” labels are for devices with multiple antennas.

In some laptops/tablets the standardized proximity sensor labels instead indicate proximity to a specific part of the device:

  • “proximity-palmrest” indicates proximity to the keyboard’s palmrest

  • “proximity-palmrest-left” indicates proximity to the left part of the palmrest

  • “proximity-palmrest-right” indicates proximity to the right part of the palmrest

  • “proximity-lap” indicates the device is being used on someone’s lap

Note “proximity-lap” is special in that its value may be calculated by firmware from other sensor readings, rather then being a raw sensor reading.

For accelerometers used in 2-in-1s with 360° (yoga-style) hinges, which have an accelerometer in both their base and their display, the following standardized labels are used:

  • “accel-base”

  • “accel-display”

For devices where an accelerometer is housed in the swivel camera subassembly (for AR application), the following standardized label is used:

  • “accel-camera”

/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_accel_mount_matrix

Defined on file sysfs-bus-iio

Mounting matrix for IIO sensors. This is a rotation matrix which informs userspace about sensor chip’s placement relative to the main hardware it is mounted on.

Main hardware placement is defined according to the local reference frame related to the physical quantity the sensor measures.

Given that the rotation matrix is defined in a board specific way (platform data and / or device-tree), the main hardware reference frame definition is left to the implementor’s choice (see below for a magnetometer example).

Applications should apply this rotation matrix to samples so that when main hardware reference frame is aligned onto local reference frame, then sensor chip reference frame is also perfectly aligned with it.

Matrix is a 3x3 unitary matrix and typically looks like [0, 1, 0; 1, 0, 0; 0, 0, -1]. Identity matrix [1, 0, 0; 0, 1, 0; 0, 0, 1] means sensor chip and main hardware are perfectly aligned with each other.

For example, a mounting matrix for a magnetometer sensor informs userspace about sensor chip’s ORIENTATION relative to the main hardware.

More specifically, main hardware orientation is defined with respect to the LOCAL EARTH GEOMAGNETIC REFERENCE FRAME where :

  • Y is in the ground plane and positive towards magnetic North ;

  • X is in the ground plane, perpendicular to the North axis and positive towards the East ;

  • Z is perpendicular to the ground plane and positive upwards.

An implementor might consider that for a hand-held device, a ‘natural’ orientation would be ‘front facing camera at the top’. The main hardware reference frame could then be described as :

  • Y is in the plane of the screen and is positive towards the top of the screen ;

  • X is in the plane of the screen, perpendicular to Y axis, and positive towards the right hand side of the screen ;

  • Z is perpendicular to the screen plane and positive out of the screen.

Another example for a quadrotor UAV might be :

  • Y is in the plane of the propellers and positive towards the front-view camera;

  • X is in the plane of the propellers, perpendicular to Y axis, and positive towards the starboard side of the UAV ;

  • Z is perpendicular to propellers plane and positive upwards.

out_altvoltage2_frequency:

A frequency quadrupler generates frequencies from 16000000000 Hz to 32000000000 Hz.

Note: writes to one of the channels will affect the frequency of all the other channels, since it involves changing the VCO fundamental output frequency.

/sys/bus/nd/devices/ndbusX/nfit/firmware_activate_noidle

Defined on file sysfs-bus-nfit

(RW) The Intel platform implementation of firmware activate support exposes an option let the platform force idle devices in the system over the activation event, or trust that the OS will do it. The safe default is to let the platform force idle devices since the kernel is already in a suspend state, and on the chance that a driver does not properly quiesce bus-mastering after a suspend callback the platform will handle it. However, the activation might abort if, for example, platform firmware determines that the activation time exceeds the max PCI-E completion timeout. Since the platform does not know whether the OS is running the activation from a suspend context it aborts, but if the system owner trusts driver suspend callback to be sufficient then ‘firmware_activation_noidle’ can be enabled to bypass the activation abort.

Userspace applications interested in knowing the firmware assigned instance number of the PCI device that can help in understanding the firmware intended order of the PCI device.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../d3cold_allowed

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

d3cold_allowed is bit to control whether the corresponding PCI device can be put into D3Cold state. If it is cleared, the device will never be put into D3Cold state. If it is set, the device may be put into D3Cold state if other requirements are satisfied too. Reading this attribute will show the current value of d3cold_allowed bit. Writing this attribute will set the value of d3cold_allowed bit.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This symbolic link appears when hardware supports the SR-IOV capability and the Physical Function driver has enabled it, and this device has vendor specific dependencies with others. The symbolic link points to the PCI device sysfs entry of Physical Function this device depends on.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified which will override standard static and dynamic ID matching. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo pci-stub > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../index

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Reading this attribute will provide the firmware given instance number of the PCI device. Depending on the platform this can be for example the SMBIOS type 41 device type instance or the user-defined ID (UID) on s390. The attribute will be created only if the firmware has given an instance number to the PCI device and that number is guaranteed to uniquely identify the device in the system.

Users:

Userspace applications interested in knowing the firmware assigned device type instance of the PCI device that can help in understanding the firmware intended order of the PCI device.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../irq

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

If a driver has enabled MSI (not MSI-X), “irq” contains the IRQ of the first MSI vector. Otherwise “irq” contains the IRQ of the legacy INTx interrupt.

“irq” being set to 0 indicates that the device isn’t capable of generating legacy INTx interrupts.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../label

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Reading this attribute will provide the firmware given name (SMBIOS type 41 string or ACPI _DSM string) of the PCI device. The attribute will be created only if the firmware has given a name to the PCI device. ACPI _DSM string name will be given priority if the system firmware provides SMBIOS type 41 string also.

Users:

Userspace applications interested in knowing the firmware assigned name of the PCI device.

  • iXX contains the device class programming interface.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../msi_bus

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a zero value to this attribute disallows MSI and MSI-X for any future drivers of the device. If the device is a bridge, MSI and MSI-X will be disallowed for future drivers of all child devices under the bridge. Drivers must be reloaded for the new setting to take effect.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../msi_irqs/

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

The /sys/devices/.../msi_irqs directory contains a variable set of files, with each file being named after a corresponding msi irq vector allocated to that device.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../msi_irqs/<N>

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This attribute indicates the mode that the irq vector named by the file is in (msi vs. msix)

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../numa_node

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file contains the NUMA node to which the PCI device is attached, or -1 if the node is unknown. The initial value comes from an ACPI _PXM method or a similar firmware source. If that is missing or incorrect, this file can be written to override the node. In that case, please report a firmware bug to the system vendor. Writing to this file taints the kernel with TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, which reduces the supportability of your system.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../p2pmem/allocate

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file allows mapping p2pmem into userspace. For each mmap() call on this file, the kernel will allocate a chunk of Peer-to-Peer memory for use in Peer-to-Peer transactions. This memory can be used in O_DIRECT calls to NVMe backed files for Peer-to-Peer copies.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a non-zero value to this attribute will force a rescan of the bus and all child buses, and re-discover devices removed earlier from this part of the device tree.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../physfn

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This symbolic link appears when a device is a Virtual Function. The symbolic link points to the PCI device sysfs entry of the Physical Function this device associates with.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../power_state

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file contains the current PCI power state of the device. The value comes from the PCI kernel device state and can be one of: “unknown”, “error”, “D0”, D1”, “D2”, “D3hot”, “D3cold”. The file is read only.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../remove

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a non-zero value to this attribute will hot-remove the PCI device and any of its children.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../rescan

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a non-zero value to this attribute will force a rescan of the device’s parent bus and all child buses, and re-discover devices removed earlier from this part of the device tree.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../reset

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Some devices allow an individual function to be reset without affecting other functions in the same device. For devices that have this support, a file named reset will be present in sysfs. Writing 1 to this file will perform reset.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../reset_method

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Some devices allow an individual function to be reset without affecting other functions in the same slot.

For devices that have this support, a file named reset_method is present in sysfs. Reading this file gives names of the supported and enabled reset methods and their ordering. Writing a space-separated list of names of reset methods sets the reset methods and ordering to be used when resetting the device. Writing an empty string disables the ability to reset the device. Writing “default” enables all supported reset methods in the default ordering.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../resourceN_resize

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

These files provide an interface to PCIe Resizable BAR support. A file is created for each BAR resource (N) supported by the PCIe Resizable BAR extended capability of the device. Reading each file exposes the bitmap of available resource sizes:

# cat resource1_resize 00000000000001c0

The bitmap represents supported resource sizes for the BAR, where bit0 = 1MB, bit1 = 2MB, bit2 = 4MB, etc. In the above example the device supports 64MB, 128MB, and 256MB BAR sizes.

When writing the file, the user provides the bit position of the desired resource size, for example:

# echo 7 > resource1_resize

This indicates to set the size value corresponding to bit 7, 128MB. The resulting size is 2 ^ (bit# + 20). This definition matches the PCIe specification of this capability.

In order to make use of resource resizing, all PCI drivers must be unbound from the device and peer devices under the same parent bridge may need to be soft removed. In the case of VGA devices, writing a resize value will remove low level console drivers from the device. Raw users of pci-sysfs resourceN attributes must be terminated prior to resizing. Success of the resizing operation is not guaranteed.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../revision

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file contains the revision field of the PCI device. The value comes from device config space. The file is read only.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_drivers_autoprobe

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file is associated with the PF of a device that supports SR-IOV. It determines whether newly-enabled VFs are immediately bound to a driver. It initially contains 1, which means the kernel automatically binds VFs to a compatible driver immediately after they are enabled. If an application writes 0 to the file before enabling VFs, the kernel will not bind VFs to a driver.

A typical use case is to write 0 to this file, then enable VFs, then assign the newly-created VFs to virtual machines. Note that changing this file does not affect already- enabled VFs. In this scenario, the user must first disable the VFs, write 0 to sriov_drivers_autoprobe, then re-enable the VFs.

This is similar to /sys/bus/pci/drivers_autoprobe, but affects only the VFs associated with a specific PF.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_numvfs

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file appears when a physical PCIe device supports SR-IOV. Userspace applications can read and write to this file to determine and control the enablement or disablement of Virtual Functions (VFs) on the physical function (PF). A read of this file will return the number of VFs that are enabled on this PF. A number written to this file will enable the specified number of VFs. A userspace application would typically read the file and check that the value is zero, and then write the number of VFs that should be enabled on the PF; the value written should be less than or equal to the value in the sriov_totalvfs file. A userspace application wanting to disable the VFs would write a zero to this file. The core ensures that valid values are written to this file, and returns errors when values are not valid. For example, writing a 2 to this file when sriov_numvfs is not 0 and not 2 already will return an error. Writing a 10 when the value of sriov_totalvfs is 8 will return an error.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_totalvfs

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file appears when a physical PCIe device supports SR-IOV. Userspace applications can read this file to determine the maximum number of Virtual Functions (VFs) a PCIe physical function (PF) can support. Typically, this is the value reported in the PF’s SR-IOV extended capability structure’s TotalVFs element. Drivers have the ability at probe time to reduce the value read from this file via the pci_sriov_set_totalvfs() function.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_vf_msix_count

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file is associated with a SR-IOV virtual function (VF). It allows configuration of the number of MSI-X vectors for the VF. This allows devices that have a global pool of MSI-X vectors to optimally divide them between VFs based on VF usage.

The values accepted are:
  • > 0 - this number will be reported as the Table Size in the

    VF’s MSI-X capability

  • < 0 - not valid

  • = 0 - will reset to the device default value

The file is writable if the PF is bound to a driver that implements ->sriov_set_msix_vec_count().

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../sriov_vf_total_msix

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This file is associated with a SR-IOV physical function (PF). It contains the total number of MSI-X vectors available for assignment to all virtual functions (VFs) associated with PF. The value will be zero if the device doesn’t support this functionality. For supported devices, the value will be constant and won’t be changed after MSI-X vectors assignment.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../virtfn<N>

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

This symbolic link appears when hardware supports the SR-IOV capability and the Physical Function driver has enabled it. The symbolic link points to the PCI device sysfs entry of the Virtual Function whose index is N (0...MaxVFs-1).

/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../vpd

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

A file named vpd in a device directory will be a binary file containing the Vital Product Data for the device. It should follow the VPD format defined in PCI Specification 2.1 or 2.2, but users should consider that some devices may have incorrectly formatted data. If the underlying VPD has a writable section then the corresponding section of this file will be writable.

PCIe Rootport AER statistics

These attributes show up under only the rootports (or root complex event collectors) that are AER capable. These indicate the number of error messages as “reported to” the rootport. Please note that the rootports also transmit (internally) the ERR_* messages for errors seen by the internal rootport PCI device, so these counters include them and are thus cumulative of all the error messages on the PCI hierarchy originating at that root port.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-devices-cciss

Value of 1 indicates the controller can honor the reset_devices kernel parameter. Value of 0 indicates reset_devices cannot be honored. This is to allow, for example, kexec tools to be able to warn the user if they designate an unresettable device as a dump device, as kdump requires resetting the device in order to work reliably.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/<dev>/ccissX/transport_mode

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-devices-cciss

Value of “simple” indicates that the controller has been placed in “simple mode”. Value of “performant” indicates that the controller has been placed in “performant mode”.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/.../bind

/sys/devices/pciX/.../bind

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a device location to this file will cause the driver to attempt to bind to the device found at this location. This is useful for overriding default bindings. The format for the location is: DDDD:BB:DD.F. That is Domain:Bus:Device.Function and is the same as found in /sys/bus/pci/devices/. For example:

# echo 0000:00:19.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/bind

(Note: kernels before 2.6.28 may require echo -n).

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/.../new_id

/sys/devices/pciX/.../new_id

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a device ID to this file will attempt to dynamically add a new device ID to a PCI device driver. This may allow the driver to support more hardware than was included in the driver’s static device ID support table at compile time. The format for the device ID is: VVVV DDDD SVVV SDDD CCCC MMMM PPPP. That is Vendor ID, Device ID, Subsystem Vendor ID, Subsystem Device ID, Class, Class Mask, and Private Driver Data. The Vendor ID and Device ID fields are required, the rest are optional. Upon successfully adding an ID, the driver will probe for the device and attempt to bind to it. For example:

# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/new_id

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/.../remove_id

/sys/devices/pciX/.../remove_id

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a device ID to this file will remove an ID that was dynamically added via the new_id sysfs entry. The format for the device ID is: VVVV DDDD SVVV SDDD CCCC MMMM. That is Vendor ID, Device ID, Subsystem Vendor ID, Subsystem Device ID, Class, and Class Mask. The Vendor ID and Device ID fields are required, the rest are optional. After successfully removing an ID, the driver will no longer support the device. This is useful to ensure auto probing won’t match the driver to the device. For example:

# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/remove_id

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/.../unbind

/sys/devices/pciX/.../unbind

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci

Writing a device location to this file will cause the driver to attempt to unbind from the device found at this location. This may be useful when overriding default bindings. The format for the location is: DDDD:BB:DD.F. That is Domain:Bus:Device.Function and is the same as found in /sys/bus/pci/devices/. For example:

# echo 0000:00:19.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/foo/unbind

(Note: kernels before 2.6.28 may require echo -n).

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/altera-cvp/chkcfg

Defined on file sysfs-driver-altera-cvp

Contains either 1 or 0 and controls if configuration error checking in altera-cvp driver is turned on or off.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/.../companion

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-drivers-ehci_hcd

PCI-based EHCI USB controllers (i.e., high-speed USB-2.0 controllers) are often implemented along with a set of “companion” full/low-speed USB-1.1 controllers. When a high-speed device is plugged in, the connection is routed to the EHCI controller; when a full- or low-speed device is plugged in, the connection is routed to the companion controller.

Sometimes you want to force a high-speed device to connect at full speed, which can be accomplished by forcing the connection to be routed to the companion controller. That’s what this file does. Writing a port number to the file causes connections on that port to be routed to the companion controller, and writing the negative of a port number returns the port to normal operation.

For example: To force the high-speed device attached to port 4 on bus 2 to run at full speed:

echo 4 >/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/../companion

To return the port to high-speed operation:

echo -4 >/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/../companion

Reading the file gives the list of ports currently forced to the companion controller.

Note: Some EHCI controllers do not have companions; they may contain an internal “transaction translator” or they may be attached directly to a “rate-matching hub”. This mechanism will not work with such controllers. Also, it cannot be used to force a port on a high-speed hub to connect at full speed.

Note: When this file was first added, it appeared in a different sysfs directory. The location given above is correct for 2.6.35 (and probably several earlier kernel versions as well).

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/allow_interrupt_control

Defined on file sysfs-driver-pciback

List of devices which can have interrupt control flag (INTx, MSI, MSI-X) set by a connected guest. It is meant to be set only when the guest is a stubdomain hosting device model (qemu) and the actual device is assigned to a HVM. It is not safe (similar to permissive attribute) to set for a devices assigned to a PV guest. The device is automatically removed from this list when the connected pcifront terminates.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/quirks

Defined on file sysfs-driver-pciback

If the permissive attribute is set, then writing a string in the format of DDDD:BB:DD.F-REG:SIZE:MASK will allow the guest to write and read from the PCI device. That is Domain:Bus: Device.Function-Register:Size:Mask (Domain is optional). For example:

#echo 00:19.0-E0:2:FF > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/quirks

will allow the guest to read and write to the configuration register 0x0E.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/xhci_hcd/.../dbc

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-drivers-xhci_hcd

xHCI compatible USB host controllers (i.e. super-speed USB3 controllers) are often implemented with the Debug Capability (DbC). It can present a debug device which is fully compliant with the USB framework and provides the equivalent of a very high performance full-duplex serial link for debug purpose.

The DbC debug device shares a root port with xHCI host. When the DbC is enabled, the root port will be assigned to the Debug Capability. Otherwise, it will be assigned to xHCI.

Writing “enable” to this attribute will enable the DbC functionality and the shared root port will be assigned to the DbC device. Writing “disable” to this attribute will disable the DbC functionality and the shared root port will roll back to the xHCI.

Reading this attribute gives the state of the DbC. It can be one of the following states: disabled, enabled, initialized, connected, configured and stalled.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/xhci_hcd/.../dbc_bInterfaceProtocol

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-drivers-xhci_hcd

This attribute lets us change the bInterfaceProtocol field presented in the USB Interface descriptor by the xhci debug device. Value can only be changed while debug capability (DbC) is in disabled state to prevent USB descriptor change while connected to a USB host. The default value is 1 (GNU Remote Debug command). Other permissible value is 0 which is for vendor defined debug target.

/sys/bus/pci/drivers/xhci_hcd/.../dbc_bcdDevice

Defined on file sysfs-bus-pci-drivers-xhci_hcd

This dbc_bcdDevice attribute lets us change the bcdDevice field presented in the USB device descriptor by this xhci debug device. Value can only be changed while debug capability (DbC) is in disabled state to prevent USB device descriptor change while connected to a USB host. The default value is 0x0010. (device rev 0.10) It can be any 16-bit integer.

Possible values: “on”, “off”.

Changes are notified via select/poll.

/sys/bus/platform/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-platform

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified which will override standard OF, ACPI, ID table, and name matching. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo vfio-platform > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

/sys/bus/platform/devices/.../modalias

Defined on file sysfs-bus-platform

Defined on file sysfs-devices-platform-ACPI-TAD

(RW) The AC alarm expired timer wake policy (see ACPI 6.2, Section 9.18 for details).

Reads return the current expired timer wake delay for the AC alarm timer or “never”, if the policy is to discard AC timer wakeups if the system is on DC power.

Write a new expired timer wake delay for the AC alarm timer in seconds or “never” to it to set the expired timer wake delay for the AC alarm timer or to set its expired wake policy to discard wakeups if the system is on DC power, respectively.

/sys/bus/platform/devices/ACPI000E:00/ac_status

Defined on file sysfs-devices-platform-ACPI-TAD

Reads return a hexadecimal bitmask representing the AC alarm timer status with the following meaning of bits (see ACPI 6.2, Section 9.18.5):

Bit(0):

The timer has expired if set.

Bit(1):

The timer has woken up the system from a sleep state (S3 or S4/S5 if supported) if set.

The other bits are reserved.

Reads also cause the AC alarm timer status to be reset.

Another way to reset the status of the AC alarm timer is to write (the number) 0 to this file.

If the status return value indicates that the timer has expired, it will immediately wake up the system from the S3 sleep state (and from S4/S5 too if supported) until its status is explicitly cleared through this attribute.

/sys/bus/platform/devices/ACPI000E:00/caps

/sys/bus/platform/devices/INTC1092:00/intc_data

Defined on file sysfs-driver-intc_sar

This sysfs entry is used to retrieve Dynamic SAR information emitted/maintained by a BIOS that supports Dynamic SAR.

The retrieved information is in the order given below: - device_mode - bandtable_index - antennatable_index - sartable_index

The above information is sent as integer values separated by a single space. This information can then be pushed to a WWAN modem that uses this to control the transmit signal level using the Band/Antenna/SAR table index information. These parameters are derived/decided by aggregating device-mode like laptop/tablet/clamshell etc. and the proximity-sensor data available to the embedded controller on given host. The regulatory mode configured on Dynamic SAR driver also influences these values.

The userspace applications can poll for changes to this file using POLLPRI event on file-descriptor (fd) obtained by opening this sysfs entry. Application can then read this information from the sysfs node and consume the given information.

/sys/bus/platform/devices/INTC1092:00/intc_reg

Defined on file sysfs-driver-intc_sar

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

For each RapidIO device, the RapidIO subsystem creates files in an individual subdirectory with the following name format of device_name “nn:d:iiii”, where:

nn

two-digit hexadecimal ID of RapidIO network where the device resides

d

device type: ‘e’ - for endpoint or ‘s’ - for switch

iiii

four-digit device destID for endpoints, or switchID for switches

For example, below is a list of device directories that represents a typical RapidIO network with one switch, one host, and two agent endpoints, as it is seen by the enumerating host (with destID = 1):

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:e:0000
/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:e:0002
/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/00:s:0001
NOTE:

An enumerating or discovering endpoint does not create a sysfs entry for itself, this is why an endpoint with destID=1 is not shown in the list.

Attributes Common for All RapidIO Devices

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>/asm_did

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RO) returns identifier for the assembly containing the device

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>/asm_rev

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RO) returns revision level of the assembly containing the device

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>/asm_vid

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>/config

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RW) Binary attribute to read from and write to the device configuration registers using the RapidIO maintenance transactions. This attribute is similar in behaviour to the “config” attribute of PCI devices and provides an access to the RapidIO device registers using standard file read and write operations.

RapidIO Switch Device Attributes

RapidIO switches have additional attributes in sysfs. RapidIO subsystem supports common and device-specific sysfs attributes for switches. Because switches are integrated into the RapidIO subsystem, it offers a method to create device-specific sysfs attributes by specifying a callback function that may be set by the switch initialization routine during enumeration or discovery process.

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<d>:<iiii>/destid

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RO) returns device destination ID assigned by the enumeration routine

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<s>:<iiii>/lnext

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RO) returns names of devices linked to the switch except one of a device linked to the ingress port (reported as “lprev”). This is an array names with number of lines equal to number of ports in switch. If a switch port has no attached device, returns “null” instead of a device name.

Device-specific Switch Attributes

IDT_GEN2-

/sys/bus/rapidio/devices/<nn>:<s>:<iiii>/routes

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(RO) reports switch routing information in “destID port” format. This attribute reports only valid routing table entries, one line for each entry.

/sys/bus/rapidio/scan

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rapidio

(WO) Allows to trigger enumeration discovery process from user space. To initiate an enumeration or discovery process on specific mport device, a user needs to write mport_ID (not RapidIO destination ID) into this file. The mport_ID is a sequential number (0 ... RIO_MAX_MPORTS) assigned to the mport device. For example, for a machine with a single RapidIO controller, mport_ID for that controller always will be 0. To initiate RapidIO enumeration/discovery on all available mports a user must write ‘-1’ (or RIO_MPORT_ANY) into this attribute file.

/sys/bus/rbd/add

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rbd

(WO) Add rbd block device.

Usage: <mon ip addr> <options> <pool name> <rbd image name> [<snap name>]

Example:

$ echo "192.168.0.1 name=admin rbd foo" > /sys/bus/rbd/add

The snapshot name can be “-” or omitted to map the image read/write. A <dev-id> will be assigned for any registered block device. If snapshot is used, it will be mapped read-only.

/sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rbd

(WO) Available only if rbd module is inserted with single_major parameter set to true.

Usage is the same as for /sys/bus/rbd/add. If present, this should be used instead of the latter: any attempts to use /sys/bus/rbd/add if /sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major is available will fail for backwards compatibility reasons.

/sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/image_id

/sys/bus/rbd/devices/<dev-id>/features

(WO) Remove rbd block device.

Usage: <dev-id> [force]

Example:

$ echo 2 > /sys/bus/rbd/remove

Optional “force” argument which when passed will wait for running requests and then unmap the image. Requests sent to the driver after initiating the removal will be failed. (August 2016, since 4.9.)

/sys/bus/rbd/remove_single_major

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rbd

(WO) Available only if rbd module is inserted with single_major parameter set to true.

/sys/bus/rbd/supported_features

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rbd

(RO) Displays the features supported by the rbd module so that userspace can generate meaningful error messages and spell out unsupported features that need to be disabled.

/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../announce

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rpmsg

Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote processor. Channels are identified by a textual name (see /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name above) and have a local (“source”) rpmsg address, and remote (“destination”) rpmsg address.

A channel is first created when an entity, whether local or remote, starts listening on it for messages (and is thus called an rpmsg server).

When that happens, a “name service” announcement is sent to the other processor, in order to let it know about the creation of the channel (this way remote clients know they can start sending messages).

This sysfs entry tells us whether the channel is a local server channel that is announced (values are either true or false).

/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rpmsg

Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote processor. Channels are identified by a textual name (see /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name above) and have a local (“source”) rpmsg address, and remote (“destination”) rpmsg address.

The listening entity (or client) which communicates with a remote processor is referred as rpmsg driver. The rpmsg device and rpmsg driver are matched based on rpmsg device name and rpmsg driver ID table.

This sysfs entry allows the rpmsg driver for a rpmsg device to be specified which will override standard OF, ID table and name matching.

/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../dst

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rpmsg

Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote processor. Channels have a local (“source”) rpmsg address, and remote (“destination”) rpmsg address. When an entity starts listening on one end of a channel, it assigns it with a unique rpmsg address (a 32 bits integer). This way when inbound messages arrive to this address, the rpmsg core dispatches them to the listening entity.

This sysfs entry contains the dst (remote) rpmsg address of this channel. If it contains 0xffffffff, then an address wasn’t assigned (can happen if the kernel driver that is attached to this channel is exposing a service to the remote processor. This make it a local rpmsg server, and it is listening for inbound messages that may be sent from any remote rpmsg client; it is not bound to a single remote entity).

/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rpmsg

Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote processor. Channels are identified with a (textual) name, which is maximum 32 bytes long (defined as RPMSG_NAME_SIZE in rpmsg.h).

This sysfs entry contains the name of this channel.

/sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../src

Defined on file sysfs-bus-rpmsg

Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote processor. Channels have a local (“source”) rpmsg address, and remote (“destination”) rpmsg address. When an entity starts listening on one end of a channel, it assigns it with a unique rpmsg address (a 32 bits integer). This way when inbound messages arrive to this address, the rpmsg core dispatches them to the listening entity (a kernel driver).

This sysfs entry contains the src (local) rpmsg address of this channel. If it contains 0xffffffff, then an address wasn’t assigned (can happen if no driver exists for this channel).

/sys/bus/scsi/drivers/st/debug_flag

Defined on file sysfs-driver-st

This file allows you to turn debug output from the st driver off if you write a ‘0’ to the file or on if you write a ‘1’. Note that debug output requires that the module be compiled with the #define DEBUG set to a non-zero value (this is the default). If DEBUG is set to 0 then this file will not appear in sysfs as its presence is conditional upon debug output support being compiled into the module.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X-Y/connected

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

Read-only value. “0” means the Yth device on siox bus X isn’t “connected” i.e. communication with it is not ensured. “1” signals a working connection.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X-Y/watchdog

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

Read-only value reporting if the watchdog of the siox device is active. “0” means the watchdog is not active and the device is expected to be operational. “1” means the watchdog keeps the device in reset.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X-Y/watchdog_errors

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

Read-only value reporting the number to time intervals when the watchdog was active.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X/active

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

On reading represents the current state of the bus. If it contains a “0” the bus is stopped and connected devices are expected to not do anything because their watchdog triggered. When the file contains a “1” the bus is operated and periodically does a push-pull cycle to write and read data from the connected devices.

When writing a “0” or “1” the bus moves to the described state.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X/device_add

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

Write-only file. Write

<type> <inbytes> <outbytes> <statustype>

to add a new device dynamically. <type> is the name that is used to match to a driver (similar to the platform bus). <inbytes> and <outbytes> define the length of the input and output shift register in bytes respectively.

<statustype> defines the 4 bit device type that is check to identify connection problems.

The new device is added to the end of the existing chain.

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X/device_remove

/sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X/poll_interval_ns

Defined on file sysfs-bus-siox

Defines the interval between two poll cycles in nano seconds. Note this is rounded to jiffies on writing. On reading the current value is returned.

/sys/bus/soc

Defined on file sysfs-devices-soc

The /sys/bus/soc/ directory contains the usual sub-folders expected under most buses. /sys/bus/soc/devices is of particular interest, as it contains a symlink for each SoC device found on the system. Each symlink points back into the aforementioned /sys/devices/socX devices.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-soundwire-slave

SoundWire Slave status

These properties report the Slave status, e.g. if it is UNATTACHED or not, and in the latter case show the device_number. This status information is useful to detect devices exposed by platform firmware but not physically present on the bus, and conversely devices not exposed in platform firmware but enumerated.

/sys/bus/spi/<dev>/reset

Defined on file sysfs-driver-ge-achc

This file represents the microcontroller’s reset line. 1 means the reset line is asserted, 0 means it’s not asserted. The file is read and writable.

/sys/bus/spi/<dev>/update_firmware

Defined on file sysfs-driver-ge-achc

Write 1 to this file to update the ACHC microcontroller firmware via the EzPort interface. For this the kernel will load “achc.bin” via the firmware API (so usually from /lib/firmware). The write will block until the FW has either been flashed successfully or an error occurred.

/sys/bus/surface_aggregator/devices/01:0e:01:00:01/state

Defined on file sysfs-bus-surface_aggregator-tabletsw

This attribute returns a string with the current type-cover or device posture, as indicated by the embedded controller. Currently returned posture states are:

  • “disconnected”: The type-cover has been disconnected.

  • “closed”: The type-cover has been folded closed and lies on top of the display.

  • “laptop”: The type-cover is open and in laptop-mode, i.e., ready for normal use.

  • “folded-canvas”: The type-cover has been folded back part-ways, but does not lie flush with the back side of the device. In general, this means that the kick-stand is used and extended atop of the cover.

  • “folded-back”: The type cover has been fully folded back and lies flush with the back side of the device.

  • “<unknown>”: The current state is unknown to the driver, for example due to newer as-of-yet unsupported hardware.

New states may be introduced with new hardware. Users therefore must not rely on this list of states being exhaustive and gracefully handle unknown states.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../domainX/boot_acl

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

Holds a comma separated list of device unique_ids that are allowed to be connected automatically during system startup (e.g boot devices). The list always contains maximum supported number of unique_ids where unused entries are empty. This allows the userspace software to determine how many entries the controller supports. If there are multiple controllers, each controller has its own ACL list and size may be different between the controllers.

System BIOS may have an option “Preboot ACL” or similar that needs to be selected before this list is taken into consideration.

Software always updates a full list in each write.

If a device is authorized automatically during boot its boot attribute is set to 1.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../domainX/deauthorization

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

This attribute tells whether the system supports de-authorization of devices. Value of 1 means user can de-authorize PCIe tunnel by writing 0 to authorized attribute under each device.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../domainX/iommu_dma_protection

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

This attribute tells whether the system uses IOMMU for DMA protection. Value of 1 means IOMMU is used 0 means it is not (DMA protection is solely based on Thunderbolt security levels).

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../domainX/security

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

This attribute holds current Thunderbolt security level set by the system BIOS. Possible values are:

none

All devices are automatically authorized

user

Devices are only authorized based on writing appropriate value to the authorized attribute

secure

This attribute contains the generation of the Thunderbolt controller associated with the device. It will contain 4 for USB4.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../key

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

When a devices supports Thunderbolt secure connect it will have this attribute. Writing 32 byte hex string changes authorization to use the secure connection method instead. Writing an empty string clears the key and regular connection method can be used again.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../maxhopid

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

Only set for XDomains. The maximum HopID the other host supports as its input HopID.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../nvm_authenticate

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

When new NVM image is written to the non-active NVM area (through non_activeX NVMem device), the authentication procedure is started by writing to this file. If everything goes well, the device is restarted with the new NVM firmware. If the image verification fails an error code is returned instead.

This file will accept writing values “1”, “2” or “3”.

  • Writing “1” will flush the image to the storage area and authenticate the image in one action.

  • Writing “2” will run some basic validation on the image and flush it to the storage area.

  • Writing “3” will authenticate the image that is currently written in the storage area. This is only supported with USB4 devices and retimers.

When read holds status of the last authentication operation if an error occurred during the process. This is directly the status value from the DMA configuration based mailbox before the device is power cycled. Writing 0 here clears the status.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../nvm_authenticate_on_disconnect

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

For supported devices, automatically authenticate the new Thunderbolt image when the device is disconnected from the host system.

This file will accept writing values “1” or “2”

  • Writing “1” will flush the image to the storage area and prepare the device for authentication on disconnect.

  • Writing “2” will run some basic validation on the image and flush it to the storage area.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/.../nvm_version

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

If the device has upgradeable firmware the version number is available here. Format: %x.%x, major.minor. If the device is in safe mode reading the file returns -ENODATA instead as the NVM version is not available.

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

Returns the current link mode. Possible values are “usb4”, “tbt” and “none”.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/usb4_portX/offline

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

Writing 1 to this attribute puts the USB4 port into offline mode. Only allowed when there is nothing connected to the port (link attribute returns “none”). Once the port is in offline mode it does not receive any hotplug events. This is used to update NVM firmware of on-board retimers. Writing 0 puts the port back to online mode.

This attribute is only visible if the platform supports powering on retimers when there is no cable connected.

/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/usb4_portX/rescan

Defined on file sysfs-bus-thunderbolt

When the USB4 port is in offline mode writing 1 to this attribute forces rescan of the sideband for on-board retimers. Each retimer appear under the USB4 port as if the USB4 link was up. These retimers act in the same way as if the cable was connected so upgrading their NVM firmware can be done the usual way.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../active

Defined on file sysfs-bus-typec

Shows if the mode is active or not. The attribute can be used for entering/exiting the mode. Entering/exiting modes is supported as synchronous operation so write(2) to the attribute does not return until the enter/exit mode operation has finished. The attribute is notified when the mode is entered/exited so poll(2) on the attribute wakes up. Entering/exiting a mode will also generate uevent KOBJ_CHANGE.

Valid values are boolean.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../description

Defined on file sysfs-bus-typec

Shows description of the mode. The description is optional for the drivers, just like with the Billboard Devices.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../displayport/configuration

Defined on file sysfs-driver-typec-displayport

Shows the current DisplayPort configuration for the connector. Valid values are USB, source and sink. Source means DisplayPort source, and sink means DisplayPort sink.

All supported configurations are listed as space separated list with the active one wrapped in square brackets.

Source example:

USB [source] sink

The configuration can be changed by writing to the file

Note. USB configuration does not equal to Exit Mode. It is separate configuration defined in VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard. Functionally it equals to the situation where the mode has been exited (to exit the mode, see testing/sysfs-bus-typec, and use file /sys/bus/typec/devices/.../active).

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../displayport/hpd

Defined on file sysfs-driver-typec-displayport

VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard defines how HotPlugDetect(HPD) shall be supported on the USB-C connector when operating in DisplayPort Alt Mode. This is a read only node which reflects the current state of HPD.

Valid values:
  • 1: when HPD’s logical state is high (HPD_High) as defined

    by VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard.

  • 0 when HPD’s logical state is low (HPD_Low) as defined by

    VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../displayport/pin_assignment

Defined on file sysfs-driver-typec-displayport

VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard defines six different pin assignments for USB Type-C connector that are labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. The supported pin assignments are listed as space separated list with the active one wrapped in square brackets.

Example:

C [D]

Pin assignment can be changed by writing to the file. It is possible to set pin assignment before configuration has been set, but the assignment will not be active before the connector is actually configured.

Note. As of VESA DisplayPort Alt Mode on USB Type-C Standard version 1.0b, pin assignments A, B, and F are deprecated. Only pin assignment D can now carry simultaneously one channel of USB SuperSpeed protocol. From user perspective pin assignments C and E are equal, where all channels on the connector are used for carrying DisplayPort protocol (allowing higher resolutions).

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../mode

Defined on file sysfs-bus-typec

The index number of the mode returned by Discover Modes USB Power Delivery command. Depending on the alternate mode, the mode index may be significant.

With some alternate modes (SVIDs), the mode index is assigned for specific functionality in the specification for that alternate mode.

With other alternate modes, the mode index values are not assigned, and can not be therefore used for identification. When the mode index is not assigned, identifying the alternate mode must be done with either mode VDO or the description.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../svid

Defined on file sysfs-bus-typec

The Standard or Vendor ID (SVID) assigned by USB-IF for this alternate mode.

/sys/bus/typec/devices/.../vdo

The text (or data) for the device to display

/sys/bus/usb/.../textmode

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb-devices-usbsevseg

Controls the way the device interprets its text buffer. raw: each character controls its segment manually hex: each character is between 0-15 ascii: each character is between ‘0’-‘9’ and ‘A’-‘F’.

/sys/bus/usb/device/.../authorized

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/connect_type

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Some platforms provide usb port connect types through ACPI. This attribute is to expose these information to user space. The file will read “hotplug”, “hardwired” and “not used” if the information is available, and “unknown” otherwise.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/connector

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Link to the USB Type-C connector when available. This link is only created when USB Type-C Connector Class is enabled, and only if the system firmware is capable of describing the connection between a port and its connector.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/disable

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

This file controls the state of a USB port, including Vbus power output (but only on hubs that support power switching -- most hubs don’t support it). If a port is disabled, the port is unusable: Devices attached to the port will not be detected, initialized, or enumerated.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/early_stop

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Some USB hosts have some watchdog mechanisms so that the device may enter ramdump if it takes a long time during port initialization. This attribute allows each port just has two attempts so that the port initialization will be failed quickly. In addition, if a port which is marked with early_stop has failed to initialize, it will ignore all future connections until this attribute is clear.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/location

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Some platforms provide usb port physical location through firmware. This is used by the kernel to pair up logical ports mapping to the same physical connector. The attribute exposes the raw location value as a hex integer.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/over_current_count

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Most hubs are able to detect over-current situations on their ports and report them to the kernel. This attribute is to expose the number of over-current situation occurred on a specific port to user space. This file will contain an unsigned 32 bit value which wraps to 0 after its maximum is reached. This file supports poll() for monitoring changes to this value in user space.

Any time this value changes the corresponding hub device will send a udev event with the following attributes:

OVER_CURRENT_PORT=/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>
OVER_CURRENT_COUNT=[current value of this sysfs attribute]

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/quirks

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

In some cases, we care about time-to-active for devices connected on a specific port (e.g. non-standard USB port like pogo pins), where the device to be connected is known in advance, and behaves well according to the specification. This attribute is a bit-field that controls the behavior of a specific port:

  • Bit 0 of this field selects the “old” enumeration scheme, as it is considerably faster (it only causes one USB reset instead of 2).

    The old enumeration scheme can also be selected globally using /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/old_scheme_first, but it is often not desirable as the new scheme was introduced to increase compatibility with more devices.

  • Bit 1 reduces TRSTRCY to the 10 ms that are required by the USB 2.0 specification, instead of the 50 ms that are normally used to help make enumeration work better on some high speed devices.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/state

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Indicates current state of the USB device attached to the port. Valid states are: ‘not-attached’, ‘attached’, ‘powered’, ‘reconnecting’, ‘unauthenticated’, ‘default’, ‘addressed’, ‘configured’, and ‘suspended’. This file supports poll() to monitor the state change from user space.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../<hub_interface>/port<X>/usb3_lpm_permit

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../ltm_capable

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

USB 3.0 devices may optionally support Latency Tolerance Messaging (LTM). They indicate their support by setting a bit in the bmAttributes field of their SuperSpeed BOS descriptors. If that bit is set for the device, ltm_capable will read “yes”. If the device doesn’t support LTM, the file will read “no”. The file will be present for all speeds of USB devices, and will always read “no” for USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/usb2_hardware_lpm

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

If CONFIG_PM is set and a USB 2.0 lpm-capable device is plugged in to a xHCI host which support link PM, it will perform a LPM test; if the test is passed and host supports USB2 hardware LPM (xHCI 1.0 feature), USB2 hardware LPM will be enabled for the device and the USB device directory will contain a file named power/usb2_hardware_lpm. The file holds a string value (enable or disable) indicating whether or not USB2 hardware LPM is enabled for the device. Developer can write y/Y/1 or n/N/0 to the file to enable/disable the feature.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/usb2_lpm_besl

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

USB 2.0 devices that support hardware link power management (LPM) L1 sleep state now use a best effort service latency value (BESL) to indicate the best effort to resumption of service to the device after the initiation of the resume event. If the device does not have a preferred besl value then the host can select one instead. This usb2_lpm_besl attribute allows to tune the host selected besl value in order to tune power saving and service latency.

Supported values are 0 - 15. More information on how besl values map to microseconds can be found in USB 2.0 ECN Errata for Link Power Management, section 4.10)

Useful for power management tuning. Supported values are 0 - 65535 microseconds.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/usb3_hardware_lpm_u1

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

If CONFIG_PM is set and a USB 3.0 lpm-capable device is plugged in to a xHCI host which supports link PM, it will check if U1 and U2 exit latencies have been set in the BOS descriptor; if the check is passed and the host supports USB3 hardware LPM, USB3 hardware LPM will be enabled for the device and the USB device directory will contain two files named power/usb3_hardware_lpm_u1 and power/usb3_hardware_lpm_u2. These files hold a string value (enable or disable) indicating whether or not USB3 hardware LPM U1 or U2 is enabled for the device.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../rx_lanes

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Number of rx lanes the device is using. USB 3.2 adds Dual-lane support, 2 rx and 2 tx lanes over Type-C. Inter-Chip SSIC devices support asymmetric lanes up to 4 lanes per direction. Devices before USB 3.2 are single lane (rx_lanes = 1)

/sys/bus/usb/devices/<INTERFACE>/authorized

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

This allows to authorize (1) or deauthorize (0) individual interfaces instead a whole device in contrast to the device authorization. If a deauthorized interface will be authorized so the driver probing must be triggered manually by writing INTERFACE to /sys/bus/usb/drivers_probe This allows to avoid side-effects with drivers that need multiple interfaces.

A deauthorized interface cannot be probed or claimed.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/<INTERFACE>/wireless_status

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Some USB devices use a USB receiver dongle to communicate wirelessly with their device using proprietary protocols. This attribute allows user-space to know whether the device is connected to its receiver dongle, and, for example, consider the device to be absent when choosing whether to show the device’s battery, show a headset in a list of outputs, or show an on-screen keyboard if the only wireless keyboard is turned off. This attribute is not to be used to replace protocol specific statuses available in WWAN, WLAN/Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. If the device does not use a receiver dongle with a wireless device, then this attribute will not exist.

Make it possible to adjust defio refresh rate.

Reading: returns list of available refresh rates (expressed in Hz), the active refresh rate being enclosed in brackets (‘[’ and ‘]’)

Writing: accepts new refresh rate expressed in integer Hz within permitted rates.

Note: As device can barely do 2 complete refreshes a second it only makes sense to adjust this value if only one or two tiles get changed and it’s not appropriate to expect the application to flush its tiny changes explicitly at higher than default rate.

/sys/bus/usb/drivers/.../new_id

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Writing a device ID to this file will attempt to dynamically add a new device ID to a USB device driver. This may allow the driver to support more hardware than was included in the driver’s static device ID support table at compile time. The format for the device ID is: idVendor idProduct bInterfaceClass RefIdVendor RefIdProduct The vendor ID and device ID fields are required, the rest is optional. The Ref* tuple can be used to tell the driver to use the same driver_data for the new device as it is used for the reference device. Upon successfully adding an ID, the driver will probe for the device and attempt to bind to it. For example:

# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/new_id

Here add a new device (0458:7045) using driver_data from an already supported device (0458:704c):

# echo "0458 7045 0 0458 704c" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/new_id

Reading from this file will list all dynamically added device IDs in the same format, with one entry per line. For example:

# cat /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/new_id
8086 10f5
dead beef 06
f00d cafe

The list will be truncated at PAGE_SIZE bytes due to sysfs restrictions.

/sys/bus/usb/drivers/.../remove_id

Defined on file sysfs-bus-usb

Writing a device ID to this file will remove an ID that was dynamically added via the new_id sysfs entry. The format for the device ID is: idVendor idProduct. After successfully removing an ID, the driver will no longer support the device. This is useful to ensure auto probing won’t match the driver to the device. For example: # echo “046d c315” > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/foo/remove_id

Reading from this file will list the dynamically added device IDs, exactly like reading from the entry “/sys/bus/usb/drivers/.../new_id”

/sys/bus/vdpa/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vdpa

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo vhost-vdpa > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

/sys/bus/vdpa/driver_probe

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vdpa

Writing a device name to this file will cause the kernel binds devices to a compatible driver.

This can be useful when /sys/bus/vdpa/drivers_autoprobe is disabled.

/sys/bus/vdpa/drivers/.../bind

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vdpa

Writing a device name to this file will cause the driver to attempt to bind to the device. This is useful for overriding default bindings.

/sys/bus/vdpa/drivers/.../unbind

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vdpa

Writing a device name to this file will cause the driver to attempt to unbind from the device. This may be useful when overriding default bindings.

/sys/bus/vdpa/drivers_autoprobe

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vdpa

This file determines whether new devices are immediately bound to a driver after the creation. It initially contains 1, which means the kernel automatically binds devices to a compatible driver immediately after they are created.

Writing “0” to this file disable this feature, any other string enable it.

/sys/bus/vmbus/devices/.../driver_override

Defined on file sysfs-bus-vmbus

This file allows the driver for a device to be specified which will override standard static and dynamic ID matching. When specified, only a driver with a name matching the value written to driver_override will have an opportunity to bind to the device. The override is specified by writing a string to the driver_override file (echo uio_hv_generic > driver_override) and may be cleared with an empty string (echo > driver_override). This returns the device to standard matching rules binding. Writing to driver_override does not automatically unbind the device from its current driver or make any attempt to automatically load the specified driver. If no driver with a matching name is currently loaded in the kernel, the device will not bind to any driver. This also allows devices to opt-out of driver binding using a driver_override name such as “none”. Only a single driver may be specified in the override, there is no support for parsing delimiters.

/sys/bus/w1/devices/.../resolution

Defined on file sysfs-driver-w1_therm

(RW) get or set the device resolution (on supported devices, if not, this entry is not present). Note that the resolution will be changed only in device RAM, so it will be cleared when power is lost. Trigger a ‘save’ to EEPROM command to keep values after power-on. Read or write are :

  • ‘9..14’: device resolution in bit or resolution to set in bit

  • ‘-xx’: xx is kernel error when reading the resolution

  • Anything else: do nothing

Some DS18B20 clones are fixed in 12-bit resolution, so the actual resolution is read back from the chip and verified. Error is reported if the results differ.

/sys/class/chromeos/<ec-device-name>/lightbar/led_rgb

Defined on file sysfs-class-chromeos-driver-cros-ec-lightbar

This allows you to control each LED segment. If the lightbar is already running one of the automatic sequences, you probably won’t see anything change because your color setting will be almost immediately replaced. To get useful results, you should stop the lightbar sequence first.

The values written to this file are sets of four integers, indicating LED, RED, GREEN, BLUE. The LED number is 0 to 3 to select a single segment, or 4 to set all four segments to the same value at once. The RED, GREEN, and BLUE numbers should be in the range 0 (off) to 255 (maximum). You can update more than one segment at a time by writing more than one set of four integers.

Provide a place in sysfs for the device link objects in the kernel at any given time. The name of a device link directory, denoted as ... above, is of the form <supplier>--<consumer> where <supplier> is the supplier bus:device name and <consumer> is the consumer bus:device name.

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file indicates if the device link will ever be automatically removed by the driver core when the consumer and supplier devices themselves are still present.

This will be one of the following strings:

  • ‘consumer unbind’

  • ‘supplier unbind’

  • ‘never’

‘consumer unbind’ means the device link will be removed when the consumer’s driver is unbound from the consumer device.

‘supplier unbind’ means the device link will be removed when the supplier’s driver is unbound from the supplier device.

‘never’ means the device link will not be automatically removed when as long as the supplier and consumer devices themselves are still present.

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file is a symlink to the consumer device’s sysfs directory.

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file indicates if the device link has any impact on the runtime power management behavior of the consumer and supplier devices. For example: Making sure the supplier doesn’t enter runtime suspend while the consumer is active.

This will be one of the following strings:

‘0’

Does not affect runtime power management

‘1’

Affects runtime power management

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file indicates the status of the device link. The status of a device link is affected by whether the supplier and consumer devices have been bound to their corresponding drivers. The status of a device link also affects the binding and unbinding of the supplier and consumer devices with their drivers and also affects whether the software state of the supplier device is synced with the hardware state of the supplier device after boot up. See also: sysfs-devices-state_synced.

This will be one of the following strings:

  • ‘not tracked’

  • ‘dormant’

  • ‘available’

  • ‘consumer probing’

  • ‘active’

  • ‘supplier unbinding’

  • ‘unknown’

‘not tracked’ means this device link does not track the status and has no impact on the binding, unbinding and syncing the hardware and software device state.

‘dormant’ means the supplier and the consumer devices have not bound to their driver.

‘available’ means the supplier has bound to its driver and is available to supply resources to the consumer device.

‘consumer probing’ means the consumer device is currently trying to bind to its driver.

‘active’ means the supplier and consumer devices have both bound successfully to their drivers.

‘supplier unbinding’ means the supplier devices is currently in the process of unbinding from its driver.

‘unknown’ means the state of the device link is not any of the above. If this is ever the value, there’s a bug in the kernel.

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file is a symlink to the supplier device’s sysfs directory.

Defined on file sysfs-class-devlink

This file indicates if the device link is limited to only affecting the syncing of the hardware and software state of the supplier device.

This will be one of the following strings:

‘0’

‘1’

Affects runtime power management

‘0’ means the device link can affect other device behaviors like binding/unbinding, suspend/resume, runtime power management, etc.

‘1’ means the device link will only affect the syncing of hardware and software state of the supplier device after boot up and doesn’t not affect other behaviors of the devices.

/sys/class/extcon/.../

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

Provide a place in sysfs for the extcon objects. This allows accessing extcon specific variables. The name of extcon object denoted as ... is the name given with extcon_dev_register.

One extcon device denotes a single external connector port. An external connector may have multiple cables attached simultaneously. Many of docks, cradles, and accessory cables have such capability. For example, the 30-pin port of Nuri board (/arch/arm/mach-exynos) may have both HDMI and Charger attached, or analog audio, video, and USB cables attached simultaneously.

If there are cables mutually exclusive with each other, such binary relations may be expressed with extcon_dev’s mutually_exclusive array.

/sys/class/extcon/.../cable.X/name

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

The /sys/class/extcon/.../cable.X/name shows the name of cable “X” (integer between 0 and 31) of an extcon device.

/sys/class/extcon/.../cable.X/state

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

The /sys/class/extcon/.../cable.X/state shows and stores the state of cable “X” (integer between 0 and 31) of an extcon device. The state value is either 0 (detached) or 1 (attached).

/sys/class/extcon/.../mutually_exclusive/..

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

Shows the relations of mutually exclusiveness. For example, if the mutually_exclusive array of extcon device is {0x3, 0x5, 0xC, 0x0}, then the output is:

# ls mutually_exclusive/
0x3
0x5
0xc
#

Note that mutually_exclusive is a sub-directory of the extcon device and the file names under the mutually_exclusive directory show the mutually-exclusive sets, not the contents of the files.

/sys/class/extcon/.../name

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

The /sys/class/extcon/.../name shows the name of the extcon object. If the extcon object has an optional callback “show_name” defined, the callback will provide the name with this sysfs node.

/sys/class/extcon/.../state

Defined on file sysfs-class-extcon

The /sys/class/extcon/.../state shows and stores the cable attach/detach information of the corresponding extcon object. If the extcon object has an optional callback “show_state” defined, the showing function is overridden with the optional callback.

If the default callback for showing function is used, the format is like this:

# cat state
USB_OTG=1
HDMI=0
TA=1
EAR_JACK=0
#

In this example, the extcon device has USB_OTG and TA cables attached and HDMI and EAR_JACK cables detached.

In order to update the state of an extcon device, enter a hex state number starting with 0x:

# echo 0xHEX > state

This updates the whole state of the extcon device. Inputs of all the methods are required to meet the mutually_exclusive conditions if they exist.

It is recommended to use this “global” state interface if you need to set the value atomically. The later state interface associated with each cable cannot update multiple cable states of an extcon device simultaneously.

/sys/class/fc/fc_udev_device/appid_store

Defined on file sysfs-class-fc

This interface allows an admin to set an FC application identifier in the blkcg associated with a cgroup id. The identifier is typically a UUID that is associated with an application or logical entity such as a virtual machine or container group. The application or logical entity utilizes a block device via the cgroup id. FC adapter drivers may query the identifier and tag FC traffic based on the identifier. FC host and FC fabric entities can utilize the application id and FC traffic tag to identify traffic sources.

The interface expects a string “<cgroupid>:<appid>” where: <cgroupid> is inode of the cgroup in hexadecimal <appid> is user provided string upto 128 characters in length.

If an appid_store is done for a cgroup id that already has an appid set, the new value will override the previous value.

If an admin wants to remove an FC application identifier from a cgroup, an appid_store should be done with the following string: “<cgroupid>:”

This file can also be written to in order to update the value of a <attr>

This attribute is mandatory.

default_value:

A file that can be read to obtain the default value of the <attr>

display_name:

A file that can be read to obtain a user friendly description of the at <attr>

display_name_language_code:

A file that can be read to obtain the IETF language tag corresponding to the “display_name” of the <attr>

“enumeration”-type specific properties:

possible_values:

A file that can be read to obtain the possible values of the <attr>. Values are separated using semi-colon (;).

“integer”-type specific properties:

min_value:

A file that can be read to obtain the lower bound value of the <attr>

max_value:

Dell specific class extensions

On Dell systems the following additional attributes are available:

dell_modifier:

A file that can be read to obtain attribute-level dependency rule. It says an attribute X will become read-only or suppressed, if/if-not attribute Y is configured.

modifier rules can be in following format:

[ReadOnlyIf:<attribute>=<value>]
[ReadOnlyIfNot:<attribute>=<value>]
[SuppressIf:<attribute>=<value>]
[SuppressIfNot:<attribute>=<value>]

For example:

AutoOnFri/dell_modifier has value,
        [SuppressIfNot:AutoOn=SelectDays]

This means AutoOnFri will be suppressed in BIOS setup if AutoOn attribute is not “SelectDays” and its value will not be effective through sysfs until this rule is met.

Enumeration attributes also support the following:

dell_value_modifier:

A file that can be read to obtain value-level dependency. This file is similar to dell_modifier but here, an attribute’s current value will be forcefully changed based dependent attributes value.

dell_value_modifier rules can be in following format:

<value>[ForceIf:<attribute>=<value>]
<value>[ForceIfNot:<attribute>=<value>]

For example:

LegacyOrom/dell_value_modifier has value:
        Disabled[ForceIf:SecureBoot=Enabled]

This means LegacyOrom’s current value will be forced to “Disabled” in BIOS setup if SecureBoot is Enabled and its value will not be effective through sysfs until this rule is met.

HP specific class extensions

On HP systems the following additional attributes are available:

“ordered-list”-type specific properties:

elements:

A file that can be read to obtain the possible list of values of the <attr>. Values are separated using semi-colon (;) and listed according to their priority. An element listed first has the highest priority. Writing the list in a different order to current_value alters the priority order for the particular attribute.

  1. Check if admin password is set. If yes, follow session method for password management as briefed under authentication section above.

  2. Before setting any attribute, check if it has any modifiers or value_modifiers. If yes, incorporate them and then modify attribute.

Drivers may emit a CHANGE uevent when this value changes and userspace may check it again.

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/attributes/reset_bios

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

This attribute can be used to reset the BIOS Configuration. Specifically, it tells which type of reset BIOS configuration is being requested on the host.

Reading from it returns a list of supported options encoded as:

  • ‘builtinsafe’ (Built in safe configuration profile)

  • ‘lastknowngood’ (Last known good saved configuration profile)

  • ‘factory’ (Default factory settings configuration profile)

  • ‘custom’ (Custom saved configuration profile)

The currently selected option is printed in square brackets as shown below:

# echo "factory" > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/device/attributes/reset_bios
# cat /sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/device/attributes/reset_bios
builtinsafe lastknowngood [factory] custom

Note that any changes to this attribute requires a reboot for changes to take effect.

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/attributes/save_settings

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

On Lenovo platforms there is a limitation in the number of times an attribute can be saved. This is an architectural limitation and it limits the number of attributes that can be modified to 48. A solution for this is instead of the attribute being saved after every modification, to allow a user to bulk set the attributes, and then trigger a final save. This allows unlimited attributes.

Read the attribute to check what save mode is enabled (single or bulk). E.g: # cat /sys/class/firmware-attributes/thinklmi/attributes/save_settings single

Write the attribute with ‘bulk’ to enable bulk save mode. Write the attribute with ‘single’ to enable saving, after every attribute set. The default setting is single mode. E.g: # echo bulk > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/thinklmi/attributes/save_settings

When in bulk mode write ‘save’ to trigger a save of all currently modified attributes. Note, once a save has been triggered, in bulk mode, attributes can no longer be set and will return a permissions error. This is to prevent users hitting the 48+ save limitation (which requires entering the BIOS to clear the error condition) E.g: # echo save > /sys/class/firmware-attributes/thinklmi/attributes/save_settings

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/authentication/

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

Devices support various authentication mechanisms which can be exposed as a separate configuration object.

For example a “BIOS Admin” password and “System” Password can be set, reset or cleared using these attributes.

  • An “Admin” password is used for preventing modification to the BIOS settings.

  • A “System” password is required to boot a machine.

Change in any of these two authentication methods will also generate an uevent KOBJ_CHANGE.

is_enabled:

A file that can be read to obtain a 0/1 flag to see if <attr> authentication is enabled. This attribute is mandatory.

role:

The type of authentication used. This attribute is mandatory.

Known types:
bios-admin:

Representing BIOS administrator password

power-on:

Representing a password required to use the system

system-mgmt:

Representing System Management password. See Lenovo extensions section for details

HDD:

Representing HDD password See Lenovo extensions section for details

NVMe:

Representing NVMe password See Lenovo extensions section for details

mechanism:

The means of authentication. This attribute is mandatory. Only supported type currently is “password”.

max_password_length:

A file that can be read to obtain the maximum length of the Password

min_password_length:

A file that can be read to obtain the minimum length of the Password

current_password:

A write only value used for privileged access such as setting attributes when a system or admin password is set or resetting to a new password

This attribute is mandatory when mechanism == “password”.

new_password:

A write only value that when used in tandem with current_password will reset a system or admin password.

Note, password management is session specific. If Admin password is set, same password must be written into current_password file (required for password-validation) and must be cleared once the session is over. For example:

echo "password" > current_password
echo "disabled" > TouchScreen/current_value
echo "" > current_password

Drivers may emit a CHANGE uevent when a password is set or unset userspace may check it again.

On Dell, Lenovo and HP systems, if Admin password is set, then all BIOS attributes require password validation. On Lenovo systems if you change the Admin password the new password is not active until the next boot.

Lenovo specific class extensions

On Lenovo systems the following additional settings are available:

role: system-mgmt This gives the same authority as the bios-admin password to control

security related features. The authorities allocated can be set via the BIOS menu SMP Access Control Policy

role: HDD & NVMe This password is used to unlock access to the drive at boot. Note see

‘level’ and ‘index’ extensions below.

lenovo_encoding:

The encoding method that is used. This can be either “ascii” or “scancode”. Default is set to “ascii”

lenovo_kbdlang:

The keyboard language method that is used. This is generally a two char code (e.g. “us”, “fr”, “gr”) and may vary per platform. Default is set to “us”

level:

Available for HDD and NVMe authentication to set ‘user’ or ‘master’ privilege level. If only the user password is configured then this should be used to unlock the drive at boot. If both master and user passwords are set then either can be used. If a master password is set a user password is required. This attribute defaults to ‘user’ level

index:

Used with HDD and NVME authentication to set the drive index that is being referenced (e.g hdd1, hdd2 etc) This attribute defaults to device 1.

certificate, signature, save_signature:

These attributes are used for certificate based authentication. This is used in conjunction with a signing server as an alternative to password based authentication. The user writes to the attribute(s) with a BASE64 encoded string obtained from the signing server. The attributes can be displayed to check the stored value.

Some usage examples:

Installing a certificate to enable feature:

echo "supervisor password" > authentication/Admin/current_password
echo "signed certificate" > authentication/Admin/certificate

Updating the installed certificate:

echo "signature" > authentication/Admin/signature
echo "signed certificate" > authentication/Admin/certificate

Removing the installed certificate:

echo "signature" > authentication/Admin/signature
echo "" > authentication/Admin/certificate

Changing a BIOS setting:

echo "signature" > authentication/Admin/signature
echo "save signature" > authentication/Admin/save_signature
echo Enable > attribute/PasswordBeep/current_value

You cannot enable certificate authentication if a supervisor password has not been set. Clearing the certificate results in no bios-admin authentication method being configured allowing anyone to make changes. After any of these operations the system must reboot for the changes to take effect.

certificate_thumbprint:

Read only attribute used to display the MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 thumbprints for the certificate installed in the BIOS.

certificate_to_password:

Write only attribute used to switch from certificate based authentication back to password based. Usage:

echo "signature" > authentication/Admin/signature
echo "password" > authentication/Admin/certificate_to_password

HP specific class extensions

On HP systems the following additional settings are available:

role: enhanced-bios-auth:

This role is specific to Secure Platform Management (SPM) attribute. It requires configuring an endorsement (kek) and signing certificate (sk).

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/authentication/SPM/kek

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

‘kek’ Key-Encryption-Key is a write-only file that can be used to configure the RSA public key that will be used by the BIOS to verify signatures when setting the signing key. When written, the bytes should correspond to the KEK certificate (x509 .DER format containing an OU). The size of the certificate must be less than or equal to 4095 bytes.

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/authentication/SPM/sk

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

‘sk’ Signature Key is a write-only file that can be used to configure the RSA public key that will be used by the BIOS to verify signatures when configuring BIOS settings and security features. When written, the bytes should correspond to the modulus of the public key. The exponent is assumed to be 0x10001.

/sys/class/firmware-attributes/*/authentication/SPM/status

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware-attributes

‘status’ is a read-only file that returns ASCII text in JSON format reporting the status information.

“State”: “not provisioned | provisioned | provisioning in progress”, “Version”: “Major.Minor”, “Nonce”: <16-bit unsigned number display in base 10>, “FeaturesInUse”: <16-bit unsigned number display in base 10>, “EndorsementKeyMod”: “<256 bytes in base64>”, “SigningKeyMod”: “<256 bytes in base64>”

/sys/class/firmware/.../cancel

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

Write-only. For firmware uploads, write a “1” to this file to request that the transfer of firmware data to the lower-level device be canceled. This request will be rejected (EBUSY) if the update cannot be canceled (e.g. a FLASH write is in progress) or (ENODEV) if there is no firmware update in progress.

/sys/class/firmware/.../data

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

The data sysfs file is used for firmware-fallback and for firmware uploads. Cat a firmware image to this sysfs file after you echo 1 to the loading sysfs file. When the firmware image write is complete, echo 0 to the loading sysfs file. This sequence will signal the completion of the firmware write and signal the lower-level driver that the firmware data is available.

/sys/class/firmware/.../error

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

Read-only. Returns a string describing a failed firmware upload. This string will be in the form of <STATUS>:<ERROR>, where <STATUS> will be one of the status strings described for the status sysfs file and <ERROR> will be one of the following: “hw-error”, “timeout”, “user-abort”, “device-busy”, “invalid-file-size”, “read-write-error”, “flash-wearout”. The error sysfs file is only meaningful when the current firmware upload status is “idle”. If this file is read while a firmware transfer is in progress, then the read will fail with EBUSY.

/sys/class/firmware/.../loading

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

The loading sysfs file is used for both firmware-fallback and for firmware uploads. Echo 1 onto the loading file to indicate you are writing a firmware file to the data sysfs node. Echo -1 onto this file to abort the data write or echo 0 onto this file to indicate that the write is complete. For firmware uploads, the zero value also triggers the transfer of the firmware data to the lower-level device driver.

/sys/class/firmware/.../remaining_size

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

Read-only. For firmware upload, this file contains the size of the firmware data that remains to be transferred to the lower-level device driver. The size value is initialized to the full size of the firmware image that was previously written to the data sysfs file. This value is periodically updated during the “transferring” phase of the firmware upload. Format: “%u”.

/sys/class/firmware/.../status

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

Read-only. Returns a string describing the current status of a firmware upload. The string will be one of the following: idle, “receiving”, “preparing”, “transferring”, “programming”.

/sys/class/firmware/.../timeout

Defined on file sysfs-class-firmware

This file supports the timeout mechanism for firmware fallback. This file has no affect on firmware uploads. For more information on timeouts please see the documentation for firmware fallback.

Defined on file sysfs-class-fpga-manager

Name of low level fpga manager driver.

/sys/class/fpga_manager/<fpga>/state

Defined on file sysfs-class-fpga-manager

Read fpga manager state as a string. The intent is to provide enough detail that if something goes wrong during FPGA programming (something that the driver can’t fix) then userspace can know, i.e. if the firmware request fails, that could be due to not being able to find the firmware file.

This is a superset of FPGA states and fpga manager driver states. The fpga manager driver is walking through these steps to get the FPGA into a known operating state. It’s a sequence, though some steps may get skipped. Valid FPGA states will vary by manufacturer; this is a superset.

  • unknown = can’t determine state

  • power off = FPGA power is off

  • power up = FPGA reports power is up

  • reset = FPGA held in reset state

  • firmware request = firmware class request in progress

  • firmware request error = firmware request failed

  • write init = preparing FPGA for programming

  • write init error = Error while preparing FPGA for programming

  • write = FPGA ready to receive image data

  • write error = Error while programming

  • write complete = Doing post programming steps

  • write complete error = Error while doing post programming

  • operating = FPGA is programmed and operating

/sys/class/fpga_manager/<fpga>/status

Defined on file sysfs-class-fpga-manager

Read fpga manager status as a string. If FPGA programming operation fails, it could be caused by crc error or incompatible bitstream image.

  • reconfig operation error - invalid operations detected by

    reconfiguration hardware. e.g. start reconfiguration with errors not cleared

  • reconfig CRC error - CRC error detected by

    reconfiguration hardware.

  • reconfig incompatible image - reconfiguration image is

    incompatible with hardware

RO

Voltage measured on the chip pin.

Actual voltage depends on the scaling resistors on the motherboard, as recommended in the chip datasheet.

This varies by chip and by motherboard. Because of this variation, values are generally NOT scaled by the chip driver, and must be done by the application. However, some drivers (notably lm87 and via686a) do scale, because of internal resistors built into a chip. These drivers will output the actual voltage. Rule of thumb: drivers should report the voltage values at the “pins” of the chip.

/sys/class/leds/<led>/brightness

Defined on file sysfs-class-led

Set the brightness of the LED.

Most LEDs don’t have hardware brightness support, so will just be turned on for non-zero brightness settings.

Note

For multicolor LEDs, writing to this file will update all LEDs within the group to a calculated percentage of what each color LED intensity is set to.

The percentage is calculated for each grouped LED via the equation below:

led_brightness = brightness * multi_intensity/max_brightness

For additional details please refer to Multicolor LED handling under Linux.

The value is between 0 and /sys/class/leds/<led>/max_brightness.

Writing 0 to this file clears active trigger.

Writing non-zero to this file while trigger is active changes the top brightness trigger is going to use.

Defined on file sysfs-class-mtd

/sys/class/mtd/mtdX/bbt_blocks

Defined on file sysfs-class-mtd

The number of blocks that are marked as reserved, if any, in this partition. These are typically used to store the in-flash bad block table (BBT).

/sys/class/mtd/mtdX/bitflip_threshold

Defined on file sysfs-class-mtd

This allows the user to examine and adjust the criteria by which mtd returns -EUCLEAN from mtd_read() and mtd_read_oob(). If the maximum number of bit errors that were corrected on any single region comprising an ecc step (as reported by the driver) equals or exceeds this value, -EUCLEAN is returned. Otherwise, absent an error, 0 is returned. Higher layers (e.g., UBI) use this return code as an indication that an erase block may be degrading and should be scrutinized as a candidate for being marked as bad.

The initial value may be specified by the flash device driver. If not, then the default value is ecc_strength.

The introduction of this feature brings a subtle change to the meaning of the -EUCLEAN return code. Previously, it was interpreted to mean simply “one or more bit errors were corrected”. Its new interpretation can be phrased as “a dangerously high number of bit errors were corrected on one or more regions comprising an ecc step”. The precise definition of “dangerously high” can be adjusted by the user with bitflip_threshold. Users are discouraged from doing this, however, unless they know what they are doing and have intimate knowledge of the properties of their device. Broadly speaking, bitflip_threshold should be low enough to detect genuine erase block degradation, but high enough to avoid the consequences of a persistent return value of -EUCLEAN on devices where sticky bitflips occur. Note that if bitflip_threshold exceeds ecc_strength, -EUCLEAN is never returned by the read operations. Conversely, if bitflip_threshold is zero, -EUCLEAN is always returned, absent a hard error.

This is generally applicable only to NAND flash devices with ECC capability. It is ignored on devices lacking ECC capability; i.e., devices for which ecc_strength is zero.

/sys/class/mtd/mtdX/corrected_bits

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

OUT NTB Maximum Size

/sys/class/net/<iface>/cdc_ncm/min_tx_pkt

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

The driver will pad NCM Transfer Blocks (NTBs) longer than this to tx_max, allowing the device to receive tx_max sized frames with no terminating short packet. NTBs shorter than this limit are transmitted as-is, without any padding, and are terminated with a short USB packet.

Padding to tx_max allows the driver to transmit NTBs back-to-back without any interleaving short USB packets. This reduces the number of short packet interrupts in the device, and represents a tradeoff between USB bus bandwidth and device DMA optimization.

Set to 0 to pad all frames. Set greater than tx_max to disable all padding.

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

Boolean attribute showing the status of the “NDP to end” quirk. Defaults to ‘N’, except for devices already known to need it enabled.

The “NDP to end” quirk makes the driver place the NDP (the packet index table) after the payload. The NCM specification does not mandate this, but some devices are known to be more restrictive. Write ‘Y’ to this attribute for temporary testing of a suspect device failing to work with the default driver settings.

A device entry should be added to the driver if this quirk is found to be required.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/cdc_ncm/rx_max

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

The maximum NTB size for RX. Cannot exceed the maximum value supported by the device. Must allow at least one max sized datagram plus headers.

The actual limits are device dependent. See dwNtbInMaxSize.

Note: Some devices will silently ignore changes to this value, resulting in oversized NTBs and corresponding framing errors.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/cdc_ncm/tx_max

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

The maximum NTB size for TX. Cannot exceed the maximum value supported by the device. Must allow at least one max sized datagram plus headers.

The actual limits are device dependent. See dwNtbOutMaxSize.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/cdc_ncm/tx_timer_usecs

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-cdc_ncm

Datagram aggregation timeout in µs. The driver will wait up to 3 times this timeout for more datagrams to aggregate before transmitting an NTB frame.

Valid range: 5 to 4000000

Set to 0 to disable aggregation.

Note: some device drivers started to use ‘dev_id’ for this purpose since long before 3.15 and have not adopted the new attribute ever since. To query the port number, some tools look exclusively at ‘dev_port’, while others only consult ‘dev_id’. If a network device has multiple client adapter ports as described in the previous paragraph and does not set this attribute to its port number, it’s a kernel bug.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/dormant

Defined on file sysfs-class-net

Indicates whether the interface is in dormant state. Possible values are: 0: interface is not dormant 1: interface is dormant

This attribute can be used by supplicant software to signal that the device is not usable unless some supplicant-based authentication is performed (e.g: 802.1x). ‘link_mode’ attribute will also reflect the dormant state.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/dsa/tagging

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-peak_usb

PEAK PCAN-USB devices support user-configurable CAN channel identifiers. Contrary to a USB serial number, these identifiers are writable and can be set per CAN interface. This means that if a USB device exports multiple CAN interfaces, each of them can be assigned a unique channel ID. This attribute provides read-only access to the currently configured value of the channel identifier. Depending on the device type, the identifier has a length of 8 or 32 bit. The value read from this attribute is always an 8 digit 32 bit hexadecimal value in big endian format. If the device only supports an 8 bit identifier, the upper 24 bit of the value are set to zero.

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-qmi

Unsigned integer.

Write a number ranging from 1 to 254 to delete a previously created qmap mux based network device.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/qmi/pass_through

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-qmi

Boolean. Default: ‘N’

Set this to ‘Y’ to enable ‘pass-through’ mode, allowing packets in MAP format to be passed on to the stack.

Normally the rmnet driver (CONFIG_RMNET) is then used to process and demultiplex these packets.

‘Pass-through’ mode can be enabled when the device is in ‘raw-ip’ mode only.

/sys/class/net/<iface>/qmi/raw_ip

Defined on file sysfs-class-net-qmi

Boolean. Default: ‘N’

Set this to ‘Y’ to change the network device link framing from ‘802.3’ to ‘raw-ip’.

The netdev will change to reflect the link framing mode. The netdev is an ordinary ethernet device in ‘802.3’ mode, and the driver expects to exchange frames with an ethernet header over the USB link. The netdev is a headerless p-t-p device in ‘raw-ip’ mode, and the driver expects to echange IPv4 or IPv6 packets without any L2 header over the USB link.

Userspace is in full control of firmware configuration through the delegation of the QMI protocol. Userspace is responsible for coordination of driver and firmware link framing mode, changing this setting to ‘Y’ if the firmware is configured for ‘raw-ip’ mode.

(RW) If bio write queue size is higher as this mark, do no longer accept bio write requests from the block layer and wait till the pktcdvd device has processed enough bio’s so that bio write queue size is below congestion off mark. A value of <= 0 disables congestion control.

Example:

To use the pktcdvd sysfs interface directly, you can do:

# create a new pktcdvd device mapped to /dev/hdc
echo "22:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/add
cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map
# assuming device pktcdvd0 was created, look at stat's
cat /sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0/stat/kb_written
# print the device id of the mapped block device
fgrep pktcdvd0 /sys/class/pktcdvd/device_map
# remove device, using pktcdvd0 device id   253:0
echo "253:0" >/sys/class/pktcdvd/remove

Defined on file sysfs-class-rapidio

On-chip RapidIO controllers and PCIe-to-RapidIO bridges (referenced as “Master Port” or “mport”) are presented in sysfs as the special class of devices: “rapidio_port”. The /sys/class/rapidio_port subdirectory contains individual subdirectories named as “rapidioN” where N = mport ID registered with RapidIO subsystem.

NOTE: An mport ID is not a RapidIO destination ID assigned to a given local mport device.

/sys/class/rapidio_port/rapidio<N>/port_destid

Defined on file sysfs-class-rapidio

(RO) reports RapidIO destination ID assigned to the given RapidIO mport device. If value 0xFFFFFFFF is returned this means that no valid destination ID have been assigned to the mport (yet). Normally, before enumeration/discovery have been executed only fabric enumerating mports have a valid destination ID assigned to them using “hdid=...” rapidio module parameter.

After enumeration or discovery was performed for a given mport device, the corresponding subdirectory will also contain subdirectories for each child RapidIO device connected to the mport.

The example below shows mport device subdirectory with several child RapidIO devices attached to it:

Defined on file sysfs-class-rc

Sets the scancode filter expected value.

Use in combination with /sys/class/rc/rcN/filter_mask to set the expected value of the bits set in the filter mask. If the hardware supports it then scancodes which do not match the filter will be ignored. Otherwise the write will fail with an error.

This value may be reset to 0 if the current protocol is altered.

/sys/class/rc/rc<N>/filter_mask

Defined on file sysfs-class-rc

If the hardware supports it and wakeup_filter_mask is not 0 then scancodes which match the filter will wake the system from e.g. suspend to RAM or power off.

Otherwise the write will fail with an error.

This value may be reset to 0 if the wakeup protocol is altered.

/sys/class/rc/rc<N>/wakeup_filter_mask

Defined on file sysfs-class-rc

Sets the scancode wakeup filter mask of bits to compare.

Use in combination with /sys/class/rc/rcN/wakeup_filter to set the bits of the scancode which should be compared against the expected value to trigger a system wake event.

If the hardware supports it and wakeup_filter_mask is not 0 then scancodes which match the filter will wake the system from e.g. suspend to RAM or power off.

Otherwise the write will fail with an error.

This value may be reset to 0 if the wakeup protocol is altered.

/sys/class/rc/rc<N>/wakeup_protocols

Defined on file sysfs-class-rc

Reading this file returns a list of available protocols to use for the wakeup filter, something like:

"rc-5 nec nec-x rc-6-0 rc-6-6a-24 [rc-6-6a-32] rc-6-mce"

Note that protocol variants are listed, so “nec”, “sony”, “rc-5”, “rc-6” have their different bit length encodings listed if available.

The enabled wakeup protocol is shown in [] brackets.

Only one protocol can be selected at a time.

Writing “proto” will use “proto” for wakeup events.

Writing “none” will disable wakeup.

Write fails with EINVAL if an invalid protocol combination or unknown protocol name is used, or if wakeup is not supported by the hardware.

Defined on file sysfs-class-rnbd-client

Provide information about RNBD-client. All sysfs files that are not read-only provide the usage information on read:

Example:

# cat /sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/map_device

> Usage: echo "sessname=<name of the rtrs session> path=<[srcaddr,]dstaddr>
> [path=<[srcaddr,]dstaddr>] device_path=<full path on remote side>

/sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/devices/

Defined on file sysfs-class-rnbd-client

For each device mapped on the client a new symbolic link is created as /sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/devices/<device_id>@<session_name>, which points to the block device created by rnbd (/sys/block/rnbd<N>/). The <device_id> of each device is created as follows:

  • If the ‘device_path’ provided during mapping contains slashes (“/”), they are replaced by exclamation mark (“!”) and used as as the <device_id>. Otherwise, the <device_id> will be the same as the “device_path” provided.

/sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/map_device

Defined on file sysfs-class-rnbd-client

Expected format is the following:

sessname=<name of the rtrs session>
path=<[srcaddr,]dstaddr> [path=<[srcaddr,]dstaddr> ...]
device_path=<full path on remote side>
[access_mode=<ro|rw|migration>]

Where:

sessname:

accepts a string not bigger than 256 chars, which identifies a given session on the client and on the server. I.e. “clt_hostname-srv_hostname” could be a natural choice.

path:

describes a connection between the client and the server by specifying destination and, when required, the source address. The addresses are to be provided in the following format:

ip:<IPv6>
ip:<IPv4>
gid:<GID>

for example:

path=ip:10.0.0.66

The single addr is treated as the destination. The connection will be established to this server from any client IP address.

path=ip:10.0.0.66,ip:10.0.1.66

First addr is the source address and the second is the destination.

If multiple “path=” options are specified multiple connection will be established and data will be sent according to the selected multipath policy (see RTRS mp_policy sysfs entry description).

device_path:

Path to the block device on the server side. Path is specified relative to the directory on server side configured in the ‘dev_search_path’ module parameter of the rnbd_server. The rnbd_server prepends the <device_path> received from client with <dev_search_path> and tries to open the <dev_search_path>/<device_path> block device. On success, a /dev/rnbd<N> device file, a /sys/block/rnbd<N>/ directory and an entry in /sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/devices will be created.

If ‘dev_search_path’ contains ‘%SESSNAME%’, then each session can have different devices namespace, e.g. server was configured with the following parameter “dev_search_path=/run/rnbd-devs/%SESSNAME%”, client has this string “sessname=blya device_path=sda”, then server will try to open: /run/rnbd-devs/blya/sda.

access_mode:

the access_mode parameter specifies if the device is to be mapped as “ro” read-only or “rw” read-write. The server allows a device to be exported in rw mode only once. The “migration” access mode has to be specified if a second mapping in read-write mode is desired.

By default “rw” is used.

nr_poll_queues

specifies the number of poll-mode queues. If the IO has HIPRI flag, the block-layer will send the IO via the poll-mode queue. For fast network and device the polling is faster than interrupt-base IO handling because it saves time for context switching, switching to another process, handling the interrupt and switching back to the issuing process.

Set -1 if you want to set it as the number of CPUs By default rnbd client creates only irq-mode queues.

NOTICE: MUST make a unique session for a device using the poll-mode queues.

Exit Codes:

If the device is already mapped it will fail with EEXIST. If the input has an invalid format it will return EINVAL. If the device path cannot be found on the server, it will fail with ENOENT.

Finding device file after mapping

After mapping, the device file can be found by: o The symlink /sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/devices/<device_id>@<session_name> points to /sys/block/<dev-name>. The last part of the symlink destination is the same as the device name. By extracting the last part of the path the path to the device /dev/<dev-name> can be build.

  • /dev/block/$(cat /sys/class/rnbd-client/ctl/devices/<device_id>@<session_name>/dev)

How to find the <device_id> of the device is described on the next section.

Defined on file sysfs-class-scsi_host

(RW) Allows access to AHCI EM (enclosure management) buffer directly if the host supports EM.

For eg. the AHCI driver supports SGPIO EM messages but the SATA/AHCI specs do not define the SGPIO message format of the EM buffer. Different hardware(HW) vendors may have different definitions. With the em_buffer attribute, this issue can be solved by allowing HW vendors to provide userland drivers and tools for their SGPIO initiators.

/sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/isci_id

Defined on file sysfs-class-scsi_host

This file contains the enumerated host ID for the Intel SCU controller. The Intel(R) C600 Series Chipset SATA/SAS Storage Control Unit embeds up to two 4-port controllers in a single PCI device. The controllers are enumerated in order which usually means the lowest number scsi_host corresponds with the first controller, but this association is not guaranteed. The ‘isci_id’ attribute unambiguously identifies the controller index: ‘0’ for the first controller, ‘1’ for the second.

Defined on file sysfs-class-scsi_host

(RW) This parameter allows the user to read and set the link (interface) power management.

There are four possible options:

min_power: Tell the controller to try to make the link use the least possible power when possible. This may sacrifice some performance due to increased latency when coming out of lower power states.

max_performance: Generally, this means no power management. Tell the controller to have performance be a priority over power management.

medium_power: Tell the controller to enter a lower power state when possible, but do not enter the lowest power state, thus improving latency over min_power setting.

med_power_with_dipm: Identical to the existing medium_power setting except that it enables dipm (device initiated power management) on top, which makes it match the Windows IRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) driver settings. This setting is also close to min_power, except that:

  1. It does not use host-initiated slumber mode, but it does allow device-initiated slumber

  2. It does not enable low power device sleep mode (DevSlp).

/sys/class/watchdog/watchdog1/access_cs0

Defined on file sysfs-class-watchdog

It is a read/write file. This attribute exists only if the system has booted from the alternate flash chip due to expiration of a watchdog timer of AST2400/AST2500 when alternate boot function was enabled with ‘aspeed,alt-boot’ devicetree option for that watchdog or with an appropriate h/w strapping (for WDT2 only).

At alternate flash the ‘access_cs0’ sysfs node provides:

ast2400:

a way to get access to the primary SPI flash chip at CS0 after booting from the alternate chip at CS1.

ast2500:

a way to restore the normal address mapping from (CS0->CS1, CS1->CS0) to (CS0->CS0, CS1->CS1).

Clearing the boot code selection and timeout counter also resets to the initial state the chip select line mapping. When the SoC is in normal mapping state (i.e. booted from CS0), clearing those bits does nothing for both versions of the SoC. For alternate boot mode (booted from CS1 due to wdt2 expiration) the behavior differs as described above.

This option can be used with wdt2 (watchdog1) only.

When read, the current status of the boot code selection is shown. When written with any non-zero value, it clears the boot code selection and the timeout counter, which results in chipselect reset for AST2400/AST2500.

/sys/dev

Defined on file sysfs-dev

The /sys/dev tree provides a method to look up the sysfs path for a device using the information returned from stat(2). There are two directories, ‘block’ and ‘char’, beneath /sys/dev containing symbolic links with names of the form “<major>:<minor>”. These links point to the corresponding sysfs path for the given device.

Example:

$ readlink /sys/dev/block/8:32
../../block/sdc

Entries in /sys/dev/char and /sys/dev/block will be dynamically created and destroyed as devices enter and leave the system.

Users: mdadm <linux-raid@vger.kernel.org>

/sys/devices

Defined on file sysfs-devices

The /sys/devices tree contains a snapshot of the internal state of the kernel device tree. Devices will be added and removed dynamically as the machine runs, and between different kernel versions, the layout of the devices within this tree will change.

Please do not rely on the format of this tree because of this. If a program wishes to find different things in the tree, please use the /sys/class structure and rely on the symlinks there to point to the proper location within the /sys/devices tree of the individual devices. Or rely on the uevent messages to notify programs of devices being added and removed from this tree to find the location of those devices.

Note that sometimes not all devices along the directory chain will have emitted uevent messages, so userspace programs must be able to handle such occurrences.

Enhanced area is a new feature defined in eMMC4.4 standard. eMMC4.4 or later card can support such feature. This kind of area can help to improve the card performance. If the feature is enabled, this attribute will indicate the start address of enhanced data area. If not, this attribute will be -EINVAL. Unit Byte. Format decimal.

/sys/devices/.../mmc_host/mmcX/mmcX:XXXX/enhanced_area_size

Defined on file sysfs-devices-mmc

Enhanced area is a new feature defined in eMMC4.4 standard. eMMC4.4 or later card can support such feature. This kind of area can help to improve the card performance. If the feature is enabled, this attribute will indicate the size of enhanced data area. If not, this attribute will be -EINVAL. Unit KByte. Format decimal.

/sys/devices/.../online

Defined on file sysfs-devices-online

The /sys/devices/.../online attribute is only present for devices whose bus types provide .online() and .offline() callbacks. The number read from it (0 or 1) reflects the value of the device’s ‘offline’ field. If that number is 1 and ‘0’ (or ‘n’, or ‘N’) is written to this file, the device bus type’s .offline() callback is executed for the device and (if successful) its ‘offline’ field is updated accordingly. In turn, if that number is 0 and ‘1’ (or ‘y’, or ‘Y’) is written to this file, the device bus type’s .online() callback is executed for the device and (if successful) its ‘offline’ field is updated as appropriate.

After a successful execution of the bus type’s .offline() callback the device cannot be used for any purpose until either it is removed (i.e. device_del() is called for it), or its bus type’s .online() is executed successfully.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

This directory contains information on physical location of the device connection point with respect to the system’s housing.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location/dock

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

“Yes” if the device connection point resides in a docking station or a port replicator. “No” otherwise.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location/horizontal_position

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

Describes horizontal position of the device connection point on the panel surface.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location/lid

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

“Yes” if the device connection point resides on the lid of laptop system. “No” otherwise.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location/panel

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

Describes which panel surface of the system’s housing the device connection point resides on.

/sys/devices/.../physical_location/vertical_position

Defined on file sysfs-devices-physical_location

Describes vertical position of the device connection point on the panel surface.

/sys/devices/.../power/

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power directory contains attributes allowing the user space to check and modify some power management related properties of given device.

/sys/devices/.../power/async

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../async attribute allows the user space to enable or diasble the device’s suspend and resume callbacks to be executed asynchronously (ie. in separate threads, in parallel with the main suspend/resume thread) during system-wide power transitions (eg. suspend to RAM, hibernation).

All devices have one of the following two values for the power/async file:

  • “enabledn” to permit the asynchronous suspend/resume;

  • “disabledn” to forbid it;

The value of this attribute may be changed by writing either “enabled”, or “disabled” to it.

It generally is unsafe to permit the asynchronous suspend/resume of a device unless it is certain that all of the PM dependencies of the device are known to the PM core. However, for some devices this attribute is set to “enabled” by bus type code or device drivers and in that cases it should be safe to leave the default value.

/sys/devices/.../power/autosuspend_delay_ms

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/autosuspend_delay_ms attribute contains the autosuspend delay value (in milliseconds). Some drivers do not want their device to suspend as soon as it becomes idle at run time; they want the device to remain inactive for a certain minimum period of time first. That period is called the autosuspend delay. Negative values will prevent the device from being suspended at run time (similar to writing “on” to the power/control attribute). Values >= 1000 will cause the autosuspend timer expiration to be rounded up to the nearest second.

Not all drivers support this attribute. If it isn’t supported, attempts to read or write it will yield I/O errors.

/sys/devices/.../power/control

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/control attribute allows the user space to control the run-time power management of the device.

All devices have one of the following two values for the power/control file:

  • “auton” to allow the device to be power managed at run time;

  • “onn” to prevent the device from being power managed;

The default for all devices is “auto”, which means that they may be subject to automatic power management, depending on their drivers. Changing this attribute to “on” prevents the driver from power managing the device at run time. Doing that while the device is suspended causes it to be woken up.

/sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_latency_tolerance_us

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_latency_tolerance_us attribute contains the PM QoS active state latency tolerance limit for the given device in microseconds. That is the maximum memory access latency the device can suffer without any visible adverse effects on user space functionality. If that value is the string “any”, the latency does not matter to user space at all, but hardware should not be allowed to set the latency tolerance for the device automatically.

Reading “auto” from this file means that the maximum memory access latency for the device may be determined automatically by the hardware as needed. Writing “auto” to it allows the hardware to be switched to this mode if there are no other latency tolerance requirements from the kernel side.

This attribute is only present if the feature controlled by it is supported by the hardware.

This attribute has no effect on runtime suspend and resume of devices and on system-wide suspend/resume and hibernation.

/sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_no_power_off

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_no_power_off attribute is used for manipulating the PM QoS “no power off” flag. If set, this flag indicates to the kernel that power should not be removed entirely from the device.

Not all drivers support this attribute. If it isn’t supported, it is not present.

This attribute has no effect on system-wide suspend/resume and hibernation.

/sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_resume_latency_us

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/pm_qos_resume_latency_us attribute contains the PM QoS resume latency limit for the given device, which is the maximum allowed time it can take to resume the device, after it has been suspended at run time, from a resume request to the moment the device will be ready to process I/O, in microseconds. If it is equal to 0, however, this means that the PM QoS resume latency may be arbitrary and the special value “n/a” means that user space cannot accept any resume latency at all for the given device.

Not all drivers support this attribute. If it isn’t supported, it is not present.

This attribute has no effect on system-wide suspend/resume and hibernation.

/sys/devices/.../power/runtime_active_kids

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

Reports the runtime PM children usage count of a device, or 0 if the children will be ignored.

/sys/devices/.../power/runtime_active_time

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

/sys/devices/.../power/runtime_status

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/runtime_status attribute contains the current runtime PM status of the device, which may be “suspended”, “suspending”, “resuming”, “active”, “error” (fatal error), or “unsupported” (runtime PM is disabled).

/sys/devices/.../power/runtime_suspended_time

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

Reports total time that the device has been suspended. Used for runtime PM statistics.

/sys/devices/.../power/runtime_usage

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

Reports the runtime PM usage count of a device.

/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup attribute allows the user space to check if the device is enabled to wake up the system from sleep states, such as the memory sleep state (suspend to RAM) and hibernation (suspend to disk), and to enable or disable it to do that as desired.

Some devices support “wakeup” events, which are hardware signals used to activate the system from a sleep state. Such devices have one of the following two values for the sysfs power/wakeup file:

  • “enabledn” to issue the events;

  • “disabledn” not to do so;

In that cases the user space can change the setting represented by the contents of this file by writing either “enabled”, or “disabled” to it.

For the devices that are not capable of generating system wakeup events this file is not present. In that case the device cannot be enabled to wake up the system from sleep states.

/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup_abort_count

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_abort_count attribute contains the number of times the processing of a wakeup event associated with the device might have aborted system transition into a sleep state in progress.

/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup_last_time_ms

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power

The /sys/devices/.../wakeup_last_time_ms attribute contains the value of the monotonic clock corresponding to the time of signaling the last wakeup event associated with the device, in milliseconds. This attribute is read-only. If the device is not enabled to wake up the system from sleep states, this attribute is not present.

/sys/devices/.../power_resources_D0/

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power_resources_D0

The /sys/devices/.../power_resources_D0/ directory is only present for device objects representing ACPI device nodes that use ACPI power resources for power management.

If present, it contains symbolic links to device directories representing ACPI power resources that need to be turned on for the given device node to be in ACPI power state D0. The names of the links are the same as the names of the directories they point to.

/sys/devices/.../power_resources_D1/

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power_resources_D1

The /sys/devices/.../power_resources_D1/ directory is only present for device objects representing ACPI device nodes that use ACPI power resources for power management and support ACPI power state D1.

If present, it contains symbolic links to device directories representing ACPI power resources that need to be turned on for the given device node to be able to signal wakeup. The names of the links are the same as the names of the directories they point to.

/sys/devices/.../power_state

Defined on file sysfs-devices-power_state

The /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute is only present for device objects representing ACPI device nodes that provide power management methods.

If present, it contains a string representing the current ACPI power state of the given device node. Its possible values, “D0”, “D1”, “D2”, “D3hot”, and “D3cold”, reflect the power state names defined by the ACPI specification (ACPI 4 and above).

If the device node uses shared ACPI power resources, this state determines a list of power resources required not to be turned off. However, some power resources needed by the device node in higher-power (lower-number) states may also be ON because of some other devices using them at the moment.

This attribute is read-only.

/sys/devices/.../real_power_state

Defined on file sysfs-devices-real_power_state

The /sys/devices/.../real_power_state attribute is only present for device objects representing ACPI device nodes that provide power management methods and use ACPI power resources for power management.

If present, it contains a string representing the real ACPI power state of the given device node as returned by the _PSC control method or inferred from the configuration of power resources. Its possible values, “D0”, “D1”, “D2”, “D3hot”, and “D3cold”, reflect the power state names defined by the ACPI specification (ACPI 4 and above).

In some situations the value of this attribute may be different from the value of the /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute for the same device object. If that happens, some shared power resources used by the device node are only ON because of some other devices using them at the moment.

This attribute is read-only.

/sys/devices/.../removable

Defined on file sysfs-devices-removable

Information about whether a given device can be removed from the platform by the user. This is determined by its subsystem in a bus / platform-specific way. This attribute is only present for devices that can support determining such information:

“removable”

device can be removed from the platform by the user

“fixed”

device is fixed to the platform / cannot be removed by the user.

“unknown”

The information is unavailable / cannot be deduced.

Currently this is only supported by USB (which infers the information from a combination of hub descriptor bits and platform-specific data such as ACPI) and PCI (which gets this from ACPI / device tree).

/sys/devices/.../resource_in_use

Defined on file sysfs-devices-resource_in_use

The /sys/devices/.../resource_in_use attribute is only present for device objects representing ACPI power resources.

If present, it contains a number (0 or 1) representing the current status of the given power resource (0 means that the resource is not in use and therefore it has been turned off).

This attribute is read-only.

/sys/devices/.../software_node/

Defined on file sysfs-devices-software_node

This directory contains the details about the device that are assigned in kernel (i.e. software), as opposed to the firmware_node directory which contains the details that are assigned for the device in firmware. The main attributes in the directory will show the properties the device has, and the relationship it has to some of the other devices.

/sys/devices/.../state_synced

Defined on file sysfs-devices-state_synced

The /sys/devices/.../state_synced attribute is only present for devices whose bus types or driver provides the .sync_state() callback. The number read from it (0 or 1) reflects the value of the device’s ‘state_synced’ field. A value of 0 means the .sync_state() callback hasn’t been called yet. A value of 1 means the .sync_state() callback has been called.

Generally, if a device has sync_state() support and has some of the resources it provides enabled at the time the kernel starts (Eg: enabled by hardware reset or bootloader or anything that run before the kernel starts), then it’ll keep those resources enabled and in a state that’s compatible with the state they were in at the start of the kernel. The device will stop doing this only when the sync_state() callback has been called -- which happens only when all its consumer devices are registered and have probed successfully. Resources that were left disabled at the time the kernel starts are not affected or limited in any way by sync_state() callbacks.

Writing “1” to this file will force a call to the device’s sync_state() function if it hasn’t been called already. The sync_state() call happens independent of the state of the consumer devices.

/sys/devices/.../sun

Defined on file sysfs-devices-sun

The file contains a Slot-unique ID which provided by the _SUN method in the ACPI namespace. The value is written in Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification as follows:

“The _SUN value is required to be unique among the slots of the same type. It is also recommended that this number match the slot number printed on the physical slot whenever possible.”

So reading the sysfs file, we can identify a physical position of the slot in the system.

/sys/devices/.../supplier:<supplier>

Defined on file sysfs-devices-supplier

The /sys/devices/.../supplier:<supplier> are symlinks to device links where this device is the consumer. <supplier> denotes the name of the supplier in that device link and is of the form bus:device name. There can be zero or more of these symlinks for a given device.

/sys/devices/.../waiting_for_supplier

Defined on file sysfs-devices-waiting_for_supplier

The /sys/devices/.../waiting_for_supplier attribute is only present when fw_devlink kernel command line option is enabled and is set to something stricter than “permissive”. It is removed once a device probes successfully (because the information is no longer relevant). The number read from it (0 or 1) reflects whether the device is waiting for one or more suppliers to be added and then linked to using device links before the device can probe.

A value of 0 means the device is not waiting for any suppliers to be added before it can probe. A value of 1 means the device is waiting for one or more suppliers to be added before it can probe.

/sys/devices/../../gisb_arb_timeout

Defined on file sysfs-platform-brcmstb-gisb-arb

/sys/devices/platform/at91_can/net/<iface>/mb0_id

Defined on file sysfs-platform-at91

Value representing the can_id of mailbox 0.

Default: 0x7ff (standard frame)

Due to a chip bug (errata 50.2.6.3 & 50.3.5.3 in “AT91SAM9263 Preliminary 6249H-ATARM-27-Jul-09”) the contents of mailbox 0 may be send under certain conditions (even if disabled or in rx mode).

The workaround in the errata suggests not to use the mailbox and load it with an unused identifier.

In order to use an extended can_id add the CAN_EFF_FLAG (0x80000000U) to the can_id. Example:

  • standard id 0x7ff:

    echo 0x7ff      > /sys/class/net/can0/mb0_id
    
  • extended id 0x1fffffff:

    echo 0x9fffffff > /sys/class/net/can0/mb0_id

/sys/devices/platform/kim/baud_rate

Defined on file sysfs-platform-kim

The maximum reliable baud-rate the host can support. Different platforms tend to have different high-speed UART configurations, so the baud-rate needs to be set locally and also sent across to the WL128x via a HCI-VS command. The entry is read and made use by the user-space daemon when the ldisc install is requested.

/sys/devices/platform/kim/dev_name

Defined on file sysfs-platform-kim

Name of the UART device at which the WL128x chip is connected. example: “/dev/ttyS0”.

/sys/devices/socX

Defined on file sysfs-devices-soc

The /sys/devices/ directory contains a sub-directory for each System-on-Chip (SoC) device on a running platform. Information regarding each SoC can be obtained by reading sysfs files. This functionality is only available if implemented by the platform.

The directory created for each SoC will also house information about devices which are commonly contained in /sys/devices/platform. It has been agreed that if an SoC device exists, its supported devices would be better suited to appear as children of that SoC.

/sys/devices/socX/family

Defined on file sysfs-devices-soc

Read-only attribute common to all SoCs. Contains SoC family name (e.g. DB8500).

On many of ARM based silicon with SMCCC v1.2+ compliant firmware this will contain the JEDEC JEP106 manufacturer’s identification code. The format is “jep106:XXYY” where XX is identity code and YY is continuation code.

This manufacturer’s identification code is defined by one or more eight (8) bit fields, each consisting of seven (7) data bits plus one (1) odd parity bit. It is a single field, limiting the possible number of vendors to 126. To expand the maximum number of identification codes, a continuation scheme has been defined.

The specified mechanism is that an identity code of 0x7F represents the “continuation code” and implies the presence of an additional identity code field, and this mechanism may be extended to multiple continuation codes followed by the manufacturer’s identity code.

For example, ARM has identity code 0x7F 0x7F 0x7F 0x7F 0x3B, which is code 0x3B on the fifth ‘page’. This is shortened as JEP106 identity code of 0x3B and a continuation code of 0x4 to represent the four continuation codes preceding the identity code.

On many of ARM based silicon with SMCCC v1.2+ compliant firmware this will contain the SOC ID appended to the family attribute to ensure there is no conflict in this namespace across various vendors. The format is “jep106:XXYY:ZZZZ” where XX is identity code, YY is continuation code and ZZZZ is the SOC ID.

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index*/id

Defined on file sysfs-devices-system-cpu

Cache id

The id provides a unique number for a specific instance of a cache of a particular type. E.g. there may be a level 3 unified cache on each socket in a server and we may assign them ids 0, 1, 2, ...

Note that id value can be non-contiguous. E.g. level 1 caches typically exist per core, but there may not be a power of two cores on a socket, so these caches may be numbered 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, ...

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache/index3/cache_disable_{0,1}

Defined on file sysfs-devices-system-cpu

Disable L3 cache indices

These files exist in every CPU’s cache/index3 directory. Each cache_disable_{0,1} file corresponds to one disable slot which can be used to disable a cache index. Reading from these files on a processor with this functionality will return the currently disabled index for that node. There is one L3 structure per node, or per internal node on MCM machines. Writing a valid index to one of these files will cause the specified cache index to be disabled.

All AMD processors with L3 caches provide this functionality. For details, see BKDGs at https://www.amd.com/en/support/tech-docs?keyword=bios+kernel

Read/Write attribute file that controls memory scrubbing. The scrubbing rate used by the memory controller is set by writing a minimum bandwidth in bytes/sec to the attribute file. The rate will be translated to an internal value that gives at least the specified rate. Reading the file will return the actual scrubbing rate employed. If configuration fails or memory scrubbing is not implemented, the value of the attribute file will be -1.

/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc*/seconds_since_reset

/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheckX/

Defined on file sysfs-mce

(X = CPU number)

Machine checks report internal hardware error conditions detected by the CPU. Uncorrected errors typically cause a machine check (often with panic), corrected ones cause a machine check log entry.

For more details about the x86 machine check architecture see the Intel and AMD architecture manuals from their developer websites.

For more details about the architecture see http://one.firstfloor.org/~andi/mce.pdf

Each CPU has its own directory.

/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheckX/bank<Y>

Defined on file sysfs-mce

(Y bank number)

64bit Hex bitmask enabling/disabling specific subevents for bank Y.

When a bit in the bitmask is zero then the respective subevent will not be reported.

By default all events are enabled.

Note that BIOS maintain another mask to disable specific events per bank. This is not visible here

/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheckX/check_interval

Defined on file sysfs-mce

The entries appear for each CPU, but they are truly shared between all CPUs.

How often to poll for corrected machine check errors, in seconds (Note output is hexadecimal). Default 5 minutes. When the poller finds MCEs it triggers an exponential speedup (poll more often) on the polling interval. When the poller stops finding MCEs, it triggers an exponential backoff (poll less often) on the polling interval. The check_interval variable is both the initial and maximum polling interval. 0 means no polling for corrected machine check errors (but some corrected errors might be still reported in other ways)

/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheckX/cmci_disabled

Defined on file sysfs-mce

Disables the CMCI feature.

/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheckX/dont_log_ce

/sys/devices/system/memory

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

The /sys/devices/system/memory contains a snapshot of the internal state of the kernel memory blocks. Files could be added or removed dynamically to represent hot-add/remove operations.

Users: hotplug memory add/remove tools http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/wikis/display/LinuxP/powerpc-utils

/sys/devices/system/memory/crash_hotplug

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

(RO) indicates whether or not the kernel directly supports modifying the crash elfcorehdr for memory hot un/plug and/or on/offline changes.

/sys/devices/system/memory/hard_offline_page

Defined on file sysfs-memory-page-offline

Hard-offline the memory page containing the physical address written into this file. Input is a hex number specifying the physical address of the page. The kernel will then attempt to hard-offline the page, by trying to drop the page or killing any owner or triggering IO errors if needed. Note this may kill any processes owning the page. The kernel will avoid to access this page assuming it’s poisoned by the hardware.

The offlining is done in kernel specific granularity. Normally it’s the base page size of the kernel, but this might change.

Return value is the size of the number, or a error when the offlining failed. Reading the file is not allowed.

/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/phys_device

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/phys_device is read-only; it is a legacy interface only ever used on s390x to expose the covered storage increment.

/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable is a legacy interface used to indicated whether a memory block is likely to be offlineable or not. Newer kernel versions return “1” if and only if the kernel supports memory offlining.

Users: hotplug memory remove tools http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/wikis/display/LinuxP/powerpc-utils lsmem/chmem part of util-linux

/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state is read-write. When read, it returns the online/offline state of the memory block. When written, root can toggle the online/offline state of a memory block using the following commands:

# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state
# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/state

On newer kernel versions, advanced states can be specified when onlining to select a target zone: “online_movable” selects the movable zone. “online_kernel” selects the applicable kernel zone (DMA, DMA32, or Normal). However, after successfully setting one of the advanced states, reading the file will return “online”; the zone information can be obtained via “valid_zones” instead.

While onlining is unlikely to fail, there are no guarantees that offlining will succeed. Offlining is more likely to succeed if “valid_zones” indicates “Movable”.

Users: hotplug memory remove tools http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/wikis/display/LinuxP/powerpc-utils

/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/valid_zones

Defined on file sysfs-devices-memory

The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/valid_zones is read-only.

For online memory blocks, it returns in which zone memory provided by a memory block is managed. If multiple zones apply (not applicable for hotplugged memory), “None” is returned and the memory block cannot be offlined.

For offline memory blocks, it returns by which zone memory provided by a memory block can be managed when onlining. The first returned zone (“default”) will be used when setting the state of an offline memory block to “online”. Only one of the kernel zones (DMA, DMA32, Normal) is applicable for a single memory block.

/sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page

Defined on file sysfs-memory-page-offline

Soft-offline the memory page containing the physical address written into this file. Input is a hex number specifying the physical address of the page. The kernel will then attempt to soft-offline it, by moving the contents elsewhere or dropping it if possible. The kernel will then be placed on the bad page list and never be reused.

The offlining is done in kernel specific granularity. Normally it’s the base page size of the kernel, but this might change.

The page must be still accessible, not poisoned. The kernel will never kill anything for this, but rather fail the offline. Return value is the size of the number, or a error when the offlining failed. Reading the file is not allowed.

/sys/devices/uncore_iio_x/dieX

Defined on file sysfs-devices-mapping

Each IIO stack (PCIe root port) has its own IIO PMON block, so each dieX file (where X is die number) holds “Segment:Root Bus” for PCIe root port, which can be monitored by that IIO PMON block. For example, on 4-die Xeon platform with up to 6 IIO stacks per die and, therefore, 6 IIO PMON blocks per die, the mapping of IIO PMON block 0 exposes as the following:

$ ls /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die*
-r--r--r-- /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die0
-r--r--r-- /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die1
-r--r--r-- /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die2
-r--r--r-- /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die3

$ tail /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die*
==> /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die0 <==

==> /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die2 <==
0000:80
==> /sys/devices/uncore_iio_0/die3 <==

Which means:

IIO PMU 0 on die 0 belongs to PCI RP on bus 0x00, domain 0x0000
IIO PMU 0 on die 1 belongs to PCI RP on bus 0x40, domain 0x0000
IIO PMU 0 on die 2 belongs to PCI RP on bus 0x80, domain 0x0000
IIO PMU 0 on die 3 belongs to PCI RP on bus 0xc0, domain 0x0000

/sys/devices/uncore_upi_x/dieX

Defined on file sysfs-devices-mapping

Each /sys/devices/uncore_upi_X/dieY file holds “upi_Z,die_W” value that means UPI link number X on die Y is connected to UPI link Z on die W and this link between sockets can be monitored by UPI PMON block. For example, 4-die Sapphire Rapids platform has the following UPI 0 topology:

# tail /sys/devices/uncore_upi_0/die*
==> /sys/devices/uncore_upi_0/die0 <==
upi_1,die_1

==> /sys/devices/uncore_upi_0/die2 <==
upi_1,die_3
==> /sys/devices/uncore_upi_0/die3 <==
upi_0,die_1

Which means:

UPI link 0 on die 0 is connected to UPI link 1 on die 1
UPI link 0 on die 1 is connected to UPI link 0 on die 3
UPI link 0 on die 2 is connected to UPI link 1 on die 3
UPI link 0 on die 3 is connected to UPI link 0 on die 1

/sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-acpi

There are separate hotplug profiles for different classes of devices supported by ACPI, such as containers, memory modules, processors, PCI root bridges etc. A hotplug profile for a given class of devices is a collection of settings defining the way that class of devices will be handled by the ACPI core hotplug code. Those profiles are represented in sysfs as subdirectories of /sys/firmware/acpi/hotplug/.

The following setting is available to user space for each hotplug profile:

enabled:

If set, the ACPI core will handle notifications of hotplug events associated with the given class of devices and will allow those devices to be ejected with the help of the _EJ0 control method. Unsetting it effectively disables hotplug for the corresponding class of devices.

The value of the above attribute is an integer number: 1 (set) or 0 (unset). Attempts to write any other values to it will cause -EINVAL to be returned.

/sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-acpi

All ACPI interrupts are handled via a single IRQ, the System Control Interrupt (SCI), which appears as “acpi” in /proc/interrupts.

However, one of the main functions of ACPI is to make the platform understand random hardware without special driver support. So while the SCI handles a few well known (fixed feature) interrupts sources, such as the power button, it can also handle a variable number of a “General Purpose Events” (GPE).

A GPE vectors to a specified handler in AML, which can do a anything the BIOS writer wants from OS context. GPE 0x12, for example, would vector to a level or edge handler called _L12 or _E12. The handler may do its business and return. Or the handler may send send a Notify event to a Linux device driver registered on an ACPI device, such as a battery, or a processor.

To figure out where all the SCI’s are coming from, /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts contains a file listing every possible source, and the count of how many times it has triggered:

error

an interrupt that can’t be accounted for above.

invalid

it’s either a GPE or a Fixed Event that doesn’t have an event handler.

disable

the GPE/Fixed Event is valid but disabled.

enable

the GPE/Fixed Event is valid and enabled.

Root has permission to clear any of these counters. Eg.:

# echo 0 > gpe11

All counters can be cleared by clearing the total “sci”:

# echo 0 > sci

None of these counters has an effect on the function of the system, they are simply statistics.

Besides this, user can also write specific strings to these files to enable/disable/clear ACPI interrupts in user space, which can be used to debug some ACPI interrupt storm issues.

Note that only writing to VALID GPE/Fixed Event is allowed, i.e. user can only change the status of runtime GPE and Fixed Event with event handler installed.

Let’s take power button fixed event for example, please kill acpid and other user space applications so that the machine won’t shutdown when pressing the power button:

# cat ff_pwr_btn

# press the power button for 3 times;
# cat ff_pwr_btn

# press the power button for 3 times;
# cat ff_pwr_btn

# echo enable > ff_pwr_btn
# cat ff_pwr_btn

/*
 * this is because the status bit is set even if the enable
 * bit is cleared, and it triggers an ACPI fixed event when

/sys/firmware/devicetree/*

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-ofw

When using OpenFirmware or a Flattened Device Tree to enumerate hardware, the device tree structure will be exposed in this directory.

It is possible for multiple device-tree directories to exist. Some device drivers use a separate detached device tree which have no attachment to the system tree and will appear in a different subdirectory under /sys/firmware/devicetree.

Userspace must not use the /sys/firmware/devicetree/base path directly, but instead should follow /proc/device-tree symlink. It is possible that the absolute path will change in the future, but the symlink is the stable ABI.

The /proc/device-tree symlink replaces the devicetree /proc filesystem support, and has largely the same semantics and should be compatible with existing userspace.

The contents of /sys/firmware/devicetree/ is a hierarchy of directories, one per device tree node. The directory name is the resolved path component name (node name plus address). Properties are represented as files in the directory. The contents of each file is the exact binary data from the device tree.

/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-dmi-entries

Many machines’ firmware (x86 and arm64) export DMI / SMBIOS tables to the operating system. Getting at this information is often valuable to userland, especially in cases where there are OEM extensions used.

The kernel itself does not rely on the majority of the information in these tables being correct. It equally cannot ensure that the data as exported to userland is without error either.

DMI is structured as a large table of entries, where each entry has a common header indicating the type and length of the entry, as well as a firmware-provided ‘handle’ that is supposed to be unique amongst all entries.

Some entries are required by the specification, but many others are optional. In general though, users should never expect to find a specific entry type on their system unless they know for certain what their firmware is doing. Machine to machine experiences will vary.

Multiple entries of the same type are allowed. In order to handle these duplicate entry types, each entry is assigned by the operating system an ‘instance’, which is derived from an entry type’s ordinal position. That is to say, if there are ‘N’ multiple entries with the same type ‘T’ in the DMI tables (adjacent or spread apart, it doesn’t matter), they will be represented in sysfs as entries “T-0” through “T-(N-1)”:

Example entry directories:

/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-0
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-1
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-2
/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/17-3
...

Instance numbers are used in lieu of the firmware assigned entry handles as the kernel itself makes no guarantees that handles as exported are unique, and there are likely firmware images that get this wrong in the wild.

Each DMI entry in sysfs has the common header values exported as attributes:

handle

The 16bit ‘handle’ that is assigned to this entry by the firmware. This handle may be referred to by other entries.

length

The length of the entry, as presented in the entry itself. Note that this is _not the total count of bytes associated with the entry. This value represents the length of the “formatted” portion of the entry. This “formatted” region is sometimes followed by the “unformatted” region composed of nul terminated strings, with termination signalled by a two nul characters in series.

raw

The raw bytes of the entry. This includes the “formatted” portion of the entry, the “unformatted” strings portion of the entry, and the two terminating nul characters.

type

The type of the entry. This value is the same as found in the directory name. It indicates how the rest of the entry should be interpreted.

instance

The instance ordinal of the entry for the given type. This value is the same as found in the parent directory name.

position

The ordinal position (zero-based) of the entry within the entirety of the DMI entry table.

Entry Specialization

Some entry types may have other information available in sysfs. Not all types are specialized.

Type 15 - System Event Log

This entry allows the firmware to export a log of events the system has taken. This information is typically backed by nvram, but the implementation details are abstracted by this table. This entry’s data is exported in the directory:

/sys/firmware/dmi/entries/15-0/system_event_log

and has the following attributes (documented in the SMBIOS / DMI specification under “System Event Log (Type 15)”:

  • area_length

  • header_start_offset

  • data_start_offset

  • access_method

  • status

  • change_token

  • access_method_address

  • header_format

  • per_log_type_descriptor_length

  • type_descriptors_supported_count

As well, the kernel exports the binary attribute:

raw_event_log

The raw binary bits of the event log as described by the DMI entry.

/sys/firmware/dmi/tables/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-dmi-tables

The firmware provides DMI structures as a packed list of data referenced by a SMBIOS table entry point. The SMBIOS entry point contains general information, like SMBIOS version, DMI table size, etc. The structure, content and size of SMBIOS entry point is dependent on SMBIOS version. The format of SMBIOS entry point and DMI structures can be read in SMBIOS specification.

The dmi/tables provides raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI tables through sysfs as an alternative to utilities reading them from /dev/mem. The raw SMBIOS entry point and DMI table are presented as binary attributes and are accessible via:

/sys/firmware/dmi/tables/smbios_entry_point /sys/firmware/dmi/tables/DMI

The complete DMI information can be obtained using these two tables.

/sys/firmware/efi/fw_vendor

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-efi

It shows the physical address of firmware vendor field in the EFI system table.

Users: Kexec

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-efi

It shows the physical address of runtime service table entry in the EFI system table.

Users: Kexec

/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-efi-runtime-map

Switching efi runtime services to virtual mode requires that all efi memory ranges which have the runtime attribute bit set to be mapped to virtual addresses.

The efi runtime services can only be switched to virtual mode once without rebooting. The kexec kernel must maintain the same physical to virtual address mappings as the first kernel. The mappings are exported to sysfs so userspace tools can reassemble them and pass them into the kexec kernel.

/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/ is the directory the kernel exports that information in.

subdirectories are named with the number of the memory range:

/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/0
/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/1
/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/2
/sys/firmware/efi/runtime-map/3
...

Each subdirectory contains five files:

attribute

The attributes of the memory range.

num_pages

The size of the memory range in pages.

phys_addr

The physical address of the memory range.

type

The type of the memory range.

virt_addr

The virtual address of the memory range.

Above values are all hexadecimal numbers with the ‘0x’ prefix.

Users: Kexec

/sys/firmware/efi/systab

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-efi

Displays the physical addresses of all EFI Configuration Tables found via the EFI System Table. The order in which the tables are printed forms an ABI and newer versions are always printed first, i.e. ACPI20 comes before ACPI.

Users: dmidecode

/sys/firmware/efi/tables/rci2

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-efi

Displays the content of the Runtime Configuration Interface Table version 2 on Dell EMC PowerEdge systems in binary format

Users: It is used by Dell EMC OpenManage Server Administrator tool to populate BIOS setup page.

/sys/firmware/fdt

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-ofw

Exports the FDT blob that was passed to the kernel by the bootloader. This allows userland applications such as kexec to access the raw binary. This blob is also useful when debugging since it contains any changes made to the blob by the bootloader.

The fact that this node does not reside under /sys/firmware/device-tree is deliberate: FDT is also used on arm64 UEFI/ACPI systems to communicate just the UEFI and ACPI entry points, but the FDT is never unflattened and used to configure the system.

A CRC32 checksum is calculated over the entire FDT blob, and verified at late_initcall time. The sysfs entry is instantiated only if the checksum is valid, i.e., if the FDT blob has not been modified in the mean time. Otherwise, a warning is printed.

Users: kexec, debugging

/sys/firmware/gsmi

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-gsmi

Some servers used internally at Google have firmware that provides callback functionality via explicit SMI triggers. Some of the callbacks are similar to those provided by the EFI runtime services page, but due to historical reasons this different entry-point has been used.

The gsmi driver implements the kernel’s abstraction for these firmware callbacks. Currently, this functionality is limited to handling the system event log and getting access to EFI-style variables stored in nvram.

Layout:

/sys/firmware/gsmi/vars:

This directory has the same layout (and underlying implementation as /sys/firmware/efi/vars. See Documentation/ABI/*/sysfs-firmware-efi-vars for more information on how to interact with this structure.

/sys/firmware/gsmi/append_to_eventlog - write-only:

This file takes a binary blob and passes it onto the firmware to be timestamped and appended to the system eventlog. The binary format is interpreted by the firmware and may change from platform to platform. The only kernel-enforced requirement is that the blob be prefixed with a 32bit host-endian type used as part of the firmware call.

/sys/firmware/gsmi/clear_config - write-only:

Writing any value to this file will cause the entire firmware configuration to be reset to “factory defaults”. Callers should assume that a reboot is required for the configuration to be cleared.

/sys/firmware/gsmi/clear_eventlog - write-only:

This file is used to clear out a portion/the whole of the system event log. Values written should be values between 1 and 100 inclusive (in ASCII) representing the fraction of the log to clear. Not all platforms support fractional clearing though, and this writes to this file will error out if the firmware doesn’t like your submitted fraction.

Callers should assume that a reboot is needed for this operation to complete.

/sys/firmware/ibft/acpi_header

Defined on file sysfs-ibft

The /sys/firmware/ibft/acpi_header directory will contain files that expose the SIGNATURE, OEM_ID, and OEM_TABLE_ID fields of the acpi table header of the iBFT structure. This will allow for identification of the creator of the table which is useful in determining quirks associated with some adapters when used in hardware vs software iscsi initiator mode.

/sys/firmware/ibft/ethernetX

Defined on file sysfs-ibft

The /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernetX directory will contain files that expose the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table NIC data. Usually this contains the IP address, MAC, and gateway of the NIC.

/sys/firmware/ibft/initiator

Defined on file sysfs-ibft

The /sys/firmware/ibft/initiator directory will contain files that expose the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table initiator data. Usually this contains the Initiator name.

/sys/firmware/ibft/targetX

Defined on file sysfs-ibft

The /sys/firmware/ibft/targetX directory will contain files that expose the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table target data. Usually this contains the target’s IP address, boot LUN, target name, and what NIC it is associated with. It can also contain the CHAP name (and password), the reverse CHAP name (and password)

/sys/firmware/initrd

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-initrd

When the kernel was booted with an initrd and the “retain_initrd” option is set on the kernel command line, /sys/firmware/initrd contains the contents of the initrd that the kernel was booted with.

/sys/firmware/lefi/boardinfo

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-lefi-boardinfo

Get mainboard and BIOS info easily on the Loongson platform, this is useful to point out the current used mainboard type and BIOS version when there exists problems related with hardware or firmware.

The related structures are already defined in the interface specification about firmware and kernel which are common requirement and specific for Loongson64, so only add a new boardinfo.c file in arch/mips/loongson64.

For example:

[loongson@linux ~]$ cat /sys/firmware/lefi/boardinfo Board Info Manufacturer : LEMOTE Board Name : LEMOTE-LS3A4000-7A1000-1w-V01-pc Family : LOONGSON3

BIOS Info Vendor : Kunlun Version : Kunlun-A1901-V4.1.3-20200414093938 ROM Size : 4 KB Release Date : 2020-04-14

By the way, using dmidecode command can get the similar info if there exists SMBIOS in firmware, but the fact is that there is no SMBIOS on some machines, we can see nothing when execute dmidecode, like this:

[root@linux loongson]# dmidecode # dmidecode 2.12 # No SMBIOS nor DMI entry point found, sorry.

/sys/firmware/log

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-log

The /sys/firmware/log is a binary file that represents a read-only copy of the firmware’s log if one is available.

/sys/firmware/memmap/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-memmap

On all platforms, the firmware provides a memory map which the kernel reads. The resources from that memory map are registered in the kernel resource tree and exposed to userspace via /proc/iomem (together with other resources).

However, on most architectures that firmware-provided memory map is modified afterwards by the kernel itself, either because the kernel merges that memory map with other information or just because the user overwrites that memory map via command line.

kexec needs the raw firmware-provided memory map to setup the parameter segment of the kernel that should be booted with kexec. Also, the raw memory map is useful for debugging. For that reason, /sys/firmware/memmap is an interface that provides the raw memory map to userspace.

The structure is as follows: Under /sys/firmware/memmap there are subdirectories with the number of the entry as their name:

/sys/firmware/memmap/0
/sys/firmware/memmap/1
/sys/firmware/memmap/2
/sys/firmware/memmap/3
...

The maximum depends on the number of memory map entries provided by the firmware. The order is just the order that the firmware provides.

Each directory contains three files:

start

The start address (as hexadecimal number with the ‘0x’ prefix).

end

The end address, inclusive (regardless whether the firmware provides inclusive or exclusive ranges).

type

Type of the entry as string. See below for a list of valid types.

So, for example:

/sys/firmware/memmap/0/start
/sys/firmware/memmap/0/end
/sys/firmware/memmap/0/type
/sys/firmware/memmap/1/start
...

Currently following types exist:

  • System RAM

  • ACPI Tables

  • ACPI Non-volatile Storage

  • Unusable memory

  • Persistent Memory (legacy)

  • Persistent Memory

  • Soft Reserved

  • reserved

Following shell snippet can be used to display that memory map in a human-readable format:

#!/bin/bash
cd /sys/firmware/memmap
for dir in * ; do
    start=$(cat $dir/start)
    end=$(cat $dir/end)
    type=$(cat $dir/type)
    printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
done

/sys/firmware/opal/powercap

This directory provides powercap information. It contains below sysfs attributes:

  • powercap-min : This file provides the minimum possible powercap in Watt units

  • powercap-max : This file provides the maximum possible powercap in Watt units

  • powercap-current : This file provides the current powercap set on the system. Writing to this file creates a request for setting a new-powercap. The powercap requested must be between powercap-min and powercap-max.

/sys/firmware/opal/psr

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-opal-psr

Power-Shift-Ratio directory for Powernv P9 servers

/sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-qemu_fw_cfg

Several different architectures supported by QEMU (x86, arm, sun4*, ppc/mac) are provisioned with a firmware configuration (fw_cfg) device, originally intended as a way for the host to provide configuration data to the guest firmware. Starting with QEMU v2.4, arbitrary fw_cfg file entries may be specified by the user on the command line, which makes fw_cfg additionally useful as an out-of-band, asynchronous mechanism for providing configuration data to the guest userspace.

The authoritative guest-side hardware interface documentation to the fw_cfg device can be found in “docs/specs/fw_cfg.rst” in the QEMU source tree, or online at: https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/specs/fw_cfg.html

SysFS fw_cfg Interface

The fw_cfg sysfs interface described in this document is only intended to display discoverable blobs (i.e., those registered with the file directory), as there is no way to determine the presence or size of “legacy” blobs (with selector keys between 0x0002 and 0x0018) programmatically.

All fw_cfg information is shown under:

The only legacy blob displayed is the fw_cfg device revision:

/sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/rev

Discoverable fw_cfg blobs by selector key

All discoverable blobs listed in the fw_cfg file directory are displayed as entries named after their unique selector key value, e.g.:

/sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/by_key/32 /sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/by_key/33 /sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/by_key/34 ...

Each such fw_cfg sysfs entry has the following values exported as attributes:

name

The 56-byte nul-terminated ASCII string used as the blob’s ‘file name’ in the fw_cfg directory.

size

The length of the blob, as given in the fw_cfg directory.

key

The value of the blob’s selector key as given in the fw_cfg directory. This value is the same as used in the parent directory name.

raw

The raw bytes of the blob, obtained by selecting the entry via the control register, and reading a number of bytes equal to the blob size from the data register.

Listing fw_cfg blobs by file name

While the fw_cfg device does not impose any specific naming convention on the blobs registered in the file directory, QEMU developers have traditionally used path name semantics to give each blob a descriptive name. For example:

"bootorder"
"genroms/kvmvapic.bin"
"etc/e820"
"etc/boot-fail-wait"
"etc/system-states"
"etc/table-loader"
"etc/acpi/rsdp"
"etc/acpi/tables"
"etc/smbios/smbios-tables"
"etc/smbios/smbios-anchor"
...

In addition to the listing by unique selector key described above, the fw_cfg sysfs driver also attempts to build a tree of directories matching the path name components of fw_cfg blob names, ending in symlinks to the by_key entry for each “basename”, as illustrated below (assume current directory is /sys/firmware):

qemu_fw_cfg/by_name/bootorder -> ../by_key/38
qemu_fw_cfg/by_name/etc/e820 -> ../../by_key/35
qemu_fw_cfg/by_name/etc/acpi/rsdp -> ../../../by_key/41
...

Construction of the directory tree and symlinks is done on a “best-effort” basis, as there is no guarantee that components of fw_cfg blob names are always “well behaved”. I.e., there is the possibility that a symlink (basename) will conflict with a dirname component of another fw_cfg blob, in which case the creation of the offending /sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/by_name entry will be skipped.

The authoritative list of entries will continue to be found under the /sys/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg/by_key directory.

/sys/firmware/secvar

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

This directory is created if the POWER firmware supports OS secureboot, thereby secure variables. It exposes interface for reading/writing the secure variables

/sys/firmware/secvar/config

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

This optional directory contains read-only config attributes as defined by the secure variable implementation. All data is in ASCII format. The directory is only created if the backing implementation provides variables to populate it, which at present is only PLPKS on the pseries platform.

/sys/firmware/secvar/config/max_object_size

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

Maximum allowed size of objects in the keystore in bytes, represented in ASCII decimal format.

This is not necessarily the same as the max size that can be written to an update file as writes can contain more than object data, you should use the size of the update file for that purpose.

Currently only provided by PLPKS on the pseries platform.

/sys/firmware/secvar/config/signed_update_algorithms

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

Bitmask of flags indicating which algorithms the hypervisor supports for signed update of objects, represented as a 16 byte hexadecimal ASCII string. Consult the hypervisor documentation for what these flags mean.

Currently only provided by PLPKS on the pseries platform.

/sys/firmware/secvar/config/supported_policies

Config version as reported by the hypervisor in ASCII decimal format.

Currently only provided by PLPKS on the pseries platform.

/sys/firmware/secvar/format

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

A string indicating which backend is in use by the firmware. This determines the format of the variable and the accepted format of variable updates.

On powernv/OPAL, this value is provided by the OPAL firmware and is expected to be “ibm,edk2-compat-v1”.

On pseries/PLPKS, this is generated by the kernel based on the version number in the SB_VERSION variable in the keystore, and has the form “ibm,plpks-sb-v<version>”, or “ibm,plpks-sb-unknown” if there is no SB_VERSION variable.

/sys/firmware/secvar/vars

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

This directory lists all the secure variables that are supported by the firmware.

/sys/firmware/secvar/vars/<variable name>

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

Each secure variable is represented as a directory named as <variable_name>. The variable name is unique and is in ASCII representation. The data and size can be determined by reading their respective attribute files.

/sys/firmware/secvar/vars/<variable_name>/data

Defined on file sysfs-secvar

/sys/firmware/sgi_uv/

Defined on file sysfs-firmware-sgi_uv

The /sys/firmware/sgi_uv directory contains information about the UV platform.

Under that directory are a number of read-only attributes:

archtype
hub_type
hubless
partition_id
coherence_id
uv_type

The archtype entry contains the UV architecture type that is used to select arch-dependent addresses and features. It can be set via the OEM_ID in the ACPI MADT table or by UVsystab entry both passed from UV BIOS.

The hub_type entry is used to select the type of hub which is similar to uv_type but encoded in a binary format. Include the file uv_hub.h to get the definitions.

The hubless entry basically is present and set only if there is no hub. In this case the hub_type entry is not present.

The partition_id entry contains the partition id. UV systems can be partitioned into multiple physical machines, which each partition running a unique copy of the operating system. Each partition will have a unique partition id.

The coherence_id entry contains the coherence id. A partitioned UV system can have one or more coherence domains. The coherence id indicates which coherence domain this partition is in.

The uv_type entry contains the hub revision number. This value can be used to identify the UV system version:

"0.*" = Hubless UV ('*' is subtype)
"3.0" = UV2
"5.0" = UV3
"7.0" = UV4
"7.1" = UV4a
"9.0" = UV5

The /sys/firmware/sgi_uv directory also contains two directories:

hubs/
pcibuses/

The hubs directory contains a number of hub objects, each representing a UV Hub visible to the BIOS. Each hub object’s name is appended by a unique ordinal value (ex. /sys/firmware/sgi_uv/hubs/hub_5)

Each hub object directory contains a number of read-only attributes:

cnode
location
name
nasid
shared
this_partition

The cnode entry contains the cnode number of the corresponding hub. If a cnode value is not applicable, the value returned will be -1.

The location entry contains the location string of the corresponding hub. This value is used to physically identify a hub within a system.

The name entry contains the name of the corresponding hub. This name can be two variants:

"UVHub x.x" = A 'node' ASIC, connecting a CPU to the interconnect
fabric. The 'x.x' value represents the ASIC revision.
(ex. 'UVHub 5.0')

"NLxRouter" = A 'router ASIC, only connecting other ASICs to
the interconnect fabric. The 'x' value representing
the fabric technology version. (ex. 'NL8Router')

The nasid entry contains the nasid number of the corresponding hub. If a nasid value is not applicable, the value returned will be -1.

The shared entry contains a boolean value describing whether the corresponding hub is shared between system partitions.

The this_partition entry contains a boolean value describing whether the corresponding hub is local to the current partition.

Each hub object directory also contains a number of port objects, each representing a fabric port on the corresponding hub. A port object’s name is appended by a unique ordinal value (ex. /sys/firmware/sgi_uv/hubs/hub_5/port_3)

Each port object directory contains a number of read-only attributes:

conn_hub
conn_port

The conn_hub entry contains a value representing the unique ordinal value of the hub on the other end of the fabric cable plugged into the port. If the port is disconnected, the value returned will be -1.

The conn_port entry contains a value representing the unique ordinal value of the port on the other end of the fabric cable plugged into the port. If the port is disconnected, the value returned will be -1.

Ex:
A value of ‘3’ is read from:

/sys/firmware/sgi_uv/hubs/hub_5/port_3/conn_hub

and a value of ‘6’ is read from:

/sys/firmware/sgi_uv/hubs/hub_5/port_3/conn_port

representing that this port is connected to:

/sys/firmware/sgi_uv/hubs/hub_3/port_6

The pcibuses directory contains a number of PCI bus objects. Each PCI bus object’s name is appended by its PCI bus address. (ex. pcibus_0003:80)

Each pcibus object has a number of possible read-only attributes:

type
location
slot
ppb_addr
iio_stack

The type entry contains a value describing the type of IO at the corresponding PCI bus address. Known possible values across all UV versions are:

BASE IO
PCIe IO
PCIe SLOT
NODE IO
Riser
PPB

The location entry contains the location string of the UV Hub of the CPU physically connected to the corresponding PCI bus.

The slot entry contains the physical slot number of the corresponding PCI bus. This value is used to physically locate PCI cards within a system.

The ppb_addr entry contains the PCI address string of the bridged PCI bus. This entry is only present when the PCI bus object type is ‘PPB’.

The iio_stack entry contains a value describing the IIO stack number that the corresponding PCI bus object is connected to.

/sys/fs/ocfs2/

Defined on file sysfs-ocfs2

The /sys/fs/ocfs2 directory contains knobs used by the ocfs2-tools to interact with the filesystem.

/sys/fs/ocfs2/active_cluster_plugin

Defined on file sysfs-ocfs2

The /sys/fs/ocfs2/active_cluster_plugin displays which cluster plugin is currently in use by the filesystem. The active plugin will appear in the loaded_cluster_plugins file as well. Only one plugin can be used at a time.

Reading from this file returns the name of the active plugin on a single line.

This file is read-only. Which plugin is active depends on the cluster stack in use. The contents may change when all filesystems are unmounted and the cluster stack is changed.

/sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack

Defined on file sysfs-ocfs2

The /sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack file contains the name of current ocfs2 cluster stack. This value is set by userspace tools when bringing the cluster stack online.

Cluster stack names are 4 characters in length.

When the ‘o2cb’ cluster stack is used, the ‘o2cb’ cluster plugin is active. All other cluster stacks use the ‘user’ cluster plugin.

Reading from this file returns the name of the current cluster stack on a single line.

Writing a new stack name to this file changes the current cluster stack unless there are mounted ocfs2 filesystems. If there are mounted filesystems, attempts to change the stack return an error.

Users:

ocfs2-tools <ocfs2-tools-devel@lists.linux.dev>

/sys/fs/ocfs2/loaded_cluster_plugins

Defined on file sysfs-ocfs2

The /sys/fs/ocfs2/loaded_cluster_plugins file describes the available plugins to support ocfs2 cluster operation. A cluster plugin is required to use ocfs2 in a cluster. There are currently two available plugins:

  • ‘o2cb’ - The classic o2cb cluster stack that ocfs2 has

    used since its inception.

  • ‘user’ - A plugin supporting userspace cluster software

    in conjunction with fs/dlm.

Reading from this file returns the names of all loaded plugins, one per line.

This file is read-only. Its contents may change as plugins are loaded or removed.

/sys/fs/ocfs2/max_locking_protocol

Defined on file sysfs-ocfs2

The /sys/fs/ocfs2/max_locking_protocol file displays version of ocfs2 locking supported by the filesystem. This version covers how ocfs2 uses distributed locking between cluster nodes.

The protocol version has a major and minor number. Two cluster nodes can interoperate if they have an identical major number and an overlapping minor number - thus, a node with version 1.10 can interoperate with a node sporting version 1.8, as long as both use the 1.8 protocol.

Reading from this file returns a single line, the major number and minor number joined by a period, eg “1.10”.

This file is read-only. The value is compiled into the driver.

/sys/fs/pstore/..

/dev/pstore/..

Defined on file pstore

Generic interface to platform dependent persistent storage.

Platforms that provide a mechanism to preserve some data across system reboots can register with this driver to provide a generic interface to show records captured in the dying moments. In the case of a panic the last part of the console log is captured, but other interesting data can also be saved:

# mount -t pstore -o kmsg_bytes=8000 - /sys/fs/pstore

$ ls -l /sys/fs/pstore/
total 0
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 7896 Nov 30 15:38 dmesg-erst-1

Different users of this interface will result in different filename prefixes. Currently two are defined:

  • “dmesg” - saved console log

  • “mce” - architecture dependent data from fatal h/w error

Once the information in a file has been read, removing the file will signal to the underlying persistent storage device that it can reclaim the space for later re-use:

$ rm /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-erst-1

The expectation is that all files in /sys/fs/pstore/ will be saved elsewhere and erased from persistent store soon after boot to free up space ready for the next catastrophe.

The ‘kmsg_bytes’ mount option changes the target amount of data saved on each oops/panic. Pstore saves (possibly multiple) files based on the record size of the underlying persistent storage until at least this amount is reached. Default is 10 Kbytes.

Pstore only supports one backend at a time. If multiple backends are available, the preferred backend may be set by passing the pstore.backend= argument to the kernel at boot time.

/sys/fs/ubifsX_Y/error_crc

/sys/kernel/boot_params

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-boot_params

The /sys/kernel/boot_params directory contains two files: “data” and “version” and one subdirectory “setup_data”. It is used to export the kernel boot parameters of an x86 platform to userspace for kexec and debugging purpose.

If there’s no setup_data in boot_params the subdirectory will not be created.

“data” file is the binary representation of struct boot_params.

“version” file is the string representation of boot protocol version.

“setup_data” subdirectory contains the setup_data data structure in boot_params. setup_data is maintained in kernel as a link list. In “setup_data” subdirectory there’s one subdirectory for each link list node named with the number of the list nodes. The list node subdirectory contains two files “type” and “data”. “type” file is the string representation of setup_data type. “data” file is the binary representation of setup_data payload.

The whole boot_params directory structure is like below:

/sys/kernel/boot_params
|__ data
|__ setup_data
|   |__ 0
|   |   |__ data
|   |   |__ type

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/console_log

Defined on file debugfs-cros-ec

If the EC supports the CONSOLE_READ command type, this file can be used to grab the EC logs. The kernel polls for the log and keeps its own buffer but userspace should grab this and write it out to some logs.

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/last_resume_result

Defined on file debugfs-cros-ec

Some ECs have a feature where they will track transitions to the (Intel) processor’s SLP_S0 line, in order to detect cases where a system failed to go into S0ix. When the system resumes, an EC with this feature will return a summary of SLP_S0 transitions that occurred. The last_resume_result file returns the most recent response from the AP’s resume message to the EC.

The bottom 31 bits contain a count of the number of SLP_S0 transitions that occurred since the suspend message was received. Bit 31 is set if the EC attempted to wake the system due to a timeout when watching for SLP_S0 transitions. Callers can use this to detect a wake from the EC due to S0ix timeouts. The result will be zero if no suspend transitions have been attempted, or the EC does not support this feature.

Output will be in the format: “0x%08xn”.

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/panicinfo

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/pdinfo

Defined on file debugfs-cros-ec

This file provides the port role, muxes and power debug information for all the USB PD/type-C ports available. If the are no ports available, this file will be just an empty file.

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/suspend_timeout_ms

Defined on file debugfs-cros-ec

Some ECs have a feature where they will track transitions of a hardware-controlled sleep line, such as Intel’s SLP_S0 line, in order to detect cases where a system failed to go into deep sleep states. The suspend_timeout_ms file controls the amount of time in milliseconds the EC will wait before declaring a sleep timeout event and attempting to wake the system.

Supply 0 to use the default value coded into EC firmware. Supply 65535 (EC_HOST_SLEEP_TIMEOUT_INFINITE) to disable the EC sleep failure detection mechanism. Values in between 0 and 65535 indicate the number of milliseconds the EC should wait after a sleep transition before declaring a timeout. This includes both the duration after a sleep command was received but before the hardware line changed, as well as the duration between when the hardware line changed and the kernel sent an EC resume command.

Output will be in the format: “%un”.

/sys/kernel/debug/<cros-ec-device>/uptime

Defined on file debugfs-driver-habanalabs

Allows the root user to read or write directly through the device’s PCI bar. Writing to this file generates a write transaction while reading from the file generates a read transaction. This custom interface is needed (instead of using the generic Linux user-space PCI mapping) because the DDR bar is very small compared to the DDR memory and only the driver can move the bar before and after the transaction.

If the IOMMU is disabled, it also allows the root user to read or write from the host a device VA of a host mapped memory

/sys/kernel/debug/accel/<parent_device>/data64

Defined on file debugfs-driver-habanalabs

Allows the root user to read or write 64 bit data directly through the device’s PCI bar. Writing to this file generates a write transaction while reading from the file generates a read transaction. This custom interface is needed (instead of using the generic Linux user-space PCI mapping) because the DDR bar is very small compared to the DDR memory and only the driver can move the bar before and after the transaction.

If the IOMMU is disabled, it also allows the root user to read or write from the host a device VA of a host mapped memory

/sys/kernel/debug/accel/<parent_device>/data_dma

Defined on file debugfs-driver-habanalabs

Allows the root user to read from the device’s internal memory (DRAM/SRAM) through a DMA engine. This property is a binary blob that contains the result of the DMA transfer. This custom interface is needed (instead of using the generic Linux user-space PCI mapping) because the amount of internal memory is huge (>32GB) and reading it via the PCI bar will take a very long time. This interface doesn’t support concurrency in the same device. In GAUDI and GOYA, this action can cause undefined behavior in case it is done while the device is executing user workloads. Only supported on GAUDI at this stage.

/sys/kernel/debug/accel/<parent_device>/monitor_dump

Defined on file debugfs-driver-habanalabs

Allows the root user to dump monitors status from the device’s protected config space. This property is a binary blob that contains the result of the monitors registers dump. This custom interface is needed (instead of using the generic Linux user-space PCI mapping) because this space is protected and cannot be accessed using PCI read. This interface doesn’t support concurrency in the same device. Only supported on GAUDI.

/sys/kernel/debug/accel/<parent_device>/monitor_dump_trig

/sys/kernel/debug/cec/*/error-inj

Defined on file debugfs-cec-error-inj

The CEC Framework allows for CEC error injection commands through debugfs. Drivers that support this will create an error-inj file through which the error injection commands can be given.

The basic syntax is as follows:

Leading spaces/tabs are ignored. If the next character is a ‘#’ or the end of the line was reached, then the whole line is ignored. Otherwise a command is expected.

It is up to the driver to decide what commands to implement. The only exception is that the command ‘clear’ without any arguments must be implemented and that it will remove all current error injection commands.

This ensures that you can always do ‘echo clear >error-inj’ to clear any error injections without having to know the details of the driver-specific commands.

Note that the output of ‘error-inj’ shall be valid as input to ‘error-inj’. So this must work:

$ cat error-inj >einj.txt
$ cat einj.txt >error-inj

Other than these basic rules described above this ABI is not considered stable and may change in the future.

Drivers that implement this functionality must document the commands as part of the CEC documentation and must keep that documentation up to date when changes are made.

The following CEC error injection implementations exist:

/sys/kernel/debug/cxl/$dport_dev/einj_inject

Defined on file debugfs-cxl

(WO) Writing an integer to this file injects the corresponding CXL protocol error into $dport_dev ($dport_dev will be a device name from /sys/bus/pci/devices). The integer to type mapping for injection can be found by reading from einj_types. If the dport was enumerated in RCH mode, a CXL 1.1 error is injected, otherwise a CXL 2.0 error is injected.

/sys/kernel/debug/cxl/einj_types

Defined on file debugfs-cxl

(RO) Prints the CXL protocol error types made available by the platform in the format:

0x<error number> <error type>

The possible error types are (as of ACPI v6.5):

0x1000 CXL.cache Protocol Correctable 0x2000 CXL.cache Protocol Uncorrectable non-fatal 0x4000 CXL.cache Protocol Uncorrectable fatal 0x8000 CXL.mem Protocol Correctable 0x10000 CXL.mem Protocol Uncorrectable non-fatal 0x20000 CXL.mem Protocol Uncorrectable fatal

The <error number> can be written to einj_inject to inject <error type> into a chosen dport.

/sys/kernel/debug/cxl/memX/inject_poison

Defined on file debugfs-cxl

(WO) When a Device Physical Address (DPA) is written to this attribute, the memdev driver sends an inject poison command to the device for the specified address. The DPA must be 64-byte aligned and the length of the injected poison is 64-bytes. If successful, the device returns poison when the address is accessed through the CXL.mem bus. Injecting poison adds the address to the device’s Poison List and the error source is set to Injected. In addition, the device adds a poison creation event to its internal Informational Event log, updates the Event Status register, and if configured, interrupts the host. It is not an error to inject poison into an address that already has poison present and no error is returned. The inject_poison attribute is only visible for devices supporting the capability.

/sys/kernel/debug/dcc/.../[list-number]/config

Defined on file debugfs-driver-dcc

This stores the addresses of the registers which can be read in case of a hardware crash or manual software triggers. The input addresses type can be one of following dcc instructions: read, write, read-write, and loop type. The lists need to be configured sequentially and not in a overlapping manner; e.g. users can jump to list x only after list y is configured and enabled. The input format for each type is as follows:

  1. Read instruction

    echo R <addr> <n> <bus> >/sys/kernel/debug/dcc/../[list-number]/config
    

    where:

    <addr>

    The address to be read.

    <n>

    The addresses word count, starting from address <1>. Each word is 32 bits (4 bytes). If omitted, defaulted to 1.

    <bus type>

    The bus type, which can be either ‘apb’ or ‘ahb’. The default is ‘ahb’ if leaved out.

  2. Write instruction

    echo W <addr> <n> <bus type> > /sys/kernel/debug/dcc/../[list-number]/config
    

    where:

    <addr>

    The address to be written.

    <n>

    The value to be written at <addr>.

    <bus type>

    The bus type, which can be either ‘apb’ or ‘ahb’.

  3. Read-write instruction

    echo RW <addr> <n> <mask> > /sys/kernel/debug/dcc/../[list-number]/config
    

    where:

    <addr>

    The address to be read and written.

    <n>

    The value to be written at <addr>.

    <mask>

    The value mask.

  4. Loop instruction

    echo L <loop count> <address count> <address>... > /sys/kernel/debug/dcc/../[list-number]/config
    

    where:

    <loop count>

    Number of iterations

    <address count>

    total number of addresses to be written

    <address>

    Space-separated list of addresses.

/sys/kernel/debug/dcc/.../[list-number]/enable

Defined on file debugfs-driver-dcc

This debugfs interface is used for enabling the the dcc hardware. A file named “enable” is in the directory list number where users can enable/disable the specific list by writing boolean (1 or 0) to the file.

On enabling the dcc, all the addresses specified by the user for the corresponding list is written into dcc sram which is read by the dcc hardware on manual or crash induced triggers. Lists must be configured and enabled sequentially, e.g. list 2 can only be enabled when list 1 have so.

/sys/kernel/debug/dcc/.../config_reset

Defined on file debugfs-driver-dcc

This file is used to reset the configuration of a dcc driver to the default configuration. When ‘1’ is written to the file, all the previous addresses stored in the driver gets removed and users need to reconfigure addresses again.

This file is used to control and show counts of execution time ranges for various types per DMAR.

Firstly, write a value to /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/intel/dmar_perf_latency to enable sampling.

The possible values are as follows:

  • 0 - disable sampling all latency data

  • 1 - enable sampling IOTLB invalidation latency data

  • 2 - enable sampling devTLB invalidation latency data

  • 3 - enable sampling intr entry cache invalidation latency data

Next, read /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/intel/dmar_perf_latency gives a snapshot of sampling result of all enabled monitors.

/sys/kernel/debug/memX/clear_poison

Defined on file debugfs-cxl

(WO) When a Device Physical Address (DPA) is written to this attribute, the memdev driver sends a clear poison command to the device for the specified address. Clearing poison removes the address from the device’s Poison List and writes 0 (zero) for 64 bytes starting at address. It is not an error to clear poison from an address that does not have poison set. If the device cannot clear poison from the address, -ENXIO is returned. The clear_poison attribute is only visible for devices supporting the capability.

/sys/kernel/debug/moxtet/input

Defined on file debugfs-moxtet

(Read) Read input from the shift registers, in hexadecimal. Returns N+1 bytes, where N is the number of Moxtet connected modules. The first byte is from the CPU board itself.

Example:

101214

10

CPU board with SD card

12

2 = PCIe module, 1 = IRQ not active

14

4 = Peridot module, 1 = IRQ not active

/sys/kernel/debug/moxtet/output

Defined on file debugfs-moxtet

(RW) Read last written value to the shift registers, in hexadecimal, or write values to the shift registers, also in hexadecimal.

Example:

0102

The pktcdvd module (packet writing driver) creates these files in debugfs:

/sys/kernel/debug/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/

info

0444

Lots of driver statistics and infos.

Example:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/pktcdvd/pktcdvd0/info

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

This folder contains the relevant debugfs files for the hardware trace macro to use. CONFIG_PPC64_HARDWARE_TRACING must be set.

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/<node-id>

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

This directory contains information about the removed memory from the specific NUMA node.

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/<node-id>/size

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

This contains the size of the memory removed from the node.

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/<node-id>/start

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

This contains the start address of the removed memory.

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/<node-id>/trace

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

This is where the hardware trace macro will output the trace it generates.

/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/enable

Defined on file ppc-memtrace

Write an integer containing the size in bytes of the memory you want removed from each NUMA node to this file - it must be aligned to the memblock size. This amount of RAM will be removed from each NUMA node in the kernel mappings and the following debugfs files will be created. Once memory is successfully removed from each node, the following files are created. To re-add memory to the kernel, echo 0 into this file (it will be automatically onlined).

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/cnv_errors

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns, for each Acceleration Engine (AE), the number of errors and the type of the last error detected by the device when performing verified compression. Reported counters:

<N>: Number of Compress and Verify (CnV) errors and type
     of the last CnV error detected by Acceleration
     Engine N.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/fw_counters

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns the number of requests sent to the FW and the number of responses received from the FW for each Acceleration Engine Reported firmware counters:

<N>: Number of requests sent from Acceleration Engine N to FW and responses
     Acceleration Engine N received from FW

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/heartbeat/config

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RW) Read returns value of the Heartbeat update period. Write to the file changes this period value.

This period should reflect planned polling interval of device health status. High frequency Heartbeat monitoring wastes CPU cycles but minimizes the customer’s system downtime. Also, if there are large service requests that take some time to complete, high frequency Heartbeat monitoring could result in false reports of unresponsiveness and in those cases, period needs to be increased.

This parameter is effective only for c3xxx, c62x, dh895xcc devices. 4xxx has this value internally fixed to 200ms.

Default value is set to 500. Minimal allowed value is 200. All values are expressed in milliseconds.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/heartbeat/inject_error

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(WO) Write to inject an error that simulates an heartbeat failure. This is to be used for testing purposes.

After writing this file, the driver stops arbitration on a random engine and disables the fetching of heartbeat counters. If a workload is running on the device, a job submitted to the accelerator might not get a response and a read of the heartbeat/status attribute might report -1, i.e. device unresponsive. The error is unrecoverable thus the device must be restarted to restore its functionality.

This attribute is available only when the kernel is built with CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_QAT_ERROR_INJECTION=y.

A write of 1 enables error injection.

The following example shows how to enable error injection:

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>
# echo 1 > heartbeat/inject_error

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/heartbeat/queries_failed

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns the number of times the device became unresponsive.

Attribute returns value of the counter which is incremented when status query results negative.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/heartbeat/queries_sent

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns the number of times the control process checked if the device is responsive.

Attribute returns value of the counter which is incremented on every status query.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/heartbeat/status

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns the device health status.

Returns 0 when device is healthy or -1 when is unresponsive or the query failed to send.

The driver does not monitor for Heartbeat. It is left for a user to poll the status periodically.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/pm_status

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat

(RO) Read returns power management information specific to the QAT device.

This attribute is only available for qat_4xxx devices.

/sys/kernel/debug/qat_<device>_<BDF>/telemetry/control

Defined on file debugfs-driver-qat_telemetry

(RW) Enables/disables the reporting of telemetry metrics.

Allowed values to write:

  • 0: disable telemetry

  • 1: enable telemetry

  • 2, 3, 4: enable telemetry and calculate minimum, maximum and average for each counter over 2, 3 or 4 samples

Returned values:

  • 1-4: telemetry is enabled and running

  • 0: telemetry is disabled

Example.

Writing ‘3’ to this file starts the collection of telemetry metrics. Samples are collected every second and stored in a circular buffer of size 3. These values are then used to calculate the minimum, maximum and average for each counter. After enabling, counters can be retrieved through the device_data file:

echo 3 > /sys/kernel/debug/qat_4xxx_0000:6b:00.0/telemetry/control

Writing ‘0’ to this file stops the collection of telemetry metrics:

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/qat_4xxx_0000:6b:00.0/telemetry/control

This attribute is only available for qat_4xxx devices.

echo 32 > /sys/kernel/debug/qat_4xxx_0000:6b:00.0/telemetry/rp_C_data

Once a ring pair is selected, statistics can be read accessing the file:

cat /sys/kernel/debug/qat_4xxx_0000:6b:00.0/telemetry/rp_C_data

If control is set to 1, only the current values of the counters are displayed:

<counter_name> <current>

If control is 2, 3 or 4, counters are displayed in the following format:

<counter_name> <current> <min> <max> <avg>

On QAT GEN4 devices there are 64 RPs on a PF, so the allowed values are 0..63. This number is absolute to the device. If Virtual Functions (VF) are used, the ring pair number can be derived from the Bus, Device, Function of the VF:

Output will formatted with “0x%02xn”.

/sys/kernel/debug/wilco_ec/raw

Defined on file debugfs-wilco-ec

Write and read raw mailbox commands to the EC.

You can write a hexadecimal sentence to raw, and that series of bytes will be sent to the EC. Then, you can read the bytes of response by reading from raw.

For writing, bytes 0-1 indicate the message type, one of enum wilco_ec_msg_type. Byte 2+ consist of the data passed in the request, starting at MBOX[0]. At least three bytes are required for writing, two for the type and at least a single byte of data.

Example:

// Request EC info type 3 (EC firmware build date)
// Corresponds with sending type 0x00f0 with
// MBOX = [38, 00, 03, 00]
$ echo 00 f0 38 00 03 00 > /sys/kernel/debug/wilco_ec/raw
// View the result. The decoded ASCII result "12/21/18" is
// included after the raw hex.
// Corresponds with MBOX = [00, 00, 31, 32, 2f, 32, 31, 38, ...]
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/wilco_ec/raw
00 00 31 32 2f 32 31 2f 31 38 00 38 00 01 00 2f 00  ..12/21/18.8...

Note that the first 16 bytes of the received MBOX[] will be printed, even if some of the data is junk, and skipping bytes 17 to 32. It is up to you to know how many of the first bytes of data are the actual response.

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-iommu_groups

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/ contains a number of sub- directories, each representing an IOMMU group. The name of the sub-directory matches the iommu_group_id() for the group, which is an integer value. Within each subdirectory is another directory named “devices” with links to the sysfs devices contained in this group. The group directory also optionally contains a “name” file if the IOMMU driver has chosen to register a more common name for the group.

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/<grp_id>/type

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-iommu_groups

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/<grp_id>/type shows the type of default domain in use by iommu for this group. See include/linux/iommu.h for possible read values. A privileged user could request kernel to change the group type by writing to this file. Valid write values:

DMA

All the DMA transactions from the device in this group are translated by the iommu.

DMA-FQ

As above, but using batched invalidation to lazily remove translations after use. This may offer reduced overhead at the cost of reduced memory protection.

identity

All the DMA transactions from the device in this group are not translated by the iommu. Maximum performance but zero protection.

auto

Change to the type the device was booted with.

The default domain type of a group may be modified only when

  • The device in the group is not bound to any device driver. So, the users must unbind the appropriate driver before changing the default domain type.

Unbinding a device driver will take away the driver’s control over the device and if done on devices that host root file system could lead to catastrophic effects (the users might need to reboot the machine to get it to normal state). So, it’s expected that the users understand what they’re doing.

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/reserved_regions

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-iommu_groups

/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/reserved_regions list IOVA regions that are reserved. Not necessarily all reserved regions are listed. This is typically used to output direct-mapped, MSI, non mappable regions. Each region is described on a single line: the 1st field is the base IOVA, the second is the end IOVA and the third field describes the type of the region.

Since kernel 5.3, in case an RMRR is used only by graphics or USB devices it is now exposed as “direct-relaxable” instead of “direct”. In device assignment use case, for instance, those RMRR are considered to be relaxable and safe.

Writing ‘update_schemes_tried_regions’ to the file updates contents of ‘tried_regions’ directory of every scheme directory of this kdamond. Writing ‘update_schemes_tried_bytes’ to the file updates only ‘.../tried_regions/total_bytes’ files of this kdamond. Writing ‘clear_schemes_tried_regions’ to the file removes contents of the ‘tried_regions’ directory. Writing ‘update_schemes_effective_quotas’ to the file updates ‘.../quotas/effective_bytes’ files of this kdamond.

/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/nr_kdamonds

/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/merge_across_nodes

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-ksm

Control merging pages across different NUMA nodes.

When it is set to 0 only pages from the same node are merged, otherwise pages from all nodes can be merged together (default).

/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-mempolicy

Interface for Mempolicy

/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-mempolicy-weighted-interleave

Configuration Interface for the Weighted Interleave policy

/sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/nodeN

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-mempolicy-weighted-interleave

Weight configuration interface for nodeN

The interleave weight for a memory node (N). These weights are utilized by tasks which have set their mempolicy to MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE.

These weights only affect new allocations, and changes at runtime will not cause migrations on already allocated pages.

The minimum weight for a node is always 1.

Minimum weight: 1 Maximum weight: 255

Writing an empty string or 0 will reset the weight to the system default. The system default may be set by the kernel or drivers at boot or during hotplug events.

/sys/kernel/mm/numa/

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-numa

Interface for NUMA

/sys/kernel/mm/numa/demotion_enabled

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-numa

Enable/disable demoting pages during reclaim

Page migration during reclaim is intended for systems with tiered memory configurations. These systems have multiple types of memory with varied performance characteristics instead of plain NUMA systems where the same kind of memory is found at varied distances. Allowing page migration during reclaim enables these systems to migrate pages from fast tiers to slow tiers when the fast tier is under pressure. This migration is performed before swap. It may move data to a NUMA node that does not fall into the cpuset of the allocating process which might be construed to violate the guarantees of cpusets. This should not be enabled on systems which need strict cpuset location guarantees.

/sys/kernel/mm/swap/

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-swap

Interface for swapping

/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_enabled

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-mm-swap

Enable/disable VMA based swap readahead.

If set to true, the VMA based swap readahead algorithm will be used for swappable anonymous pages mapped in a VMA, and the global swap readahead algorithm will be still used for tmpfs etc. other users. If set to false, the global swap readahead algorithm will be used for all swappable pages.

Defined on file evm

Shows the set of extended attributes used to calculate or validate the EVM signature, and allows additional attributes to be added at runtime. Any signatures generated after additional attributes are added (and on files possessing those additional attributes) will only be valid if the same additional attributes are configured on system boot. Writing a single period (.) will lock the xattr list from any further modification.

/sys/kernel/security/*/ima/policy

Defined on file ima_policy

The Trusted Computing Group(TCG) runtime Integrity Measurement Architecture(IMA) maintains a list of hash values of executables and other sensitive system files loaded into the run-time of this system. At runtime, the policy can be constrained based on LSM specific data. Policies are loaded into the securityfs file ima/policy by opening the file, writing the rules one at a time and then closing the file. The new policy takes effect after the file ima/policy is closed.

IMA appraisal, if configured, uses these file measurements for local measurement appraisal.

measure subj_role=system_r func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ

Smack:

measure subj_user=_ func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ

Example of measure rules using alternate PCRs:

measure func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK pcr=4
measure func=KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK pcr=5

Example of appraise rule allowing modsig appended signatures:

appraise func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK appraise_type=imasig|modsig

Example of measure rule using KEY_CHECK to measure all keys:

measure func=KEY_CHECK

Example of measure rule using KEY_CHECK to only measure keys added to .builtin_trusted_keys or .ima keyring:

measure func=KEY_CHECK keyrings=.builtin_trusted_keys|.ima

Example of the special SETXATTR_CHECK appraise rule, that restricts the hash algorithms allowed when writing to the security.ima xattr of a file:

appraise func=SETXATTR_CHECK appraise_algos=sha256,sha384,sha512

Example of a ‘measure’ rule requiring fs-verity’s digests with indication of type of digest in the measurement list.

measure func=FILE_CHECK digest_type=verity

template=ima-ngv2

Example of ‘measure’ and ‘appraise’ rules requiring fs-verity signatures (format version 3) stored in security.ima xattr.

The ‘measure’ rule specifies the ‘ima-sigv3’ template option, which includes the indication of type of digest and the file signature in the measurement list.

measure func=BPRM_CHECK digest_type=verity

template=ima-sigv3

The ‘appraise’ rule specifies the type and signature format version (sigv3) required.

appraise func=BPRM_CHECK digest_type=verity

appraise_type=sigv3

All of these policy rules could, for example, be constrained either based on a filesystem’s UUID (fsuuid) or based on LSM labels.

/sys/kernel/security/evm

/sys/kernel/security/*/evm

Defined on file evm

EVM protects a file’s security extended attributes(xattrs) against integrity attacks. The initial method maintains an HMAC-sha1 value across the extended attributes, storing the value as the extended attribute ‘security.evm’.

EVM supports two classes of security.evm. The first is an HMAC-sha1 generated locally with a trusted/encrypted key stored in the Kernel Key Retention System. The second is a digital signature generated either locally or remotely using an asymmetric key. These keys are loaded onto root’s keyring using keyctl, and EVM is then enabled by echoing a value to <securityfs>/evm made up of the following bits:

Bit

Effect

0

Enable HMAC validation and creation

1

Enable digital signature validation

2

Permit modification of EVM-protected metadata at runtime. Not supported if HMAC validation and creation is enabled (deprecated).

31

Disable further runtime modification of EVM policy

For example:

echo 1 ><securityfs>/evm

will enable HMAC validation and creation

echo 0x80000003 ><securityfs>/evm

will enable HMAC and digital signature validation and HMAC creation and disable all further modification of policy.

echo 0x80000006 ><securityfs>/evm

will enable digital signature validation, permit modification of EVM-protected metadata and disable all further modification of policy. This option is now deprecated in favor of:

echo 0x80000002 ><securityfs>/evm

as the outstanding issues that prevent the usage of EVM portable signatures have been solved.

Echoing a value is additive, the new value is added to the existing initialization flags.

For example, after:

echo 2 ><securityfs>/evm

another echo can be performed:

echo 1 ><securityfs>/evm

and the resulting value will be 3.

Note that once an HMAC key has been loaded, it will no longer be possible to enable metadata modification. Signaling that an HMAC key has been loaded will clear the corresponding flag. For example, if the current value is 6 (2 and 4 set):

echo 1 ><securityfs>/evm

will set the new value to 3 (4 cleared).

Loading an HMAC key is the only way to disable metadata modification.

Until key loading has been signaled EVM can not create or validate the ‘security.evm’ xattr, but returns INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN. Loading keys and signaling EVM should be done as early as possible. Normally this is done in the initramfs, which has already been measured as part of the trusted boot. For more information on creating and loading existing trusted/encrypted keys, refer to: Trusted and Encrypted Keys. Both dracut (via 97masterkey and 98integrity) and systemd (via core/ima-setup) have support for loading keys at boot time.

/sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/sanity_checks

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-slab

The sanity_checks file specifies whether expensive checks should be performed on free and, at minimum, enables double free checks. Caches that enable sanity_checks cannot be merged with caches that do not.

/sys/kernel/slab/<cache>/shrink

Defined on file sysfs-kernel-slab

The shrink file is used to reclaim unused slab cache memory from a cache. Empty per-cpu or partial slabs are freed and the partial list is sorted so the slabs with the fewest available objects are used first. It only accepts a value of “1” on write for shrinking the cache. Other input values are considered invalid. Shrinking slab caches might be expensive and can adversely impact other running applications. So it should be used with care.

/sys/module/ehci_hcd/drivers/.../uframe_periodic_max

Defined on file sysfs-module

Maximum time allowed for periodic transfers per microframe (μs)

Note:

USB 2.0 sets maximum allowed time for periodic transfers per microframe to be 80%, that is 100 microseconds out of 125 microseconds (full microframe).

However there are cases, when 80% max isochronous bandwidth is too limiting. For example two video streams could require 110 microseconds of isochronous bandwidth per microframe to work together.

Through this setting it is possible to raise the limit so that the host controller would allow allocating more than 100 microseconds of periodic bandwidth per microframe.

Beware, non-standard modes are usually not thoroughly tested by hardware designers, and the hardware can malfunction when this setting differ from default 100.

/sys/module/grant_table/parameters/free_per_iteration

Symbols under /sys/power

/sys/power/

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power directory will contain files that will provide a unified interface to the power management subsystem.

/sys/power/autosleep

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/autosleep file can be written one of the strings returned by reads from /sys/power/state. If that happens, a work item attempting to trigger a transition of the system to the sleep state represented by that string is queued up. This attempt will only succeed if there are no active wakeup sources in the system at that time. After every execution, regardless of whether or not the attempt to put the system to sleep has succeeded, the work item requeues itself until user space writes “off” to /sys/power/autosleep.

Reading from this file causes the last string successfully written to it to be returned.

/sys/power/disk

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/disk file controls the operating mode of the suspend-to-disk mechanism. Reading from this file returns the name of the method by which the system will be put to sleep on the next suspend. There are four methods supported:

‘firmware’ - means that the memory image will be saved to disk by some firmware, in which case we also assume that the firmware will handle the system suspend.

‘platform’ - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and the system will be put to sleep by the platform driver (e.g. ACPI or other PM registers).

‘shutdown’ - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and the system will be powered off.

‘reboot’ - the memory image will be saved by the kernel and the system will be rebooted.

Additionally, /sys/power/disk can be used to turn on one of the two testing modes of the suspend-to-disk mechanism: ‘testproc’ or ‘test’. If the suspend-to-disk mechanism is in the ‘testproc’ mode, writing ‘disk’ to /sys/power/state will cause the kernel to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze tasks, wait for 5 seconds, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs. If it is in the ‘test’ mode, writing ‘disk’ to /sys/power/state will cause the kernel to disable nonboot CPUs and freeze tasks, shrink memory, suspend devices, wait for 5 seconds, resume devices, unfreeze tasks and enable nonboot CPUs. Then, we are able to look in the log messages and work out, for example, which code is being slow and which device drivers are misbehaving.

The suspend-to-disk method may be chosen by writing to this file one of the accepted strings:

  • ‘firmware’

  • ‘platform’

  • ‘shutdown’

  • ‘reboot’

  • ‘testproc’

  • ‘test’

It will only change to ‘firmware’ or ‘platform’ if the system supports that.

/sys/power/image_size

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/image_size file controls the size of the image created by the suspend-to-disk mechanism. It can be written a string representing a non-negative integer that will be used as an upper limit of the image size, in bytes. The kernel’s suspend-to-disk code will do its best to ensure the image size will not exceed this number. However, if it turns out to be impossible, the kernel will try to suspend anyway using the smallest image possible. In particular, if “0” is written to this file, the suspend image will be as small as possible.

Reading from this file will display the current image size limit, which is set to around 2/5 of available RAM by default.

/sys/power/mem_sleep

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/mem_sleep file controls the operating mode of system suspend. Reading from it returns the available modes as “s2idle” (always present), “shallow” and “deep” (present if supported). The mode that will be used on subsequent attempts to suspend the system (by writing “mem” to the /sys/power/state file described above) is enclosed in square brackets.

Writing one of the above strings to this file causes the mode represented by it to be used on subsequent attempts to suspend the system.

See System Sleep States for more information.

/sys/power/pm_async

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/pm_async file controls the switch allowing the user space to enable or disable asynchronous suspend and resume of devices. If enabled, this feature will cause some device drivers’ suspend and resume callbacks to be executed in parallel with each other and with the main suspend thread. It is enabled if this file contains “1”, which is the default. It may be disabled by writing “0” to this file, in which case all devices will be suspended and resumed synchronously.

/sys/power/pm_debug_messages

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/pm_debug_messages file controls the printing of debug messages from the system suspend/hiberbation infrastructure to the kernel log.

Writing a “1” to this file enables the debug messages and writing a “0” (default) to it disables them. Reads from this file return the current value.

/sys/power/pm_print_times

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/pm_print_times file allows user space to control whether the time taken by devices to suspend and resume is printed. These prints are useful for hunting down devices that take too long to suspend or resume.

Writing a “1” enables this printing while writing a “0” disables it. The default value is “0”. Reading from this file will display the current value.

/sys/power/pm_trace

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/pm_trace file controls the code which saves the last PM event point in the RTC across reboots, so that you can debug a machine that just hangs during suspend (or more commonly, during resume). Namely, the RTC is only used to save the last PM event point if this file contains ‘1’. Initially it contains ‘0’ which may be changed to ‘1’ by writing a string representing a nonzero integer into it.

To use this debugging feature you should attempt to suspend the machine, then reboot it and run:

dmesg -s 1000000 | grep 'hash matches'

If you do not get any matches (or they appear to be false positives), it is possible that the last PM event point referred to a device created by a loadable kernel module. In this case cat /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match (see below) after your system is started up and the kernel modules are loaded.

CAUTION: Using it will cause your machine’s real-time (CMOS) clock to be set to a random invalid time after a resume.

What; /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match The /sys/power/pm_trace_dev_match file contains the name of the device associated with the last PM event point saved in the RTC across reboots when pm_trace has been used. More precisely it contains the list of current devices (including those registered by loadable kernel modules since boot) which match the device hash in the RTC at boot, with a newline after each one.

The advantage of this file over the hash matches printed to the kernel log (see /sys/power/pm_trace), is that it includes devices created after boot by loadable kernel modules.

Due to the small hash size necessary to fit in the RTC, it is possible that more than one device matches the hash, in which case further investigation is required to determine which device is causing the problem. Note that genuine RTC clock values (such as when pm_trace has not been used), can still match a device and output its name here.

/sys/power/pm_wakeup_irq

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/pm_wakeup_irq file reports to user space the IRQ number of the first wakeup interrupt (that is, the first interrupt from an IRQ line armed for system wakeup) seen by the kernel during the most recent system suspend/resume cycle.

This output is useful for system wakeup diagnostics of spurious wakeup interrupts.

/sys/power/reserved_size

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/reserved_size file allows user space to control the amount of memory reserved for allocations made by device drivers during the “device freeze” stage of hibernation. It can be written a string representing a non-negative integer that will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for allocations made by device drivers’ “freeze” callbacks, in bytes.

Reading from this file will display the current value, which is set to 1 MB by default.

/sys/power/resume_offset

Defined on file sysfs-power

This file is used for telling the kernel an offset into a disk to use when hibernating the system such as with a swap file.

Reads from this file will display the current offset the kernel will be using on the next hibernation attempt.

Using this sysfs file will override any values that were set using the kernel command line for disk offset.

/sys/power/state

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/state file controls system sleep states. Reading from this file returns the available sleep state labels, which may be “mem” (suspend), “standby” (power-on suspend), “freeze” (suspend-to-idle) and “disk” (hibernation).

Writing one of the above strings to this file causes the system to transition into the corresponding state, if available.

See System Sleep States for more information.

/sys/power/suspend_stats/last_hw_sleep

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/suspend_stats/last_hw_sleep file contains the duration of time spent in a hardware sleep state in the most recent system suspend-resume cycle. This number is measured in microseconds.

/sys/power/suspend_stats/max_hw_sleep

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/suspend_stats/max_hw_sleep file contains the maximum amount of time that the hardware can report for time spent in a hardware sleep state. When sleep cycles are longer than this time, the values for ‘total_hw_sleep’ and ‘last_hw_sleep’ may not be accurate. This number is measured in microseconds.

/sys/power/suspend_stats/success

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/suspend_stats/success file contains the number of times entering system sleep state succeeded.

/sys/power/suspend_stats/total_hw_sleep

The /sys/power/suspend_stats/total_hw_sleep file contains the aggregate of time spent in a hardware sleep state since the kernel was booted. This number is measured in microseconds.

/sys/power/sync_on_suspend

Defined on file sysfs-power

This file controls whether or not the kernel will sync() filesystems during system suspend (after freezing user space and before suspending devices).

Writing a “1” to this file enables the sync() and writing a “0” disables it. Reads from the file return the current value. The default is “1” if the build-time “SUSPEND_SKIP_SYNC” config flag is unset, or “0” otherwise.

/sys/power/wake_lock

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/wake_lock file allows user space to create wakeup source objects and activate them on demand (if one of those wakeup sources is active, reads from the /sys/power/wakeup_count file block or return false). When a string without white space is written to /sys/power/wake_lock, it will be assumed to represent a wakeup source name. If there is a wakeup source object with that name, it will be activated (unless active already). Otherwise, a new wakeup source object will be registered, assigned the given name and activated. If a string written to /sys/power/wake_lock contains white space, the part of the string preceding the white space will be regarded as a wakeup source name and handled as descrived above. The other part of the string will be regarded as a timeout (in nanoseconds) such that the wakeup source will be automatically deactivated after it has expired. The timeout, if present, is set regardless of the current state of the wakeup source object in question.

Reads from this file return a string consisting of the names of wakeup sources created with the help of it that are active at the moment, separated with spaces.

/sys/power/wake_unlock

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/wake_unlock file allows user space to deactivate wakeup sources created with the help of /sys/power/wake_lock. When a string is written to /sys/power/wake_unlock, it will be assumed to represent the name of a wakeup source to deactivate.

If a wakeup source object of that name exists and is active at the moment, it will be deactivated.

Reads from this file return a string consisting of the names of wakeup sources created with the help of /sys/power/wake_lock that are inactive at the moment, separated with spaces.

/sys/power/wakeup_count

Defined on file sysfs-power

The /sys/power/wakeup_count file allows user space to put the system into a sleep state while taking into account the concurrent arrival of wakeup events. Reading from it returns the current number of registered wakeup events and it blocks if some wakeup events are being processed at the time the file is read from. Writing to it will only succeed if the current number of wakeup events is equal to the written value and, if successful, will make the kernel abort a subsequent transition to a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write has returned.

Symbols under security/secrets

security/secrets/coco

Defined on file securityfs-secrets-coco

Exposes confidential computing (coco) EFI secrets to userspace via securityfs.

EFI can declare memory area used by confidential computing platforms (such as AMD SEV and SEV-ES) for secret injection by the Guest Owner during VM’s launch. The secrets are encrypted by the Guest Owner and decrypted inside the trusted enclave, and therefore are not readable by the untrusted host.

The efi_secret module exposes the secrets to userspace. Each secret appears as a file under <securityfs>/secrets/coco, where the filename is the GUID of the entry in the secrets table. This module is loaded automatically by the EFI driver if the EFI secret area is populated.

Two operations are supported for the files: read and unlink. Reading the file returns the content of secret entry. Unlinking the file overwrites the secret data with zeroes and removes the entry from the filesystem. A secret cannot be read after it has been unlinked.

For example, listing the available secrets:

# modprobe efi_secret
# ls -l /sys/kernel/security/secrets/coco
-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 28 11:54 736870e5-84f0-4973-92ec-06879ce3da0b
-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 28 11:54 83c83f7f-1356-4975-8b7e-d3a0b54312c6

-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 28 11:54 e6f5a162-d67f-4750-a67c-5d065f2a9910

Reading the secret data by reading a file:

# cat /sys/kernel/security/secrets/coco/e6f5a162-d67f-4750-a67c-5d065f2a9910
the-content-of-the-secret-data

Wiping a secret by unlinking a file:

# rm /sys/kernel/security/secrets/coco/e6f5a162-d67f-4750-a67c-5d065f2a9910
# ls -l /sys/kernel/security/secrets/coco
-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 28 11:54 736870e5-84f0-4973-92ec-06879ce3da0b

-r--r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 28 11:54 9553f55d-3da2-43ee-ab5d-ff17f78864d2

Note: The binary format of the secrets table injected by the Guest Owner is described in drivers/virt/coco/efi_secret/efi_secret.c under “Structure of the EFI secret area”.

PCIe Device AER statistics

These attributes show up under all the devices that are AER capable. These statistical counters indicate the errors “as seen/reported by the device”. Note that this may mean that if an endpoint is causing problems, the AER counters may increment at its link partner (e.g. root port) because the errors may be “seen” / reported by the link partner and not the problematic endpoint itself (which may report all counters as 0 as it never saw any problems).
