Pull char/misc and other driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of char/misc and other small driver subsystem
updates for 5.18-rc1.
Included in here are merges from driver subsystems which contain:
- iio driver updates and new drivers
- fsi driver updates
- fpga driver updates
- habanalabs driver updates and support for new hardware
- soundwire driver updates and new drivers
- phy driver updates and new drivers
- coresight driver updates
- icc driver updates
Individual changes include:
- mei driver updates
- interconnect driver updates
- new PECI driver subsystem added
- vmci driver updates
- lots of tiny misc/char driver updates
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only + +======== +Overview +======== + +The Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) is a communication +interface between Intel processor and management controllers +(e.g. Baseboard Management Controller, BMC). +PECI provides services that allow the management controller to +configure, monitor and debug platform by accessing various registers. +It defines a dedicated command protocol, where the management +controller is acting as a PECI originator and the processor - as +a PECI responder. +PECI can be used in both single processor and multiple-processor based +systems. + +NOTE: +Intel PECI specification is not released as a dedicated document, +instead it is a part of External Design Specification (EDS) for given +Intel CPU. External Design Specifications are usually not publicly +available. + +PECI Wire +--------- + +PECI Wire interface uses a single wire for self-clocking and data +transfer. It does not require any additional control lines - the +physical layer is a self-clocked one-wire bus signal that begins each +bit with a driven, rising edge from an idle near zero volts. The +duration of the signal driven high allows to determine whether the bit +value is logic '0' or logic '1'. PECI Wire also includes variable data +rate established with every message. + +For PECI Wire, each processor package will utilize unique, fixed +addresses within a defined range and that address should +have a fixed relationship with the processor socket ID - if one of the +processors is removed, it does not affect addresses of remaining +processors. + +PECI subsystem internals +------------------------ + +.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/peci.h +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/peci/internal.h +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/peci/core.c +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/peci/request.c + +PECI CPU Driver API +------------------- +.. kernel-doc:: drivers/peci/cpu.c |
