+Description:
+ 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

+KernelVersion: 4.19
+Description:
+ 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.

+ this many milliseconds have passed since the previous

+What: /sys/bus/vmbus/devices/.../driver_override
+Date: August 2019
+Contact: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com>
+Description:
+ 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.

-----------
-
-The goal of the Linux kernel security team is to work with the bug
-submitter to understand and fix the bug. We prefer to publish the fix as
-soon as possible, but try to avoid public discussion of the bug itself
-and leave that to others.
-
-Publishing the fix may be delayed when the bug or the fix is not yet
-fully understood, the solution is not well-tested or for vendor
-coordination. However, we expect these delays to be short, measurable in
-days, not weeks or months. A release date is negotiated by the security
-team working with the bug submitter as well as vendors. However, the
-kernel security team holds the final say when setting a timeframe. The
-timeframe varies from immediate (esp. if it's already publicly known bug)
-to a few weeks. As a basic default policy, we expect report date to
-release date to be on the order of 7 days.
+Disclosure and embargoed information
+------------------------------------

+below.
+
+Once a robust fix has been developed, our preference is to release the

+thousands of changes and fixes the Linux kernel project releases every
+month.
+
+However, at the request of the reporter, we will postpone releasing the
+fix for up to 5 business days after the date of the report or after the
+embargo has lifted; whichever comes first. The only exception to that
+rule is if the bug is publicly known, in which case the preference is to
+release the fix as soon as it's available.
+
+Whilst embargoed information may be shared with trusted individuals in
+order to develop a fix, such information will not be published alongside
+the fix or on any other disclosure channel without the permission of the
+reporter. This includes but is not limited to the original bug report
+and followup discussions (if any), exploits, CVE information or the
+identity of the reporter.
+
+In other words our only interest is in getting bugs fixed. All other

+Coresight components are interconnected to create a data path for the flow of
+trace data generated from the "sources" to their collection points "sink".
+Each coresight component must describe the "input" and "output" connections.
+The connections must be described via generic DT graph bindings as described
+by the "bindings/graph.txt", where each "port" along with an "endpoint"
+component represents a hardware port and the connection.

+===================
+MIPI SyS-T over STP
+===================
+
+The MIPI SyS-T protocol driver can be used with STM class devices to
+generate standardized trace stream. Aside from being a standard, it
+provides better trace source identification and timestamp correlation.
+
+In order to use the MIPI SyS-T protocol driver with your STM device,
+first, you'll need CONFIG_STM_PROTO_SYS_T.
+
+Now, you can select which protocol driver you want to use when you create
+a policy for your STM device, by specifying it in the policy name:
+
+# mkdir /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/
+
+In other words, the policy name format is extended like this:
+
+ <device_name>:<protocol_name>.<policy_name>
+
+With Intel TH, therefore it can look like "0-sth:p_sys-t.my-policy".
+
+If the protocol name is omitted, the STM class will chose whichever
+protocol driver was loaded first.
+
+You can also double check that everything is working as expected by
+
+# cat /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/protocol
+p_sys-t
+
+Now, with the MIPI SyS-T protocol driver, each policy node in the
+configfs gets a few additional attributes, which determine per-source
+parameters specific to the protocol:
+
+# mkdir /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/default
+# ls /config/stp-policy/dummy_stm.0:p_sys-t.my-policy/default
+channels
+clocksync_interval
+do_len
+masters
+ts_interval
+uuid
+
+The most important one here is the "uuid", which determines the UUID
+that will be used to tag all data coming from this source. It is
+automatically generated when a new node is created, but it is likely
+that you would want to change it.
+
+do_len switches on/off the additional "payload length" field in the
+MIPI SyS-T message header. It is off by default as the STP already
+marks message boundaries.
+
+ts_interval and clocksync_interval determine how much time in milliseconds
+can pass before we need to include a protocol (not transport, aka STP)
+timestamp in a message header or send a CLOCKSYNC packet, respectively.
+
+See Documentation/ABI/testing/configfs-stp-policy-p_sys-t for more
+details.
