+Date:		February 2008
+Contact:	Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org>
+Description:
+		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.

+
+Smack is the the Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel.
+Smack is a kernel based implementation of mandatory access
+control that includes simplicity in its primary design goals.
+
+Smack is not the only Mandatory Access Control scheme
+available for Linux. Those new to Mandatory Access Control
+are encouraged to compare Smack with the other mechanisms
+available to determine which is best suited to the problem
+at hand.
+
+Smack consists of three major components:
+    - The kernel
+    - A start-up script and a few modified applications
+    - Configuration data
+
+The kernel component of Smack is implemented as a Linux
+Security Modules (LSM) module. It requires netlabel and
+works best with file systems that support extended attributes,
+although xattr support is not strictly required.
+It is safe to run a Smack kernel under a "vanilla" distribution.
+Smack kernels use the CIPSO IP option. Some network
+configurations are intolerant of IP options and can impede
+access to systems that use them as Smack does.
+
+The startup script etc-init.d-smack should be installed
+in /etc/init.d/smack and should be invoked early in the
+start-up process. On Fedora rc5.d/S02smack is recommended.
+This script ensures that certain devices have the correct
+Smack attributes and loads the Smack configuration if
+any is defined. This script invokes two programs that
+ensure configuration data is properly formatted. These
+programs are /usr/sbin/smackload and /usr/sin/smackcipso.
+The system will run just fine without these programs,
+but it will be difficult to set access rules properly.
+
+A version of "ls" that provides a "-M" option to display
+Smack labels on long listing is available.
+
+A hacked version of sshd that allows network logins by users
+with specific Smack labels is available. This version does
+not work for scp. You must set the /etc/ssh/sshd_config
+line:
+   UsePrivilegeSeparation no
+
+The format of /etc/smack/usr is:
+
+   username smack
+
+In keeping with the intent of Smack, configuration data is
+minimal and not strictly required. The most important
+configuration step is mounting the smackfs pseudo filesystem.
+
+Add this line to /etc/fstab:
+
+    smackfs /smack smackfs smackfsdef=* 0 0
+
+and create the /smack directory for mounting.
+
+Smack uses extended attributes (xattrs) to store file labels.
+The command to set a Smack label on a file is:
+
+    # attr -S -s SMACK64 -V "value" path
+
+NOTE: Smack labels are limited to 23 characters. The attr command
+      does not enforce this restriction and can be used to set
+      invalid Smack labels on files.
+
+If you don't do anything special all users will get the floor ("_")
+label when they log in. If you do want to log in via the hacked ssh
+at other labels use the attr command to set the smack value on the
+home directory and it's contents.
+
+You can add access rules in /etc/smack/accesses. They take the form:
+
+    subjectlabel objectlabel access
+
+access is a combination of the letters rwxa which specify the
+kind of access permitted a subject with subjectlabel on an
+object with objectlabel. If there is no rule no access is allowed.
+
+A process can see the smack label it is running with by
+reading /proc/self/attr/current. A privileged process can
+set the process smack by writing there.

+
+Mandatory Access Control
+
+Computer systems employ a variety of schemes to constrain how information is
+shared among the people and services using the machine. Some of these schemes
+allow the program or user to decide what other programs or users are allowed
+access to pieces of data. These schemes are called discretionary access
+control mechanisms because the access control is specified at the discretion
+of the user. Other schemes do not leave the decision regarding what a user or
+program can access up to users or programs. These schemes are called mandatory
+access control mechanisms because you don't have a choice regarding the users
+or programs that have access to pieces of data.
+
+Bell & LaPadula
+
+From the middle of the 1980's until the turn of the century Mandatory Access
+Control (MAC) was very closely associated with the Bell & LaPadula security
+model, a mathematical description of the United States Department of Defense
+policy for marking paper documents. MAC in this form enjoyed a following
+within the Capital Beltway and Scandinavian supercomputer centers but was
+often sited as failing to address general needs.
+
+Domain Type Enforcement
+
+Around the turn of the century Domain Type Enforcement (DTE) became popular.
+This scheme organizes users, programs, and data into domains that are
+protected from each other. This scheme has been widely deployed as a component
+of popular Linux distributions. The administrative overhead required to
+maintain this scheme and the detailed understanding of the whole system
+necessary to provide a secure domain mapping leads to the scheme being
+disabled or used in limited ways in the majority of cases.
+
+Smack
+
+Smack is a Mandatory Access Control mechanism designed to provide useful MAC
+while avoiding the pitfalls of its predecessors. The limitations of Bell &
+LaPadula are addressed by providing a scheme whereby access can be controlled
+according to the requirements of the system and its purpose rather than those
+imposed by an arcane government policy. The complexity of Domain Type
+Enforcement and avoided by defining access controls in terms of the access
+modes already in use.
+
+Smack Terminology
+
+The jargon used to talk about Smack will be familiar to those who have dealt
+with other MAC systems and shouldn't be too difficult for the uninitiated to
+pick up. There are four terms that are used in a specific way and that are
+especially important:
+
+	Subject: A subject is an active entity on the computer system.
+	On Smack a subject is a task, which is in turn the basic unit
+	of execution.
+
+	Object: An object is a passive entity on the computer system.
+	On Smack files of all types, IPC, and tasks can be objects.
+
+	Access: Any attempt by a subject to put information into or get
+	information from an object is an access.
+
+	Label: Data that identifies the Mandatory Access Control
+	characteristics of a subject or an object.
+
+These definitions are consistent with the traditional use in the security
+community. There are also some terms from Linux that are likely to crop up:
+
+	Capability: A task that possesses a capability has permission to
+	violate an aspect of the system security policy, as identified by
+	the specific capability. A task that possesses one or more
+	capabilities is a privileged task, whereas a task with no
+	capabilities is an unprivileged task.
+
+	Privilege: A task that is allowed to violate the system security
+	policy is said to have privilege. As of this writing a task can
+	have privilege either by possessing capabilities or by having an
+	effective user of root.
+
+Smack Basics
+
+Smack is an extension to a Linux system. It enforces additional restrictions
+on what subjects can access which objects, based on the labels attached to
+each of the subject and the object.
+
+Labels
+
+Smack labels are ASCII character strings, one to twenty-three characters in
+length. Single character labels using special characters, that being anything
+other than a letter or digit, are reserved for use by the Smack development
+team. Smack labels are unstructured, case sensitive, and the only operation
+ever performed on them is comparison for equality. Smack labels cannot
+contain unprintable characters or the "/" (slash) character.
+
+There are some predefined labels:
+
+	_ Pronounced "floor", a single underscore character.
+	^ Pronounced "hat", a single circumflex character.
+	* Pronounced "star", a single asterisk character.
+	? Pronounced "huh", a single question mark character.
+
+Every task on a Smack system is assigned a label. System tasks, such as
+init(8) and systems daemons, are run with the floor ("_") label. User tasks
+are assigned labels according to the specification found in the
+/etc/smack/user configuration file.
+
+Access Rules
+
+Smack uses the traditional access modes of Linux. These modes are read,
+execute, write, and occasionally append. There are a few cases where the
+access mode may not be obvious. These include:
+
+	Signals: A signal is a write operation from the subject task to
+	the object task.
+	Internet Domain IPC: Transmission of a packet is considered a
+	write operation from the source task to the destination task.
+
+Smack restricts access based on the label attached to a subject and the label
+attached to the object it is trying to access. The rules enforced are, in
+order:
+
+	1. Any access requested by a task labeled "*" is denied.
+	2. A read or execute access requested by a task labeled "^"
+	   is permitted.
+	3. A read or execute access requested on an object labeled "_"
+	   is permitted.
+	4. Any access requested on an object labeled "*" is permitted.
+	5. Any access requested by a task on an object with the same
+	   label is permitted.
+	6. Any access requested that is explicitly defined in the loaded
+	   rule set is permitted.
+	7. Any other access is denied.
+
+Smack Access Rules
+
+With the isolation provided by Smack access separation is simple. There are
+many interesting cases where limited access by subjects to objects with
+different labels is desired. One example is the familiar spy model of
+sensitivity, where a scientist working on a highly classified project would be
+able to read documents of lower classifications and anything she writes will
+be "born" highly classified. To accommodate such schemes Smack includes a
+mechanism for specifying rules allowing access between labels.
+
+Access Rule Format
+
+The format of an access rule is:
+
+	subject-label object-label access
+
+Where subject-label is the Smack label of the task, object-label is the Smack
+label of the thing being accessed, and access is a string specifying the sort
+of access allowed. The Smack labels are limited to 23 characters. The access
+specification is searched for letters that describe access modes:
+
+	a: indicates that append access should be granted.
+	r: indicates that read access should be granted.
+	w: indicates that write access should be granted.
+	x: indicates that execute access should be granted.
+
+Uppercase values for the specification letters are allowed as well.
+Access mode specifications can be in any order. Examples of acceptable rules
+are:
+
+	TopSecret Secret  rx
+	Secret    Unclass R
+	Manager   Game    x
+	User      HR      w
+	New       Old     rRrRr
+	Closed    Off     -
+
+Examples of unacceptable rules are:
+
+	Top Secret Secret     rx
+	Ace        Ace        r
+	Odd        spells     waxbeans
+
+Spaces are not allowed in labels. Since a subject always has access to files
+with the same label specifying a rule for that case is pointless. Only
+valid letters (rwxaRWXA) and the dash ('-') character are allowed in
+access specifications. The dash is a placeholder, so "a-r" is the same
+as "ar". A lone dash is used to specify that no access should be allowed.
+
+Applying Access Rules
+
+The developers of Linux rarely define new sorts of things, usually importing
+schemes and concepts from other systems. Most often, the other systems are
+variants of Unix. Unix has many endearing properties, but consistency of
+access control models is not one of them. Smack strives to treat accesses as
+uniformly as is sensible while keeping with the spirit of the underlying
+mechanism.
+
+File system objects including files, directories, named pipes, symbolic links,
+and devices require access permissions that closely match those used by mode
+bit access. To open a file for reading read access is required on the file. To
+search a directory requires execute access. Creating a file with write access
+requires both read and write access on the containing directory. Deleting a
+file requires read and write access to the file and to the containing
+directory. It is possible that a user may be able to see that a file exists
+but not any of its attributes by the circumstance of having read access to the
+containing directory but not to the differently labeled file. This is an
+artifact of the file name being data in the directory, not a part of the file.
+
+IPC objects, message queues, semaphore sets, and memory segments exist in flat
+namespaces and access requests are only required to match the object in
+question.
+
+Process objects reflect tasks on the system and the Smack label used to access
+them is the same Smack label that the task would use for its own access
+attempts. Sending a signal via the kill() system call is a write operation
+from the signaler to the recipient. Debugging a process requires both reading
+and writing. Creating a new task is an internal operation that results in two
+tasks with identical Smack labels and requires no access checks.
+
+Sockets are data structures attached to processes and sending a packet from
+one process to another requires that the sender have write access to the
+receiver. The receiver is not required to have read access to the sender.
+
+Setting Access Rules
+
+The configuration file /etc/smack/accesses contains the rules to be set at
+system startup. The contents are written to the special file /smack/load.
+Rules can be written to /smack/load at any time and take effect immediately.
+For any pair of subject and object labels there can be only one rule, with the
+most recently specified overriding any earlier specification.
+
+The program smackload is provided to ensure data is formatted
+properly when written to /smack/load. This program reads lines
+of the form
+
+    subjectlabel objectlabel mode.
+
+Task Attribute
+
+The Smack label of a process can be read from /proc/<pid>/attr/current. A
+process can read its own Smack label from /proc/self/attr/current. A
+privileged process can change its own Smack label by writing to
+/proc/self/attr/current but not the label of another process.
+
+File Attribute
+
+The Smack label of a filesystem object is stored as an extended attribute
+named SMACK64 on the file. This attribute is in the security namespace. It can
+only be changed by a process with privilege.
+
+Privilege
+
+A process with CAP_MAC_OVERRIDE is privileged.
+
+Smack Networking
+
+As mentioned before, Smack enforces access control on network protocol
+transmissions. Every packet sent by a Smack process is tagged with its Smack
+label. This is done by adding a CIPSO tag to the header of the IP packet. Each
+packet received is expected to have a CIPSO tag that identifies the label and
+if it lacks such a tag the network ambient label is assumed. Before the packet
+is delivered a check is made to determine that a subject with the label on the
+packet has write access to the receiving process and if that is not the case
+the packet is dropped.
+
+CIPSO Configuration
+
+It is normally unnecessary to specify the CIPSO configuration. The default
+values used by the system handle all internal cases. Smack will compose CIPSO
+label values to match the Smack labels being used without administrative
+intervention. Unlabeled packets that come into the system will be given the
+ambient label.
+
+Smack requires configuration in the case where packets from a system that is
+not smack that speaks CIPSO may be encountered. Usually this will be a Trusted
+Solaris system, but there are other, less widely deployed systems out there.
+CIPSO provides 3 important values, a Domain Of Interpretation (DOI), a level,
+and a category set with each packet. The DOI is intended to identify a group
+of systems that use compatible labeling schemes, and the DOI specified on the
+smack system must match that of the remote system or packets will be
+discarded. The DOI is 3 by default. The value can be read from /smack/doi and
+can be changed by writing to /smack/doi.
+
+The label and category set are mapped to a Smack label as defined in
+/etc/smack/cipso.
+
+A Smack/CIPSO mapping has the form:
+
+	smack level [category [category]*]
+
+Smack does not expect the level or category sets to be related in any
+particular way and does not assume or assign accesses based on them. Some
+examples of mappings:
+
+	TopSecret 7
+	TS:A,B    7 1 2
+	SecBDE    5 2 4 6
+	RAFTERS   7 12 26
+
+The ":" and "," characters are permitted in a Smack label but have no special
+meaning.
+
+The mapping of Smack labels to CIPSO values is defined by writing to
+/smack/cipso. Again, the format of data written to this special file
+is highly restrictive, so the program smackcipso is provided to
+ensure the writes are done properly. This program takes mappings
+on the standard input and sends them to /smack/cipso properly.
+
+In addition to explicit mappings Smack supports direct CIPSO mappings. One
+CIPSO level is used to indicate that the category set passed in the packet is
+in fact an encoding of the Smack label. The level used is 250 by default. The
+value can be read from /smack/direct and changed by writing to /smack/direct.
+
+Socket Attributes
+
+There are two attributes that are associated with sockets. These attributes
+can only be set by privileged tasks, but any task can read them for their own
+sockets.
+
+	SMACK64IPIN: The Smack label of the task object. A privileged
+	program that will enforce policy may set this to the star label.
+
+	SMACK64IPOUT: The Smack label transmitted with outgoing packets.
+	A privileged program may set this to match the label of another
+	task with which it hopes to communicate.
+
+Writing Applications for Smack
+
+There are three sorts of applications that will run on a Smack system. How an
+application interacts with Smack will determine what it will have to do to
+work properly under Smack.
+
+Smack Ignorant Applications
+
+By far the majority of applications have no reason whatever to care about the
+unique properties of Smack. Since invoking a program has no impact on the
+Smack label associated with the process the only concern likely to arise is
+whether the process has execute access to the program.
+
+Smack Relevant Applications
+
+Some programs can be improved by teaching them about Smack, but do not make
+any security decisions themselves. The utility ls(1) is one example of such a
+program.
+
+Smack Enforcing Applications
+
+These are special programs that not only know about Smack, but participate in
+the enforcement of system policy. In most cases these are the programs that
+set up user sessions. There are also network services that provide information
+to processes running with various labels.
+
+File System Interfaces
+
+Smack maintains labels on file system objects using extended attributes. The
+Smack label of a file, directory, or other file system object can be obtained
+using getxattr(2).
+
+	len = getxattr("/", "security.SMACK64", value, sizeof (value));
+
+will put the Smack label of the root directory into value. A privileged
+process can set the Smack label of a file system object with setxattr(2).
+
+	len = strlen("Rubble");
+	rc = setxattr("/foo", "security.SMACK64", "Rubble", len, 0);
+
+will set the Smack label of /foo to "Rubble" if the program has appropriate
+privilege.
+
+Socket Interfaces
+
+The socket attributes can be read using fgetxattr(2).
+
+A privileged process can set the Smack label of outgoing packets with
+fsetxattr(2).
+
+	len = strlen("Rubble");
+	rc = fsetxattr(fd, "security.SMACK64IPOUT", "Rubble", len, 0);
+
+will set the Smack label "Rubble" on packets going out from the socket if the
+program has appropriate privilege.
+
+	rc = fsetxattr(fd, "security.SMACK64IPIN, "*", strlen("*"), 0);
+
+will set the Smack label "*" as the object label against which incoming
+packets will be checked if the program has appropriate privilege.
+
+Administration
+
+Smack supports some mount options:
+
+	smackfsdef=label: specifies the label to give files that lack

+Memory Controller
+
+Salient features

+b. The infrastructure allows easy addition of other types of memory to control
+c. Provides *zero overhead* for non memory controller users

+
+NOTE: Swap Cache (unmapped) is not accounted now.
+
+Benefits and Purpose of the memory controller
+
+The memory controller isolates the memory behaviour of a group of tasks
+from the rest of the system. The article on LWN [12] mentions some probable
+uses of the memory controller. The memory controller can be used to
+
+a. Isolate an application or a group of applications
+   Memory hungry applications can be isolated and limited to a smaller
+   amount of memory.
+b. Create a cgroup with limited amount of memory, this can be used
+   as a good alternative to booting with mem=XXXX.
+c. Virtualization solutions can control the amount of memory they want
+   to assign to a virtual machine instance.
+d. A CD/DVD burner could control the amount of memory used by the
+   rest of the system to ensure that burning does not fail due to lack
+   of available memory.
+e. There are several other use cases, find one or use the controller just
+   for fun (to learn and hack on the VM subsystem).
+
+1. History
+
+The memory controller has a long history. A request for comments for the memory
+controller was posted by Balbir Singh [1]. At the time the RFC was posted
+there were several implementations for memory control. The goal of the
+RFC was to build consensus and agreement for the minimal features required
+for memory control. The first RSS controller was posted by Balbir Singh[2]
+in Feb 2007. Pavel Emelianov [3][4][5] has since posted three versions of the
+RSS controller. At OLS, at the resource management BoF, everyone suggested
+that we handle both page cache and RSS together. Another request was raised
+to allow user space handling of OOM. The current memory controller is
+at version 6; it combines both mapped (RSS) and unmapped Page
+Cache Control [11].
+
+2. Memory Control
+
+Memory is a unique resource in the sense that it is present in a limited
+amount. If a task requires a lot of CPU processing, the task can spread
+its processing over a period of hours, days, months or years, but with
+memory, the same physical memory needs to be reused to accomplish the task.
+
+The memory controller implementation has been divided into phases. These
+are:
+
+1. Memory controller
+2. mlock(2) controller
+3. Kernel user memory accounting and slab control
+4. user mappings length controller
+
+The memory controller is the first controller developed.
+
+2.1. Design
+
+The core of the design is a counter called the res_counter. The res_counter
+tracks the current memory usage and limit of the group of processes associated
+with the controller. Each cgroup has a memory controller specific data
+structure (mem_cgroup) associated with it.
+

+           +---------------+           +---------------+
+
+             (Figure 1: Hierarchy of Accounting)
+
+
+Figure 1 shows the important aspects of the controller
+
+1. Accounting happens per cgroup
+2. Each mm_struct knows about which cgroup it belongs to
+3. Each page has a pointer to the page_cgroup, which in turn knows the
+   cgroup it belongs to
+
+The accounting is done as follows: mem_cgroup_charge() is invoked to setup
+the necessary data structures and check if the cgroup that is being charged
+is over its limit. If it is then reclaim is invoked on the cgroup.
+More details can be found in the reclaim section of this document.
+If everything goes well, a page meta-data-structure called page_cgroup is
+allocated and associated with the page.  This routine also adds the page to
+the per cgroup LRU.
+
+2.2.1 Accounting details
+
+All mapped pages (RSS) and unmapped user pages (Page Cache) are accounted.
+RSS pages are accounted at the time of page_add_*_rmap() unless they've already
+been accounted for earlier. A file page will be accounted for as Page Cache;
+it's mapped into the page tables of a process, duplicate accounting is carefully
+avoided. Page Cache pages are accounted at the time of add_to_page_cache().
+The corresponding routines that remove a page from the page tables or removes
+a page from Page Cache is used to decrement the accounting counters of the
+cgroup.
+
+2.3 Shared Page Accounting
+
+Shared pages are accounted on the basis of the first touch approach. The
+cgroup that first touches a page is accounted for the page. The principle
+behind this approach is that a cgroup that aggressively uses a shared
+page will eventually get charged for it (once it is uncharged from
+the cgroup that brought it in -- this will happen on memory pressure).
+
+2.4 Reclaim
+
+Each cgroup maintains a per cgroup LRU that consists of an active
+and inactive list. When a cgroup goes over its limit, we first try
+to reclaim memory from the cgroup so as to make space for the new
+pages that the cgroup has touched. If the reclaim is unsuccessful,
+an OOM routine is invoked to select and kill the bulkiest task in the
+cgroup.
+
+The reclaim algorithm has not been modified for cgroups, except that
+pages that are selected for reclaiming come from the per cgroup LRU
+list.
+
+2. Locking
+
+The memory controller uses the following hierarchy
+
+1. zone->lru_lock is used for selecting pages to be isolated
+2. mem->per_zone->lru_lock protects the per cgroup LRU (per zone)
+3. lock_page_cgroup() is used to protect page->page_cgroup
+
+3. User Interface
+
+0. Configuration
+
+a. Enable CONFIG_CGROUPS
+b. Enable CONFIG_RESOURCE_COUNTERS
+c. Enable CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_CONT
+
+1. Prepare the cgroups
+# mkdir -p /cgroups
+# mount -t cgroup none /cgroups -o memory
+
+2. Make the new group and move bash into it
+# mkdir /cgroups/0
+# echo $$ >  /cgroups/0/tasks
+
+Since now we're in the 0 cgroup,
+We can alter the memory limit:
+# echo -n 4M > /cgroups/0/memory.limit_in_bytes
+
+NOTE: We can use a suffix (k, K, m, M, g or G) to indicate values in kilo,
+mega or gigabytes.
+
+# cat /cgroups/0/memory.limit_in_bytes
+4194304 Bytes
+
+NOTE: The interface has now changed to display the usage in bytes
+instead of pages
+
+We can check the usage:
+# cat /cgroups/0/memory.usage_in_bytes
+1216512 Bytes
+
+A successful write to this file does not guarantee a successful set of
+this limit to the value written into the file.  This can be due to a
+number of factors, such as rounding up to page boundaries or the total
+availability of memory on the system.  The user is required to re-read
+this file after a write to guarantee the value committed by the kernel.
+
+# echo -n 1 > memory.limit_in_bytes
+# cat memory.limit_in_bytes
+4096 Bytes
+
+The memory.failcnt field gives the number of times that the cgroup limit was
+exceeded.
+
+The memory.stat file gives accounting information. Now, the number of
+caches, RSS and Active pages/Inactive pages are shown.
+
+The memory.force_empty gives an interface to drop *all* charges by force.
+
+# echo -n 1 > memory.force_empty
+
+will drop all charges in cgroup. Currently, this is maintained for test.
+
+4. Testing
+
+Balbir posted lmbench, AIM9, LTP and vmmstress results [10] and [11].
+Apart from that v6 has been tested with several applications and regular
+daily use. The controller has also been tested on the PPC64, x86_64 and
+UML platforms.
+
+4.1 Troubleshooting
+
+Sometimes a user might find that the application under a cgroup is
+terminated. There are several causes for this:
+
+1. The cgroup limit is too low (just too low to do anything useful)
+2. The user is using anonymous memory and swap is turned off or too low
+
+A sync followed by echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches will help get rid of
+some of the pages cached in the cgroup (page cache pages).
+
+4.2 Task migration
+
+When a task migrates from one cgroup to another, it's charge is not
+carried forward. The pages allocated from the original cgroup still
+remain charged to it, the charge is dropped when the page is freed or
+reclaimed.
+
+4.3 Removing a cgroup
+
+A cgroup can be removed by rmdir, but as discussed in sections 4.1 and 4.2, a
+cgroup might have some charge associated with it, even though all
+tasks have migrated away from it. Such charges are automatically dropped at
+rmdir() if there are no tasks.
+
+4.4 Choosing what to account  -- Page Cache (unmapped) vs RSS (mapped)?
+
+The type of memory accounted by the cgroup can be limited to just
+mapped pages by writing "1" to memory.control_type field
+
+echo -n 1 > memory.control_type
+
+5. TODO
+
+1. Add support for accounting huge pages (as a separate controller)
+2. Make per-cgroup scanner reclaim not-shared pages first
+3. Teach controller to account for shared-pages
+4. Start reclamation when the limit is lowered
+5. Start reclamation in the background when the limit is
+   not yet hit but the usage is getting closer
+
+Summary
+
+Overall, the memory controller has been a stable controller and has been
+commented and discussed quite extensively in the community.

+				cpuidle
+
+General Information:
+
+Various CPUs today support multiple idle levels that are differentiated
+by varying exit latencies and power consumption during idle.
+cpuidle is a generic in-kernel infrastructure that separates
+idle policy (governor) from idle mechanism (driver) and provides a
+standardized infrastructure to support independent development of
+governors and drivers.
+
+cpuidle resides under drivers/cpuidle.
+
+Boot options:
+"cpuidle_sysfs_switch"
+enables current_governor interface in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/,
+which can be used to switch governors at run time. This boot option
+is meant for developer testing only. In normal usage, kernel picks the
+best governor based on governor ratings.

+* disable() to disable governor for a particular device
+* select() to select an idle state to enter
+* reflect() called after returning from the idle state, which can be used

+
+More than one governor can be registered at the same time and
+users can switch between drivers using /sysfs interface (when enabled).
+More than one governor part is supported for developers to easily experiment
+with different governors. By default, most optimal governor based on your

+Mount Options
+=============
+
+Parsing options
+---------------
+
+On mount and remount the filesystem is passed a string containing a
+comma separated list of mount options.  The options can have either of
+these forms:
+
+  option
+  option=value
+
+The <linux/parser.h> header defines an API that helps parse these
+options.  There are plenty of examples on how to use it in existing
+filesystems.
+
+Showing options
+---------------
+
+If a filesystem accepts mount options, it must define show_options()
+to show all the currently active options.  The rules are:
+
+  - options MUST be shown which are not default or their values differ
+    from the default

+
+
+GPIO implementor's framework (OPTIONAL)
+=======================================
+As noted earlier, there is an optional implementation framework making it
+easier for platforms to support different kinds of GPIO controller using
+the same programming interface.
+
+As a debugging aid, if debugfs is available a /sys/kernel/debug/gpio file
+will be found there.  That will list all the controllers registered through
+this framework, and the state of the GPIOs currently in use.
+
+
+Controller Drivers: gpio_chip
+-----------------------------
+In this framework each GPIO controller is packaged as a "struct gpio_chip"
+with information common to each controller of that type:
+
+ - methods to establish GPIO direction
+ - methods used to access GPIO values
+ - flag saying whether calls to its methods may sleep
+ - optional debugfs dump method (showing extra state like pullup config)
+ - label for diagnostics
+
+There is also per-instance data, which may come from device.platform_data:
+the number of its first GPIO, and how many GPIOs it exposes.
+
+The code implementing a gpio_chip should support multiple instances of the
+controller, possibly using the driver model.  That code will configure each
+gpio_chip and issue gpiochip_add().  Removing a GPIO controller should be
+rare; use gpiochip_remove() when it is unavoidable.
+
+Most often a gpio_chip is part of an instance-specific structure with state
+not exposed by the GPIO interfaces, such as addressing, power management,
+and more.  Chips such as codecs will have complex non-GPIO state,
+
+Any debugfs dump method should normally ignore signals which haven't been
+requested as GPIOs.  They can use gpiochip_is_requested(), which returns
+either NULL or the label associated with that GPIO when it was requested.
+
+
+Platform Support
+----------------
+To support this framework, a platform's Kconfig will "select HAVE_GPIO_LIB"
+and arrange that its <asm/gpio.h> includes <asm-generic/gpio.h> and defines
+three functions: gpio_get_value(), gpio_set_value(), and gpio_cansleep().
+They may also want to provide a custom value for ARCH_NR_GPIOS.
+
+Trivial implementations of those functions can directly use framework
+code, which always dispatches through the gpio_chip:
+
+  #define gpio_get_value	__gpio_get_value
+  #define gpio_set_value	__gpio_set_value
+  #define gpio_cansleep		__gpio_cansleep
+
+Fancier implementations could instead define those as inline functions with
+logic optimizing access to specific SOC-based GPIOs.  For example, if the
+referenced GPIO is the constant "12", getting or setting its value could
+cost as little as two or three instructions, never sleeping.  When such an
+optimization is not possible those calls must delegate to the framework
+code, costing at least a few dozen instructions.  For bitbanged I/O, such
+instruction savings can be significant.
+
+For SOCs, platform-specific code defines and registers gpio_chip instances
+for each bank of on-chip GPIOs.  Those GPIOs should be numbered/labeled to
+match chip vendor documentation, and directly match board schematics.  They
+may well start at zero and go up to a platform-specific limit.  Such GPIOs
+are normally integrated into platform initialization to make them always be
+available, from arch_initcall() or earlier; they can often serve as IRQs.
+
+
+Board Support
+-------------
+For external GPIO controllers -- such as I2C or SPI expanders, ASICs, multi
+function devices, FPGAs or CPLDs -- most often board-specific code handles
+registering controller devices and ensures that their drivers know what GPIO
+numbers to use with gpiochip_add().  Their numbers often start right after
+platform-specific GPIOs.
+
+For example, board setup code could create structures identifying the range
+of GPIOs that chip will expose, and passes them to each GPIO expander chip
+using platform_data.  Then the chip driver's probe() routine could pass that
+data to gpiochip_add().
+
+Initialization order can be important.  For example, when a device relies on
+an I2C-based GPIO, its probe() routine should only be called after that GPIO
+becomes available.  That may mean the device should not be registered until
+calls for that GPIO can work.  One way to address such dependencies is for
+such gpio_chip controllers to provide setup() and teardown() callbacks to
+board specific code; those board specific callbacks would register devices
+once all the necessary resources are available.

+Kretprobes also provides an optional user-specified handler which runs

+Acer Laptop WMI Extras Driver
+http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi
+Version 0.1
+9th February 2008
+
+Copyright 2007-2008 Carlos Corbacho <carlos@strangeworlds.co.uk>
+
+acer-wmi is a driver to allow you to control various parts of your Acer laptop
+hardware under Linux which are exposed via ACPI-WMI.
+
+This driver completely replaces the old out-of-tree acer_acpi, which I am
+currently maintaining for bug fixes only on pre-2.6.25 kernels. All development
+work is now focused solely on acer-wmi.
+
+Disclaimer
+**********
+
+Acer and Wistron have provided nothing towards the development acer_acpi or
+acer-wmi. All information we have has been through the efforts of the developers
+and the users to discover as much as possible about the hardware.
+
+As such, I do warn that this could break your hardware - this is extremely
+unlikely of course, but please bear this in mind.
+
+Background
+**********
+
+acer-wmi is derived from acer_acpi, originally developed by Mark
+Smith in 2005, then taken over by Carlos Corbacho in 2007, in order to activate
+the wireless LAN card under a 64-bit version of Linux, as acerhk[1] (the
+previous solution to the problem) relied on making 32 bit BIOS calls which are
+not possible in kernel space from a 64 bit OS.
+
+[1] acerhk: http://www.cakey.de/acerhk/
+
+Supported Hardware
+******************
+
+Please see the website for the current list of known working hardare:
+
+http://code.google.com/p/aceracpi/wiki/SupportedHardware
+
+If your laptop is not listed, or listed as unknown, and works with acer-wmi,
+please contact me with a copy of the DSDT.
+
+If your Acer laptop doesn't work with acer-wmi, I would also like to see the
+DSDT.
+
+To send me the DSDT, as root/sudo:
+
+cat /sys/firmware/acpi/DSDT > dsdt
+
+And send me the resulting 'dsdt' file.
+
+Usage
+*****
+
+On Acer laptops, acer-wmi should already be autoloaded based on DMI matching.
+For non-Acer laptops, until WMI based autoloading support is added, you will
+need to manually load acer-wmi.
+
+acer-wmi creates /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi, and fills it with various
+files whose usage is detailed below, which enables you to control some of the
+following (varies between models):
+
+* the wireless LAN card radio
+* inbuilt Bluetooth adapter
+* inbuilt 3G card
+* mail LED of your laptop
+* brightness of the LCD panel
+
+Wireless
+********
+
+With regards to wireless, all acer-wmi does is enable the radio on the card. It
+is not responsible for the wireless LED - once the radio is enabled, this is
+down to the wireless driver for your card. So the behaviour of the wireless LED,
+once you enable the radio, will depend on your hardware and driver combination.
+
+e.g. With the BCM4318 on the Acer Aspire 5020 series:
+
+ndiswrapper: Light blinks on when transmitting
+bcm43xx/b43: Solid light, blinks off when transmitting
+
+Wireless radio control is unconditionally enabled - all Acer laptops that support
+acer-wmi come with built-in wireless. However, should you feel so inclined to
+ever wish to remove the card, or swap it out at some point, please get in touch
+with me, as we may well be able to gain some data on wireless card detection.
+
+To read the status of the wireless radio (0=off, 1=on):
+cat /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/wireless
+
+To enable the wireless radio:
+echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/wireless
+
+To disable the wireless radio:
+echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/wireless
+
+To set the state of the wireless radio when loading acer-wmi, pass:
+wireless=X (where X is 0 or 1)
+
+Bluetooth
+*********
+
+For bluetooth, this is an internal USB dongle, so once enabled, you will get
+a USB device connection event, and a new USB device appears. When you disable
+bluetooth, you get the reverse - a USB device disconnect event, followed by the
+device disappearing again.
+
+Bluetooth is autodetected by acer-wmi, so if you do not have a bluetooth module
+installed in your laptop, this file won't exist (please be aware that it is
+quite common for Acer not to fit bluetooth to their laptops - so just because
+you have a bluetooth button on the laptop, doesn't mean that bluetooth is
+installed).
+
+For the adventurously minded - if you want to buy an internal bluetooth
+module off the internet that is compatible with your laptop and fit it, then
+it will work just fine with acer-wmi.
+
+To read the status of the bluetooth module (0=off, 1=on):
+cat /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/wireless
+
+To enable the bluetooth module:
+echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/bluetooth
+
+To disable the bluetooth module:
+echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/bluetooth
+
+To set the state of the bluetooth module when loading acer-wmi, pass:
+bluetooth=X (where X is 0 or 1)
+
+3G
+**
+
+3G is currently not autodetected, so the 'threeg' file is always created under
+sysfs. So far, no-one in possession of an Acer laptop with 3G built-in appears to
+have tried Linux, or reported back, so we don't have any information on this.
+
+If you have an Acer laptop that does have a 3G card in, please contact me so we
+can properly detect these, and find out a bit more about them.
+
+To read the status of the 3G card (0=off, 1=on):
+cat /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/threeg
+
+To enable the 3G card:
+echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/threeg
+
+To disable the 3G card:
+echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/threeg
+
+To set the state of the 3G card when loading acer-wmi, pass:
+threeg=X (where X is 0 or 1)
+
+Mail LED
+********
+
+This can be found in most older Acer laptops supported by acer-wmi, and many
+newer ones - it is built into the 'mail' button, and blinks when active.
+
+On newer (WMID) laptops though, we have no way of detecting the mail LED. If
+your laptop identifies itself in dmesg as a WMID model, then please try loading
+acer_acpi with:
+
+force_series=2490
+
+This will use a known alternative method of reading/ writing the mail LED. If
+it works, please report back to me with the DMI data from your laptop so this
+can be added to acer-wmi.
+
+The LED is exposed through the LED subsystem, and can be found in:
+
+/sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/leds/acer-mail:green/
+
+The mail LED is autodetected, so if you don't have one, the LED device won't
+be registered.
+
+If you have a mail LED that is not green, please report this to me.
+
+Backlight
+*********
+
+The backlight brightness control is available on all acer-wmi supported
+hardware. The maximum brightness level is usually 15, but on some newer laptops
+it's 10 (this is again autodetected).
+
+The backlight is exposed through the backlight subsystem, and can be found in:
+
+/sys/devices/platform/acer-wmi/backlight/acer-wmi/

+Hardware accelerated blink of LEDs
+==================================
+
+Some LEDs can be programmed to blink without any CPU interaction. To
+support this feature, a LED driver can optionally implement the
+blink_set() function (see <linux/leds.h>). If implemeted, triggers can
+attempt to use it before falling back to software timers. The blink_set()
+function should return 0 if the blink setting is supported, or -EINVAL

+
+The blink_set() function should choose a user friendly blinking
+value if it is called with *delay_on==0 && *delay_off==0 parameters. In
+this case the driver should give back the chosen value through delay_on
+and delay_off parameters to the leds subsystem.

+			   =========================
+			   MN10300 FUNCTION CALL ABI
+			   =========================
+
+=======
+GENERAL
+=======
+
+The MN10300/AM33 kernel runs in little-endian mode; big-endian mode is not
+supported.
+
+The stack grows downwards, and should always be 32-bit aligned. There are
+separate stack pointer registers for userspace and the kernel.
+
+
+================
+ARGUMENT PASSING
+================
+
+The first two arguments (assuming up to 32-bits per argument) to a function are
+passed in the D0 and D1 registers respectively; all other arguments are passed
+on the stack.
+
+If 64-bit arguments are being passed, then they are never split between
+registers and the stack. If the first argument is a 64-bit value, it will be
+passed in D0:D1. If the first argument is not a 64-bit value, but the second
+is, the second will be passed entirely on the stack and D1 will be unused.
+
+Arguments smaller than 32-bits are not coelesced within a register or a stack
+word. For example, two byte-sized arguments will always be passed in separate
+registers or word-sized stack slots.
+
+
+=================
+CALLING FUNCTIONS
+=================
+
+The caller must allocate twelve bytes on the stack for the callee's use before
+it inserts a CALL instruction. The CALL instruction will write into the TOS
+word, but won't actually modify the stack pointer; similarly, the RET
+instruction reads from the TOS word of the stack, but doesn't move the stack
+pointer beyond it.
+
+
+	Stack:
+	|		|
+	|		|
+	|---------------| SP+20
+	| 4th Arg	|
+	|---------------| SP+16
+	| 3rd Arg	|
+	|---------------| SP+12
+	| D1 Save Slot	|
+	|---------------| SP+8
+	| D0 Save Slot	|
+	|---------------| SP+4
+	| Return Addr	|
+	|---------------| SP
+	|		|
+	|		|
+
+
+The caller must leave space on the stack (hence an allocation of twelve bytes)
+in which the callee may store the first two arguments.
+
+
+============
+RETURN VALUE
+============
+
+The return value is passed in D0 for an integer (or D0:D1 for a 64-bit value),
+or A0 for a pointer.
+
+If the return value is a value larger than 64-bits, or is a structure or an
+array, then a hidden first argument will be passed to the callee by the caller:
+this will point to a piece of memory large enough to hold the result of the
+function. In this case, the callee will return the value in that piece of
+memory, and no value will be returned in D0 or A0.
+
+
+===================
+REGISTER CLOBBERING
+===================
+
+The values in certain registers may be clobbered by the callee, and other
+values must be saved:
+
+	Clobber:	D0-D1, A0-A1, E0-E3
+	Save:		D2-D3, A2-A3, E4-E7, SP
+
+All other non-supervisor-only registers are clobberable (such as MDR, MCRL,
+MCRH).
+
+
+=================
+SPECIAL REGISTERS
+=================
+
+Certain ordinary registers may carry special usage for the compiler:
+
+	A3:	Frame pointer
+	E2:	TLS pointer
+
+
+==========
+KERNEL ABI
+==========
+
+The kernel may use a slightly different ABI internally.
+
+ (*) E2
+
+     If CONFIG_MN10300_CURRENT_IN_E2 is defined, then the current task pointer
+     will be kept in the E2 register, and that register will be marked
+     unavailable for the compiler to use as a scratch register.
+
+     Normally the kernel uses something like:
+
+	MOV	SP,An
+	AND	0xFFFFE000,An
+	MOV	(An),Rm		// Rm holds current
+	MOV	(yyy,Rm)	// Access current->yyy
+
+     To find the address of current; but since this option permits current to
+     be carried globally in an register, it can use:
+
+	MOV	(yyy,E2)	// Access current->yyy
+
+     instead.
+
+
+===============
+SYSTEM CALL ABI
+===============
+
+System calls are called with the following convention:
+
+	REGISTER	ENTRY			EXIT
+	===============	=======================	=======================
+	D0		Syscall number		Return value
+	A0		1st syscall argument	Saved
+	D1		2nd syscall argument	Saved
+	A3		3rd syscall argument	Saved
+	A2		4th syscall argument	Saved
+	D3		5th syscall argument	Saved
+	D2		6th syscall argument	Saved
+
+All other registers are saved.  The layout is a consequence of the way the MOVM

+PM quality of Service interface.
+
+This interface provides a kernel and user mode interface for registering
+performance expectations by drivers, subsystems and user space applications on
+one of the parameters.
+
+Currently we have {cpu_dma_latency, network_latency, network_throughput} as the
+initial set of pm_qos parameters.
+
+The infrastructure exposes multiple misc device nodes one per implemented
+parameter.  The set of parameters implement is defined by pm_qos_power_init()
+and pm_qos_params.h.  This is done because having the available parameters
+being runtime configurable or changeable from a driver was seen as too easy to
+abuse.
+
+For each parameter a list of performance requirements is maintained along with
+an aggregated target value.  The aggregated target value is updated with
+changes to the requirement list or elements of the list.  Typically the
+aggregated target value is simply the max or min of the requirement values held
+in the parameter list elements.
+
+From kernel mode the use of this interface is simple:
+pm_qos_add_requirement(param_id, name, target_value):
+Will insert a named element in the list for that identified PM_QOS parameter
+with the target value.  Upon change to this list the new target is recomputed
+and any registered notifiers are called only if the target value is now
+different.
+
+pm_qos_update_requirement(param_id, name, new_target_value):
+Will search the list identified by the param_id for the named list element and
+then update its target value, calling the notification tree if the aggregated
+target is changed.  with that name is already registered.
+
+pm_qos_remove_requirement(param_id, name):
+Will search the identified list for the named element and remove it, after
+removal it will update the aggregate target and call the notification tree if
+the target was changed as a result of removing the named requirement.
+
+
+From user mode:
+Only processes can register a pm_qos requirement.  To provide for automatic
+cleanup for process the interface requires the process to register its
+parameter requirements in the following way:
+
+To register the default pm_qos target for the specific parameter, the process
+must open one of /dev/[cpu_dma_latency, network_latency, network_throughput]
+
+As long as the device node is held open that process has a registered
+requirement on the parameter.  The name of the requirement is "process_<PID>"
+derived from the current->pid from within the open system call.
+
+To change the requested target value the process needs to write a s32 value to
+the open device node.  This translates to a pm_qos_update_requirement call.
+
+To remove the user mode request for a target value simply close the device
+node.

+In order to schedule multiple groups of realtime tasks each group must
+be assigned a fixed portion of the CPU time available. Without a minimum
+guarantee a realtime group can obviously fall short. A fuzzy upper limit
+is of no use since it cannot be relied upon. Which leaves us with just
+the single fixed portion.
+
+CPU time is divided by means of specifying how much time can be spent
+running in a given period. Say a frame fixed realtime renderer must
+deliver 25 frames a second, which yields a period of 0.04s. Now say
+it will also have to play some music and respond to input, leaving it
+with around 80% for the graphics. We can then give this group a runtime
+of 0.8 * 0.04s = 0.032s.
+
+This way the graphics group will have a 0.04s period with a 0.032s runtime
+limit.

+
+0. Introduction
+
+The generic thermal sysfs provides a set of interfaces for thermal zone devices (sensors)
+and thermal cooling devices (fan, processor...) to register with the thermal management
+solution and to be a part of it.
+
+This how-to focuses on enabling new thermal zone and cooling devices to participate
+in thermal management.
+This solution is platform independent and any type of thermal zone devices and
+cooling devices should be able to make use of the infrastructure.
+
+The main task of the thermal sysfs driver is to expose thermal zone attributes as well
+as cooling device attributes to the user space.
+An intelligent thermal management application can make decisions based on inputs
+from thermal zone attributes (the current temperature and trip point temperature)
+and throttle appropriate devices.

+UNALIGNED MEMORY ACCESSES
+=========================
+
+Linux runs on a wide variety of architectures which have varying behaviour
+when it comes to memory access. This document presents some details about
+unaligned accesses, why you need to write code that doesn't cause them,
+and how to write such code!
+
+
+The definition of an unaligned access
+=====================================
+
+Unaligned memory accesses occur when you try to read N bytes of data starting
+from an address that is not evenly divisible by N (i.e. addr % N != 0).
+For example, reading 4 bytes of data from address 0x10004 is fine, but
+reading 4 bytes of data from address 0x10005 would be an unaligned memory
+access.
+
+The above may seem a little vague, as memory access can happen in different
+ways. The context here is at the machine code level: certain instructions read
+or write a number of bytes to or from memory (e.g. movb, movw, movl in x86
+assembly). As will become clear, it is relatively easy to spot C statements
+which will compile to multiple-byte memory access instructions, namely when
+dealing with types such as u16, u32 and u64.
+
+
+Natural alignment
+=================
+
+The rule mentioned above forms what we refer to as natural alignment:
+When accessing N bytes of memory, the base memory address must be evenly
+divisible by N, i.e. addr % N == 0.
+
+When writing code, assume the target architecture has natural alignment
+requirements.
+
+In reality, only a few architectures require natural alignment on all sizes
+of memory access. However, we must consider ALL supported architectures;
+writing code that satisfies natural alignment requirements is the easiest way
+to achieve full portability.
+
+
+Why unaligned access is bad
+===========================
+
+The effects of performing an unaligned memory access vary from architecture
+to architecture. It would be easy to write a whole document on the differences
+here; a summary of the common scenarios is presented below:
+
+ - Some architectures are able to perform unaligned memory accesses
+   transparently, but there is usually a significant performance cost.
+ - Some architectures raise processor exceptions when unaligned accesses
+   happen. The exception handler is able to correct the unaligned access,
+   at significant cost to performance.
+ - Some architectures raise processor exceptions when unaligned accesses
+   happen, but the exceptions do not contain enough information for the
+   unaligned access to be corrected.
+ - Some architectures are not capable of unaligned memory access, but will
+   silently perform a different memory access to the one that was requested,
+   resulting a a subtle code bug that is hard to detect!
+
+It should be obvious from the above that if your code causes unaligned
+memory accesses to happen, your code will not work correctly on certain
+platforms and will cause performance problems on others.
+
+
+Code that does not cause unaligned access
+=========================================
+
+At first, the concepts above may seem a little hard to relate to actual
+coding practice. After all, you don't have a great deal of control over
+memory addresses of certain variables, etc.
+
+Fortunately things are not too complex, as in most cases, the compiler
+ensures that things will work for you. For example, take the following
+structure:
+
+	struct foo {
+		u16 field1;
+		u32 field2;
+		u8 field3;
+	};
+
+Let us assume that an instance of the above structure resides in memory
+starting at address 0x10000. With a basic level of understanding, it would
+not be unreasonable to expect that accessing field2 would cause an unaligned
+access. You'd be expecting field2 to be located at offset 2 bytes into the
+structure, i.e. address 0x10002, but that address is not evenly divisible
+by 4 (remember, we're reading a 4 byte value here).
+
+Fortunately, the compiler understands the alignment constraints, so in the
+above case it would insert 2 bytes of padding in between field1 and field2.
+Therefore, for standard structure types you can always rely on the compiler
+to pad structures so that accesses to fields are suitably aligned (assuming
+you do not cast the field to a type of different length).
+
+Similarly, you can also rely on the compiler to align variables and function
+parameters to a naturally aligned scheme, based on the size of the type of
+the variable.
+
+At this point, it should be clear that accessing a single byte (u8 or char)
+will never cause an unaligned access, because all memory addresses are evenly
+divisible by one.
+
+On a related topic, with the above considerations in mind you may observe
+that you could reorder the fields in the structure in order to place fields
+where padding would otherwise be inserted, and hence reduce the overall
+resident memory size of structure instances. The optimal layout of the
+above example is:
+
+	struct foo {
+		u32 field2;
+		u16 field1;
+		u8 field3;
+	};
+
+For a natural alignment scheme, the compiler would only have to add a single
+byte of padding at the end of the structure. This padding is added in order
+to satisfy alignment constraints for arrays of these structures.
+
+Another point worth mentioning is the use of __attribute__((packed)) on a
+structure type. This GCC-specific attribute tells the compiler never to
+insert any padding within structures, useful when you want to use a C struct
+to represent some data that comes in a fixed arrangement 'off the wire'.
+
+You might be inclined to believe that usage of this attribute can easily
+lead to unaligned accesses when accessing fields that do not satisfy
+architectural alignment requirements. However, again, the compiler is aware
+of the alignment constraints and will generate extra instructions to perform
+the memory access in a way that does not cause unaligned access. Of course,
+the extra instructions obviously cause a loss in performance compared to the
+non-packed case, so the packed attribute should only be used when avoiding
+structure padding is of importance.
+
+
+Code that causes unaligned access
+=================================
+
+With the above in mind, let's move onto a real life example of a function
+that can cause an unaligned memory access. The following function adapted
+from include/linux/etherdevice.h is an optimized routine to compare two
+ethernet MAC addresses for equality.
+
+unsigned int compare_ether_addr(const u8 *addr1, const u8 *addr2)
+{
+	const u16 *a = (const u16 *) addr1;
+	const u16 *b = (const u16 *) addr2;
+	return ((a[0] ^ b[0]) | (a[1] ^ b[1]) | (a[2] ^ b[2])) != 0;
+}
+
+In the above function, the reference to a[0] causes 2 bytes (16 bits) to
+be read from memory starting at address addr1. Think about what would happen
+if addr1 was an odd address such as 0x10003. (Hint: it'd be an unaligned
+access.)
+
+Despite the potential unaligned access problems with the above function, it
+is included in the kernel anyway but is understood to only work on
+16-bit-aligned addresses. It is up to the caller to ensure this alignment or
+not use this function at all. This alignment-unsafe function is still useful
+as it is a decent optimization for the cases when you can ensure alignment,
+which is true almost all of the time in ethernet networking context.
+
+
+Here is another example of some code that could cause unaligned accesses:
+	void myfunc(u8 *data, u32 value)
+	{
+		[...]
+		*((u32 *) data) = cpu_to_le32(value);
+		[...]
+	}
+
+This code will cause unaligned accesses every time the data parameter points
+to an address that is not evenly divisible by 4.
+
+In summary, the 2 main scenarios where you may run into unaligned access
+problems involve:
+ 1. Casting variables to types of different lengths
+ 2. Pointer arithmetic followed by access to at least 2 bytes of data
+
+
+Avoiding unaligned accesses
+===========================
+
+The easiest way to avoid unaligned access is to use the get_unaligned() and
+put_unaligned() macros provided by the <asm/unaligned.h> header file.
+
+Going back to an earlier example of code that potentially causes unaligned
+access:
+
+	void myfunc(u8 *data, u32 value)
+	{
+		[...]
+		*((u32 *) data) = cpu_to_le32(value);
+		[...]
+	}
+
+To avoid the unaligned memory access, you would rewrite it as follows:
+
+	void myfunc(u8 *data, u32 value)
+	{
+		[...]
+		value = cpu_to_le32(value);
+		put_unaligned(value, (u32 *) data);
+		[...]
+	}
+
+The get_unaligned() macro works similarly. Assuming 'data' is a pointer to
+memory and you wish to avoid unaligned access, its usage is as follows:
+
+	u32 value = get_unaligned((u32 *) data);
+
+These macros work work for memory accesses of any length (not just 32 bits as
+in the examples above). Be aware that when compared to standard access of
+aligned memory, using these macros to access unaligned memory can be costly in
+terms of performance.
+
+If use of such macros is not convenient, another option is to use memcpy(),
+where the source or destination (or both) are of type u8* or unsigned char*.
+Due to the byte-wise nature of this operation, unaligned accesses are avoided.
