11 config ARM_SCPI_PROTOCOL
12 tristate "ARM System Control and Power Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol"
13 depends on ARM || ARM64 || COMPILE_TEST
16 System Control and Power Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol is
17 defined for the purpose of communication between the Application
18 Cores(AP) and the System Control Processor(SCP). The MHU peripheral
19 provides a mechanism for inter-processor communication between SCP
22 SCP controls most of the power management on the Application
23 Processors. It offers control and management of: the core/cluster
24 power states, various power domain DVFS including the core/cluster,
25 certain system clocks configuration, thermal sensors and many
28 This protocol library provides interface for all the client drivers
29 making use of the features offered by the SCP.
31 config ARM_SCPI_POWER_DOMAIN
32 tristate "SCPI power domain driver"
33 depends on ARM_SCPI_PROTOCOL || (COMPILE_TEST && OF)
35 select PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS if PM
37 This enables support for the SCPI power domains which can be
38 enabled or disabled via the SCP firmware
40 config ARM_SDE_INTERFACE
41 bool "ARM Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)"
44 The Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI) is an ARM
45 standard for registering callbacks from the platform firmware
46 into the OS. This is typically used to implement RAS notifications.
49 tristate "BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive calls determine boot disk"
52 Say Y or M here if you want to enable BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive
53 Services real mode BIOS calls to determine which disk
54 BIOS tries boot from. This information is then exported via sysfs.
56 This option is experimental and is known to fail to boot on some
57 obscure configurations. Most disk controller BIOS vendors do
58 not yet implement this feature.
61 bool "Sets default behavior for EDD detection to off"
65 Say Y if you want EDD disabled by default, even though it is compiled into the
66 kernel. Say N if you want EDD enabled by default. EDD can be dynamically set
67 using the kernel parameter 'edd={on|skipmbr|off}'.
69 config FIRMWARE_MEMMAP
70 bool "Add firmware-provided memory map to sysfs" if EXPERT
73 Add the firmware-provided (unmodified) memory map to /sys/firmware/memmap.
74 That memory map is used for example by kexec to set up parameter area
75 for the next kernel, but can also be used for debugging purposes.
77 See also Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-memmap.
80 bool "Console device selection via EFI PCDP or HCDP table"
81 depends on ACPI && EFI && IA64
84 If your firmware supplies the PCDP table, and you want to
85 automatically use the primary console device it describes
86 as the Linux console, say Y here.
88 If your firmware supplies the HCDP table, and you want to
89 use the first serial port it describes as the Linux console,
90 say Y here. If your EFI ConOut path contains only a UART
91 device, it will become the console automatically. Otherwise,
92 you must specify the "console=hcdp" kernel boot argument.
94 Neither the PCDP nor the HCDP affects naming of serial devices,
95 so a serial console may be /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, etc, depending
96 on how the driver discovers devices.
98 You must also enable the appropriate drivers (serial, VGA, etc.)
100 See DIG64_HCDPv20_042804.pdf available from
101 <http://www.dig64.org/specifications/>
104 bool "Export DMI identification via sysfs to userspace"
108 Say Y here if you want to query SMBIOS/DMI system identification
109 information from userspace through /sys/class/dmi/id/ or if you want
110 DMI-based module auto-loading.
113 tristate "DMI table support in sysfs"
114 depends on SYSFS && DMI
117 Say Y or M here to enable the exporting of the raw DMI table
118 data via sysfs. This is useful for consuming the data without
119 requiring any access to /dev/mem at all. Tables are found
120 under /sys/firmware/dmi when this option is enabled and
123 config DMI_SCAN_MACHINE_NON_EFI_FALLBACK
126 config ISCSI_IBFT_FIND
127 bool "iSCSI Boot Firmware Table Attributes"
128 depends on X86 && ISCSI_IBFT
131 This option enables the kernel to find the region of memory
132 in which the ISCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) resides. This
133 is necessary for iSCSI Boot Firmware Table Attributes module to work
137 tristate "iSCSI Boot Firmware Table Attributes module"
138 select ISCSI_BOOT_SYSFS
139 select ISCSI_IBFT_FIND if X86
140 depends on ACPI && SCSI && SCSI_LOWLEVEL
143 This option enables support for detection and exposing of iSCSI
144 Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) via sysfs to userspace. If you wish to
145 detect iSCSI boot parameters dynamically during system boot, say Y.
148 config RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE
149 tristate "Raspberry Pi Firmware Driver"
150 depends on BCM2835_MBOX
152 This option enables support for communicating with the firmware on the
156 tristate "QEMU fw_cfg device support in sysfs"
157 depends on SYSFS && (ARM || ARM64 || PARISC || PPC_PMAC || SPARC || X86)
158 depends on HAS_IOPORT_MAP
161 Say Y or M here to enable the exporting of the QEMU firmware
162 configuration (fw_cfg) file entries via sysfs. Entries are
163 found under /sys/firmware/fw_cfg when this option is enabled
166 config FW_CFG_SYSFS_CMDLINE
167 bool "QEMU fw_cfg device parameter parsing"
168 depends on FW_CFG_SYSFS
170 Allow the qemu_fw_cfg device to be initialized via the kernel
171 command line or using a module parameter.
172 WARNING: Using incorrect parameters (base address in particular)
173 may crash your system.
175 config INTEL_STRATIX10_SERVICE
176 tristate "Intel Stratix10 Service Layer"
177 depends on ARCH_INTEL_SOCFPGA && ARM64 && HAVE_ARM_SMCCC
180 Intel Stratix10 service layer runs at privileged exception level,
181 interfaces with the service providers (FPGA manager is one of them)
182 and manages secure monitor call to communicate with secure monitor
183 software at secure monitor exception level.
185 Say Y here if you want Stratix10 service layer support.
187 config INTEL_STRATIX10_RSU
188 tristate "Intel Stratix10 Remote System Update"
189 depends on INTEL_STRATIX10_SERVICE
191 The Intel Remote System Update (RSU) driver exposes interfaces
192 access through the Intel Service Layer to user space via sysfs
193 device attribute nodes. The RSU interfaces report/control some of
194 the optional RSU features of the Stratix 10 SoC FPGA.
196 The RSU provides a way for customers to update the boot
197 configuration of a Stratix 10 SoC device with significantly reduced
198 risk of corrupting the bitstream storage and bricking the system.
200 Enable RSU support if you are using an Intel SoC FPGA with the RSU
201 feature enabled and you want Linux user space control.
203 Say Y here if you want Intel RSU support.
208 config QCOM_SCM_DOWNLOAD_MODE_DEFAULT
209 bool "Qualcomm download mode enabled by default"
212 A device with "download mode" enabled will upon an unexpected
213 warm-restart enter a special debug mode that allows the user to
214 "download" memory content over USB for offline postmortem analysis.
215 The feature can be enabled/disabled on the kernel command line.
217 Say Y here to enable "download mode" by default.
222 depends on X86 || EFI
224 config SYSFB_SIMPLEFB
225 bool "Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer"
228 Firmwares often provide initial graphics framebuffers so the BIOS,
229 bootloader or kernel can show basic video-output during boot for
230 user-guidance and debugging. Historically, x86 used the VESA BIOS
231 Extensions and EFI-framebuffers for this, which are mostly limited
232 to x86 BIOS or EFI systems.
233 This option, if enabled, marks VGA/VBE/EFI framebuffers as generic
234 framebuffers so the new generic system-framebuffer drivers can be
235 used instead. If the framebuffer is not compatible with the generic
236 modes, it is advertised as fallback platform framebuffer so legacy
237 drivers like efifb, vesafb and uvesafb can pick it up.
238 If this option is not selected, all system framebuffers are always
239 marked as fallback platform framebuffers as usual.
241 Note: Legacy fbdev drivers, including vesafb, efifb, uvesafb, will
242 not be able to pick up generic system framebuffers if this option
243 is selected. You are highly encouraged to enable simplefb as
244 replacement if you select this option. simplefb can correctly deal
245 with generic system framebuffers. But you should still keep vesafb
246 and others enabled as fallback if a system framebuffer is
247 incompatible with simplefb.
251 config TI_SCI_PROTOCOL
252 tristate "TI System Control Interface (TISCI) Message Protocol"
253 depends on TI_MESSAGE_MANAGER
255 TI System Control Interface (TISCI) Message Protocol is used to manage
256 compute systems such as ARM, DSP etc with the system controller in
257 complex System on Chip(SoC) such as those found on certain keystone
258 generation SoC from TI.
260 System controller provides various facilities including power
261 management function support.
263 This protocol library is used by client drivers to use the features
264 provided by the system controller.
266 config TRUSTED_FOUNDATIONS
267 bool "Trusted Foundations secure monitor support"
268 depends on ARM && CPU_V7
270 Some devices (including most early Tegra-based consumer devices on
271 the market) are booted with the Trusted Foundations secure monitor
272 active, requiring some core operations to be performed by the secure
273 monitor instead of the kernel.
275 This option allows the kernel to invoke the secure monitor whenever
276 required on devices using Trusted Foundations. See the functions and
277 comments in linux/firmware/trusted_foundations.h or the device tree
278 bindings for "tlm,trusted-foundations" for details on how to use it.
280 Choose N if you don't know what this is about.
282 config TURRIS_MOX_RWTM
283 tristate "Turris Mox rWTM secure firmware driver"
284 depends on ARCH_MVEBU || COMPILE_TEST
285 depends on HAS_DMA && OF
288 select ARMADA_37XX_RWTM_MBOX
290 This driver communicates with the firmware on the Cortex-M3 secure
291 processor of the Turris Mox router. Enable if you are building for
292 Turris Mox, and you will be able to read the device serial number and
293 other manufacturing data and also utilize the Entropy Bit Generator
294 for hardware random number generation.
