The P_Key for any interface is given by the "pkey" file, and the

Datagram vs Connected modes
The IPoIB driver supports two modes of operation: datagram and
connected. The mode is set and read through an interface's
/sys/class/net/<intf name>/mode file.
In datagram mode, the IB UD (Unreliable Datagram) transport is used
and so the interface MTU has is equal to the IB L2 MTU minus the
IPoIB encapsulation header (4 bytes). For example, in a typical IB
fabric with a 2K MTU, the IPoIB MTU will be 2048 - 4 = 2044 bytes.
In connected mode, the IB RC (Reliable Connected) transport is used.
Connected mode is to takes advantage of the connected nature of the
IB transport and allows an MTU up to the maximal IP packet size of
64K, which reduces the number of IP packets needed for handling
large UDP datagrams, TCP segments, etc and increases the performance
for large messages.
In connected mode, the interface's UD QP is still used for multicast
and communication with peers that don't support connected mode. In
this case, RX emulation of ICMP PMTU packets is used to cause the
networking stack to use the smaller UD MTU for these neighbours.
Stateless offloads
If the IB HW supports IPoIB stateless offloads, IPoIB advertises
TCP/IP checksum and/or Large Send (LSO) offloading capability to the
network stack.
Large Receive (LRO) offloading is also implemented and may be turned
on/off using ethtool calls. Currently LRO is supported only for
checksum offload capable devices.
Stateless offloads are supported only in datagram mode.
Interrupt moderation
If the underlying IB device supports CQ event moderation, one can
use ethtool to set interrupt mitigation parameters and thus reduce
the overhead incurred by handling interrupts. The main code path of
IPoIB doesn't use events for TX completion signaling so only RX
moderation is supported.
Debugging Information

rotary-encoder - a generic driver for GPIO connected devices
Daniel Mack <daniel@caiaq.de>, Feb 2009
0. Function
-----------
Rotary encoders are devices which are connected to the CPU or other
peripherals with two wires. The outputs are phase-shifted by 90 degrees
and by triggering on falling and rising edges, the turn direction can
be determined.
The phase diagram of these two outputs look like this:
_____ _____ _____
| | | | | |
Channel A ____| |_____| |_____| |____
: : : : : : : : : : : :
__ _____ _____ _____
| | | | | | |
Channel B |_____| |_____| |_____| |__
: : : : : : : : : : : :
Event a b c d a b c d a b c d
|<-------->|
one step
For more information, please see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder
1. Events / state machine
-------------------------
a) Rising edge on channel A, channel B in low state
This state is used to recognize a clockwise turn
b) Rising edge on channel B, channel A in high state
When entering this state, the encoder is put into 'armed' state,
meaning that there it has seen half the way of a one-step transition.
c) Falling edge on channel A, channel B in high state
This state is used to recognize a counter-clockwise turn
d) Falling edge on channel B, channel A in low state
Parking position. If the encoder enters this state, a full transition
should have happend, unless it flipped back on half the way. The
'armed' state tells us about that.
2. Platform requirements
------------------------
As there is no hardware dependent call in this driver, the platform it is
used with must support gpiolib. Another requirement is that IRQs must be
able to fire on both edges.
3. Board integration
--------------------
To use this driver in your system, register a platform_device with the
name 'rotary-encoder' and associate the IRQs and some specific platform
data with it.
struct rotary_encoder_platform_data is declared in
include/linux/rotary-encoder.h and needs to be filled with the number of
steps the encoder has and can carry information about externally inverted
signals (because of used invertig buffer or other reasons).
Because GPIO to IRQ mapping is platform specific, this information must
be given in seperately to the driver. See the example below.

The kbuild infrastructure for *lds file are used in several
architecture-specific files.
=== 7 Kbuild syntax for exported headers
The kernel include a set of headers that is exported to userspace.
Many headers can be exported as-is but other headers requires a
minimal pre-processing before they are ready for user-space.
The pre-processing does:
- drop kernel specific annotations
- drop include of compiler.h
- drop all sections that is kernel internat (guarded by ifdef __KERNEL__)
Each relevant directory contain a file name "Kbuild" which specify the
headers to be exported.
See subsequent chapter for the syntax of the Kbuild file.
--- 7.1 header-y
header-y specify header files to be exported.
Example:
#include/linux/Kbuild
header-y += usb/
header-y += aio_abi.h
The convention is to list one file per line and
preferably in alphabetic order.
header-y also specify which subdirectories to visit.
A subdirectory is identified by a trailing '/' which
can be seen in the example above for the usb subdirectory.
Subdirectories are visited before their parent directories.
--- 7.2 objhdr-y
objhdr-y specifies generated files to be exported.
Generated files are special as they need to be looked
up in another directory when doing 'make O=...' builds.
Example:
#include/linux/Kbuild
objhdr-y += version.h
--- 7.3 destination-y
When an architecture have a set of exported headers that needs to be
exported to a different directory destination-y is used.
destination-y specify the destination directory for all exported
headers in the file where it is present.
Example:
#arch/xtensa/platforms/s6105/include/platform/Kbuild
destination-y := include/linux
In the example above all exported headers in the Kbuild file
will be located in the directory "include/linux" when exported.
--- 7.4 unifdef-y (deprecated)
unifdef-y is deprecated. A direct replacement is header-y.
