threeeye bc1d038eac REVVL 6 Pro kernel bring-up: full working tree snapshot (2026-09-12)
Squashed backup commit (no shallow-clone history issues) of
xiaomi-mt6833-dev/kernel_xiaomi_mt6833 (lineage-23.2 branch, upstream
commit 9eece662e) plus all fixes applied to get everpal_defconfig building
clean against a modern (GCC 15.2.0) toolchain -- see the previous commit
message on the lineage-23.2 branch (also in this repo history is not
available here since this is a squashed snapshot; full incremental history
lives in the local DL380 checkout and the upstream GitHub remote).

What: /sys/devices/socX
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
The /sys/devices/ directory contains a sub-directory for each
System-on-Chip (SoC) device on a running platform. Information
regarding each SoC can be obtained by reading sysfs files. This
functionality is only available if implemented by the platform.
The directory created for each SoC will also house information
about devices which are commonly contained in /sys/devices/platform.
It has been agreed that if an SoC device exists, its supported
devices would be better suited to appear as children of that SoC.
What: /sys/devices/socX/machine
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
Read-only attribute common to all SoCs. Contains the SoC machine
name (e.g. Ux500).
What: /sys/devices/socX/family
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
Read-only attribute common to all SoCs. Contains SoC family name
(e.g. DB8500).
What: /sys/devices/socX/soc_id
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
Read-only attribute supported by most SoCs. In the case of
ST-Ericsson's chips this contains the SoC serial number.
What: /sys/devices/socX/revision
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
Read-only attribute supported by most SoCs. Contains the SoC's
manufacturing revision number.
What: /sys/devices/socX/process
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
Read-only attribute supported ST-Ericsson's silicon. Contains the
the process by which the silicon chip was manufactured.
What: /sys/bus/soc
Date: January 2012
contact: Lee Jones <lee.jones@linaro.org>
Description:
The /sys/bus/soc/ directory contains the usual sub-folders
expected under most buses. /sys/bus/soc/devices is of particular
interest, as it contains a symlink for each SoC device found on
the system. Each symlink points back into the aforementioned
/sys/devices/socX devices.
