linux-toradex.git/include/uapi/linux/surface_aggregator/cdev.h, branch v5.12-rc7 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules platform/surface: Add Surface Aggregator user-space interface 2021-01-06T23:06:39+00:00 Maximilian Luz luzmaximilian@gmail.com 2020-12-21T18:39:58+00:00 178f6ab77e617c984d6520b92e747075a12676ff Add a misc-device providing user-space access to the Surface Aggregator EC, mainly intended for debugging, testing, and reverse-engineering. This interface gives user-space applications the ability to send requests to the EC and receive the corresponding responses. The device-file is managed by a pseudo platform-device and corresponding driver to avoid dependence on the dedicated bus, allowing it to be loaded in a minimal configuration. A python library and scripts to access this device can be found at [1].
