^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  4) Description:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  5) 		Some servers used internally at Google have firmware
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  6) 		that provides callback functionality via explicit SMI
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  7) 		triggers.  Some of the callbacks are similar to those
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  8) 		provided by the EFI runtime services page, but due to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  9) 		historical reasons this different entry-point has been
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 10) 		used.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 11) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 12) 		The gsmi driver implements the kernel's abstraction for
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 13) 		these firmware callbacks.  Currently, this functionality
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 14) 		is limited to handling the system event log and getting
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 15) 		access to EFI-style variables stored in nvram.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 29) 			This file takes a binary blob and passes it onto
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 30) 			the firmware to be timestamped and appended to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 31) 			the system eventlog.  The binary format is
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32) 			interpreted by the firmware and may change from
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33) 			platform to platform.  The only kernel-enforced
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34) 			requirement is that the blob be prefixed with a
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35) 			32bit host-endian type used as part of the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 36) 			firmware call.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 40) 			Writing any value to this file will cause the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 41) 			entire firmware configuration to be reset to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 42) 			"factory defaults".  Callers should assume that
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 43) 			a reboot is required for the configuration to be
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 44) 			cleared.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 48) 			This file is used to clear out a portion/the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 49) 			whole of the system event log.  Values written
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 50) 			should be values between 1 and 100 inclusive (in
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 51) 			ASCII) representing the fraction of the log to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 52) 			clear.  Not all platforms support fractional
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 53) 			clearing though, and this writes to this file
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 54) 			will error out if the firmware doesn't like your
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 55) 			submitted fraction.
