+What: /sys/class/remoteproc/.../firmware
+Date: October 2016
+Contact: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@mips.com>
+Description: Remote processor firmware
+
+ Reports the name of the firmware currently loaded to the
+ remote processor.
+
+ To change the running firmware, ensure the remote processor is
+ stopped (using /sys/class/remoteproc/.../state) and write a new filename.
+
+What: /sys/class/remoteproc/.../state
+Date: October 2016
+Contact: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@mips.com>
+Description: Remote processor state
+
+ Reports the state of the remote processor, which will be one of:
+
+ - "offline"
+ - "suspended"
+ - "running"
+ - "crashed"
+ - "invalid"
+
+ "offline" means the remote processor is powered off.
+
+ "suspended" means that the remote processor is suspended and
+ must be woken to receive messages.
+
+ "running" is the normal state of an available remote processor
+
+ "crashed" indicates that a problem/crash has been detected on
+ the remote processor.
+
+ "invalid" is returned if the remote processor is in an
+ unknown state.
+
+ Writing this file controls the state of the remote processor.
+ The following states can be written:
+
+ - "start"
+ - "stop"
+
+ Writing "start" will attempt to start the processor running the
+ firmware indicated by, or written to,
+ /sys/class/remoteproc/.../firmware. The remote processor should
+ transition to "running" state.
+
+ Writing "stop" will attempt to halt the remote processor and
+ return it to the "offline" state.

+What: /sys/class/remoteproc/.../name
+Date: August 2019
+KernelVersion: 5.4
+Contact: Suman Anna <s-anna@ti.com>
+Description: Remote processor name
+
+ Reports the name of the remote processor. This can be used by
+ userspace in exactly identifying a remote processor and ease
+ up the usage in modifying the 'firmware' or 'state' files.
+
+What: /sys/class/remoteproc/.../coredump
+Date: July 2020
+Contact: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org>, Ohad Ben-Cohen <ohad@wizery.com>
+Description: Remote processor coredump configuration
+
+ Reports the coredump configuration of the remote processor,
+ which will be one of:
+
+ "disabled"
+ "enabled"
+ "inline"
+
+ "disabled" means no dump will be collected.
+
+ "enabled" means when the remote processor's coredump is
+ collected it will be copied to a separate buffer and that
+ buffer is exposed to userspace.
+
+ "inline" means when the remote processor's coredump is
+ collected userspace will directly read from the remote
+ processor's device memory. Extra buffer will not be used to
+ copy the dump. Also recovery process will not proceed until
+ all data is read by usersapce.
+
+What: /sys/class/remoteproc/.../recovery
+Date: July 2020
+Contact: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org>, Ohad Ben-Cohen <ohad@wizery.com>
+Description: Remote processor recovery mechanism
+
+ Reports the recovery mechanism of the remote processor,
+ which will be one of:
+
+ "enabled"
+ "disabled"
+
+ "enabled" means, the remote processor will be automatically
+ recovered whenever it crashes. Moreover, if the remote
+ processor crashes while recovery is disabled, it will
+ be automatically recovered too as soon as recovery is enabled.
+
+ "disabled" means, a remote processor will remain in a crashed
+ state if it crashes. This is useful for debugging purposes;
+ without it, debugging a crash is substantially harder.
