+Configuring PCI Endpoint Using CONFIGFS
+=======================================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+The PCI Endpoint Core exposes configfs entry (pci_ep) to configure the
+PCI endpoint function and to bind the endpoint function
+with the endpoint controller. (For introducing other mechanisms to
+configure the PCI Endpoint Function refer to [1]).
+
+Mounting configfs
+=================
+
+The PCI Endpoint Core layer creates pci_ep directory in the mounted configfs
+directory. configfs can be mounted using the following command::
+
+	mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
+
+Directory Structure
+===================
+
+The pci_ep configfs has two directories at its root: controllers and
+functions. Every EPC device present in the system will have an entry in
+the *controllers* directory and every EPF driver present in the system
+will have an entry in the *functions* directory.
+::
+
+	/sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
+		.. controllers/
+		.. functions/
+
+Creating EPF Device
+===================
+
+Every registered EPF driver will be listed in controllers directory. The
+entries corresponding to EPF driver will be created by the EPF core.
+::
+
+	/sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions/
+		.. <EPF Driver1>/
+			... <EPF Device 11>/
+			... <EPF Device 21>/
+			... <EPF Device 31>/
+		.. <EPF Driver2>/
+			... <EPF Device 12>/
+			... <EPF Device 22>/
+
+In order to create a <EPF device> of the type probed by <EPF Driver>, the
+user has to create a directory inside <EPF DriverN>.
+
+Every <EPF device> directory consists of the following entries that can be
+used to configure the standard configuration header of the endpoint function.
+(These entries are created by the framework when any new <EPF Device> is
+created)
+::
+
+		.. <EPF Driver1>/
+			... <EPF Device 11>/
+				... vendorid
+				... deviceid
+				... revid
+				... progif_code
+				... subclass_code
+				... baseclass_code
+				... cache_line_size
+				... subsys_vendor_id
+				... subsys_id
+				... interrupt_pin
+			        ... <Symlink EPF Device 31>/
+                                ... primary/
+			                ... <Symlink EPC Device1>/
+                                ... secondary/
+			                ... <Symlink EPC Device2>/
+
+If an EPF device has to be associated with 2 EPCs (like in the case of
+Non-transparent bridge), symlink of endpoint controller connected to primary
+interface should be added in 'primary' directory and symlink of endpoint
+controller connected to secondary interface should be added in 'secondary'
+directory.
+
+The <EPF Device> directory can have a list of symbolic links
+(<Symlink EPF Device 31>) to other <EPF Device>. These symbolic links should
+be created by the user to represent the virtual functions that are bound to
+the physical function. In the above directory structure <EPF Device 11> is a
+physical function and <EPF Device 31> is a virtual function. An EPF device once
+it's linked to another EPF device, cannot be linked to a EPC device.
+
+EPC Device
+==========
+
+Every registered EPC device will be listed in controllers directory. The
+entries corresponding to EPC device will be created by the EPC core.
+::
+
+	/sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers/
+		.. <EPC Device1>/
+			... <Symlink EPF Device11>/
+			... <Symlink EPF Device12>/
+			... start
+		.. <EPC Device2>/
+			... <Symlink EPF Device21>/
+			... <Symlink EPF Device22>/
+			... start
+
+The <EPC Device> directory will have a list of symbolic links to
+<EPF Device>. These symbolic links should be created by the user to
+represent the functions present in the endpoint device. Only <EPF Device>
+that represents a physical function can be linked to a EPC device.
+
+The <EPC Device> directory will also have a *start* field. Once
+"1" is written to this field, the endpoint device will be ready to
+establish the link with the host. This is usually done after
+all the EPF devices are created and linked with the EPC device.
+::
+
+			 | controllers/
+				| <Directory: EPC name>/
+					| <Symbolic Link: Function>
+					| start
+			 | functions/
+				| <Directory: EPF driver>/
+					| <Directory: EPF device>/

+This document is a guide to use the PCI Endpoint Framework in order to create
+endpoint controller driver, endpoint function driver, and using configfs
+interface to bind the function driver to the controller driver.
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+Linux has a comprehensive PCI subsystem to support PCI controllers that
+operates in Root Complex mode. The subsystem has capability to scan PCI bus,
+assign memory resources and IRQ resources, load PCI driver (based on
+vendor ID, device ID), support other services like hot-plug, power management,
+advanced error reporting and virtual channels.
+
+However the PCI controller IP integrated in some SoCs is capable of operating
+either in Root Complex mode or Endpoint mode. PCI Endpoint Framework will
+add endpoint mode support in Linux. This will help to run Linux in an
+EP system which can have a wide variety of use cases from testing or
+validation, co-processor accelerator, etc.
+
+PCI Endpoint Core
+=================
+
+The PCI Endpoint Core layer comprises 3 components: the Endpoint Controller
+library, the Endpoint Function library, and the configfs layer to bind the
+endpoint function with the endpoint controller.
+
+PCI Endpoint Controller(EPC) Library
+------------------------------------
+
+The EPC library provides APIs to be used by the controller that can operate
+in endpoint mode. It also provides APIs to be used by function driver/library
+in order to implement a particular endpoint function.
+
+APIs for the PCI controller Driver
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This section lists the APIs that the PCI Endpoint core provides to be used
+by the PCI controller driver.
+
+* devm_pci_epc_create()/pci_epc_create()
+
+   The PCI controller driver should implement the following ops:
+
+	 * write_header: ops to populate configuration space header
+	 * set_bar: ops to configure the BAR
+	 * clear_bar: ops to reset the BAR
+	 * alloc_addr_space: ops to allocate in PCI controller address space
+	 * free_addr_space: ops to free the allocated address space
+	 * raise_irq: ops to raise a legacy, MSI or MSI-X interrupt
+	 * start: ops to start the PCI link
+	 * stop: ops to stop the PCI link
+
+   The PCI controller driver can then create a new EPC device by invoking
+   devm_pci_epc_create()/pci_epc_create().
+
+* devm_pci_epc_destroy()/pci_epc_destroy()
+
+   The PCI controller driver can destroy the EPC device created by either
+   devm_pci_epc_create() or pci_epc_create() using devm_pci_epc_destroy() or
+   pci_epc_destroy().
+
+* pci_epc_linkup()
+
+   In order to notify all the function devices that the EPC device to which
+   they are linked has established a link with the host, the PCI controller
+   driver should invoke pci_epc_linkup().
+
+* pci_epc_mem_init()
+
+   Initialize the pci_epc_mem structure used for allocating EPC addr space.
+
+* pci_epc_mem_exit()
+
+   Cleanup the pci_epc_mem structure allocated during pci_epc_mem_init().
+
+
+EPC APIs for the PCI Endpoint Function Driver
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This section lists the APIs that the PCI Endpoint core provides to be used
+by the PCI endpoint function driver.
+
+* pci_epc_write_header()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_write_header() to
+   write the standard configuration header to the endpoint controller.
+
+* pci_epc_set_bar()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_set_bar() to configure
+   the Base Address Register in order for the host to assign PCI addr space.
+   Register space of the function driver is usually configured
+   using this API.
+
+* pci_epc_clear_bar()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_clear_bar() to reset
+   the BAR.
+
+* pci_epc_raise_irq()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_raise_irq() to raise
+   Legacy Interrupt, MSI or MSI-X Interrupt.
+
+* pci_epc_mem_alloc_addr()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_mem_alloc_addr(), to
+   allocate memory address from EPC addr space which is required to access
+   RC's buffer
+
+* pci_epc_mem_free_addr()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should use pci_epc_mem_free_addr() to
+   free the memory space allocated using pci_epc_mem_alloc_addr().
+
+Other EPC APIs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are other APIs provided by the EPC library. These are used for binding
+the EPF device with EPC device. pci-ep-cfs.c can be used as reference for
+using these APIs.
+
+* pci_epc_get()
+
+   Get a reference to the PCI endpoint controller based on the device name of
+   the controller.
+
+* pci_epc_put()
+
+   Release the reference to the PCI endpoint controller obtained using
+   pci_epc_get()
+
+* pci_epc_add_epf()
+
+   Add a PCI endpoint function to a PCI endpoint controller. A PCIe device
+   can have up to 8 functions according to the specification.
+
+* pci_epc_remove_epf()
+
+   Remove the PCI endpoint function from PCI endpoint controller.
+
+* pci_epc_start()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should invoke pci_epc_start() once it
+   has configured the endpoint function and wants to start the PCI link.
+
+* pci_epc_stop()
+
+   The PCI endpoint function driver should invoke pci_epc_stop() to stop
+   the PCI LINK.
+
+
+PCI Endpoint Function(EPF) Library
+----------------------------------
+
+The EPF library provides APIs to be used by the function driver and the EPC
+library to provide endpoint mode functionality.
+
+EPF APIs for the PCI Endpoint Function Driver
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This section lists the APIs that the PCI Endpoint core provides to be used
+by the PCI endpoint function driver.
+
+* pci_epf_register_driver()
+
+   The PCI Endpoint Function driver should implement the following ops:
+	 * bind: ops to perform when a EPC device has been bound to EPF device
+	 * unbind: ops to perform when a binding has been lost between a EPC
+	   device and EPF device
+	 * linkup: ops to perform when the EPC device has established a
+	   connection with a host system
+
+  The PCI Function driver can then register the PCI EPF driver by using
+  pci_epf_register_driver().
+
+* pci_epf_unregister_driver()
+
+  The PCI Function driver can unregister the PCI EPF driver by using
+  pci_epf_unregister_driver().
+
+* pci_epf_alloc_space()
+
+  The PCI Function driver can allocate space for a particular BAR using
+  pci_epf_alloc_space().
+
+* pci_epf_free_space()
+
+  The PCI Function driver can free the allocated space
+  (using pci_epf_alloc_space) by invoking pci_epf_free_space().
+
+APIs for the PCI Endpoint Controller Library
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This section lists the APIs that the PCI Endpoint core provides to be used
+by the PCI endpoint controller library.
+
+* pci_epf_linkup()
+
+   The PCI endpoint controller library invokes pci_epf_linkup() when the
+   EPC device has established the connection to the host.
+
+Other EPF APIs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are other APIs provided by the EPF library. These are used to notify
+the function driver when the EPF device is bound to the EPC device.
+pci-ep-cfs.c can be used as reference for using these APIs.
+
+* pci_epf_create()
+
+   Create a new PCI EPF device by passing the name of the PCI EPF device.
+   This name will be used to bind the EPF device to a EPF driver.
+
+* pci_epf_destroy()
+
+   Destroy the created PCI EPF device.
+
+* pci_epf_bind()
+
+   pci_epf_bind() should be invoked when the EPF device has been bound to
+   a EPC device.
+
+* pci_epf_unbind()
+
+   pci_epf_unbind() should be invoked when the binding between EPC device
+   and EPF device is lost.

+PCI NTB Function
+=================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+PCI Non-Transparent Bridges (NTB) allow two host systems to communicate
+with each other by exposing each host as a device to the other host.
+NTBs typically support the ability to generate interrupts on the remote
+machine, expose memory ranges as BARs, and perform DMA.  They also support
+scratchpads, which are areas of memory within the NTB that are accessible
+from both machines.
+
+PCI NTB Function allows two different systems (or hosts) to communicate
+with each other by configuring the endpoint instances in such a way that
+transactions from one system are routed to the other system.
+
+In the below diagram, PCI NTB function configures the SoC with multiple
+PCI Endpoint (EP) instances in such a way that transactions from one EP
+controller are routed to the other EP controller. Once PCI NTB function
+configures the SoC with multiple EP instances, HOST1 and HOST2 can
+communicate with each other using SoC as a bridge.

+Constructs used for Implementing NTB
+====================================
+
+	1) Config Region
+	2) Self Scratchpad Registers
+	3) Peer Scratchpad Registers
+	4) Doorbell (DB) Registers
+	5) Memory Window (MW)
+
+
+Config Region:
+--------------
+
+Config Region is a construct that is specific to NTB implemented using NTB
+Endpoint Function Driver. The host and endpoint side NTB function driver will
+exchange information with each other using this region. Config Region has
+Control/Status Registers for configuring the Endpoint Controller. Host can
+write into this region for configuring the outbound Address Translation Unit
+(ATU) and to indicate the link status. Endpoint can indicate the status of
+commands issued by host in this region. Endpoint can also indicate the
+scratchpad offset and number of memory windows to the host using this region.
+
+The format of Config Region is given below. All the fields here are 32 bits.

+
+
+  COMMAND:
+
+	NTB function supports three commands:
+
+	  CMD_CONFIGURE_DOORBELL (0x1): Command to configure doorbell. Before
+	invoking this command, the host should allocate and initialize
+	MSI/MSI-X vectors (i.e., initialize the MSI/MSI-X Capability in the
+	Endpoint). The endpoint on receiving this command will configure
+	the outbound ATU such that transactions to Doorbell BAR will be routed
+	to the MSI/MSI-X address programmed by the host. The ARGUMENT
+	register should be populated with number of DBs to configure (in the
+	lower 16 bits) and if MSI or MSI-X should be configured (BIT 16).
+
+	  CMD_CONFIGURE_MW (0x2): Command to configure memory window (MW). The
+	host invokes this command after allocating a buffer that can be
+	accessed by remote host. The allocated address should be programmed
+	in the ADDRESS register (64 bit), the size should be programmed in
+	the SIZE register and the memory window index should be programmed
+	in the ARGUMENT register. The endpoint on receiving this command
+	will configure the outbound ATU such that transactions to MW BAR
+	are routed to the address provided by the host.
+
+	  CMD_LINK_UP (0x3): Command to indicate an NTB application is
+	bound to the EP device on the host side. Once the endpoint
+	receives this command from both the hosts, the endpoint will
+	raise a LINK_UP event to both the hosts to indicate the host
+	NTB applications can start communicating with each other.
+
+  ARGUMENT:
+
+	The value of this register is based on the commands issued in
+	command register. See COMMAND section for more information.
+
+  TOPOLOGY:
+
+	Set to NTB_TOPO_B2B_USD for Primary interface
+	Set to NTB_TOPO_B2B_DSD for Secondary interface
+
+  ADDRESS/SIZE:
+
+	Address and Size to be used while configuring the memory window.
+	See "CMD_CONFIGURE_MW" for more info.
+
+  MEMORY WINDOW1 OFFSET:
+
+	Memory Window 1 and Doorbell registers are packed together in the
+	same BAR. The initial portion of the region will have doorbell
+	registers and the latter portion of the region is for memory window 1.
+	This register will specify the offset of the memory window 1.
+
+  NO OF MEMORY WINDOW:
+
+	Specifies the number of memory windows supported by the NTB device.
+
+  SPAD OFFSET:
+
+	Self scratchpad region and config region are packed together in the
+	same BAR. The initial portion of the region will have config region
+	and the latter portion of the region is for self scratchpad. This
+	register will specify the offset of the self scratchpad registers.
+
+  SPAD COUNT:
+
+	Specifies the number of scratchpad registers supported by the NTB
+	device.
+
+  DB ENTRY SIZE:
+
+	Used to determine the offset within the DB BAR that should be written
+	in order to raise doorbell. EPF NTB can use either MSI or MSI-X to
+	ring doorbell (MSI-X support will be added later). MSI uses same
+	address for all the interrupts and MSI-X can provide different
+	addresses for different interrupts. The MSI/MSI-X address is provided
+	by the host and the address it gives is based on the MSI/MSI-X
+	implementation supported by the host. For instance, ARM platform
+	using GIC ITS will have the same MSI-X address for all the interrupts.
+	In order to support all the combinations and use the same mechanism
+	for both MSI and MSI-X, EPF NTB allocates a separate region in the
+	Outbound Address Space for each of the interrupts. This region will
+	be mapped to the MSI/MSI-X address provided by the host. If a host
+	provides the same address for all the interrupts, all the regions
+	will be translated to the same address. If a host provides different
+	addresses, the regions will be translated to different addresses. This
+	will ensure there is no difference while raising the doorbell.
+
+  DB DATA:
+
+	EPF NTB supports 32 interrupts, so there are 32 DB DATA registers.
+	This holds the MSI/MSI-X data that has to be written to MSI address
+	for raising doorbell interrupt. This will be populated by EPF NTB
+	while invoking CMD_CONFIGURE_DOORBELL.
+
+Scratchpad Registers:
+---------------------
+
+  Each host has its own register space allocated in the memory of NTB endpoint
+  controller. They are both readable and writable from both sides of the bridge.
+  They are used by applications built over NTB and can be used to pass control
+  and status information between both sides of a device.
+
+  Scratchpad registers has 2 parts
+	1) Self Scratchpad: Host's own register space
+	2) Peer Scratchpad: Remote host's register space.
+
+Doorbell Registers:
+-------------------
+
+  Doorbell Registers are used by the hosts to interrupt each other.
+
+Memory Window:
+--------------
+
+  Actual transfer of data between the two hosts will happen using the
+  memory window.
+
+Modeling Constructs:
+====================
+
+There are 5 or more distinct regions (config, self scratchpad, peer
+scratchpad, doorbell, one or more memory windows) to be modeled to achieve
+NTB functionality. At least one memory window is required while more than
+one is permitted. All these regions should be mapped to BARs for hosts to
+access these regions.
+
+If one 32-bit BAR is allocated for each of these regions, the scheme would
+look like this:
+
+======  ===============
+BAR NO  CONSTRUCTS USED
+======  ===============
+BAR0    Config Region
+BAR1    Self Scratchpad
+BAR2    Peer Scratchpad
+BAR3    Doorbell
+BAR4    Memory Window 1
+BAR5    Memory Window 2
+======  ===============
+
+However if we allocate a separate BAR for each of the regions, there would not
+be enough BARs for all the regions in a platform that supports only 64-bit
+BARs.
+
+In order to be supported by most of the platforms, the regions should be
+packed and mapped to BARs in a way that provides NTB functionality and
+also makes sure the host doesn't access any region that it is not supposed
+to.
+
+The following scheme is used in EPF NTB Function:
+
+======  ===============================
+BAR NO  CONSTRUCTS USED
+======  ===============================
+BAR0    Config Region + Self Scratchpad
+BAR1    Peer Scratchpad
+BAR2    Doorbell + Memory Window 1
+BAR3    Memory Window 2
+BAR4    Memory Window 3
+BAR5    Memory Window 4
+======  ===============================
+
+With this scheme, for the basic NTB functionality 3 BARs should be sufficient.

+PCI Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) Endpoint Function (EPF) User Guide
+===================================================================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-ntb function driver
+and ntb_hw_epf host driver for NTB functionality. The list of steps to
+be followed in the host side and EP side is given below. For the hardware
+configuration and internals of NTB using configurable endpoints see
+Documentation/PCI/endpoint/pci-ntb-function.rst
+
+Endpoint Device
+===============
+
+Endpoint Controller Devices
+---------------------------
+
+For implementing NTB functionality at least two endpoint controller devices
+are required.
+
+To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::
+
+	# ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
+	2900000.pcie-ep  2910000.pcie-ep
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
+	2900000.pcie-ep  2910000.pcie-ep
+
+
+Endpoint Function Drivers
+-------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint function drivers in the system::
+
+	# ls /sys/bus/pci-epf/drivers
+	pci_epf_ntb   pci_epf_ntb
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions
+	pci_epf_ntb   pci_epf_ntb
+
+
+Creating pci-epf-ntb Device
+----------------------------
+
+PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create
+pci-epf-ntb device, the following commands can be used::
+
+	# mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
+	# cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
+	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
+
+The "mkdir func1" above creates the pci-epf-ntb function device that will
+be probed by pci_epf_ntb driver.
+
+The PCI endpoint framework populates the directory with the following
+configurable fields::
+
+	# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
+	baseclass_code    deviceid          msi_interrupts    pci-epf-ntb.0
+	progif_code       secondary         subsys_id         vendorid
+	cache_line_size   interrupt_pin     msix_interrupts   primary
+	revid             subclass_code     subsys_vendor_id
+
+The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
+when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-ntb driver populates
+vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::
+
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
+	0xffff
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/interrupt_pin
+	0x0001
+
+
+Configuring pci-epf-ntb Device
+-------------------------------
+
+The user can configure the pci-epf-ntb device using its configfs entry. In order
+to change the vendorid and the deviceid, the following
+commands can be used::
+
+	# echo 0x104c > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
+	# echo 0xb00d > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/deviceid
+
+In order to configure NTB specific attributes, a new sub-directory to func1
+should be created::
+
+	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/
+
+The NTB function driver will populate this directory with various attributes
+that can be configured by the user::
+
+	# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/
+	db_count    mw1         mw2         mw3         mw4         num_mws
+	spad_count
+
+A sample configuration for NTB function is given below::
+
+	# echo 4 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/db_count
+	# echo 128 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/spad_count
+	# echo 2 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/num_mws
+	# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw1
+	# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw2
+
+Binding pci-epf-ntb Device to EP Controller
+--------------------------------------------
+
+NTB function device should be attached to two PCI endpoint controllers
+connected to the two hosts. Use the 'primary' and 'secondary' entries
+inside NTB function device to attach one PCI endpoint controller to
+primary interface and the other PCI endpoint controller to the secondary
+interface::
+
+	# ln -s controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/primary
+	# ln -s controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/secondary
+
+Once the above step is completed, both the PCI endpoint controllers are ready to
+establish a link with the host.
+
+
+Start the Link
+--------------
+
+In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
+field should be populated with '1'. For NTB, both the PCI endpoint controllers
+should establish link with the host::
+
+	# echo 1 > controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/start
+	# echo 1 > controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/start
+
+
+RootComplex Device
+==================
+
+lspci Output
+------------
+
+Note that the devices listed here correspond to the values populated in
+"Creating pci-epf-ntb Device" section above::
+
+	# lspci
+	0000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments Device b00d
+	0000:01:00.0 RAM memory: Texas Instruments Device b00d
+
+
+Using ntb_hw_epf Device
+-----------------------
+
+The host side software follows the standard NTB software architecture in Linux.
+All the existing client side NTB utilities like NTB Transport Client and NTB
+Netdev, NTB Ping Pong Test Client and NTB Tool Test Client can be used with NTB
+function device.
+
+For more information on NTB see

+PCI Test Function
+=================
+
+:Author: Kishon Vijay Abraham I <kishon@ti.com>
+
+Traditionally PCI RC has always been validated by using standard
+PCI cards like ethernet PCI cards or USB PCI cards or SATA PCI cards.
+However with the addition of EP-core in linux kernel, it is possible
+to configure a PCI controller that can operate in EP mode to work as
+a test device.
+
+The PCI endpoint test device is a virtual device (defined in software)
+used to test the endpoint functionality and serve as a sample driver
+for other PCI endpoint devices (to use the EP framework).
+
+The PCI endpoint test device has the following registers:
+
+	1) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+	2) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND

+	8) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_TYPE
+	9) PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_IRQ_NUMBER
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_MAGIC
+
+This register will be used to test BAR0. A known pattern will be written
+and read back from MAGIC register to verify BAR0.
+
+* PCI_ENDPOINT_TEST_COMMAND
+
+This register will be used by the host driver to indicate the function
+that the endpoint device must perform.

+
+This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-test function driver
+and pci_endpoint_test host driver for testing PCI. The list of steps to

+
+Endpoint Device
+===============
+
+Endpoint Controller Devices
+---------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::
+
+	# ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
+	  51000000.pcie_ep
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
+	  51000000.pcie_ep
+
+
+Endpoint Function Drivers

+
+
+Creating pci-epf-test Device
+----------------------------
+
+PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create

+	  cache_line_size	msi_interrupts	revid		subsys_vendorid
+	  deviceid          	msix_interrupts	subclass_code	vendorid
+
+The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
+when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-test driver populates
+vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::
+
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_test/func1/vendorid
+	  0xffff
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_test/func1/interrupt_pin
+	  0x0001
+
+
+Configuring pci-epf-test Device
+-------------------------------
+
+The user can configure the pci-epf-test device using configfs entry. In order
+to change the vendorid and the number of MSI interrupts used by the function
+device, the following commands can be used::
+
+	# echo 0x104c > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/vendorid
+	# echo 0xb500 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/deviceid
+	# echo 16 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/msi_interrupts
+	# echo 8 > functions/pci_epf_test/func1/msix_interrupts
+
+
+Binding pci-epf-test Device to EP Controller
+--------------------------------------------
+
+In order for the endpoint function device to be useful, it has to be bound to
+a PCI endpoint controller driver. Use the configfs to bind the function
+device to one of the controller driver present in the system::
+
+	# ln -s functions/pci_epf_test/func1 controllers/51000000.pcie_ep/
+
+Once the above step is completed, the PCI endpoint is ready to establish a link
+with the host.
+
+
+Start the Link
+--------------
+
+In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
+field should be populated with '1'::
+
+	# echo 1 > controllers/51000000.pcie_ep/start

+PCI Non-Transparent Bridge (NTB) Endpoint Function (EPF) User Guide
+===================================================================
+
+:Author: Frank Li <Frank.Li@nxp.com>
+
+This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-vntb function driver
+and ntb_hw_epf host driver for NTB functionality. The list of steps to
+be followed in the host side and EP side is given below. For the hardware
+configuration and internals of NTB using configurable endpoints see
+Documentation/PCI/endpoint/pci-vntb-function.rst
+
+Endpoint Device
+===============
+
+Endpoint Controller Devices
+---------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::
+
+        # ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
+          5f010000.pcie_ep
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+        # ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
+          5f010000.pcie_ep
+
+Endpoint Function Drivers
+-------------------------
+
+To find the list of endpoint function drivers in the system::
+
+	# ls /sys/bus/pci-epf/drivers
+	pci_epf_ntb  pci_epf_test  pci_epf_vntb
+
+If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
+
+	# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions
+	pci_epf_ntb  pci_epf_test  pci_epf_vntb
+
+
+Creating pci-epf-vntb Device
+----------------------------
+
+PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create
+pci-epf-vntb device, the following commands can be used::
+
+	# mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
+	# cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
+	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1
+
+The "mkdir func1" above creates the pci-epf-ntb function device that will
+be probed by pci_epf_vntb driver.
+
+The PCI endpoint framework populates the directory with the following
+configurable fields::
+
+	# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
+	baseclass_code    deviceid          msi_interrupts    pci-epf-ntb.0
+	progif_code       secondary         subsys_id         vendorid
+	cache_line_size   interrupt_pin     msix_interrupts   primary
+	revid             subclass_code     subsys_vendor_id
+
+The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
+when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-vntb driver populates
+vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::
+
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/vendorid
+	0xffff
+	# cat functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/interrupt_pin
+	0x0001
+
+
+Configuring pci-epf-vntb Device
+-------------------------------
+
+The user can configure the pci-epf-vntb device using its configfs entry. In order
+to change the vendorid and the deviceid, the following
+commands can be used::
+
+	# echo 0x1957 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/vendorid
+	# echo 0x0809 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/deviceid
+
+In order to configure NTB specific attributes, a new sub-directory to func1
+should be created::
+
+	# mkdir functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/
+
+The NTB function driver will populate this directory with various attributes
+that can be configured by the user::
+
+	# ls functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/
+	db_count    mw1         mw2         mw3         mw4         num_mws
+	spad_count
+
+A sample configuration for NTB function is given below::
+
+	# echo 4 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/db_count
+	# echo 128 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/spad_count
+	# echo 1 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/num_mws
+	# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/mw1
+
+A sample configuration for virtual NTB driver for virutal PCI bus::
+
+	# echo 0x1957 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/vntb_vid
+	# echo 0x080A > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/vntb_pid
+	# echo 0x10 > functions/pci_epf_vntb/func1/pci_epf_vntb.0/vbus_number
+
+Binding pci-epf-ntb Device to EP Controller
+--------------------------------------------
+
+NTB function device should be attached to PCI endpoint controllers
+connected to the host.
+
+	# ln -s controllers/5f010000.pcie_ep functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/primary
+
+Once the above step is completed, the PCI endpoint controllers are ready to
+establish a link with the host.
+
+
+Start the Link
+--------------
+
+In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
+field should be populated with '1'. For NTB, both the PCI endpoint controllers
+should establish link with the host (imx8 don't need this steps)::
+
+	# echo 1 > controllers/5f010000.pcie_ep/start
