What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/
Date: April 2005
KernelVersion: 2.6.12
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The device/ directory under a specific TPM instance exposes
the properties of that TPM chip
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/active
Date: April 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.17
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "active" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is accepting
commands. An inactive TPM chip still contains all the state of
an active chip (Storage Root Key, NVRAM, etc), and can be
visible to the OS, but will only accept a restricted set of
commands. See the TPM Main Specification part 2, Structures,
section 17 for more information on which commands are
available.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/cancel
Date: June 2005
KernelVersion: 2.6.13
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "cancel" property allows you to cancel the currently
pending TPM command. Writing any value to cancel will call the
TPM vendor specific cancel operation.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/caps
Date: April 2005
KernelVersion: 2.6.12
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "caps" property contains TPM manufacturer and version info.
Example output:
Manufacturer: 0x53544d20
TCG version: 1.2
Firmware version: 8.16
Manufacturer is a hex dump of the 4 byte manufacturer info
space in a TPM. TCG version shows the TCG TPM spec level that
the chip supports. Firmware version is that of the chip and
is manufacturer specific.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/durations
Date: March 2011
KernelVersion: 3.1
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "durations" property shows the 3 vendor-specific values
used to wait for a short, medium and long TPM command. All
TPM commands are categorized as short, medium or long in
execution time, so that the driver doesn't have to wait
any longer than necessary before starting to poll for a
result.
Example output:
3015000 4508000 180995000 [original]
Here the short, medium and long durations are displayed in
usecs. "[original]" indicates that the values are displayed
unmodified from when they were queried from the chip.
Durations can be modified in the case where a buggy chip
reports them in msec instead of usec and they need to be
scaled to be displayed in usecs. In this case "[adjusted]"
will be displayed in place of "[original]".
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/enabled
Date: April 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.17
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "enabled" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is enabled,
meaning that it should be visible to the OS. This property
may be visible but produce a '0' after some operation that
disables the TPM.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/owned
Date: April 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.17
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "owned" property produces a '1' if the TPM_TakeOwnership
ordinal has been executed successfully in the chip. A '0'
indicates that ownership hasn't been taken.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/pcrs
Date: April 2005
KernelVersion: 2.6.12
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "pcrs" property will dump the current value of all Platform
Configuration Registers in the TPM. Note that since these
values may be constantly changing, the output is only valid
for a snapshot in time.
Example output:
PCR-00: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75
PCR-01: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75
PCR-02: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75
PCR-03: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75
PCR-04: 3A 3F 78 0F 11 A4 B4 99 69 FC AA 80 CD 6E 39 57 C3 3B 22 75
...
The number of PCRs and hex bytes needed to represent a PCR
value will vary depending on TPM chip version. For TPM 1.1 and
1.2 chips, PCRs represent SHA-1 hashes, which are 20 bytes
long. Use the "caps" property to determine TPM version.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/pubek
Date: April 2005
KernelVersion: 2.6.12
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "pubek" property will return the TPM's public endorsement
key if possible. If the TPM has had ownership established and
is version 1.2, the pubek will not be available without the
owner's authorization. Since the TPM driver doesn't store any
secrets, it can't authorize its own request for the pubek,
making it unaccessible. The public endorsement key is gener-
ated at TPM menufacture time and exists for the life of the
chip.

What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/temp_deactivated
Date: April 2006
KernelVersion: 2.6.17
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "temp_deactivated" property returns a '1' if the chip has
been temporarily dectivated, usually until the next power
cycle. Whether a warm boot (reboot) will clear a TPM chip
from a temp_deactivated state is platform specific.
What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/timeouts
Date: March 2011
KernelVersion: 3.1
Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
Description: The "timeouts" property shows the 4 vendor-specific values
for the TPM's interface spec timeouts. The use of these
timeouts is defined by the TPM interface spec that the chip
conforms to.
Example output:
750000 750000 750000 750000 [original]
The four timeout values are shown in usecs, with a trailing
"[original]" or "[adjusted]" depending on whether the values
were scaled by the driver to be reported in usec from msecs.

Description: Generic performance monitoring events
A collection of performance monitoring events that may be
supported by many/most CPUs. These events can be monitored
using the 'perf(1)' tool.
The contents of each file would look like:
event=0xNNNN
where 'N' is a hex digit and the number '0xNNNN' shows the
"raw code" for the perf event identified by the file's
"basename".

Description: POWER-systems specific performance monitoring events
A collection of performance monitoring events that may be
supported by the POWER CPU. These events can be monitored
using the 'perf(1)' tool.
These events may not be supported by other CPUs.
The contents of each file would look like:
event=0xNNNN
where 'N' is a hex digit and the number '0xNNNN' shows the
"raw code" for the perf event identified by the file's
"basename".
Further, multiple terms like 'event=0xNNNN' can be specified
and separated with comma. All available terms are defined in
the /sys/bus/event_source/devices/<dev>/format file.

Contact: Robert Love <robert.w.love@intel.com>, devel@open-fcoe.org
Description: The FCoE bus. Attributes in this directory are control interfaces.
Attributes:
ctlr_create: 'FCoE Controller' instance creation interface. Writing an
<ifname> to this file will allocate and populate sysfs with a
fcoe_ctlr_device (ctlr_X). The user can then configure any
per-port settings and finally write to the fcoe_ctlr_device's
'start' attribute to begin the kernel's discovery and login
process.
ctlr_destroy: 'FCoE Controller' instance removal interface. Writing a
fcoe_ctlr_device's sysfs name to this file will log the
fcoe_ctlr_device out of the fabric or otherwise connected
FCoE devices. It will also free all kernel memory allocated
for this fcoe_ctlr_device and any structures associated
with it, this includes the scsi_host.

Description: 'FCoE Controller' instances on the fcoe bus
Description: 'FCoE Controller' instances on the fcoe bus.
The FCoE Controller now has a three stage creation process.
1) Write interface name to ctlr_create 2) Configure the FCoE
Controller (ctlr_X) 3) Enable the FCoE Controller to begin
discovery and login. The FCoE Controller is destroyed by
writing it's name, i.e. ctlr_X to the ctlr_delete file.
Attributes:
fcf_dev_loss_tmo: Device loss timeout peroid (see below). Changing
this value will change the dev_loss_tmo for all
FCFs discovered by this controller.
mode: Display or change the FCoE Controller's mode. Possible
modes are 'Fabric' and 'VN2VN'. If a FCoE Controller
is started in 'Fabric' mode then FIP FCF discovery is
initiated and ultimately a fabric login is attempted.
If a FCoE Controller is started in 'VN2VN' mode then
FIP VN2VN discovery and login is performed. A FCoE
Controller only supports one mode at a time.
enabled: Whether an FCoE controller is enabled or disabled.
0 if disabled, 1 if enabled. Writing either 0 or 1
to this file will enable or disable the FCoE controller.
lesb/link_fail: Link Error Status Block (LESB) link failure count.
lesb/vlink_fail: Link Error Status Block (LESB) virtual link

easy to tell the relative positions among sensors as well as their
positions relative to the board that holds these sensors. Identity matrix
[1, 0, 0; 0, 1, 0; 0, 0, 1] means sensor chip and device are perfectly
aligned with each other. All axes are exactly the same.

What: /sys/devices/.../power_state
Date: January 2013
Contact: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Description:
The /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute is only present for
device objects representing ACPI device nodes that provide power
management methods.
If present, it contains a string representing the current ACPI
power state of the given device node. Its possible values,
"D0", "D1", "D2", "D3hot", and "D3cold", reflect the power state
names defined by the ACPI specification (ACPI 4 and above).
If the device node uses shared ACPI power resources, this state
determines a list of power resources required not to be turned
off. However, some power resources needed by the device node in
higher-power (lower-number) states may also be ON because of
some other devices using them at the moment.
This attribute is read-only.

power state of the given device node as returned by the _PSC
control method or inferred from the configuration of power
resources. Its possible values, "D0", "D1", "D2", "D3hot", and
"D3cold", reflect the power state names defined by the ACPI
specification (ACPI 4 and above).
In some situations the value of this attribute may be different
from the value of the /sys/devices/.../power_state attribute for
the same device object. If that happens, some shared power
resources used by the device node are only ON because of some
other devices using them at the moment.
