| Description: | |
| The CEC Framework allows for CEC error injection commands through | |
| debugfs. Drivers that support this will create an error-inj file | |
| through which the error injection commands can be given. | |
| The basic syntax is as follows: | |
| Leading spaces/tabs are ignored. If the next character is a '#' or the | |
| end of the line was reached, then the whole line is ignored. Otherwise | |
| a command is expected. | |
| It is up to the driver to decide what commands to implement. The only | |
| exception is that the command 'clear' without any arguments must be | |
| implemented and that it will remove all current error injection | |
| commands. | |
| This ensures that you can always do 'echo clear >error-inj' to clear any | |
| error injections without having to know the details of the driver-specific | |
| commands. | |
| Note that the output of 'error-inj' shall be valid as input to 'error-inj'. | |
| So this must work: | |
| $ cat error-inj >einj.txt | |
| $ cat einj.txt >error-inj | |
| Other than these basic rules described above this ABI is not considered | |
| stable and may change in the future. | |
| Drivers that implement this functionality must document the commands as | |
| part of the CEC documentation and must keep that documentation up to date | |
| when changes are made. | |
| The following CEC error injection implementations exist: | |
