+UltraSoc - HW Assisted Tracing on SoC
+======================================

+Introduction
+------------
+
+UltraSoc SMB is a per SCCL(Super CPU Cluster) hardware, and it provides a
+way to buffer and store CPU trace messages in a region of shared system
+memory. SMB is plugged as a coresight sink device and the corresponding
+trace generators (ETM) are plugged in as source devices.
+
+Sysfs files and directories
+---------------------------
+
+The SMB devices appear on the existing coresight bus alongside the other
+coresight devices::
+
+	$# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/
+	ultra_smb0   ultra_smb1   ultra_smb2   ultra_smb3
+
+The ``ultra_smb<N>`` named SMB associated with SCCL.::
+
+	$# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ultra_smb0
+	enable_sink   mgmt
+	$# ls /sys/bus/coresight/devices/ultra_smb0/mgmt
+	buf_size  buf_status  read_pos  write_pos
+
+*Key file items are:-*
+   * ``read_pos``: Shows the value held by UltraSoc SMB Read Pointer register.
+   * ``write_pos``: Shows the value held by UltraSoc SMB Write Pointer register.
+   * ``buf_status``: Shows the value held by UltraSoc SMB status register.
+		     BIT(0) is zero means buffer is empty.
+   * ``buf_size``: Shows the buffer size of each UltraSoc SMB device.
+
+Firmware Bindings
+---------------------------
+
+SMB device is only supported with ACPI, and ACPI binding of SMB device
+describes SMB device indentifier, resource information and graph structure.
+
+SMB is identified by ACPI HID "HISI03A1", resource of device is declared using
+the _CRS method. Each SMB must present two base address, the first one is the
+configuration base address of SMB device, the second one is the base address of
+shared system memory.
+
+examples::
+
+    Device(USMB) {                                               \
+      Name(_HID, "HISI03A1")                                     \
+      Name(_CRS, ResourceTemplate() {                            \
