On driver load: - Initialize resource dump data structure and memory access tools (mkey & pd). - Read the resource dump's menu which contains the FW segment identifier. Each record is identified by the segment name (ASCII). During the driver's course of life, users (like reporters) may request dumps per segment. The user should create a command providing the segment identifier (SW enumeration) and command keys. In return, the user receives a command context. In order to receive the dump, the user should supply the command context and a memory (aligned to a PAGE) on which the dump content will be written. Since the dump may be larger than the given memory, the user may resubmit the command until received an indication of end-of-dump. It is the user's responsibility to destroy the command.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
