ACR is responsible for managing the firmware for LS (Low Secure) falcons, this was previously handled in the driver by SECBOOT. This rewrite started from some test code that attempted to replicate the procedure RM uses in order to debug early Turing ACR firmwares that were provided by NVIDIA for development. Compared with SECBOOT, the code is structured into more individual steps, with the aim of making the process easier to follow/debug, whilst making it possible to support newer firmware versions that may have a different binary format or API interface. The HS (High Secure) binary(s) are now booted earlier in device init, to match the behaviour of RM, whereas SECBOOT would delay this until we try to boot the first LS falcon. There's also additional debugging features available, with the intention of making it easier to solve issues during FW/HW bring-up in the future. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com>

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.
