PMF TA (Trusted Application) loads via the TEE environment into the AMD ASP. PMF-TA supports two commands: 1) Init: Initialize the TA with the PMF Smart PC policy binary and start the policy engine. A policy is a combination of inputs and outputs, where; - the inputs are the changing dynamics of the system like the user behaviour, system heuristics etc. - the outputs, which are the actions to be set on the system which lead to better power management and enhanced user experience. PMF driver acts as a central manager in this case to supply the inputs required to the TA (either by getting the information from the other kernel subsystems or from userland) 2) Enact: Enact the output actions from the TA. The action could be applying a new thermal limit to boost/throttle the power limits or change system behavior.

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.
