Each MEI message has mei_msg_hdr followed by a payload.
Driver is oblivious the payload.
ME Address/ID - This is the logical address of the ME
feature/client of that message.
Host Address/ID - This is the logical address of the Host
client of that message
Length - This is the Length of message payload in bytes
Reserved - reserved for future use.
Message Complete - This bit is used to indicative that
this is the last message of multi message
MEI transfer of a client message that is larger
then the MEI circular buffer.
Payload - Message payload (data) up to 512bytes
The HW data registers are consist two circular buffers,
one for data from ME and other data from Host application.
Each buffer has two pointers, read_ptr (H_CBRP)
and write_ptr (H_CBWP).
The buffers size is defined by depth value that exists
in the status registers (H_CBD and ME_CBD_HRA).
Every read from ME circular buffer cause read_ptr++
Every write to the Host circular buffer write_ptr++
Flow control MEI message that ME and MEI Driver use to notify
each other that a ME feature/client or Host client buffer is ready
to receive data.

staging/mei: PCI device and char driver support.
contains module entries and PCI driver and char device
definitions (using file_operations, pci_driver struts).
The HW interface is exposed on PCI interface.
PCI:
The MEI HW resources are memory map 32 bit registers
(Host and ME Status Registers and Data Registers)
and interrupt (shared, with Intel GFX on some chipsets
and USB2 controller on others).
The device is part of the chipsets and cannot be hotplugged.
The MEI device present is determined by BIOS configuration.
Probe:
The driver starts the init MEI flow, that is explained
in the patch "MEI driver init flow" [06/10],
then schedules a timer that handles
timeouts and watchdog heartbeats.
Remove:
The driver closes all connections and stops the watchdog.
The driver expose char device that supports:
open, release, write, read, ioctl, poll.
Open:
Upon open the driver allocates HOST data structure
on behalf of application which will resides in the file's
private data and assign a host ID number which
will identify messages between driver client instance
and MEI client.
The driver also checks readiness of the device. The number
of simultaneously opened instances is limited to 253.
(255 - (amthi + watchdog))
Release:
In release the driver sends a Disconnect Command to
ME feature and clean all the data structs.
IOCTL:
MEI adds new IOCTL: (IOCTL_MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT)
The IOCTL links the current file descriptor to ME feature.
This is done by sending MEI Bus command: 'hbm_client_connect_request'
to the ME and waiting for an answer :'hbm_client_connect_response'.
Upon answer reception the driver updates its and HOST data
structures in file structure to indicate that the file
descriptor is associated to ME feature.
Each ME feature is represented by UUID which is given as
an input parameter to the IOCTL, upon success connect command the
IOCTL will return the ME feature properties.
ME can reject CONNECT commands due to several reasons,
most common are:
Invalid UUID ME or feature does not exists in ME.
No More Connection allowed to this is feature,
usually only one connection is allowed.
Write:
Upon write, the driver splits the user data into several MEI
messages up to 512 bytes each and sends it to the HW.
If the user wants to write data to AMTHI ME feature then the
drivers routes the messages through AMTHI queues.
Read:
In read the driver checks is a connection exists to
current file descriptor and then wait until a data is available.
Message might be received (by interrupt from ME) in multiple chunks.
Only complete message is released to the application.
Poll:
Nothing special here. Waiting for see if we have
data available for reading.

The util module expects that the util channels are fully initialized
when the module loads. To deal with the race condition which can result
in a NULL pointer dereferencing if the util module were to load before
all the util channels are fully initialized, in commit:
code was introduced in the vmbus driver to ensure that all the
util channels were fully initialized before returning from the load
of the vmbus driver. This solution has several problems: if for whatever
reason, any util channel were to fail to initialize, vmbus driver would
wait indefinitely. We deal with this synchronization issue very differently

The drivers for ADDI-DATA cards can override some static parameters for
the board type using information read from EEPROM. Unfortunately, they
currently write the parameters from the EEPROM back to the shared,

type-casting away the const-ness of the data.
This patch changes the code to use an area in the private data for the
board instance to hold the parameters read from EEPROM (after
initializing the parameters from the static board data). It also
changes the type-casts to the read-only data to preserve the const
