+Debugfs exists as a simple way for kernel developers to make information
+available to user space.  Unlike /proc, which is only meant for information
+about a process, or sysfs, which has strict one-value-per-file rules,
+debugfs has no rules at all.  Developers can put any information they want
+there.  The debugfs filesystem is also intended to not serve as a stable
+ABI to user space; in theory, there are no stability constraints placed on
+files exported there.  The real world is not always so simple, though [1];
+even debugfs interfaces are best designed with the idea that they will need
+to be maintained forever.
+
+Debugfs is typically mounted with a command like:
+
+    mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
+
+(Or an equivalent /etc/fstab line). 
+
+Note that the debugfs API is exported GPL-only to modules.
+
+Code using debugfs should include <linux/debugfs.h>.  Then, the first order
+of business will be to create at least one directory to hold a set of
+debugfs files:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent);
+
+This call, if successful, will make a directory called name underneath the
+indicated parent directory.  If parent is NULL, the directory will be
+created in the debugfs root.  On success, the return value is a struct
+dentry pointer which can be used to create files in the directory (and to
+clean it up at the end).  A NULL return value indicates that something went
+wrong.  If ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) is returned, that is an indication that the
+kernel has been built without debugfs support and none of the functions
+described below will work.
+
+The most general way to create a file within a debugfs directory is with:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_file(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				       struct dentry *parent, void *data,
+				       const struct file_operations *fops);
+
+Here, name is the name of the file to create, mode describes the access
+permissions the file should have, parent indicates the directory which
+should hold the file, data will be stored in the i_private field of the
+resulting inode structure, and fops is a set of file operations which
+implement the file's behavior.  At a minimum, the read() and/or write()
+operations should be provided; others can be included as needed.  Again,
+the return value will be a dentry pointer to the created file, NULL for
+error, or ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) if debugfs support is missing.
+
+In a number of cases, the creation of a set of file operations is not
+actually necessary; the debugfs code provides a number of helper functions
+for simple situations.  Files containing a single integer value can be
+created with any of:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_u8(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				     struct dentry *parent, u8 *value);
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_u16(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				      struct dentry *parent, u16 *value);
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_u32(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				      struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_u64(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				      struct dentry *parent, u64 *value);
+
+These files support both reading and writing the given value; if a specific
+file should not be written to, simply set the mode bits accordingly.  The
+values in these files are in decimal; if hexadecimal is more appropriate,
+the following functions can be used instead:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_x8(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				     struct dentry *parent, u8 *value);
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_x16(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				      struct dentry *parent, u16 *value);
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_x32(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				      struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
+
+Note that there is no debugfs_create_x64().
+
+These functions are useful as long as the developer knows the size of the
+value to be exported.  Some types can have different widths on different
+architectures, though, complicating the situation somewhat.  There is a
+function meant to help out in one special case:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_size_t(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				         struct dentry *parent, 
+					 size_t *value);
+
+As might be expected, this function will create a debugfs file to represent
+a variable of type size_t.
+
+Boolean values can be placed in debugfs with:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_bool(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				       struct dentry *parent, u32 *value);
+
+A read on the resulting file will yield either Y (for non-zero values) or
+N, followed by a newline.  If written to, it will accept either upper- or
+lower-case values, or 1 or 0.  Any other input will be silently ignored.
+
+Finally, a block of arbitrary binary data can be exported with:
+
+    struct debugfs_blob_wrapper {
+	void *data;
+	unsigned long size;
+    };
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_blob(const char *name, mode_t mode,
+				       struct dentry *parent,
+				       struct debugfs_blob_wrapper *blob);
+
+A read of this file will return the data pointed to by the
+debugfs_blob_wrapper structure.  Some drivers use "blobs" as a simple way
+to return several lines of (static) formatted text output.  This function
+can be used to export binary information, but there does not appear to be
+any code which does so in the mainline.  Note that all files created with
+debugfs_create_blob() are read-only.
+
+There are a couple of other directory-oriented helper functions:
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_rename(struct dentry *old_dir, 
+    				  struct dentry *old_dentry,
+		                  struct dentry *new_dir, 
+				  const char *new_name);
+
+    struct dentry *debugfs_create_symlink(const char *name, 
+                                          struct dentry *parent,
+				      	  const char *target);
+
+A call to debugfs_rename() will give a new name to an existing debugfs
+file, possibly in a different directory.  The new_name must not exist prior
+to the call; the return value is old_dentry with updated information.
+Symbolic links can be created with debugfs_create_symlink().
+
+There is one important thing that all debugfs users must take into account:
+there is no automatic cleanup of any directories created in debugfs.  If a
+module is unloaded without explicitly removing debugfs entries, the result
+will be a lot of stale pointers and no end of highly antisocial behavior.
+So all debugfs users - at least those which can be built as modules - must
+be prepared to remove all files and directories they create there.  A file
+can be removed with:
+
+    void debugfs_remove(struct dentry *dentry);
+
+The dentry value can be NULL, in which case nothing will be removed.
+
+Once upon a time, debugfs users were required to remember the dentry
+pointer for every debugfs file they created so that all files could be
+cleaned up.  We live in more civilized times now, though, and debugfs users
+can call:
+
+    void debugfs_remove_recursive(struct dentry *dentry);
+
+If this function is passed a pointer for the dentry corresponding to the
+top-level directory, the entire hierarchy below that directory will be
+removed.

+
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+ 
+STATE OF DEVELOPMENT:
+
+This driver is being developed on the initiative of Piotr Makowski (oponek@gmail.com) and financed by Lars Bergmann.
+Development is carried out by Rainer Zimmermann (mail@lightshed.de).
+
+ESI provided a sample Maya44 card for the development work.
+
+However, unfortunately it has turned out difficult to get detailed programming information, so I (Rainer Zimmermann) had to find out some card-specific information by experiment and conjecture. Some information (in particular, several GPIO bits) is still missing.
+
+This is the first testing version of the Maya44 driver released to the alsa-devel mailing list (Feb 5, 2008).
+
+
+The following functions work, as tested by Rainer Zimmermann and Piotr Makowski:
+
+- playback and capture at all sampling rates
+- input/output level
+- crossmixing
+- line/mic switch
+- phantom power switch
+- analogue monitor a.k.a bypass
+
+
+The following functions *should* work, but are not fully tested:
+
+- Channel 3+4 analogue - S/PDIF input switching
+- S/PDIF output
+- all inputs/outputs on the M/IO/DIO extension card
+- internal/external clock selection
+
+
+*In particular, we would appreciate testing of these functions by anyone who has access to an M/IO/DIO extension card.*
+
+
+Things that do not seem to work:
+
+- The level meters ("multi track") in 'alsamixer' do not seem to react to signals in (if this is a bug, it would probably be in the existing ICE1724 code).
+
+- Ardour 2.1 seems to work only via JACK, not using ALSA directly or via OSS. This still needs to be tracked down.
+
+
+DRIVER DETAILS:
+
+the following files were added:
+
+pci/ice1724/maya44.c        - Maya44 specific code
+pci/ice1724/maya44.h
+pci/ice1724/ice1724.patch
+pci/ice1724/ice1724.h.patch - PROPOSED patch to ice1724.h (see SAMPLING RATES)
+i2c/other/wm8776.c  - low-level access routines for Wolfson WM8776 codecs 
+include/wm8776.h
+
+
+Note that the wm8776.c code is meant to be card-independent and does not actually register the codec with the ALSA infrastructure.
+This is done in maya44.c, mainly because some of the WM8776 controls are used in Maya44-specific ways, and should be named appropriately.
+
+
+the following files were created in pci/ice1724, simply #including the corresponding file from the alsa-kernel tree:
+
+wtm.h
+vt1720_mobo.h
+revo.h
+prodigy192.h
+pontis.h
+phase.h
+maya44.h
+juli.h
+aureon.h
+amp.h
+envy24ht.h
+se.h
+prodigy_hifi.h
+
+
+*I hope this is the correct way to do things.*
+
+
+SAMPLING RATES:
+
+The Maya44 card (or more exactly, the Wolfson WM8776 codecs) allow a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz for playback and 92 kHz for capture.
+
+As the ICE1724 chip only allows one global sampling rate, this is handled as follows:
+
+* setting the sampling rate on any open PCM device on the maya44 card will always set the *global* sampling rate for all playback and capture channels.
+
+* In the current state of the driver, setting rates of up to 192 kHz is permitted even for capture devices.
+
+*AVOID CAPTURING AT RATES ABOVE 96kHz*, even though it may appear to work. The codec cannot actually capture at such rates, meaning poor quality.
+
+
+I propose some additional code for limiting the sampling rate when setting on a capture pcm device. However because of the global sampling rate, this logic would be somewhat problematic.
+
+The proposed code (currently deactivated) is in ice1712.h.patch, ice1724.c and maya44.c (in pci/ice1712).
+
+
+SOUND DEVICES:
+
+PCM devices correspond to inputs/outputs as follows (assuming Maya44 is card #0):
+
+hw:0,0 input - stereo, analog input 1+2
+hw:0,0 output - stereo, analog output 1+2
+hw:0,1 input - stereo, analog input 3+4 OR S/PDIF input
+hw:0,1 output - stereo, analog output 3+4 (and SPDIF out)
+
+
+NAMING OF MIXER CONTROLS:
+
+(for more information about the signal flow, please refer to the block diagram on p.24 of the ESI Maya44 manual, or in the ESI windows software).
+
+
+PCM: (digital) output level for channel 1+2
+PCM 1: same for channel 3+4
+
+Mic Phantom+48V: switch for +48V phantom power for electrostatic microphones on input 1/2.
+    Make sure this is not turned on while any other source is connected to input 1/2.
+    It might damage the source and/or the maya44 card.
+
+Mic/Line input: if switch is is on, input jack 1/2 is microphone input (mono), otherwise line input (stereo).
+
+Bypass: analogue bypass from ADC input to output for channel 1+2. Same as "Monitor" in the windows driver.
+Bypass 1: same for channel 3+4.
+
+Crossmix: cross-mixer from channels 1+2 to channels 3+4
+Crossmix 1: cross-mixer from channels 3+4 to channels 1+2
+
+IEC958 Output: switch for S/PDIF output.
+    This is not supported by the ESI windows driver.
+    S/PDIF should output the same signal as channel 3+4. [untested!]
+
+
+Digitial output selectors:
+
+    These switches allow a direct digital routing from the ADCs to the DACs.
+    Each switch determines where the digital input data to one of the DACs comes from.
+    They are not supported by the ESI windows driver.
+    For normal operation, they should all be set to "PCM out".
+
+H/W: Output source channel 1
+H/W 1: Output source channel 2
+H/W 2: Output source channel 3
+H/W 3: Output source channel 4
+
+H/W 4 ... H/W 9: unknown function, left in to enable testing.
+    Possibly some of these control S/PDIF output(s).
+    If these turn out to be unused, they will go away in later driver versions.
+
+Selectable values for each of the digital output selectors are:
+   "PCM out" -> DAC output of the corresponding channel (default setting)
+   "Input 1"...
+   "Input 4" -> direct routing from ADC output of the selected input channel
