These interfaces are not currently documented. + +Interconnect debugfs interfaces +------------------------------- + +Like several other subsystems interconnect will create some files for debugging +and introspection. Files in debugfs are not considered ABI so application +software shouldn't rely on format details change between kernel versions. + +``/sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_summary``: + +Show all interconnect nodes in the system with their aggregated bandwidth +request. Indented under each node show bandwidth requests from each device. + +``/sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_graph``: + +Show the interconnect graph in the graphviz dot format. It shows all +interconnect nodes and links in the system and groups together nodes from the +same provider as subgraphs. The format is human-readable and can also be piped +through dot to generate diagrams in many graphical formats:: + + $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/interconnect/interconnect_graph | \ + dot -Tsvg > interconnect_graph.svg + +The ``test-client`` directory provides interfaces for issuing BW requests to +any arbitrary path. Note that for safety reasons, this feature is disabled by +default without a Kconfig to enable it. Enabling it requires code changes to +``#define INTERCONNECT_ALLOW_WRITE_DEBUGFS``.
