Hi Rob, Thanks for the documentation feedback. I have prepared the documentation changes: the arm64 guide no longer uses “Current ABI” or duplicates the file descriptions, and the seven sysfs files are now documented using the standard Documentation/ABI format. The driver accesses IMP_CPUECTLR_EL1 (S3_0_C15_C1_4) and IMP_CPUECTLR2_EL1 (S3_0_C15_C1_5). I am checking with our firmware team for the kernel-visible contract that guarantees or reports EL1 access. I will not add a speculative write-and-see-if-the-system-survives probe. I will hold v2 pending that answer and the arm64 maintainers’ direction on the interface. Thanks, Koba
