··· 50 50 The driver exposes a misc device called /dev/mei. 51 51 52 52 An application maintains communication with an Intel ME feature while 53 - /dev/mei is open. The binding to a specific features is performed by calling 53 + /dev/mei is open. The binding to a specific feature is performed by calling 54 54 MEI_CONNECT_CLIENT_IOCTL, which passes the desired UUID. 55 55 The number of instances of an Intel ME feature that can be opened 56 56 at the same time depends on the Intel ME feature, but most of the 57 57 features allow only a single instance. 58 58 59 59 The Intel AMT Host Interface (Intel AMTHI) feature supports multiple 60 - simultaneous user applications. Therefore, the Intel MEI driver handles 61 - this internally by maintaining request queues for the applications. 60 + simultaneous user connected applications. The Intel MEI driver 61 + handles this internally by maintaining request queues for the applications. 62 62 63 - The driver is oblivious to data that is passed between firmware feature 63 + The driver is transparent to data that are passed between firmware feature 64 64 and host application. 65 65 66 66 Because some of the Intel ME features can change the system 67 67 configuration, the driver by default allows only a privileged 68 68 user to access it. 69 69 70 - A code snippet for an application communicating with 71 - Intel AMTHI client: 70 + A code snippet for an application communicating with Intel AMTHI client: 71 + 72 72 struct mei_connect_client_data data; 73 73 fd = open(MEI_DEVICE); 74 74 ··· 185 185 2) Intel MEI driver - connects to the watchdog feature, configures the 186 186 watchdog and sends the heartbeats. 187 187 188 - The Intel MEI driver uses the kernel watchdog to configure the Intel AMT 188 + The Intel MEI driver uses the kernel watchdog API to configure the Intel AMT 189 189 Watchdog and to send heartbeats to it. The default timeout of the 190 190 watchdog is 120 seconds. 191 191
