Linux kernel source tree
IPU7 irmware is generated and released as signed Code Partition Directory (CPD) format file which is aligned with the SPI flash code partition definition. The driver parses the CPD based on the layout. Syscom is an inter-process(or) communication mechanism between an IPU and host. Syscom uses message queues for message exchange between IPU and host. Each message queue has its consumer and producer, host queue messages to firmware as the producer and then firmware to dequeue the messages as consumer and vice versa. IPU and host use shared registers or memory to reside the read and write indices which are updated by consumer and producer. IPU7 firmware defined its boot sequence, driver setup the boot configuration and program the boot parameters to start and run the firmware.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
