The Unisys sub-tree contains three drivers for the "Unisys Secure Partition"
(s-Par(R)): visorhba, visorinput, visornic.

They have no maintainers, in fact the only one that is listed in MAINTAINERS
has an unreacheable email address. During 2021 and 2022 several patches have
been submitted to these drivers but nobody at Unisys cared of reviewing the
changes. Probably, also the "sparmaintainer" internal list of unisys.com is
not anymore read by interested Unisys' engineers.

Therefore, remove the ./unisys subdirectory of staging and delete the related
entries in the MAINTAINERS, Kconfig, Makefile files.

-1. Overview
------------
-
-This document describes the driver set for Unisys Secure Partitioning
-(s-Par(R)).
-
-s-Par is firmware that provides hardware partitioning capabilities for
-splitting large-scale Intel x86 servers into multiple isolated
-partitions. s-Par provides a set of para-virtualized device drivers to
-allow guest partitions on the same server to share devices that would
-normally be unsharable, specifically:
-
-* visornic - network interface
-* visorhba - scsi disk adapter
-* visorinput - keyboard and mouse
-
-These drivers conform to the standard Linux bus/device model described
-within Documentation/driver-api/driver-model/, and utilize a driver named
-visorbus to present the virtual busses involved. Drivers in the 'visor*'
-driver set are commonly referred to as "guest drivers" or "client drivers".
-All drivers except visorbus expose a device of a specific usable class to the
-Linux guest environment (e.g., block, network, or input), and are collectively
-referred to as "function drivers".
-
-The back-end for each device is owned and managed by a small,
-single-purpose service partition in the s-Par firmware, which communicates
-with each guest partition sharing that device through an area of shared memory
-called a "channel". In s-Par nomenclature, the back-end is often referred to
-as the "service partition", "IO partition" (for virtual network and scsi disk
-devices), or "console partition" (for virtual keyboard and mouse devices).
-
-Each virtual device requires exactly 1 dedicated channel, which the guest
-driver and back-end use to communicate.  The hypervisor need not intervene
-(other than normal interrupt handling) in the interactions that occur across
-this channel.
-
-NOT covered in this document:
-
-* s-Par also supports sharing physical PCI adapters via SR-IOV, but
-  because this requires no specific support in the guest partitions, it will
-  not be discussed in this document.  Shared SR-IOV devices should be used
-  wherever possible for highest performance.
-
-* Because the s-Par back-end provides a standard EFI framebuffer to each
-  guest, the already-existing efifb Linux driver is used to provide guest
-  video access. Thus, the only s-Par-unique support that is necessary to
-  provide a guest graphics console are for keyboard and mouse (via visorinput).
-
-
-2. Driver Descriptions
-----------------------
-
-2.1. visorbus
--------------
-
-2.1.1. Overview
----------------
-
-The visorbus driver handles the virtual busses on which all of the virtual
-devices reside. It provides a registration function named
-visorbus_register_visor_driver() that is called by each of the function
-drivers at initialization time, which the function driver uses to tell
-visorbus about the device classes (via specifying a list of device type
-GUIDs) it wants to handle. For use by function drivers, visorbus provides
-implementation for struct visor_driver and struct visor_device, as well
-as utility functions for communicating with the back-end.
-
-visorbus is associated with ACPI id "PNP0A07" in modules.alias, so if built
-as a module it will typically be loaded automatically via standard udev or
-systemd (God help us) configurations.
-
-visorbus can similarly force auto-loading of function drivers for virtual
-devices it discovers, as it includes a MODALIAS environment variable of this
-form in the hotplug uevent environment when each virtual device is
-discovered:
-
-    visorbus:<device type GUID>
-
-visorbus notifies each function driver when a device of its registered class
-arrives and departs, by calling the function driver's probe() and remove()
-methods.
-
-The actual struct device objects that correspond to each virtual bus and
-each virtual device are created and owned by visorbus.  These device objects
-are created in response to messages from the s-Par back-end received on a
-special control channel called the "controlvm channel" (each guest partition
-has access to exactly 1 controlvm channel), and have a lifetime that is
-independent of the function drivers that control them.
-
-2.1.2. "struct visor device" Function Driver Interfaces
--------------------------------------------------------
-
-The interface between visorbus and its function drivers is defined in
-visorbus.h, and described below.
-
-When a visor function driver loads, it calls visorbus_register_visor_driver()
-to register itself with visorbus. The significant information passed in this
-exchange is as follows:
-
-* the GUID(s) of the channel type(s) that are handled by this driver, as
-  well as a "friendly name" identifying each (this will be published under
-  /sys/devices/visorbus<x>/dev<y>)
-
-* the addresses of callback functions to be called whenever a virtual
-  device/channel with the appropriate channel-type GUID(s) appears or
-  disappears
-
-* the address of a "channel_interrupt" function, which will be automatically
-  called at specific intervals to enable the driver to poll the device
-  channel for activity
-
-The following functions implemented within each function driver will be
-called automatically by the visorbus driver at appropriate times:
-
-* The probe() function notifies about the creation of each new virtual
-  device/channel instance.
-
-* The remove() function notifies about the destruction of a virtual
-  device/channel instance.
-
-* The channel_interrupt() function is called at frequent intervals to
-  give the function driver an opportunity to poll the virtual device channel
-  for requests.  Information is passed to this function to enable the
-  function driver to use the visorchannel_signalinsert() and
-  visorchannel_signalremove() functions to respond to and initiate activity
-  over the channel.  (Note that since it is the visorbus driver that
-  determines when this is called, it is very easy to switch to
-  interrupt-driven mechanisms when available for particular virtual device
-  types.)
-
-* The pause() function is called should it ever be necessary to direct the
-  function driver to temporarily stop accessing the device channel.  An
-  example of when this is needed is when the service partition implementing
-  the back-end of the virtual device needs to be recovered.  After a
-  successful return of pause(), the function driver must not access the
-  device channel until a subsequent resume() occurs.
-
-* The resume() function is the "book-end" to pause(), and is described above.
-
-2.1.3. sysfs Advertised Information
------------------------------------
-
-Because visorbus is a standard Linux bus driver in the model described in
-Documentation/driver-api/driver-model/, the hierarchy of s-Par virtual devices is
-published in the sysfs tree beneath /bus/visorbus/, e.g.,
-/sys/bus/visorbus/devices/ might look like:
-
-    vbus1:dev1 -> ../../../devices/visorbus1/vbus1:dev1
-    vbus1:dev2 -> ../../../devices/visorbus1/vbus1:dev2
-    vbus1:dev3 -> ../../../devices/visorbus1/vbus1:dev3
-    vbus2:dev0 -> ../../../devices/visorbus2/vbus2:dev0
-    vbus2:dev1 -> ../../../devices/visorbus2/vbus2:dev1
-    vbus2:dev2 -> ../../../devices/visorbus2/vbus2:dev2
-    visorbus1 -> ../../../devices/visorbus1
-    visorbus2 -> ../../../devices/visorbus2
-
-visor_device notes:
-
-* Each visorbus<n> entry denotes the existence of a struct visor_device
-  denoting virtual bus #<n>.  A unique s-Par channel exists for each such
-  virtual bus.
-
-* Virtual bus numbers uniquely identify s-Par back-end service partitions.
-  In this example, bus 1 corresponds to the s-Par console partition
-  (controls keyboard, video, and mouse), whereas bus 2 corresponds to the
-  s-Par IO partition (controls network and disk).
-
-* Each vbus<x>:dev<y> entry denotes the existence of a struct visor_device
-  denoting virtual device #<y> outboard of virtual bus #<x>.  A unique s-Par
-  channel exists for each such virtual device.
-
-* If a function driver has loaded and claimed a particular device, the
-  bus/visorbus/devices/vbus<x>:dev<y>/driver symlink will indicate that
-  function driver.
-
-Every active visorbus device will have a sysfs subtree under:
-
-    /sys/devices/visorbus<x>/vbus<x>:dev<y>/
-
-The following files exist under /sys/devices/visorbus<x>/vbus<x>:dev<y>:
-
-    subsystem                 link to sysfs tree that describes the
-                              visorbus bus type; e.g.:
-                                  ../../../bus/visorbus
-
-    driver                    link to sysfs tree that describes the

-                              e.g.:
-                                  ../../../bus/visorbus/drivers/visorhba
-                              Note that this "driver" link will not exist
-                              if the appropriate function driver has not
-                              been loaded yet.
-

-
-        clientpartition       handle identifying the guest (client) side
-                              of this channel, e.g. 0x10000000.
-
-        nbytes                total size of this channel in bytes
-
-        physaddr              the guest physical address for the base of
-                              the channel
-
-        typeguid              a GUID identifying the channel type, in
-                              xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx notation
-
-        typename              a "friendly name" for this channel type, e.g.,
-                              "keyboard".  Note that this name is provided by
-                              a particular function driver, so "typename"
-                              will return an empty string until AFTER the
-                              appropriate function driver controlling this
-                              channel type is loaded
-
-        zoneguid              a GUID identifying the channel zone, in
-                              xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx notation
-
-
-2.2. visorhba
--------------
-
-The visorhba driver registers with visorbus as the function driver to
-handle virtual scsi disk devices, specified using the
-VISOR_VHBA_CHANNEL_GUID type in the visorbus_register_visor_driver()
-call. visorhba uses scsi_add_host() to expose a Linux block device
-(e.g., /sys/block/) in the guest environment for each s-Par virtual device.
-
-visorhba provides access to a shared SCSI host bus adapter and one or more
-disk devices, by proxying SCSI commands between the guest and the service
-partition that owns the shared SCSI adapter, using a channel between the
-guest and the service partition. The disks that appear on the shared bus
-are defined by the s-Par configuration and enforced by the service partition,
-while the guest driver handles sending commands and handling responses. Each
-disk is shared as a whole to a guest. Sharing the bus adapter in this way
-provides resiliency; should the device encounter an error, only the service
-partition is rebooted, and the device is reinitialized. This allows
-guests to continue running and to recover from the error.
-
-When compiled as a module, visorhba can be autoloaded by visorbus in
-standard udev/systemd environments, as it includes the modules.alias
-definition:
-
-    "visorbus:"+VISOR_VHBA_CHANNEL_GUID_STR
-
-i.e.:
-
-    alias visorbus:414815ed-c58c-11da-95a9-00e08161165f visorhba
-
-
-2.3. visornic
--------------
-
-The visornic driver registers with visorbus as the function driver to
-handle virtual network devices, specified using the
-VISOR_VNIC_CHANNEL_GUID type in the visorbus_register_visor_driver()
-call. visornic uses register_netdev() to expose a Linux device of class net
-(e.g., /sys/class/net/) in the guest environment for each s-Par virtual
-device.
-
-visornic provides a paravirtualized network interface to a
-guest by proxying buffer information between the guest and the service
-partition that owns the shared network interface, using a channel
-between the guest and the service partition. The connectivity of this
-interface with the shared interface and possibly other guest
-partitions is defined by the s-Par configuration and enforced by the
-service partition; the guest driver handles communication and link
-status.
-
-When compiled as a module, visornic can be autoloaded by visorbus in
-standard udev/systemd environments, as it includes the modules.alias
-definition:
-
-    "visorbus:"+VISOR_VNIC_CHANNEL_GUID_STR
-
-i.e.:
-
-    alias visorbus:8cd5994d-c58e-11da-95a9-00e08161165f visornic
-
-
-2.4. visorinput
----------------
-
-The visorinput driver registers with visorbus as the function driver to
-handle human input devices, specified using the
-VISOR_KEYBOARD_CHANNEL_GUID and VISOR_MOUSE_CHANNEL_GUID
-types in the visorbus_register_visor_driver() call. visorinput uses
-input_register_device() to expose devices of class input
-(e.g., /sys/class/input/) for virtual keyboard and virtual mouse devices.
-A s-Par virtual keyboard device maps 1-to-1 with a Linux input device
-named "visor Keyboard", while a s-Par virtual mouse device has 2 Linux input
-devices created for it: 1 named "visor Wheel", and 1 named "visor Mouse".
-
-By registering as input class devices, modern versions of X will
-automatically find and properly use s-Par virtual keyboard and mouse devices.
-As the s-Par back-end reports keyboard and mouse activity via events on the
-virtual device channel, the visorinput driver delivers the activity to the
-Linux environment by calling input_report_key() and input_report_abs().
-
-You can interact with the guest console using the usyscon Partition Desktop
-(a.k.a., "pd") application, provided as part of s-Par.  After installing the
-usyscon Partition Desktop into a Linux environment via the
-usyscon_partitiondesktop-*.rpm, or into a Windows environment via
-PartitionDesktop.msi, you will be able to launch a console for your guest
-Linux environment by clicking the console icon in the s-Par web UI.
-
-When compiled as a module, visorinput can be autoloaded by visorbus in
-standard udev/systemd environments, as it includes the modules.alias
-definition:
-
-    "visorbus:"+VISOR_MOUSE_CHANNEL_GUID_STR
-    "visorbus:"+VISOR_KEYBOARD_CHANNEL_GUID_STR
-
-i.e.:
-
-    alias visorbus:c73416d0-b0b8-44af-b304-9d2ae99f1b3d visorinput
-    alias visorbus:addf07d4-94a9-46e2-81c3-61abcdbdbd87 visorinput

-3. Minimum Required Driver Set
-------------------------------
-
-visorbus is required for every Linux guest running under s-Par.
-
-visorhba is typically required for a Linux guest running under s-Par, as it
-is required if your guest boot disk is a virtual device provided by the s-Par
-back-end, which is the default configuration.  However, for advanced
-configurations where the Linux guest boots via an SR-IOV-provided HBA or
-SAN disk for example, visorhba is not technically required.
-
-visornic is typically required for a Linux guest running under s-Par, as it
-is required if your guest network interface is a virtual device provided by
-the s-Par back-end, which is the default configuration.  However, for
-configurations where the Linux guest is provided with an SR-IOV NIC
-for example, visornic is not technically required.
-
-visorinput is only required for a Linux guest running under s-Par if you
-require graphics-mode access to your guest console.

-TODO:
-	- enhance visornic to use channel_interrupt() hook instead of a
-	  kernel thread
-	- enhance visorhba to use channel_interrupt() hook instead of a
-	  kernel thread
-	- teach visorbus to handle virtual interrupts triggered by s-Par
-	  back-end, and call function driver's channel_interrupt() function
-	  when they occur
-	- enhance debugfs interfaces (e.g., per device, etc.)
-	- upgrade/remove deprecated workqueue operations

-	help
-		The Unisys visorhba driver provides support for s-Par HBA
-		devices exposed on the s-Par visorbus. When a message is sent
-		to visorbus to create a HBA device, the probe function of
-		visorhba is called to create the scsi device.
-		If you say Y here, you will enable the Unisys visorhba driver.

-		The Unisys Visornic driver provides support for s-Par network
-		devices exposed on the s-Par visorbus. When a message is sent
-		to visorbus to create a network device, the probe function of
-		visornic is called to create the netdev device. Networking on

You forgot to at least cc: the people/list on the MAINTAINERS entry that
you are removing here, to give them a hint that this is happening in
case they want to speak up here (and to give us the ability to point to
that years later when they complain they were never notified...)

Also, if you are in the "delete code" mood, I think drivers/staging/vme/
and drivers/vme/ can probably also be deleted given that the maintainer
for that has moved on to other jobs.  Ask them and see!

thanks,

greg k-h

Yes, this is a good idea. I'll submit a v2 and add two "Cc:" lines, one to 
David Kershner and the other to the "sparmaintainer" list at unisys.com.

I can and will do exactly as you just suggested, but only after April 22nd 
(unless others want to do these tasks sooner, and in that case they are 
welcome :)).

There is another contact in the TODO file (last updated 2015 though ;))

Hi Alison, Greg,

Thank you very much for noticing that other contact :) 

In the last 12 months I have sent several patches for Unisys s-Par drivers 
but I never noticed that other contact simply because I only ever use 
scripts / get_maintainer.pl to find out who and to which lists to send my 
works.

@Greg: 

Do you think that we should care of a contact that is no more active since 
2015 and resubmit a v3 with one more "Cc:" line? I have no problems to 
resubmit, I just want to be sure that this is the right thing to do.

Thanks,

Fabio M. De Francesco

I didn't see a v2, so confused about a v3. You could simply do a group
reply and add the contact, that'll put a trail in lore. Not my call.
Guessing Greg has a protocol for such removals.

Hi Alison,

The patch v2 is at https://lore.kernel.org/outreachy/
20220413080111.13861-1-fmdefrancesco@gmail.com/T/#u

Greg required me to send that v2 because I forgot to Cc the David Kershner  
and the Unisys internal list. 

I don't yet know if Greg's protocol for such removals requires to Cc random 
people taken from a TODO file, people who didn't even care to add 
themselves to MAINTAINERS, but I'm pretty sure that, if it is so, the only 
option is to send a v3.

In order to make things as Greg requires, I'd better wait for him to 
respond to my previous email.

Again, thanks,

Fabio
