kernel/include/linux/mfd/qnap-mcu.h, branch linux-6.18.yHosts the 0x221E linux distro kernel.https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/atom?h=linux-6.18.y2025-10-01T09:28:13Zmfd: qnap-mcu: Include linux/types.h in qnap-mcu.h shared header2025-10-01T09:28:13ZHeiko Stuebnerheiko@sntech.de2025-08-04T13:07:23Zurn:sha1:5e1c88679174e4bfe5d152060b06d370bd85de80
Relying on other components to include those basic types is unreliable
and may cause compile errors like:
../include/linux/mfd/qnap-mcu.h:13:9: error: unknown type name ‘u32’
13 | u32 baud_rate;
| ^~~
../include/linux/mfd/qnap-mcu.h:17:9: error: unknown type name ‘bool’
17 | bool usb_led;
| ^~~~
So make sure, the types used in the header are available.

mfd: Add base driver for qnap-mcu devices2024-12-17T13:14:33ZHeiko Stuebnerheiko@sntech.de2024-11-07T11:47:07Zurn:sha1:998f70d1806bb718a7565f350283e4a79c8cbb4b
These microcontroller units are used in network-attached-storage devices
made by QNAP and provide additional functionality to the system.
This adds the base driver that implements the serial protocol via
serdev and additionally hooks into the poweroff handlers to turn
off the parts of the system not supplied by the general PMIC.
Turning off (at least the TSx33 devices using Rockchip SoCs) consists of
two separate actions. Turning off the MCU alone does not turn off the main
SoC and turning off only the SoC/PMIC does not turn off the hard-drives.
Also if the MCU is not turned off, the system also won't start again until
it is unplugged from power.
So on shutdown the MCU needs to be turned off separately before the
main PMIC.
The protocol spoken by the MCU is sadly not documented, but was
obtained by listening to the chatter on the serial port, as thankfully
the "hal_app" program from QNAPs firmware allows triggering all/most
MCU actions from the command line.
The implementation of how to talk to the serial device got some
inspiration from the rave-sp servdev driver.
