SLIMbus (Serial Low Power Interchip Media Bus) is a specification developed by MIPI (Mobile Industry Processor Interface) alliance. SLIMbus is a 2-wire implementation, which is used to communicate with peripheral components like audio-codec. SLIMbus uses Time-Division-Multiplexing to accommodate multiple data channels, and control channel. Control channel has messages to do device-enumeration, messages to send/receive control-data to/from SLIMbus devices, messages for port/channel management, and messages to do bandwidth allocation. The framework supports multiple instances of the bus (1 controller per bus), and multiple slave devices per controller. This patch adds support to basic silmbus core which includes support to SLIMbus type, slimbus device registeration and some basic data structures.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
