+AMD Sensor Fusion Hub:-
+======================
+AMD Sensor Fusion Hub is part of a SOC starting from Ryzen based platforms.
+The solution is working well on several OEM products. AMD SFH uses HID over PCIe bus.
+In terms of architecture it resembles ISH .However the major difference is all
+The hid reports are generated as part of kernel driver.

+
+AMD HID Transport Layer :-
+***************************
+AMD SFH transport is also implemented as a bus. Each client application executing in the AMD MP2
+is registered as a device on this bus. MP2 which is an ARM® Cortex-M4 core based co-processor to
+x86. The driver, which binds each device (AMD SFH HID driver) identifies the device type and
+registers with the hid core. Transport drivers attach a constant "struct hid_ll_driver" object with
+each device. Once a device is registered with HID core, the callbacks provided via this struct are
+used by HID core to communicate with the device. AMD HID Transport driver implements the synchronouscalls.
+
+AMD HID Client Layer:-
+**********************
+This layer is responsible to implement HID request and descriptors. As firmware is OS agnostic,
+HID client layer fills the HID request structure and descriptors. HID client layer is in complex
+in nature as it is interface between MP2 PCIe driver and HID. HID client layer initialized
+the MP2 PCIe driver and holds the instance of MP2 driver.It identified the number of sensors
+connected using MP2-PCIe driver and based on that allocate the DRAM address for each and every
+sensor and pass it to MP2-PCIe driver.On enumeration of each sensor, client layer fills out the HID
+Descriptor structure and HID input report structure. HID Feature report structure can be optional.
+The report descriptor structure varies sensor to sensor. Now on enumeration client layer does
+two major things
+1.	Register the HID sensor client to virtual bus (Platform driver) and bind it.
+2.	Probes the AMD HID transport driver. Which in turns register device to the core.
+
+AMD MP2 PCIe layer:-
+********************
+MP2 PCIe Layer is responsible for making all transaction with the firmware over PCIe.
+The connection establishment between firmware and PCIe happens here.
+
+The communication between X86 and MP2 is spilt into three parts.
+1. Command Transfer => C2P Mailbox Register are used
+2. Data Transfer => DRAM
+3. Supported sensor info => P2C Register
+
+Commands are sent to MP2 using C2P Mail Box registers. These C2P  registers are common between x86
+and MP2. Writing into C2P Message register generate interrupt to MP2.  The client layer allocates
+the physical memory and send the same to MP2 for data transfer. MP2 firmware uses HUBIF interface
+to access DRAM memory. For Firmware always write minimum 32 bytes into DRAM.So it is expected that
+driver shall allocate minimum 32 bytes DRAM space.
