+Using the Sample Code
+=====================
+
+mtty.c in samples/vfio-mdev/ directory is a sample driver program to
+demonstrate how to use the mediated device framework.
+
+The sample driver creates an mdev device that simulates a serial port over a PCI
+card.
+
+1. Build and load the mtty.ko module.
+
+   This step creates a dummy device, /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+
+   Files in this device directory in sysfs are similar to the following:
+
+   # tree /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+      /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/
+      |-- mdev_supported_types
+      |   |-- mtty-1
+      |   |   |-- available_instances
+      |   |   |-- create
+      |   |   |-- device_api
+      |   |   |-- devices
+      |   |   `-- name
+      |   `-- mtty-2
+      |       |-- available_instances
+      |       |-- create
+      |       |-- device_api
+      |       |-- devices
+      |       `-- name
+      |-- mtty_dev
+      |   `-- sample_mtty_dev
+      |-- power
+      |   |-- autosuspend_delay_ms
+      |   |-- control
+      |   |-- runtime_active_time
+      |   |-- runtime_status
+      |   `-- runtime_suspended_time
+      |-- subsystem -> ../../../../class/mtty
+      `-- uevent
+
+2. Create a mediated device by using the dummy device that you created in the
+   previous step.
+
+   # echo "83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001" >	\
+              /sys/devices/virtual/mtty/mtty/mdev_supported_types/mtty-2/create
+
+3. Add parameters to qemu-kvm.
+
+   -device vfio-pci,\
+    sysfsdev=/sys/bus/mdev/devices/83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001
+
+4. Boot the VM.
+
+   In the Linux guest VM, with no hardware on the host, the device appears
+   as  follows:
+
+   # lspci -s 00:05.0 -xxvv
+   00:05.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:3253 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])
+           Subsystem: Device 4348:3253
+           Physical Slot: 5
+           Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr-
+   Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
+           Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort-
+   <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-
+           Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 10
+           Region 0: I/O ports at c150 [size=8]
+           Region 1: I/O ports at c158 [size=8]
+           Kernel driver in use: serial
+   00: 48 43 53 32 01 00 00 02 10 02 00 07 00 00 00 00
+   10: 51 c1 00 00 59 c1 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
+   20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 48 43 53 32
+   30: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 01 00 00
+
+   In the Linux guest VM, dmesg output for the device is as follows:
+
+   serial 0000:00:05.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 10 (level, high) -> IRQ
+10
+   0000:00:05.0: ttyS1 at I/O 0xc150 (irq = 10) is a 16550A
+   0000:00:05.0: ttyS2 at I/O 0xc158 (irq = 10) is a 16550A
+
+
+5. In the Linux guest VM, check the serial ports.
+
+   # setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
+   /dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
+   /dev/ttyS1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0xc150, IRQ: 10
+   /dev/ttyS2, UART: 16550A, Port: 0xc158, IRQ: 10
+
+6. Using a minicom or any terminal enulation program, open port /dev/ttyS1 or
+   /dev/ttyS2 with hardware flow control disabled.
+
+7. Type data on the minicom terminal or send data to the terminal emulation
+   program and read the data.
+
+   Data is loop backed from hosts mtty driver.
+
+8. Destroy the mediated device that you created.
+
+   # echo 1 > /sys/bus/mdev/devices/83b8f4f2-509f-382f-3c1e-e6bfe0fa1001/remove
