During PCH (platform/board) manufacturing process a global platform reset has to be induced in order for the configuration changes take the effect upon following platform reset. This is an internal platform state and is not intended to be used in the regular platform resets. The setting is exposed via ETR3 (Extended Test Mode Register 3). After the manufacturing process is completed the register cannot be written anymore and is hardware locked. This setting was commonly done by accessing PMC registers via /dev/mem but due to security concerns /dev/mem access is much more restricted, hence the reason for exposing this setting via the dedicated sysfs interface. To prevent post manufacturing abuse the register is protected by hardware locking and the file is set to read-only mode via is_visible handler. The register in MMIO space is defined for Cannon Lake and newer PCHs.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
