+Overview
+========
+
+The framework begins by gathering information about the firmware file
+to be downloaded through the request_firmware function. It supports
+the ELF format and parses the firmware image to identify the physical
+addresses that need to be populated from the corresponding ELF sections.
+Once this information is obtained from the driver, the framework transfers
+the data to the specified addresses and starts the remote processor,
+along with subdevices.
+
+Dependent devices, referred to as `subdevices` within the framework,
+are also managed post-registration by their respective drivers.
+Subdevices can register themselves using `rproc_(add/remove)_subdev`.
+Non-remoteproc drivers can use subdevices as a way to logically connect
+to remote and get lifecycle notifications of the remote.
+
+The framework oversees the lifecycle of the remote and
+provides the `rproc_report_crash` function, which the driver invokes
+upon receiving a crash notification from the remote. The
+notification method can differ based on the design of the remote
+processor and its communication with the application processor. For
+instance, if the remote is a DSP equipped with a watchdog,
+unresponsive behavior triggers the watchdog, generating an interrupt
+that routes to the application processor, allowing it to call
+`rproc_report_crash` in the driver's interrupt context.
+
+During crash handling, the framework performs the following actions:
+
+a. Sends a request to stop the remote and any connected or
+   dependent subdevices.
+b. Generates a coredump, dumping all `resources` requested by the
+   remote alongside relevant debugging information. Resources are
+   explained below.
+c. Reloads the firmware and restarts the remote processor.
+
+If the `RPROC_FEAT_ATTACH_ON_RECOVERY` flag is set, the detach and
+attach callbacks of the driver are invoked without reloading the
+firmware. This is useful when the remote requires no
+assistance for recovery, or when the application processor can restart
+independently. After recovery, the application processor can reattach
+to the remote.
