gpio: add a userspace chardev ABI for GPIOs
A new chardev that is to be used for userspace GPIO access is
added in this patch. It is intended to gradually replace the
horribly broken sysfs ABI.
Using a chardev has many upsides:
- All operations are per-gpiochip, which is the actual
device underlying the GPIOs, making us tie in to the
kernel device model properly.
- Hotpluggable GPIO controllers can come and go, as this
kind of problem has been know to userspace for character
devices since ages, and if a gpiochip handle is held in
userspace we know we will break something, whereas the
sysfs is stateless.
- The one-value-per-file rule of sysfs is really hard to
maintain when you want to twist more than one knob at a time,
for example have in-kernel APIs to switch several GPIO
lines at the same time, and this will be possible to do
with a single ioctl() from userspace, saving a lot of
context switching.
We also need to add a new bus type for GPIO. This is
necessary for example for userspace coldplug, where sysfs is
traversed to find the boot-time device nodes and create the
character devices in /dev.
This new chardev ABI is *non* *optional* and can be counted
on to be present in the future, emphasizing the preference
of this ABI.
The ABI only implements one single ioctl() to get the name
and number of GPIO lines of a chip. Even this is debatable:
see it as a minimal example for review. This ABI shall be
ruthlessly reviewed and etched in stone.
The old /sys/class/gpio is still optional to compile in,
but will be deprecated.
Unique device IDs are created using IDR, which is overkill
and insanely scalable, but also well tested.

gpio: userspace ABI for reading/writing GPIO lines
This adds a userspace ABI for reading and writing GPIO lines.
The mechanism returns an anonymous file handle to a request
to read/write n offsets from a gpiochip. This file handle
in turn accepts two ioctl()s: one that reads and one that
writes values to the selected lines.
- Handles can be requested as input/output, active low,
open drain, open source, however when you issue a request
for n lines with GPIO_GET_LINEHANDLE_IOCTL, they must all
have the same flags, i.e. all inputs or all outputs, all
open drain etc. If a granular control of the flags for
each line is desired, they need to be requested
individually, not in a batch.
- The GPIOHANDLE_GET_LINE_VALUES_IOCTL read ioctl() can be
issued also to output lines to verify that the hardware
is in the expected state.
- It reads and writes up to GPIOHANDLES_MAX lines at once,
utilizing the .set_multiple() call in the driver if
possible, making the call efficient if several lines
can be written with a single register update.
The limitation of GPIOHANDLES_MAX to 64 lines is done under
the assumption that we may expect hardware that can issue a
transaction updating 64 bits at an instant but unlikely
anything larger than that.
ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Use gpiod_get_value_cansleep() so we support also slowpath
GPIO drivers.
- Fix up the UAPI docs kerneldoc.
- Allocate the anonymous fd last, so that the release
function don't get called until that point of something
fails. After this point, skip the errorpath.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Handle ioctl_compat() properly based on a similar patch
to the other ioctl() handling code.
- Use _IOWR() as we pass pointers both in and out of the
ioctl()
- Use kmalloc() and kfree() for the linehandled, do not
try to be fancy with devm_* it doesn't work the way I
thought.
- Fix const-correctness on the linehandle name field.

transaction updating 64 bits at an instant but unlikely
anything larger than that.
ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Use gpiod_get_value_cansleep() so we support also slowpath
GPIO drivers.
- Fix up the UAPI docs kerneldoc.
- Allocate the anonymous fd last, so that the release
function don't get called until that point of something
fails. After this point, skip the errorpath.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Handle ioctl_compat() properly based on a similar patch
to the other ioctl() handling code.
- Use _IOWR() as we pass pointers both in and out of the
ioctl()
- Use kmalloc() and kfree() for the linehandled, do not
try to be fancy with devm_* it doesn't work the way I
thought.
- Fix const-correctness on the linehandle name field.

gpio: userspace ABI for reading/writing GPIO lines
This adds a userspace ABI for reading and writing GPIO lines.
The mechanism returns an anonymous file handle to a request
to read/write n offsets from a gpiochip. This file handle
in turn accepts two ioctl()s: one that reads and one that
writes values to the selected lines.
- Handles can be requested as input/output, active low,
open drain, open source, however when you issue a request
for n lines with GPIO_GET_LINEHANDLE_IOCTL, they must all
have the same flags, i.e. all inputs or all outputs, all
open drain etc. If a granular control of the flags for
each line is desired, they need to be requested
individually, not in a batch.
- The GPIOHANDLE_GET_LINE_VALUES_IOCTL read ioctl() can be
issued also to output lines to verify that the hardware
is in the expected state.
- It reads and writes up to GPIOHANDLES_MAX lines at once,
utilizing the .set_multiple() call in the driver if
possible, making the call efficient if several lines
can be written with a single register update.
The limitation of GPIOHANDLES_MAX to 64 lines is done under
the assumption that we may expect hardware that can issue a
transaction updating 64 bits at an instant but unlikely
anything larger than that.

- Use gpiod_get_value_cansleep() so we support also slowpath

gpio: add a userspace chardev ABI for GPIOs
A new chardev that is to be used for userspace GPIO access is
added in this patch. It is intended to gradually replace the
horribly broken sysfs ABI.
Using a chardev has many upsides:
- All operations are per-gpiochip, which is the actual
device underlying the GPIOs, making us tie in to the
kernel device model properly.
- Hotpluggable GPIO controllers can come and go, as this
kind of problem has been know to userspace for character
devices since ages, and if a gpiochip handle is held in
userspace we know we will break something, whereas the
sysfs is stateless.
- The one-value-per-file rule of sysfs is really hard to
maintain when you want to twist more than one knob at a time,
for example have in-kernel APIs to switch several GPIO
lines at the same time, and this will be possible to do
with a single ioctl() from userspace, saving a lot of
context switching.
We also need to add a new bus type for GPIO. This is
necessary for example for userspace coldplug, where sysfs is
traversed to find the boot-time device nodes and create the
character devices in /dev.
This new chardev ABI is *non* *optional* and can be counted
on to be present in the future, emphasizing the preference
of this ABI.
The ABI only implements one single ioctl() to get the name
and number of GPIO lines of a chip. Even this is debatable:
see it as a minimal example for review. This ABI shall be
ruthlessly reviewed and etched in stone.
The old /sys/class/gpio is still optional to compile in,
but will be deprecated.
Unique device IDs are created using IDR, which is overkill
and insanely scalable, but also well tested.
