Linus Walleij 316511c013 gpiolib: rename pin range arguments
To be crystal clear on what the arguments mean in this
funtion dealing with both GPIO and PIN ranges with confusing
naming, we now have gpio_offset and pin_offset and we are
on the clear that these are offsets into the specific GPIO
and pin controller respectively. The GPIO chip itself will
of course keep track of the base offset into the global
GPIO number space.

Linus Walleij 3f0f867060 gpiolib: let gpiochip_add_pin_range() specify offset
Like with commit 3c739ad0df
it is not always enough to specify all the pins of a gpio_chip
from offset zero to be added to a pin map range, since the
mapping from GPIO to pin controller may not be linear at all,
but need to be broken into a few consecutive sub-ranges or
1-pin entries for complicated cases. The ranges may also be
sparse.

This alters the signature of the function to accept offsets
into both the GPIO-chip local pinspace and the pin controller
local pinspace.

Linus Walleij 50309a9c2e gpiolib: iron out include ladder mistakes
The <*/gpio.h> includes are updated again: now we need to account
for the problem introduced by commit:
595679a8038584df7b9398bf34f61db3c038bfea
"gpiolib: fix up function prototypes etc"

Actually we need static inlines in include/asm-generic/gpio.h
as well since we may have GPIOLIB but not PINCTRL.
Make sure to move all the CONFIG_PINCTRL business
to the end of the file so we are sure we have
declared struct gpio_chip.

And we need to keep the static inlines in <linux/gpio.h>
but here for the !CONFIG_GENERIC_GPIO case, and then we
may as well throw in a few warnings like the other
prototypes there, if someone would have the bad taste
of compiling without GENERIC_GPIO even.

Linus Walleij 1e63d7b936 gpiolib: separation of pin concerns
The fact that of_gpiochip_add_pin_range() and
gpiochip_add_pin_range() share too much code is fragile and
will invariably mean that bugs need to be fixed in two places
instead of one.

So separate the concerns of gpiolib.c and gpiolib-of.c and
have the latter call the former as back-end. This is necessary
also when going forward with other device descriptions such
as ACPI.

This is done by:

- Adding a return code to gpiochip_add_pin_range() so we can
  reliably check whether this succeeds.

- Get rid of the custom of_pinctrl_add_gpio_range() from
  pinctrl. Instead create of_pinctrl_get() to just retrive the
  pin controller per se from an OF node. This composite
  function was just begging to be deleted, it was way to
  purpose-specific.

- Use pinctrl_dev_get_name() to get the name of the retrieved
  pin controller and use that to call back into the generic
  gpiochip_add_pin_range().

Now the pin range is only allocated and tied to a pin
controller from the core implementation in gpiolib.c.

Linus Walleij 165adc9c17 gpiolib: fix up function prototypes etc
Commit 69e1601bca88809dc118abd1becb02c15a02ec71
"gpiolib: provide provision to register pin ranges"

Got most of it's function prototypes wrong, so fix this up by:

- Moving the void declarations into static inlines in
  <linux/gpio.h> (previously the actual prototypes were declared
  here...)

- Declare the gpiochip_add_pin_range() and
  gpiochip_remove_pin_ranges() functions in <asm-generic/gpio.h>
  together with the pin range struct declaration itself.

- Actually only implement these very functions in gpiolib.c
  if CONFIG_PINCTRL is set.

- Additionally export the symbols since modules will need to
  be able to do this.

Shiraz Hashim f23f1516b6 gpiolib: provide provision to register pin ranges
pinctrl subsystem needs gpio chip base to prepare set of gpio
pin ranges, which a given pinctrl driver can handle. This is
important to handle pinctrl gpio request calls in order to
program a given pin properly for gpio operation.

As gpio base is allocated dynamically during gpiochip
registration, presently there exists no clean way to pass this
information to the pinctrl subsystem.

After few discussions from [1], it was concluded that may be
gpio controller reporting the pin range it supports, is a
better way than pinctrl subsystem directly registering it.

Mark Brown 09d71ff194 gpiolib: Implement devm_gpio_request_one()
Allow drivers to use the modern request and configure idiom together
with devres.

As with plain gpio_request() and gpio_request_one() we can't implement
the old school version in terms of _one() as this would force the
explicit selection of a direction in gpio_request() which could break
systems if we pick the wrong one.  Implementing devm_gpio_request_one()
in terms of devm_gpio_request() would needlessly complicate things or
lead to duplication from the unmanaged version depending on how it's
done.

Mark Brown 7563bbf89d gpiolib/arches: Centralise bolierplate asm/gpio.h
Rather than requiring architectures that use gpiolib but don't have any
need to define anything custom to copy an asm/gpio.h provide a Kconfig
symbol which architectures must select in order to include gpio.h and
for other architectures just provide the trivial implementation directly.

This makes it much easier to do gpiolib updates and is also a step towards
making gpiolib APIs available on every architecture.

For architectures with existing boilerplate code leave a stub header in
place which warns on direct inclusion of asm/gpio.h and includes
linux/gpio.h to catch code that's doing this.  Direct inclusion of
asm/gpio.h has long been deprecated.

when client request for setting the pin to LOW, the
gpio will be set to input direction to make pin in tristate

with value of 1.

Mark said:
: This would be generally useful for embedded systems, especially where

: the driver can avoid having to explicitly wait for the signal to become

: it for quite some time, though.

David said:
: I looked at adding debounce support to the generic GPIO calls (and thus
: gpiolib) some time back, but decided against it.  I forget why at this

: One thing to watch out for is just how variable the hardware capabilities

: for debounce, twl4030 had something odd, OMAPs were more like the Atmel

David Brownell d8f388d8dc gpio: sysfs interface
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs.

    /sys/class/gpio
    	/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
    	/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
        /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
	    /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
	    /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low
	/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
	    /base ... (r/o) same as N
	    /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
	    /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1)

GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new
gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging.
Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute.

Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file,
helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off"
requirements that don't merit full kernel support:

  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export
	... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23);
	use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it,
	when that GPIO can be used as both input and output.
  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport
	... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above

The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO.  The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!).  Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.

Related changes:

  * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip".  When GPIO
    providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of
    that device instead of being "virtual" devices.

  * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have
    been updated.

  * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner"
    field ...  for which missing kerneldoc was added.

  * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs.  Those GPIOs are now
    flagged appropriately when the chip is registered.

Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.

A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this
merges to mainline.

David Brownell 7560fa60fc gpio: <linux/gpio.h> and "no GPIO support here" stubs
Add a <linux/gpio.h> defining fail/warn stubs for GPIO calls on platforms that
don't support the GPIO programming interface.  That includes the arch-specific
implementation glue otherwise.

This facilitates a new model for GPIO usage: drivers that can use GPIOs if
they're available, but don't require them.  One example of such a driver is
NAND driver for various FreeScale chips.  On platforms update with GPIO
support, they can be used instead of a worst-case delay to verify that the
BUSY signal is off.

(Also includes a couple minor unrelated doc updates.)
