gpio: keep the GPIO line names internal

2015-09-24T17:48:53+00:00

This refactors the changes to the GPIO line naming mechanism to
not have so widespread effects, instead we conclude the patch series
by having created a name attribute in the GPIO descriptor, that need
not be globally unique, and it will be initialized from the old
.names array in struct gpio_chip if it exists, then used in the legacy
sysfs code like the array was used previously.

The associated changes to name lines from the device tree are
controversial and need to stand alone from this. Resulting changes:

1. Remove the export and the header for the gpio_name_to_desc() as so
far the only use is inside gpiolib.c. Staticize gpio_name_to_desc()
and move it above the only function using it.

2. Only print a warning if there are two GPIO lines with the same name.
The reason is to preserve current behaviour: before the previous
changes to the naming mechanism this would not reject probing the
driver, instead the error would occur when trying to export the line
in sysfs, so restore this behaviour, but print a friendly warning
if names collide.

gpio: Introduce gpio descriptor 'name'

2015-09-24T17:48:51+00:00

The latest gpio hogging mechanism assigns each gpio a 'line-name' in the
devicetree. The 'name' field is different from the 'label' field.
'label' is only used for requested GPIOs to describe its current use by
driver or userspace.

The 'name' field describes the GPIO itself, not the use. This is most
likely identical to the label in the schematic on the GPIO line and
should help to find this particular GPIO.

This is equivalent to the gpiochip->names array. However names should be
stored in the GPIO descriptor. We will use gpiochip->names in the future
only as initializer for the GPIO descriptors for drivers that assign
GPIO names hardcoded. All other GPIO names will be parsed from DT and
directly assigned to the GPIO descriptor.

This patch adds a helper function to find gpio descriptors by name
instead of gpio number.

gpio: make flags mandatory for gpiod_get functions

2015-07-06T08:39:24+00:00

Now that all[1] users of the gpiod_get functions are converted to make
use of the up to now optional flags parameter, make it mandatory which
allows to remove some cpp magic.

[1] all but etraxfs-uart which is broken anyhow and I'm allowed to
    ignore it by Jesper Nilsson :-)

gpiolib: rename gpiod_set_array to gpiod_set_array_value

2015-06-01T13:10:09+00:00

There have been concerns that the function names gpiod_set_array() and
gpiod_get_array() might be confusing to users. One might expect
gpiod_get_array() to return array values, while it is actually the array
counterpart of gpiod_get(). To be consistent with the single descriptor API
we could rename gpiod_set_array() to gpiod_set_array_value(). This makes
some function names a bit lengthy: gpiod_set_raw_array_value_cansleep().

gpiolib: Add missing dummies for the unified device properties interface

2015-05-25T20:26:45+00:00

If GPIOLIB=n:

    drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c: In function ‘gpio_leds_create’:
    drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c:187: error: implicit declaration of function ‘devm_get_gpiod_from_child’
    drivers/leds/leds-gpio.c:187: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

Add dummies for fwnode_get_named_gpiod() and devm_get_gpiod_from_child()
for the !GPIOLIB case to fix this.

gpio: remove gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low

2015-05-12T08:46:53+00:00

Remove gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low (and gpio_sysfs_set_active_low) which
allowed code to change the polarity of a gpio line even after it had
been exported through sysfs.

Drivers should not care, and generally does not know, about gpio-line
polarity which is a hardware feature that needs to be described by
firmware.

It is currently possible to define gpio-line polarity in device-tree and
acpi firmware or using platform data. Userspace can also change the
polarity through sysfs.

Note that drivers using the legacy gpio interface could still use
GPIOF_ACTIVE_LOW to change the polarity before exporting the gpio.

There are no in-kernel users of this interface.

gpio: add parameter to allow the use named gpios

2015-03-04T12:58:58+00:00

The gpio binding document says that new code should always use named
gpios. Patch 40b73183 added support to parse a list of gpios from child
nodes, but does not make it possible to use named gpios. This patch adds
the con_id property and implements it is done in gpiolib.c, where the
old-style of using unnamed gpios still works.
