Merge tag 'gpio-v3.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull bulk of gpio updates from Linus Walleij: "A pretty big chunk of changes this time, but it has all been on rotation in linux-next and had some testing. Of course there will be some amount of fixes on top... - Merged in a branch of irqchip changes from Thomas Gleixner: we need to have new callbacks from the irqchip to determine if the GPIO line will be eligible for IRQs, and this callback must be able to say "no". After some thinking I got the branch from tglx and have switched all current users over to use this. - Based on tglx patches, we have added some generic irqchip helpers in the gpiolib core. These will help centralize code when GPIO drivers have simple chained/cascaded IRQs. Drivers will still define their irqchip vtables, but the gpiolib core will take care of irqdomain set-up, mapping from local offsets to Linux irqs, and reserve resources by marking the GPIO lines for IRQs. - Initially the PL061 and Nomadik GPIO/pin control drivers have been switched over to use the new gpiochip-to-irqchip infrastructure with more drivers expected for the next kernel cycle. The factoring of just two drivers still makes it worth it so it is already a win. - A new driver for the Synopsys DesignWare APB GPIO block. - Modify the DaVinci GPIO driver to be reusable also for the new TI Keystone architecture. - A new driver for the LSI ZEVIO SoCs. - Delete the obsolte tnetv107x driver. - Some incremental work on GPIO descriptors: have gpiod_direction_output() use a logical level, respecting assertion polarity through ACTIVE_LOW flags, adding gpiod_direction_output_raw() for the case where you want to set that very value. Add gpiochip_get_desc() to fetch a GPIO descriptor from a specific offset on a certain chip inside driver code. - Switch ACPI GPIO code over to using gpiochip_get_desc() and get rid of gpio_to_desc(). - The ACPI GPIO event handling code has been reworked after encountering an actual real life implementation. - Support for ACPI GPIO operation regions. - Generic GPIO chips can now be assigned labels/names from platform data. - We now clamp values returned from GPIO drivers to the boolean [0,1] range. - Some improved documentation on how to use the polarity flag was added. - a large slew of incremental driver updates and non-critical fixes.

+1.1) GPIO specifier best practices
+----------------------------------
+
+A gpio-specifier should contain a flag indicating the GPIO polarity; active-
+high or active-low. If it does, the follow best practices should be followed:
+
+The gpio-specifier's polarity flag should represent the physical level at the
+GPIO controller that achieves (or represents, for inputs) a logically asserted
+value at the device. The exact definition of logically asserted should be
+defined by the binding for the device. If the board inverts the signal between
+the GPIO controller and the device, then the gpio-specifier will represent the
+opposite physical level than the signal at the device's pin.
+
+When the device's signal polarity is configurable, the binding for the
+device must either:
+
+a) Define a single static polarity for the signal, with the expectation that
+any software using that binding would statically program the device to use
+that signal polarity.
+
+The static choice of polarity may be either:
+
+a1) (Preferred) Dictated by a binding-specific DT property.
+
+or:
+
+a2) Defined statically by the DT binding itself.
+
+In particular, the polarity cannot be derived from the gpio-specifier, since
+that would prevent the DT from separately representing the two orthogonal
+concepts of configurable signal polarity in the device, and possible board-
+level signal inversion.
+
+or:
+
+b) Pick a single option for device signal polarity, and document this choice
+in the binding. The gpio-specifier should represent the polarity of the signal
+(at the GPIO controller) assuming that the device is configured for this
+particular signal polarity choice. If software chooses to program the device
+to generate or receive a signal of the opposite polarity, software will be
+responsible for correctly interpreting (inverting) the GPIO signal at the GPIO
+controller.
2) gpio-controller nodes
------------------------
-Every GPIO controller node must both an empty "gpio-controller"
-property, and have #gpio-cells contain the size of the gpio-specifier.
+Every GPIO controller node must contain both an empty "gpio-controller"
+property, and a #gpio-cells integer property, which indicates the number of

+GPIO drivers providing IRQs
+---------------------------
+It is custom that GPIO drivers (GPIO chips) are also providing interrupts,
+most often cascaded off a parent interrupt controller, and in some special
+cases the GPIO logic is melded with a SoC's primary interrupt controller.
+
+The IRQ portions of the GPIO block are implemented using an irqchip, using
+the header <linux/irq.h>. So basically such a driver is utilizing two sub-
+systems simultaneously: gpio and irq.
+
+It is legal for any IRQ consumer to request an IRQ from any irqchip no matter
+if that is a combined GPIO+IRQ driver. The basic premise is that gpio_chip and
+irq_chip are orthogonal, and offering their services independent of each
+other.
+
+gpiod_to_irq() is just a convenience function to figure out the IRQ for a
+certain GPIO line and should not be relied upon to have been called before
+the IRQ is used.
+
+So always prepare the hardware and make it ready for action in respective
+callbacks from the GPIO and irqchip APIs. Do not rely on gpiod_to_irq() having
+been called first.
+
+This orthogonality leads to ambiguities that we need to solve: if there is
+competition inside the subsystem which side is using the resource (a certain
+GPIO line and register for example) it needs to deny certain operations and
+keep track of usage inside of the gpiolib subsystem. This is why the API
+below exists.
