  • This patch removes maxpin member in the pin control descriptor
    because we don't need this value as we enumerate a pin space
    using offset.

  • This patch modifies a offset while enumerating pins to support a
    partial pin space. If we use a pin number for enumerating pins,
    the pin space always starts with zero base. Indeed, we always check
    the pin is in the pin space. An extreme example, there is only two pins.
    One is 0. Another is 1000. We always enumerate whole offsets until 1000.
    For solving this problem, we use the offset of the pin array instead
    of the zero-based pin number.

  • If pins with blank names are registered, we assign them names on-the-fly
    on the form "PINn" where n is the pin number for that pin on the specific
    controller.

  • Pin controllers should already be instantiated as a device, so there's
    no need for the pinctrl core to create a new struct device for each
    controller.

    This allows the controller's real name to be used in the mux mapping
    table, rather than e.g. "pinctrl.0", "pinctrl.1", etc.

    This necessitates removal of the PINMUX_MAP_PRIMARY*() macros, since
    their sole purpose was to hard-code the .ctrl_dev_name field to be
    "pinctrl.0".

  • This add per-pin and per-group pin config interfaces for biasing,
    driving and other such electronic properties. The details of passed
    configurations are passed in an opaque unsigned long which may be
    dereferences to integer types, structs or lists on either side
    of the configuration interface.

    ChangeLog v1->v2:
    - Clear split of terminology: we now have pin controllers, and
    those may support two interfaces using vtables: pin
    multiplexing and pin configuration.
    - Break out pin configuration to its own C file, controllers may
    implement only config without mux, and vice versa, so keep each
    sub-functionality of pin controllers separate. Introduce
    CONFIG_PINCONF in Kconfig.
    - Implement some core logic around pin configuration in the
    pinconf.c file.
    - Remove UNKNOWN config states, these were just surplus baggage.
    - Remove FLOAT config state - HIGH_IMPEDANCE should be enough for
    everyone.
    - PIN_CONFIG_POWER_SOURCE added to handle switching the power
    supply for the pin logic between different sources
    - Explicit DISABLE config enums to turn schmitt-trigger,
    wakeup etc OFF.
    - Update documentation to reflect all the recent reasoning.
    ChangeLog v2->v3:
    - Twist API around to pass around arrays of config tuples instead
    of (param, value) pairs everywhere.
    - Explicit drive strength semantics for push/pull and similar
    drive modes, this shall be the number of drive stages vs
    nominal load impedance, which should match the actual
    electronics used in push/pull CMOS or TTY totempoles.
    - Drop load capacitance configuration - I probably don't know
    what I'm doing here so leave it out.
    - Drop PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_SCHMITT_OFF, instead the argument zero to
    PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_SCHMITT turns schmitt trigger off.
    - Drop PIN_CONFIG_NORMAL_POWER_MODE and have a well defined
    argument to PIN_CONFIG_LOW_POWER_MODE to get out of it instead.
    - Drop PIN_CONFIG_WAKEUP_ENABLE/DISABLE and just use
    PIN_CONFIG_WAKEUP with defined value zero to turn wakeup off.
    - Add PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_DEBOUNCE for configuring debounce time
    on input lines.
    - Fix a bug when we tried to configure pins for pin controllers
    without pinconf support.
    - Initialized debugfs properly so it works.
    - Initialize the mutex properly and lock around config tampering
    sections.
    - Check the return value from get_initial_config() properly.
    ChangeLog v3->v4:
    - Export the pin_config_get(), pin_config_set() and
    pin_config_group() functions.
    - Drop the entire concept of just getting initial config and
    keeping track of pin states internally, instead ask the pins
    what state they are in. Previous idea was plain wrong, if the
    device cannot keep track of its state, the driver should do
    it.
    - Drop the generic configuration layout, it seems this impose
    too much restriction on some pin controllers, so let them do
    things the way they want and split off support for generic
    config as an optional add-on.
    ChangeLog v4->v5:
    - Introduce two symmetric driver calls for group configuration,
    .pin_config_group_[get|set] and corresponding external calls.
    - Remove generic semantic meanings of return values from config
    calls, these belong in the generic config patch. Just pass the
    return value through instead.
    - Add a debugfs entry "pinconf-groups" to read status from group
    configuration only, also slam in a per-group debug callback in
    the pinconf_ops so custom drivers can display something
    meaningful for their pins.
    - Fix some dangling newline.
    - Drop dangling #else clause.
    - Update documentation to match the above.
    ChangeLog v5->v6:
    - Change to using a pin name as parameter for the
    [get|set]_config() functions, as suggested by Stephen Warren.
    This is more natural as names will be what a developer has
    access to in written documentation etc.
    ChangeLog v6->v7:
    - Refactor out by-pin and by-name get/set functions, only expose
    the by-name functions externally, expose the by-pin functions
    internally.
    - Show supported pin control functionality in the debugfs
    pinctrl-devices file.

  • A pin controller's names array is no longer marked __refdata. Hence, we
    can avoid copying a pin's name into the descriptor when registering it.
    Instead, just point at the string supplied in the pin array.

    This both simplifies and speeds up pin controller initialization, but
    also removes the hard-coded maximum pin name length.

  • get_group_pins() "returns" a pointer to an array of const objects, through
    a pointer parameter. Fix the prototype so what's pointed at by the returned
    pointer is const, rather than the function parameter being const.

    This also allows the removal of a cast in each of the two current pinmux
    drivers.

  • This creates a subsystem for handling of pin control devices.
    These are devices that control different aspects of package
    pins.

    Currently it handles pinmuxing, i.e. assigning electronic
    functions to groups of pins on primarily PGA and BGA type of
    chip packages which are common in embedded systems.

    The plan is to also handle other I/O pin control aspects
    such as biasing, driving, input properties such as
    schmitt-triggering, load capacitance etc within this
    subsystem, to remove a lot of ARM arch code as well as
    feature-creepy GPIO drivers which are implementing the same
    thing over and over again.

    This is being done to depopulate the arch/arm/* directory
    of such custom drivers and try to abstract the infrastructure
    they all need. See the Documentation/pinctrl.txt file that is
    part of this patch for more details.

    ChangeLog v1->v2:

    - Various minor fixes from Joe's and Stephens review comments
    - Added a pinmux_config() that can invoke custom configuration
    with arbitrary data passed in or out to/from the pinmux driver

    ChangeLog v2->v3:

    - Renamed subsystem folder to "pinctrl" since we will likely
    want to keep other pin control such as biasing in this
    subsystem too, so let us keep to something generic even though
    we're mainly doing pinmux now.
    - As a consequence, register pins as an abstract entity separate
    from the pinmux. The muxing functions will claim pins out of the
    pin pool and make sure they do not collide. Pins can now be
    named by the pinctrl core.
    - Converted the pin lookup from a static array into a radix tree,
    I agreed with Grant Likely to try to avoid any static allocation
    (which is crap for device tree stuff) so I just rewrote this
    to be dynamic, just like irq number descriptors. The
    platform-wide definition of number of pins goes away - this is
    now just the sum total of the pins registered to the subsystem.
    - Make sure mappings with only a function name and no device
    works properly.

    ChangeLog v3->v4:

    - Define a number space per controller instead of globally,
    Stephen and Grant requested the same thing so now maps need to
    define target controller, and the radix tree of pin descriptors
    is a property on each pin controller device.
    - Add a compulsory pinctrl device entry to the pinctrl mapping
    table. This must match the pinctrl device, like "pinctrl.0"
    - Split the file core.c in two: core.c and pinmux.c where the
    latter carry all pinmux stuff, the core is for generic pin
    control, and use local headers to access functionality between
    files. It is now possible to implement a "blank" pin controller
    without pinmux capabilities. This split will make new additions
    like pindrive.c, pinbias.c etc possible for combined drivers
    and chunks of functionality which is a GoodThing(TM).
    - Rewrite the interaction with the GPIO subsystem - the pin
    controller descriptor now handles this by defining an offset
    into the GPIO numberspace for its handled pin range. This is
    used to look up the apropriate pin controller for a GPIO pin.
    Then that specific GPIO range is matched 1-1 for the target
    controller instance.
    - Fixed a number of review comments from Joe Perches.
    - Broke out a header file pinctrl.h for the core pin handling
    stuff that will be reused by other stuff than pinmux.
    - Fixed some erroneous EXPORT() stuff.
    - Remove mispatched U300 Kconfig and Makefile entries
    - Fixed a number of review comments from Stephen Warren, not all
    of them - still WIP. But I think the new mapping that will
    specify which function goes to which pin mux controller address
    50% of your concerns (else beat me up).

    ChangeLog v4->v5:

    - Defined a "position" for each function, so the pin controller now
    tracks a function in a certain position, and the pinmux maps define
    what position you want the function in. (Feedback from Stephen
    Warren and Sascha Hauer).
    - Since we now need to request a combined function+position from
    the machine mapping table that connect mux settings to drivers,
    it was extended with a position field and a name field. The
    name field is now used if you e.g. need to switch between two
    mux map settings at runtime.
    - Switched from a class device to using struct bus_type for this
    subsystem. Verified sysfs functionality: seems to work fine.
    (Feedback from Arnd Bergmann and Greg Kroah-Hartman)
    - Define a per pincontroller list of GPIO ranges from the GPIO
    pin space that can be handled by the pin controller. These can
    be added one by one at runtime. (Feedback from Barry Song)
    - Expanded documentation of regulator_[get|enable|disable|put]
    semantics.
    - Fixed a number of review comments from Barry Song. (Thanks!)

    ChangeLog v5->v6:

    - Create an abstract pin group concept that can sort pins into
    named and enumerated groups no matter what the use of these
    groups may be, one possible usecase is a group of pins being
    muxed in or so. The intention is however to also use these
    groups for other pin control activities.
    - Make it compulsory for pinmux functions to associate with
    at least one group, so the abstract pin group concept is used
    to define the groups of pins affected by a pinmux function.
    The pinmux driver interface has been altered so as to enforce
    a function to list applicable groups per function.
    - Provide an optional .group entry in the pinmux machine map
    so the map can select beteween different available groups
    to be used with a certain function.
    - Consequent changes all over the place so that e.g. debugfs
    present reasonable information about the world.
    - Drop the per-pin mux (*config) function in the pinmux_ops
    struct - I was afraid that this would start to be used for
    things totally unrelated to muxing, we can introduce that to
    the generic struct pinctrl_ops if needed. I want to keep
    muxing orthogonal to other pin control subjects and not mix
    these things up.

    ChangeLog v6->v7:

    - Make it possible to have several map entries matching the
    same device, pin controller and function, but using
    a different group, and alter the semantics so that
    pinmux_get() will pick all matching map entries, and
    store the associated groups in a list. The list will
    then be iterated over at pinmux_enable()/pinmux_disable()
    and corresponding driver functions called for each
    defined group. Notice that you're only allowed to map
    multiple *groups* to the same
    { device, pin controller, function } triplet, attempts
    to map the same device to multiple pin controllers will
    for example fail. This is hopefully the crucial feature
    requested by Stephen Warren.
    - Add a pinmux hogging field to the pinmux mapping entries,
    and enable the pinmux core to hog pinmux map entries.
    This currently only works for pinmuxes without assigned
    devices as it looks now, but with device trees we can
    look up the corresponding struct device * entries when
    we register the pinmux driver, and have it hog each
    pinmux map in turn, for a simple approach to
    non-dynamic pin muxing. This addresses an issue from
    Grant Likely that the machine should take care of as
    much of the pinmux setup as possible, not the devices.
    By supplying a list of hogs, it can now instruct the
    core to take care of any static mappings.
    - Switch pinmux group retrieveal function to grab an
    array of strings representing the groups rather than an
    array of unsigned and rewrite accordingly.
    - Alter debugfs to show the grouplist handled by each
    pinmux. Also add a list of hogs.
    - Dynamically allocate a struct pinmux at pinmux_get() and
    free it at pinmux_put(), then add these to the global
    list of pinmuxes active as we go along.
    - Go over the list of pinmux maps at pinmux_get() time
    and repeatedly apply matches.
    - Retrieve applicable groups per function from the driver
    as a string array rather than a unsigned array, then
    lookup the enumerators.
    - Make the device to pinmux map a singleton - only allow the
    mapping table to be registered once and even tag the
    registration function with __init so it surely won't be
    abused.
    - Create a separate debugfs file to view the pinmux map at
    runtime.
    - Introduce a spin lock to the pin descriptor struct, lock it
    when modifying pin status entries. Reported by Stijn Devriendt.
    - Fix up the documentation after review from Stephen Warren.
    - Let the GPIO ranges give names as const char * instead of some
    fixed-length string.
    - add a function to unregister GPIO ranges to mirror the
    registration function.
    - Privatized the struct pinctrl_device and removed it from the
    API, the drivers do not need to know
    the members of this struct. It is now in the local header
    "core.h".
    - Rename the concept of "anonymous" mux maps to "system" muxes
    and add convenience macros and documentation.

    ChangeLog v7->v8:

    - Delete the leftover pinmux_config() function from the
    header.
    - Fix a race condition found by Stijn Devriendt in pin_request()

    ChangeLog v8->v9:

    - Drop the bus_type and the sysfs attributes and all, we're not on
    the clear about how this should be used for e.g. userspace
    interfaces so let us save this for the future.
    - Use the right name in MAINTAINERS, PIN CONTROL rather than
    PINMUX
    - Don't kfree() the device state holder, let the .remove() callback
    handle this.
    - Fix up numerous kerneldoc headers to have one line for the function
    description and more verbose documentation below the parameters

    ChangeLog v9->v10:
    - pinctrl: EXPORT_SYMBOL needs export.h, folded in a patch
    from Steven Rothwell
    - fix pinctrl_register error handling, folded in a patch from
    Axel Lin
    - Various fixes to documentation text so that it's consistent.
    - Removed pointless comment from drivers/Kconfig
    - Removed dependency on SYSFS since we removed the bus in
    v9.
    - Renamed hopelessly abbreviated pctldev_* functions to the
    more verbose pinctrl_dev_*
    - Drop mutex properly when looking up GPIO ranges
    - Return NULL instead of ERR_PTR() errors on registration of
    pin controllers, using cast pointers is fragile. We can
    live without the detailed error codes for sure.
