Cortina Systems Gemini GPIO Controller

Required properties:

- compatible : Must be "cortina,gemini-gpio"

- reg : Should contain registers location and length

- interrupts : Should contain the interrupt line for the GPIO block

- gpio-controller : marks this as a GPIO controller

- #gpio-cells : Should be 2, see gpio/gpio.txt

- interrupt-controller : marks this as an interrupt controller

- #interrupt-cells : a standard two-cell interrupt flag, see

  interrupt-controller/interrupts.txt

Example:

gpio@4d000000 {

	compatible = "cortina,gemini-gpio";

	reg = <0x4d000000 0x100>;

	interrupts = <22 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;

	gpio-controller;

	#gpio-cells = <2>;

	interrupt-controller;

	#interrupt-cells = <2>;

};

Optional properties:

 - reset-gpios: GPIO specification for the RESET input. This is an

		active low signal to the PCA953x.

Example:

Each GPIO hog definition is represented as a child node of the GPIO controller.

Required properties:

- gpio-hog:   A property specifying that this child node represent a GPIO hog.

- gpios:      Store the GPIO information (id, flags, ...). Shall contain the

	      number of cells specified in its parent node (GPIO controller

	      node).

- gpio-hog:   A property specifying that this child node represents a GPIO hog.

- gpios:      Store the GPIO information (id, flags, ...) for each GPIO to

	      affect. Shall contain an integer multiple of the number of cells

	      specified in its parent node (GPIO controller node).

Only one of the following properties scanned in the order shown below.

This means that when multiple properties are present they will be searched

in the order presented below and the first match is taken as the intended

gpio_chip" (see linux/gpio/driver.h for its complete definition) with members

common to each controller of that type:

 - methods to establish GPIO direction

 - methods used to access GPIO values

 - method to return the IRQ number associated to a given GPIO

 - methods to establish GPIO line direction

 - methods used to access GPIO line values

 - method to set electrical configuration to a a given GPIO line

 - method to return the IRQ number associated to a given GPIO line

 - flag saying whether calls to its methods may sleep

 - optional line names array to identify lines

 - optional debugfs dump method (showing extra state like pullup config)

 - optional base number (will be automatically assigned if omitted)

 - label for diagnostics and GPIOs mapping using platform data

 - optional label for diagnostics and GPIO chip mapping using platform data

The code implementing a gpio_chip should support multiple instances of the

controller, possibly using the driver model. That code will configure each

gpio_chip and issue gpiochip_add(). Removing a GPIO controller should be rare;

use gpiochip_remove() when it is unavoidable.

Often a gpio_chip is part of an instance-specific structure with states not

exposed by the GPIO interfaces, such as addressing, power management, and more.

Chips such as codecs will have complex non-GPIO state.

Chips such as audio codecs will have complex non-GPIO states.

Any debugfs dump method should normally ignore signals which haven't been

requested as GPIOs. They can use gpiochip_is_requested(), which returns either

NULL or the label associated with that GPIO when it was requested.

RT_FULL: GPIO driver should not use spinlock_t or any sleepable APIs

RT_FULL: the GPIO driver should not use spinlock_t or any sleepable APIs

(like PM runtime) in its gpio_chip implementation (.get/.set and direction

control callbacks) if it is expected to call GPIO APIs from atomic context

on -RT (inside hard IRQ handlers and similar contexts). Normally this should

not be required.

GPIO electrical configuration

-----------------------------

GPIOs can be configured for several electrical modes of operation by using the

.set_config() callback. Currently this API supports setting debouncing and

single-ended modes (open drain/open source). These settings are described

below.

The .set_config() callback uses the same enumerators and configuration

semantics as the generic pin control drivers. This is not a coincidence: it is

possible to assign the .set_config() to the function gpiochip_generic_config()

which will result in pinctrl_gpio_set_config() being called and eventually

ending up in the pin control back-end "behind" the GPIO controller, usually

closer to the actual pins. This way the pin controller can manage the below

listed GPIO configurations.

GPIOs with debounce support

---------------------------

Debouncing is a configuration set to a pin indicating that it is connected to

a mechanical switch or button, or similar that may bounce. Bouncing means the

line is pulled high/low quickly at very short intervals for mechanical

reasons. This can result in the value being unstable or irqs fireing repeatedly

unless the line is debounced.

Debouncing in practice involves setting up a timer when something happens on

the line, wait a little while and then sample the line again, so see if it

still has the same value (low or high). This could also be repeated by a clever

state machine, waiting for a line to become stable. In either case, it sets

a certain number of milliseconds for debouncing, or just "on/off" if that time

is not configurable.
