This patch series is a work on improving usability and extensibiltiy of the
pinctrl-samsung driver. It consists of three main parts:
- moving SoC-specific data to device tree
- converting the driver to use one GPIO chip and one IRQ domain per pin bank
- introducing generic wake-up interrupt capability description
What the first part does is replacing static platform-specific data in
pinctrl-samsung driver with data dynamically parsed from device tree.
It aims at reducing the SoC-specific part of the driver and thus the
amount of modifications to driver sources when adding support for next
SoCs (like Exynos4x12).
In addition, it extends the description of SoC-specific attributes to cover all
mainlined Samsung SoCs, starting from s3c24xx and ending on latest Exynos5
series, with the exception of 4-bit banks with more than 8 pins on S3C64xx,
which will be covered by futher patch(es).
The second part attempts to simplify usage of the driver and fix several
problems of current implementation, in particular:
- Simplifies GPIO pin specification in device tree by using pin
namespace local to pin bank instead of local to pin controller, e.g.
gpios = <&gpj0 3 0>;
instead of
gpios = <&pinctrl0 115 0>;
- Simplifies GPIO interrupt specification in device tree by using
namespace local to pin bank (and equal to GPIO namespace), e.g.
interrupt-parent = <&gpj0>;
interrupts = <3 0>;
instead of
interrupt-parent = <&pinctrl0>;
interrupts = <115 0>;
- Simplifies internal GPIO pin to bank translation thanks to
correspondence of particular GPIO chips to pin banks. This allows
to remove the (costly in case of GPIO bit-banging drivers) lookup
over all banks to find the one that the pin is from.
Third part is focused on removing the static, hard-coded description of wake-up
interrupt controller and wake-up interrupt layout.
It defines a (mostly) generic (in scope of targetted SoCs) wake-up interrupt
layout specification format that allows to specify which pin banks support
wake-up interrupts and how they are handled (direct or multiplexed/chained).
See particular patches for more detailed descriptions and the last patch for
updated device tree bindings.
