Could you explain why ARRAY_SIZE(mctrl_gpios_desc) seems better than
UART_GPIO_MAX ?

It's because I like when it's simple :).
Use case:
Your USART controller handles CTS/RTS, and you add DTR/DSR as gpios.
In get_mctrl() callback, with current implementation, you'll have
something like this: (cf atmel_get_mctrl() for a real life example)
{
unsigned int mctrl;
mctrl = usart_controller_get_mctrl(); /* driver specific */
return mctrl_gpio_get(gpios, &mctrl);
}
If I use as you suggest mctrl_gpio_get(struct mctrl_gpios *gpios), we'll
have:
{
unsigned int usart_mctrl;
unsigned int gpio_mctrl;
int i;
usart_mctrl = usart_controller_get_mctrl();
gpio_mctrl = mctrl_gpio_get(gpios);
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_CTS]) {
if (gpio_mctrl & TIOCM_CTS)
usart_mctrl |= TIOCM_CTS;
else
usart_mctrl &= ~TIOCM_CTS;
}
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_DSR]) {
if (gpio_mctrl & TIOCM_DSR)
usart_mctrl |= TIOCM_DSR;
else
usart_mctrl &= ~TIOCM_DSR;
}
etc...
}
Because when gpio_mctrl is returned, I don't know if a flag is not set
because a gpio is at 1 or because the gpio has not been requested.
In the later case, the value should not override the value retrieved by
the controller.
another solution would be to use a mask filled at startup:
init_gpios(...)
{
unsigned int driver_port_gpio_input_mask = 0;
mctrl_gpio_init(dev, &p->gpios);
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_CTS])
driver_port_gpio_mask |= TIOCM_CTS;
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_DSR])
driver_port_gpio_mask |= TIOCM_DSR;
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_DCD])
driver_port_gpio_mask |= TIOCM_DCD;
if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(gpios->gpio[UART_GPIO_RI])
driver_port_gpio_mask |= TIOCM_RI;
}
and then, in get_mctrl():
{
unsigned int mctrl;
int i;
mctrl = usart_controller_get_mctrl();
mctrl &= ~driver_port_gpio_input_mask;
mctrl |= mctrl_gpio_get(gpios);
return mctrl;
}
But both solutions seems to me more complicated than the first one.

I don't understand the benefit of dynamically allocating something that
has a fixed size...
Or maybe in the case no GPIO are used, the array is not allocated, and
I'll have to add "if (!gpios)" test in other functions. That could save
some bytes.
Could you explain a little more your idea of ""index" variable to
specify port number" ?
I'm not sure to get it.

yes, that's right.

Thanks for your review !
