Overall question: why are you not creating one device and thus
one gpio_chip per bank?

That would make this driver a lot simpler I think. Please motivate
if you want to keep it like this.

Doing that would probably also enable you to use
GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP which would be a big win.

Usually a driver shall use dev_*(dev,) and not need quirks
like this to modify prints. Why is this needed?

This file will need
#include <linux/bitops.h>

You should also include
#include <linux/gpio/driver.h>

Even if this gets in implicitly.

Rewrite this into a static inline function. Defines are ugly.

This needs some kerneldoc, and I think it looks very weird,
like you are reimplementing irqdomain or something.

Some circular dependency of one device pointing
back to the other, why? Is this necessary?

The gpio_chip has a field named .names for this,
why are you reimplementing this in your driver?

Kerneldoc this struct so I understand it, too.

I don't see why you are doing a local array of these but I
guess I will find out...

Nope. This is already in the kernel, sometimes assembly-optimized
for certain architectures.

Just use

#include <linux/bitops.h>
hweight32(mask);

I suspect these are reiplementations of generic concepts as well.
Please study <linux/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops.h>

We have all kinds of operations for finding first set bit, last set
bit, hamming weight, modifying bitmasks etc etc.

Rename parameter "gpio" to "offset", as this is not a global number
but chip-local.

Do it like this:

return !!(readl(c->output + LPC32XX_GPIO_STATE) & BIT(c->offset + offset));

> +       } else {

Just skip the else clause and un-indent. If we're here, it is input.

Just

What happens if bank.irqchip is exis and bank->input_mask is blank?

You return an unitialized ret variable.

Again: why is it not possible to use the GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP and get rid of
all the custom IRQ handling in the driver? If you do one device
per bank I think this would be possible, and maybe even if you
keep this composite driver, because gpiochip_irqchip_add() can
be called several times if referring to the same gpio_chip.

Use a switch() statement here. What if somebody tries to set a
LEVEL IRQ? You need a default: clause.

> +       irq_set_irq_type(c->irqs[d->hwirq].parent, type);

This looks weird. Why is the IRQ output line from the gpiochip
changing type just because it is starting to detect IRQs on its
GPIO lines in a different way?

Just because the gpiochip starts to do edges, it doesn't mean
it starts outputting edges all of a sudden, if i was level
IRQs before (the most common).

Please explain this or put in a big comment about how these
IRQs work on the platform.

And here the parent IRQ is requested with NONE trigger.
Why? Isn't the gpio chip coupled to that line with some
buffer logic that clearly states which IRQ type should
be used to interface the parent?

Then you don't need to reimplement this, right?

Please try to use GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP instead. Please.

If you persist on this, you need to have
.irq_request_resources()/.irq_release_resources() calling
gpiochip_lock_as_irq() and gpiochip_unlock_as_irq() to
protect the IRQ lines. GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP would again
handle this for you.

This all looks weird to me. A bit like a reimplemented irqdomain, and I
have no clue what this code is doing because this weird IRQ
scheme is not explained anywhere.

I strongly suspect that creating one device per GPIO bank would make
things simpler. Or at least one GPIO chip per bank.

The gpio_chip has a names field. If you want to do this stuff,
use that.

If every bank has its own register range it *should* be its own device
too.

Since these properties are named "gpio-*" not "nxp,*" they should
be documented in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt
before you use them. (They seem totally reasonable and useful
to me!)

Use -1 instead so you get a dynamically assigned base.

I wonder if you even need your own translation functions.
With one device per bank, certainly not.

If the node in the device tree just declares "simple-bus"
it will spawn devices for all subnodes, if they have
compatible ="" strings.

Use the platform device data to find a reference to the chip
and remove it. Get rid of this complicated array. Look
at how other drivers do it.

Just use platform_set_drvdata(pdev, foo); in probe()
then in remove():

struct my_gpio *foo = platform_get_drvdata(pdev);

gpiochip_remove(&foo->gc);

Like that.
