The IO-window at 0x98100000 contains registers that are read to determine PLL and APB clock frequencies. Sorry I don't know more than that. This is part of a pending patch adding the clock driver: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-October/203494.html Arnd made a similar comment suggesting syscon back when MMC mapped the same register: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/linux.kernel/eeS7vhMWMAc/zNYhzyKilh8J I think I prefer to have this in the clock driver opposed to using syscon. The one downside I can see, individual control of the pins would be lost? Does it make sense to enable all pins once? this is acceptable for at least UC-7112-LX, it doesn't need to disable/enable pins beyond the initial clk_enable(). I say the above because I currently have nothing that requires individual pin control. However, I removed one line from MMC that turned out to be unnecessary. That line directly access the "PMU" register disabling pins 10-17 with the following comment: " /* change I/O multiplexing to SD, so the GPIO 17-10 will be fail */ moxart_gpio_mp_clear(0xff << 10); " http://code.google.com/p/linux-2-6-9-moxart/source/browse/drivers/mmc/host/moxasd.c#619 >> I don't think gpio_poweroff driver is right for this hardware >> because the pin is not connected to anything that can do reset. >> The old 2.6.9 kernel driver uses timer poll with eventual call >> to userspace. >> >> To test that it works, I added gpio_poweroff anyway, modified >> with gpio_export() the pin can then be seen switching between >> 0 and 1 (on "cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio25/value"). > > Hmmmm not quite following this... I'll try to elaborate. What happens in gpio_poweroff driver does not look like something that can reset the hardware. Reset on UC-7112-LX is implemented using the same register as the watchdog, in platform code hooked up to arm_pm_restart. The old sources "solved" this by polling the reset pin with eventual call_usermodehelper (/sbin/reboot): http://code.google.com/p/linux-2-6-9-moxart/source/browse/drivers/char/moxa_watchdog.c#174 What was previously in a kernel driver, would now be solved in userspace? gpio_export() allowed me to verify the pin number, pressing reset toggles the value. Adding the gpio-leds driver, that pin was automatically exported to sysfs, that got me thinking: How do I export the reset button to sysfs? Should gpio_export() be added to platform code? from drivers/power/reset/gpio-poweroff.c: static void gpio_poweroff_do_poweroff(void) { BUG_ON(!gpio_is_valid(gpio_num)); /* drive it active, also inactive->active edge */ gpio_direction_output(gpio_num, !gpio_active_low); mdelay(100); /* drive inactive, also active->inactive edge */ gpio_set_value(gpio_num, gpio_active_low); mdelay(100); /* drive it active, also inactive->active edge */ gpio_set_value(gpio_num, !gpio_active_low); /* give it some time */ mdelay(3000); WARN_ON(1); } Regards, Jonas -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
