Maybe you can point me to a better approach? Move the whole driver to a pin control variant: Documentation/pinctrl.txt We just did this with the sx150x, see commit 9e80f9064e73f9f82679884ddf8b03ac3606cf4a "pinctrl: Add SX150X GPIO Extender Pinctrl Driver" in linux-next. However that is a heavy operation. And a lot of upfront work. If it is really *JUST* this one extra parameter, it's not a super-big deal, but I do not like to create a plethora of custom attributes to hack around stuff we already have generic solutions for. And if it makes sense for clients to specify the pullup, it should definately be done on the consumer side rather than on the producer side as these approaches do. For that approach see commit 69d301fdd19635a39cb2b78e53fdd625b7a27924 "gpio: add DT bindings for existing consumer flags" commit c663e5f56737757db4d0b317c510ab505f93cecb "gpio: support native single-ended hardware drivers" Yours, Linus Walleij -- 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
