Hi all, Please give feedback on these patches which extends the PWM framework in order to support multiple PWM modes of operations. This series is a rework of [1]. The current patch series add the following PWM modes: - PWM mode normal - PWM mode complementary - PWM mode push-pull Normal mode - for PWM chips with one output per PWM channel; output waveforms looks like this: __ __ __ __ PWM __| |__| |__| |__| |__ <--T--> Complementary mode - for PWM chips with more than one output per PWM channel; output waveforms for a PWM controller with 2 outputs per PWM channel may looks line this: __ __ __ __ PWMH1 __| |__| |__| |__| |__ __ __ __ __ __ PWML1 |__| |__| |__| |__| <--T--> Where T is the signal period. Push-pull mode - for PWM chips with mode than one output per PWM channel; output waveform for a PWM controller with 2 outputs per PWM channel, in push-pull mode, with normal polarity looks like this: __ __ PWMH __| |________| |________ __ __ PWML ________| |________| |__ <--T--> If polarity is inversed: __ ________ ________ PWMH |__| |__| ________ ________ __ PWML |__| |__| <--T--> Where T is the signal period. Every PWM device from a PWM chip could be configured in the modes registered by PWM chip. For this, the PWM chip structure contains a field called caps which keeps the PWM modes. At probe time the PWM chip registers the supported modes and PWM devices could switch to the modes registered by PWM chips. For the moment, in my opinion, it is not neccessary to add a new hook in pwm_ops to go through the driver to check the capabilities of a single PWM device (as was proposed in [1]). I choosed to consider that a PWM controller with 2 outputs to also be capable to work in normal mode, since the outputs could be connected independently to other devices. If the drivers doesn't register any PWM capabilities the default capabilities will be used (currently, these includes PWM mode normal). These PWM mode could be configured via sysfs, or pwm_set_mode() + pwm_apply_state() (for driver clients), or via DT. In sysfs, user could check the PWM controller capabilities by reading modes file of PWM chip: root@sama5d2-xplained:/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0# ls -l total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 7 03:18 device -> ../../../f802c000.pwm --w------- 1 root root 4096 Oct 7 03:18 export -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 7 03:18 modes -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 7 03:18 npwm drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Oct 7 03:18 power lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 7 03:18 subsystem -> ../../../../../../../class/pwm -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Oct 7 01:20 uevent --w------- 1 root root 4096 Oct 7 03:18 unexport root@sama5d2-xplained:/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0# cat modes normal complementary push-pull And the current capability of the PWM device could be checked as follows: root@sama5d2-xplained:/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1# ls -l -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 capture -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 duty_cycle -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 enable -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 mode -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 period -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:55 polarity drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Feb 9 10:54 power -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Feb 9 10:54 uevent root@sama5d2-xplained:/sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm1# cat mode normal The PWM push-pull mode could be usefull in applications like half bridge converters. This series also add support for PWM modes on atmel SAMA5D2 SoC. Thank you, Claudiu Beznea [1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg580275.html Changes in v2: - remove of_xlate and of_pwm_n_cells and use generic functions to pharse DT inputs; this is done in patches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 of this series; this will make easy the addition of PWM mode support from DT - add PWM mode normal - register PWM modes as capabilities of PWM chips at driver probe and, in case driver doesn't provide these capabilities use default ones - change the way PWM mode is pharsed via DT by using a new input for pwms binding property Claudiu Beznea (16): drivers: pwm: core: use a single of xlate function pwm: pxa: update documentation regarding pwm-cells pwm: cros-ec: update documentation regarding pwm-cells pwm: clps711x: update documentation regarding pwm-cells ARM: dts: clps711x: update pwm-cells ARM: dts: pxa: update pwm-cells arm64: dts: rockchip: update pwm-cells drivers: pwm: core: extend PWM framework with PWM modes drivers: pwm: core: add PWM mode to pwm_config() pwm: Add PWM modes pwm: add documentation for PWM modes pwm: atmel: add pwm capabilities drivers: pwm: core: add push-pull mode support pwm: add push-pull mode pwm: add documentation for pwm push-pull mode pwm: atmel: add push-pull mode support .../bindings/pwm/cirrus,clps711x-pwm.txt | 4 +- .../devicetree/bindings/pwm/google,cros-ec-pwm.txt | 4 +- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pwm/pwm.txt | 23 ++++- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pwm/pxa-pwm.txt | 6 +- Documentation/pwm.txt | 47 ++++++++- arch/arm/boot/dts/ep7209.dtsi | 2 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/pxa25x.dtsi | 4 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/pxa27x.dtsi | 8 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/pxa3xx.dtsi | 8 +- arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/mach-rx1950.c | 5 +- arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399-gru-kevin.dts | 2 +- arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399-gru.dtsi | 2 +- drivers/bus/ts-nbus.c | 2 +- drivers/clk/clk-pwm.c | 3 +- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c | 8 +- drivers/hwmon/pwm-fan.c | 2 +- drivers/input/misc/max77693-haptic.c | 2 +- drivers/input/misc/max8997_haptic.c | 3 +- drivers/leds/leds-pwm.c | 2 +- drivers/media/rc/ir-rx51.c | 2 +- drivers/media/rc/pwm-ir-tx.c | 2 +- drivers/pwm/core.c | 112 ++++++++++++++------- drivers/pwm/pwm-atmel-hlcdc.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-atmel-tcb.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-atmel.c | 100 ++++++++++++------ drivers/pwm/pwm-bcm-iproc.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-bcm-kona.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-bcm2835.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-berlin.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-clps711x.c | 11 -- drivers/pwm/pwm-cros-ec.c | 20 ---- drivers/pwm/pwm-fsl-ftm.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-hibvt.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-imx.c | 8 -- drivers/pwm/pwm-lpc18xx-sct.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-meson.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-pxa.c | 19 ---- drivers/pwm/pwm-renesas-tpu.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-rockchip.c | 5 - drivers/pwm/pwm-samsung.c | 3 - drivers/pwm/pwm-sun4i.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-tiecap.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-tiehrpwm.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-vt8500.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/pwm-zx.c | 2 - drivers/pwm/sysfs.c | 64 ++++++++++++ drivers/video/backlight/lm3630a_bl.c | 2 +- drivers/video/backlight/lp855x_bl.c | 2 +- drivers/video/backlight/lp8788_bl.c | 2 +- drivers/video/backlight/pwm_bl.c | 4 +- drivers/video/fbdev/ssd1307fb.c | 3 +- include/dt-bindings/pwm/pwm.h | 4 + include/linux/pwm.h | 90 +++++++++++++++-- 54 files changed, 402 insertions(+), 222 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 -- 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
