[PATCH 2/3] dt-bindings: pinctrl: Add a ngpios-ranges property

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some qcom platforms make some GPIOs or pins unavailable for use
by non-secure operating systems, and thus reading or writing the
registers for those pins will cause access control issues.
Introduce a DT property to describe the set of GPIOs that are
available for use so that higher level OSes are able to know what
pins to avoid reading/writing.

I stuck this inside msm8996, but maybe it can go somewhere more generic?
