This driver supports the GPIO controller found in LSI ZEVIO SoCs.
It has been successfully tested on a TI nspire CX calculator.

Signed-off-by: Fabian Vogt <fabian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Fabian, sorry for taking so long for getting around to review this.
No problem :)

I want an ACK from one of the DT bindings maintainers for this
portion of the driver ideally. (It looks all right to me.)
Any ideas which mail addresses I should add to CC:?

+config GPIO_ZEVIO
+       bool "LSI ZEVIO SoC memory mapped GPIOs"
+       depends on ARCH_NSPIRE

Can't this appear in some other SoC?
The problem is, no documents about this SoC are available at all.
Everything we know about this chip has been found out by disassembling the
nspire software (nucleus PLUS), so I have no idea, but probably not.
Also, it can't be tested during bootup, as the only platform we can test it on
boots from an internal read-only flash, which loads boot2,
which itself is exploitable to start linux.
The entire hardware has already been initialized before booting linux.

It doesn't seem very arch-dependent in itself.

I would rather have this depend on OF so any device-tree enabled
SoC may use it, plus we get compile coverage by allmodconfig.

Very ambitious. Impressive!
Not my work, but indeed, it's very impressive!
(Except for the newer ("complicated") touchpad interface which was indeed an I2C controller)

What is a sticky interrupt? Do you mean it is a level IRQ?
Then it's edge triggered if zero and level triggered if "sticky"
is set to 1, right?
It's how the GPIO controller signals the VIC.
On sticky it keeps the IRQ high until it has been handled (W to 0x4),
if not sticky, it sets the IRQ line at the same state as the GPIO pin is.
If GPIO high => IRQ high, if GPIO gets low again => IRQ low, which is not VERY useful..

Use just u16 please. uint16_t is some portable C type.

Please replace uint16_t with u16 everywhere.
It's used VERY often and I couldn't find any coding style document which prefers u16..

+

Use this construct:
return !!(val & ZEVIO_GPIO_BIT(pin));
Ok.

I usually do this:

#include <linux/bitops.h>

val |= BIT(ZEVIO_GPIO_BIT(pin));
Oh, it seems I have overseen that..

Dito, sort of...

Same idea as above.

And here too.

+       writew(val, ZEVIO_GPIO(controller, pin, OUTPUT));
+       val = readw(ZEVIO_GPIO(controller, pin, DIRECTION));
+       val &= ~(1<<ZEVIO_GPIO_BIT(pin));
+       writew(val, ZEVIO_GPIO(controller, pin, DIRECTION));

And here.

+
+       spin_unlock(&controller->lock);
+
+       return 0;
+}
+
+static int zevio_gpio_to_irq(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned pin)
+{
+       /* Not implemented due to weird lockups */

Hm. I guess this should be marked TODO: or something.

So when you figure this out you also add an irqchip.

The way this looks I was thinking it could use the
drivers/gpio/gpio-generic.c driver, but maybe not?
Would be great, but it doesn't support multiple registers (4*8 GPIOs),
so I would have to register 4 of them. Then, they had to share one interrupt, which would have to be implemented seperately (or not at all) and then it has
to be working with device tree without any extra (struct platform_)data.
I prefer two bitops (pin&7 and pin>>3), which are present anyways (for IRQs)
over an array of four gpio_chips.

I'll resubmit the improved version as V4 after you told me which devicetree
mail addresses I should add.

Bye,
Fabian
