Is this "IRQ feature for I2C chips only" limitation specific to the hardware or an implementation detail of the Linux driver? I could not determine this from either the binding text nor the driver source. If it's just the status of the Linux driver, then it should not be in the binding document. If it's a limitation of the hardware, then it's appropriate in the binding but I suggest to adjust the text to avoid the next person to ask the same question. :) > --- a/drivers/gpio/Kconfig > +++ b/drivers/gpio/Kconfig > @@ -697,6 +697,7 @@ config GPIO_MCP23S08 > SPI/I2C driver for Microchip MCP23S08/MCP23S17/MCP23008/MCP23017 > I/O expanders. > This provides a GPIO interface supporting inputs and outputs. > + The I2C versions of the chips can be used as interrupt-controller. > > config GPIO_MC33880 > tristate "Freescale MC33880 high-side/low-side switch" > diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpio-mcp23s08.c b/drivers/gpio/gpio-mcp23s08.c > index 2deb0c5..1346ea6 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpio/gpio-mcp23s08.c > +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpio-mcp23s08.c > @@ -1,5 +1,10 @@ > /* > - * MCP23S08 SPI/GPIO gpio expander driver > + * MCP23S08 SPI/I2C GPIO gpio expander driver > + * > + * The inputs and outputs of the mcp23s08, mcp23s17, mcp23008 and mcp23017 are > + * supported. > + * For the I2C versions of the chips (mcp23008 and mcp23017) generation of > + * interrupts is also supported. > */ Adjust these as well to reflect whether it's hardware or software which limits the feature. virtually yours Gerhard Sittig -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr. 5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: +49-8142-66989-0 Fax: +49-8142-66989-80 Email: office@xxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
