From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx> I realized that the gpio-sim module doesn't lock the GPIOs as interrupts when they are requested from the irq_sim. This leads to users being able to change the direction of GPIOs that should remain as inputs to output. This series extends the irq_sim interface and allows users to supply callbacks that will be executed to inform users about interrupts being requested and released so that they can act accordingly. The gpio-sim is made to use this new API and lock GPIOs as interrupts when needed. Thomas: if this is fine with you, can you Ack it so that I can take it through the GPIO tree for the next merge window? Changes since v1: - drop the notifier in favor of specific callbacks Bartosz Golaszewski (2): genirq/irq_sim: add an extended irq_sim initializer gpio: sim: lock GPIOs as interrupts when they are requested drivers/gpio/gpio-sim.c | 25 ++++++++++++++++- include/linux/irq_sim.h | 17 ++++++++++++ kernel/irq/irq_sim.c | 60 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 3 files changed, 98 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- 2.43.0
