small brainstorm for the problem I have

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

 



I have a device that uses SPI bitbang (which is physically represented by bunch
of GPIOs). I want to have a driver of that device to use SPI GPIO driver, but...

1) SPI GPIO has an established DT schema and hardcoded GPIO line names in the
driver.

2) The firmware for the device uses already some names for the GPIO lines that
not compatible with SPI GPIO schema.

So, what would be the best approach here?

I was thinking about the following:
1) Use GPIO aggregator to fake the chip that will provide necessary names.

2) Hack the GPIO library to add a quirk for this specific device to translate
the line names.

3) ...your variant...
