In Rockchip RK3328, the output only GPIO_MUTE pin, originally for codec mute control, can also be used for general purpose. It is manipulated by
the GRF_SOC_CON10 register.

Changes in v3:
- Change from general gpio-syscon to specific rk3328-gpio-mute

Changes in v2:
- Rename gpio_syscon10 to gpio_mute in doc

Changes in v1:
- Refactured for general gpio-syscon usage for Rockchip SoCs.
- Add doc rockchip,gpio-syscon.txt

+Rockchip RK3328 GPIO controller dedicated for the GPIO_MUTE pin.
+
+In Rockchip RK3328, the output only GPIO_MUTE pin, originally for codec
mute
+control, can also be used for general purpose. It is manipulated by the
+GRF_SOC_CON10 register.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should contain "rockchip,rk3328-gpio-mute".
+- gpio-controller: Marks the device node as a gpio controller. +- #gpio-cells: Should be 2. The first cell is the pin number and
+  the second cell is used to specify the gpio polarity:
+    0 = Active high,
+    1 = Active low.
+
+Example:
+
+       grf: syscon@ff100000 {
+               compatible = "rockchip,rk3328-grf", "syscon",
"simple-mfd";
+
+               gpio_mute: gpio-mute {

Node names should be generic:

gpio {

This also means you can't add another GPIO node in the future and you'll have to live with "rockchip,rk3328-gpio-mute" covering more
than 1 GPIO if you do need to add more GPIOs.


As the first line describes, this GPIO controller is dedicated for the
GPIO_MUTE pin.
There's only one GPIO pin in the GRF_SOC_CON10 register. Therefore the
gpio_mute
name is proper IMHO.

It's how many GPIOs in the GRF, not this register. What I'm saying is when you come along later to add another GPIO in the GRF, you had better just add it to this same node. I'm not going to accept another GPIO controller node within the GRF. You have the cells to support
more than 1, so it would only be a driver change. The compatible
string would then not be ideally named at that point. But compatible strings are just unique identifiers, so it doesn't really matter what
the string is.


I'll try my best to introduce the situation here. The GRF, GPIO0~GPIO3 are register blocks in the RK3328 Soc. The GPIO0~GPIO3 contain registers
for GPIO operations like reading/writing data, setting direction,
interruption etc, which corresponds to the GPIO banks (gpio0~gpio3)
defined in rk3328.dtsi:

	pinctrl: pinctrl {
		compatible = "rockchip,rk3328-pinctrl";
		rockchip,grf = <&grf>;
		#address-cells = <2>;
		#size-cells = <2>;
		ranges;

		gpio0: gpio0@ff210000 {
			compatible = "rockchip,gpio-bank";
			reg = <0x0 0xff210000 0x0 0x100>;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 51 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
			clocks = <&cru PCLK_GPIO0>;

			gpio-controller;
			#gpio-cells = <2>;

			interrupt-controller;
			#interrupt-cells = <2>;
		};

		gpio1: gpio1@ff220000 {
               //...
		};

		gpio2: gpio2@ff230000 {
               //...
		};

		gpio3: gpio3@ff240000 {
               //...
		};
        }

However, these general GPIO pins has multiplexed functions and their pull up/down and driving strength can also be configured. These settings are manipulated by the GRF registers in pinctrl driver. Quoted from the
TRM, the GRF has the following function:

- IOMUX control
- Control the state of GPIO in power-down mode
- GPIO PAD pull down and pull up control
- Used for common system control
- Used to record the system state

Therefore the functions of the GRF are messy and scattered in different nodes. The so-called GPIO_MUTE does not belong to GPIO0~GPIO3. It is
manipulated by the GRF_SOC_CON10 register in the GRF block.

I'm being told both "this is the only GPIO" and "the GRF has too many different functions for us to tell you what they all are". So which is
it?

Rob

They are both true, but lack of context. See the above description.

Thanks,
Levin
