This RFC is a change in approach from my previous RFC patch [1]. It adds "pinnux-set" to debugfs. A function and group on the pin control device will be activated when 2 integers "<function-selector> <group-selector>" are written to the file. The debugfs write operation pinmux_set_write() handles this by calling ops->set_mux() with fsel and gsel. RFC question: should pinmux-set take function name and group name instead of the selector numbers? The following is an example on the PocketBeagle [2] which has the AM3358 SoC and binds to pinctrl-single. I added this to the device tree [3] to represent two of the pins on the expansion header as an example: P1.36 and P2.01. Both of these header pins are designed to be set to PWM mode by default [4] but can now be set back to gpio mode through pinmux-set. &am33xx_pinmux { /* use the pin controller itself as the owner device */ pinctrl-names = "default", "P1_36_gpio", "P1_36_gpio_pu", "P1_36_gpio_pd", "P1_36_gpio_input", "P1_36_pwm", "P2_01_gpio", "P2_01_gpio_pu", "P2_01_gpio_pd", "P2_01_gpio_input", "P2_01_pwm";
