[PATCH v5 0/2] gpio: add generic gpio cascade

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

 



Hello all,

Thank you for your review comments so far. Here comes new attempt at the gpio
multiplexer driver. There are quite a lot of changes if you look at the diff
based on the v4. Functionality is still the same, though. Only renaming,
refactoring and some more documentation.

What was done
 - rename 'gpio-mux-input' -> 'gpio-cascade' in sources
 - bindings were changed to reflect the renaming
 - refactoring here and there, renaming variables
 - documentation was made simpler and more verbose

Drew: I chose to drop the Reviewed-by and Tested-by tags because, even though
mostly renaming, bindings were changed too and that affects functionality. If
you have the time, could you please have another look?

Linus: I hope the changes to the documentation were what you had in mind.

Rob: I fixed a couple of errors that you bot detected but one is due to missing
schema file (gpio-mux) and adding that is not in the scope of this work.

Andy: I dropped the Reported-by tag the bot had instructed me to add.

Thanks,
Mauri

    -+  A generic GPIO based input multiplexer
    ++  A generic GPIO cascade
     +
    -+  This driver uses a mux-controller to drive the multiplexer and has a single
    -+  output pin for reading the inputs to the mux.
    ++  This hardware construction cascades (multiplexes) several GPIO lines from
    ++  one-to-many using a software controlled multiplexer. The most common use
    ++  case is probably reading several inputs by switching the multiplexer over
    ++  several input lines, which in practice works well since input lines has
    ++  high impedance.
     +
    -+  For GPIO consumer documentation see gpio.txt.
    ++  Constructions with multiplexed outputs are also possible using open drain
    ++  electronics.
    ++
    ++  The number of cascaded GPIO lines is limited by the technology used to
    ++  switch over the cascaded lines. There are readily available dual/triple
    ++  4-to-1 multiplexers, for example, and others.

    -    gpio: gpio-mux-input: add generic gpio input multiplexer
    +    gpio: gpio-cascade: add generic GPIO cascade
     
    -    Adds support for a generic GPIO multiplexer. To drive the multiplexer a
    -    mux-controller is needed. The output pin of the multiplexer is a GPIO
    -    pin.
    +    Adds support for a building cascades of GPIO lines. That is, it allows
    +    setups when there is one upstream line and multiple cascaded lines, out
    +    of which one can be chosen at a time. The status of the upstream line
    +    can be conveyd to the selected cascaded line or, vice versa, the status
    +    of the cascaded line can be conveyed to the upstream line.
    +
    +    A gpio-mux is being used to select, which cascaded GPIO line is being
    +    used at any given time.
    +
    +    At the moment only input direction is supported. In future it should be
    +    possible to add support for output direction, too.
