Affects all drivers. Some minor precursor patches. Major parts: * Bring all the sysfs attribute setup into the counter core rather than leaving it to individual drivers. Docs updates accompany these changes. * Move various definitions to a uapi header as now needed from userspace. * Add the chardev interface + extensive documentation and example tool * Add new ABI needed to identify indexes needed for chrdev interface * Implement new interface for the 104-quad-8 * Follow up deals with wrong path for documentation build * Various trivial cleanups and missing feature additions related to this series ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Cameron (1): counter: microchip-tcb-capture: Tidy up a false kernel-doc /** marking. Randy Dunlap (1): counter: fix docum. build problems after filename change William Breathitt Gray (15): counter: stm32-lptimer-cnt: Provide defines for clock polarities counter: stm32-timer-cnt: Provide defines for slave mode selection counter: Internalize sysfs interface code counter: Update counter.h comments to reflect sysfs internalization docs: counter: Update to reflect sysfs internalization counter: Move counter enums to uapi header counter: Add character device interface docs: counter: Document character device interface tools/counter: Create Counter tools counter: Implement signalZ_action_component_id sysfs attribute counter: Implement *_component_id sysfs attributes counter: Implement events_queue_size sysfs attribute counter: 104-quad-8: Replace mutex with spinlock counter: 104-quad-8: Add IRQ support for the ACCES 104-QUAD-8 docs: counter: Include counter-chrdev kernel-doc to generic-counter.rst Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-counter | 38 +- Documentation/driver-api/generic-counter.rst | 363 ++++- Documentation/userspace-api/ioctl/ioctl-number.rst | 1 + MAINTAINERS | 3 +- drivers/counter/104-quad-8.c | 699 +++++---- drivers/counter/Kconfig | 6 +- drivers/counter/Makefile | 1 + drivers/counter/counter-chrdev.c | 578 ++++++++ drivers/counter/counter-chrdev.h | 14 + drivers/counter/counter-core.c | 191 +++ drivers/counter/counter-sysfs.c | 960 +++++++++++++ drivers/counter/counter-sysfs.h | 13 + drivers/counter/counter.c | 1496 -------------------- drivers/counter/ftm-quaddec.c | 60 +- drivers/counter/intel-qep.c | 146 +- drivers/counter/interrupt-cnt.c | 62 +- drivers/counter/microchip-tcb-capture.c | 93 +- drivers/counter/stm32-lptimer-cnt.c | 212 ++- drivers/counter/stm32-timer-cnt.c | 195 +-- drivers/counter/ti-eqep.c | 180 +-- include/linux/counter.h | 720 +++++----- include/linux/counter_enum.h | 45 - include/linux/mfd/stm32-lptimer.h | 5 + include/linux/mfd/stm32-timers.h | 4 + include/uapi/linux/counter.h | 154 ++ tools/Makefile | 13 +- tools/counter/Build | 1 + tools/counter/Makefile | 53 + tools/counter/counter_example.c | 92 ++ 29 files changed, 3604 insertions(+), 2794 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter-chrdev.c create mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter-chrdev.h create mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter-core.c create mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter-sysfs.c create mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter-sysfs.h delete mode 100644 drivers/counter/counter.c delete mode 100644 include/linux/counter_enum.h create mode 100644 include/uapi/linux/counter.h create mode 100644 tools/counter/Build create mode 100644 tools/counter/Makefile create mode 100644 tools/counter/counter_example.c
