Those deprecation warnings have been bugging me for some time :) While testing this series on my E850-96 board (Exynos850 based), I noticed some changes in /sys/kernel/debug/gpio file, like these: 8<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------>8 -gpiochip0: GPIOs 0-7, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa0: - gpio-7 ( |Volume Up ) in hi IRQ ACTIVE LOW +gpiochip0: GPIOs 512-519, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa0: + gpio-519 ( |Volume Up ) in hi IRQ ACTIVE LOW -gpiochip1: GPIOs 8-15, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa1: - gpio-8 ( |Volume Down ) in hi IRQ ACTIVE LOW +gpiochip1: GPIOs 520-527, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa1: + gpio-520 ( |Volume Down ) in hi IRQ ACTIVE LOW -gpiochip2: GPIOs 16-23, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa2: +gpiochip2: GPIOs 528-535, parent: platform/11850000.pinctrl, gpa2: ... 8<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------>8 So basically it looks like all line numbers were offset by 512. Can you please comment on this? Is it an intentional change, and why it's happening? Despite of that change, everything seems to be working fine. But I kinda liked the numeration starting from 0 better :) Thanks! > 2.42.0 >
