The SOCs in the OCTEON family have 16 (or in some cases 20) on-chip
GPIO pins, this driver handles them all.  Configuring the pins as
interrupt sources is handled elsewhere (OCTEON's irq handling code).

This patch depends somewhat on patches in Ralf's MIPS/Linux -next tree
where we have patches that enable the Kconfig CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC and
ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB symbols.  Apart from that it is stand-alone and
is probably suitable for merging via the GPIO tree.

Really? You're using this:

+#include <asm/octeon/octeon.h>
+#include <asm/octeon/cvmx-gpio-defs.h>

I cannot find this in my tree.

Weird, I see them here:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/mips/include/asm/octeon/cvmx-gpio-defs.h
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/mips/include/asm/octeon/octeon.h

Do you not have these?


Further I ask why that second file is not part of *this* patch?
It surely seems GPIO-related, and would probably need to
go into include/linux/platform_data/gpio-octeon.h or something
rather than such platform dirs.

(...)
+config GPIO_OCTEON

depend on OF as well right? Or does the CAVIUM_OCTEON_SOC already
imply that?

We already have 'select USE_OF', so I think adding OF here would be redundant.

Maybe the passed variable shall be named "offset" here, as it is named
offset on all call sites, and it surely local for this instance?

Well it is the gpio line, so perhaps it should universally be change to "line" or "pin"

Put this 0x100 in the #defines above with the name something like
STRIDE.

But it is not a 'STRIDE', it is a discontinuity compensation and used in exactly one place.

OMG everything is 64 bit. Well has to come to this I guess.

Not everything. This is custom logic in an SoC with 64-bit wide internal address buses, what would you suggest?

+{
+       struct octeon_gpio *gpio = container_of(chip, struct octeon_gpio, chip);
+       u64 mask = 1ull << offset;

And now BIT(offset) does not work anymore because it is defined as
#define BIT(nr)                 (1UL << (nr))
OK we will have to live with this FTM I guess.

+static int octeon_gpio_dir_out(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset,
+                              int value)
+{
+       struct octeon_gpio *gpio = container_of(chip, struct octeon_gpio, chip);
+       union cvmx_gpio_bit_cfgx cfgx;
+
+       octeon_gpio_set(chip, offset, value);
+
+       cfgx.u64 = 0;
+       cfgx.s.tx_oe = 1;

This makes me want to review that magic header file of yours,
I guess this comes from <asm/octeon/cvmx-gpio-defs.h>?

Not really magic, but yes that is where it comes from.


Should not this latter variable be a bool?

I don't think so, it is not the result of a comparison operator.


I'm not a fan of packed bitfields like this, I prefer if you just
OR | and AND & the bits together in the driver.

+static int octeon_gpio_get(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset)
+{
+       struct octeon_gpio *gpio = container_of(chip, struct octeon_gpio, chip);
+       u64 read_bits = cvmx_read_csr(gpio->register_base + RX_DAT);
+
+       return ((1ull << offset) & read_bits) != 0;

A common idiom we use for this is:

return !!(read_bits & (1ull << offset));

I hate that idiom, but if its use is a condition of accepting the patch, I will change it.

+       chip->owner = THIS_MODULE;
+       chip->base = 0;
+       chip->can_sleep = 0;
+       chip->ngpio = 20;
+       chip->direction_input = octeon_gpio_dir_in;
+       chip->get = octeon_gpio_get;
+       chip->direction_output = octeon_gpio_dir_out;

+       if (err)
+               goto out;
+
+       dev_info(&pdev->dev, "OCTEON GPIO\n");

This is like shouting "REAL MADRID!" in the bootlog, be a bit more
precise: "octeon GPIO driver probed\n" or something so we know what
is happening.

No, more akin to 'Real Madrid', as 'OCTEON' is the correct spelling of its given name.

I will happily add "driver probed", and grudgingly switch to lower case if it is a necessary condition of patch acceptance.
