Nice to hear someone is interested in :-).

Make sense, I’ll do so.

I understand. I will change 'tristate' to 'bool' and update the help
to avoid any confusion.

Silly me. No, it was not intentional; it's a mistake. The last statement
should return GPIOF_DIR_OUT. Thank you for pointing that out. I'll fix it.

Thanks for hit.

I have registered the device in the board code now. In theory, it is
definitely possible to register the device using ACPI match, and I agree
with you that it's useful.

Unfortunately, the GPIO community resource definition is inside the DSDT
ACPI table for my device. I might be wrong here, but I think that Barebox
parses root tables but doesn’t delve into the nested DSDT at the moment.
So it's getting a bit complicated here. I can take a closer look at it
later (without any guarantee of success, of course :-)), but I would
consider it a different patch if you don't mind.

Needless to say, I am coming from the ARM world and haven't found my way
the ACPI just yet :-).

Is following code what you have in mind?

include/platform_data/gpio-intel.h:

	struct gpio_intel_platform_data {
		resource_size_t community_base;
		resource_size_t community_size;
		unsigned int	ngpios;
	};

	static inline struct device *add_intel_gpio_device(
		struct gpio_intel_platform_data *pdata
	)
	{
		return add_generic_device("intel-gpio", DEVICE_ID_DYNAMIC, NULL,
			pdata->community_base, pdata->community_size,
			IORESOURCE_MEM, pdata);
	}


Best regards

Tomas
