Drivers can be written generically, so that board setup code +passes such pin configuration data to drivers. + +System-on-Chip (SOC) processors heavily rely on GPIOs. In some cases, every +non-dedicated pin can be configured as a GPIO; and most chips have at least +several dozen of them. Programmable logic devices (like FPGAs) can easily +provide GPIOs; multifunction chips like power managers, and audio codecs +often have a few such pins to help with pin scarcity on SOCs; and there are +also "GPIO Expander" chips that connect using the I2C or SPI serial busses. +Most PC southbridges have a few dozen GPIO-capable pins (with only the BIOS +firmware knowing how they're used). + +The exact capabilities of GPIOs vary between systems. Common options: + + - Output values are writable (high=1, low=0). Some chips also have + options about how that value is driven, so that for example only one + value might be driven ... supporting "wire-OR" and similar schemes + for the other value. + + - Input values are likewise readable (1, 0). Some chips support readback + of pins configured as "output", which is very useful in such "wire-OR" + cases (to support bidirectional signaling). GPIO controllers may have + input de-glitch logic, sometimes with software controls. + + - Inputs can often be used as IRQ signals, often edge triggered but + sometimes level triggered. Such IRQs may be configurable as system + wakeup events, to wake the system from a low power state. + + - Usually a GPIO will be configurable as either input or output, as needed + by different product boards; single direction ones exist too. + + - Most GPIOs can be accessed while holding spinlocks, but those accessed + through a serial bus normally can't. Some systems support both types. + +On a given board each GPIO is used for one specific purpose like monitoring +MMC/SD card insertion/removal, detecting card writeprotect status, driving +a LED, configuring a transceiver, bitbanging a serial bus, poking a hardware +watchdog, sensing a switch, and so on. + + +GPIO conventions +================ +Note that this is called a "convention" because you don't need to do it this +way, and it's no crime if you don't. There **are** cases where portability +is not the main issue; GPIOs are often used for the kind of board-specific +glue logic that may even change between board revisions, and can't ever be +used on a board that's wired differently. Only least-common-denominator +functionality can be very portable. Other features are platform-specific, +and that can be critical for glue logic. + +Plus, this doesn't define an implementation framework, just an interface. +One platform might implement it as simple inline functions accessing chip +registers; another might implement it by delegating through abstractions +used for several very different kinds of GPIO controller. + +That said, if the convention is supported on their platform, drivers should +use it when possible: + + #include <asm/gpio.h> + +If you stick to this convention then it'll be easier for other developers to +see what your code is doing, and help maintain it. + + +Identifying GPIOs +----------------- +GPIOs are identified by unsigned integers in the range 0..MAX_INT. That +reserves "negative" numbers for other purposes like marking signals as +"not available on this board", or indicating faults. + +Platforms define how they use those integers, and usually #define symbols +for the GPIO lines so that board-specific setup code directly corresponds +to the relevant schematics. In contrast, drivers should only use GPIO +numbers passed to them from that setup code, using platform_data to hold +board-specific pin configuration data (along with other board specific +data they need). That avoids portability problems. + +So for example one platform uses numbers 32-159 for GPIOs; while another +uses numbers 0..63 with one set of GPIO controllers, 64-79 with another +type of GPIO controller, and on one particular board 80-95 with an FPGA. +The numbers need not be contiguous; either of those platforms could also +use numbers 2000-2063 to identify GPIOs in a bank of I2C GPIO expanders. + +Whether a platform supports multiple GPIO controllers is currently a +platform-specific implementation issue. + + +Using GPIOs +----------- +One of the first things to do with a GPIO, often in board setup code when +setting up a platform_device using the GPIO, is mark its direction: + + /* set as input or output, returning 0 or negative errno */ + int gpio_direction_input(unsigned gpio); + int gpio_direction_output(unsigned gpio); + +The return value is zero for success, else a negative errno. It should +be checked, since the get/set calls don't have error returns and since +misconfiguration is possible. (These calls could sleep.) + +Setting the direction can fail if the GPIO number is invalid, or when +that particular GPIO can't be used in that mode. It's generally a bad +idea to rely on boot firmware to have set the direction correctly, since +it probably wasn't validated to do more than boot Linux. (Similarly, +that board setup code probably needs to multiplex that pin as a GPIO, +and configure pullups/pulldowns appropriately.) + + +Spinlock-Safe GPIO access +------------------------- +Most GPIO controllers can be accessed with memory read/write instructions. +That doesn't need to sleep, and can safely be done from inside IRQ handlers. + +Use these calls to access such GPIOs: + + /* GPIO INPUT: return zero or nonzero */ + int gpio_get_value(unsigned gpio); + + /* GPIO OUTPUT */ + void gpio_set_value(unsigned gpio, int value); + +The values are boolean, zero for low, nonzero for high. When reading the +value of an output pin, the value returned should be what's seen on the +pin ... that won't always match the specified output value, because of +issues including wire-OR and output latencies. + +The get/set calls have no error returns because "invalid GPIO" should have +been reported earlier in gpio_set_direction(). However, note that not all +platforms can read the value of output pins; those that can't should always +return zero. Also, these calls will be ignored for GPIOs that can't safely +be accessed wihtout sleeping (see below). + +Platform-specific implementations are encouraged to optimise the two +calls to access the GPIO value in cases where the GPIO number (and for +output, value) are constant. It's normal for them to need only a couple +of instructions in such cases (reading or writing a hardware register), +and not to need spinlocks. Such optimized calls can make bitbanging +applications a lot more efficient (in both space and time) than spending +dozens of instructions on subroutine calls. + + +GPIO access that may sleep +-------------------------- +Some GPIO controllers must be accessed using message based busses like I2C +or SPI. Commands to read or write those GPIO values require waiting to +get to the head of a queue to transmit a command and get its response. +This requires sleeping, which can't be done from inside IRQ handlers. + +Platforms that support this type of GPIO distinguish them from other GPIOs +by returning nonzero from this call: + + int gpio_cansleep(unsigned gpio); + +To access such GPIOs, a different set of accessors is defined: + + /* GPIO INPUT: return zero or nonzero, might sleep */ + int gpio_get_value_cansleep(unsigned gpio); + + /* GPIO OUTPUT, might sleep */ + void gpio_set_value_cansleep(unsigned gpio, int value); + +Other than the fact that these calls might sleep, and will not be ignored +for GPIOs that can't be accessed from IRQ handlers, these calls act the +same as the spinlock-safe calls. + + +Claiming and Releasing GPIOs (OPTIONAL) +--------------------------------------- +To help catch system configuration errors, two calls are defined. +However, many platforms don't currently support this mechanism. + + /* request GPIO, returning 0 or negative errno. + * non-null labels may be useful for diagnostics. + */ + int gpio_request(unsigned gpio, const char *label); + + /* release previously-claimed GPIO */ + void gpio_free(unsigned gpio); + +Passing invalid GPIO numbers to gpio_request() will fail, as will requesting +GPIOs that have already been claimed with that call. The return value of +gpio_request() must be checked. (These calls could sleep.) + +These calls serve two basic purposes. One is marking the signals which +are actually in use as GPIOs, for better diagnostics; systems may have +several hundred potential GPIOs, but often only a dozen are used on any +given board. Another is to catch conflicts between drivers, reporting +errors when drivers wrongly think they have exclusive use of that signal. + +These two calls are optional because not not all current Linux platforms +offer such functionality in their GPIO support; a valid implementation +could return success for all gpio_request() calls. Unlike the other calls, +the state they represent doesn't normally match anything from a hardware +register; it's just a software bitmap which clearly is not necessary for +correct operation of hardware or (bug free) drivers. + +Note that requesting a GPIO does NOT cause it to be configured in any +way; it just marks that GPIO as in use. Separate code must handle any +pin setup (e.g. controlling which pin the GPIO uses, pullup/pulldown). + + +GPIOs mapped to IRQs +-------------------- +GPIO numbers are unsigned integers; so are IRQ numbers. These make up +two logically distinct namespaces (GPIO 0 need not use IRQ 0). You can +map between them using calls like: + + /* map GPIO numbers to IRQ numbers */ + int gpio_to_irq(unsigned gpio); + + /* map IRQ numbers to GPIO numbers */ + int irq_to_gpio(unsigned irq); + +Those return either the corresponding number in the other namespace, or +else a negative errno code if the mapping can't be done. (For example, +some GPIOs can't used as IRQs.) It is an unchecked error to use a GPIO +number that hasn't been marked as an input using gpio_set_direction(), or +to use an IRQ number that didn't originally come from gpio_to_irq(). + +These two mapping calls are expected to cost on the order of a single +addition or subtraction. They're not allowed to sleep. + +Non-error values returned from gpio_to_irq() can be passed to request_irq() +or free_irq(). They will often be stored into IRQ resources for platform +devices, by the board-specific initialization code. Note that IRQ trigger +options are part of the IRQ interface, e.g. IRQF_TRIGGER_FALLING, as are +system wakeup capabilities. + +Non-error values returned from irq_to_gpio() would most commonly be used +with gpio_get_value(). + + + +What do these conventions omit? +=============================== +One of the biggest things these conventions omit is pin multiplexing, since +this is highly chip-specific and nonportable. One platform might not need +explicit multiplexing; another might have just two options for use of any +given pin; another might have eight options per pin; another might be able +to route a given GPIO to any one of several pins. (Yes, those examples all +come from systems that run Linux today.) + +Related to multiplexing is configuration and enabling of the pullups or +pulldowns integrated on some platforms. Not all platforms support them, +or support them in the same way; and any given board might use external +pullups (or pulldowns) so that the on-chip ones should not be used. + +There are other system-specific mechanisms that are not specified here, +like the aforementioned options for input de-glitching and wire-OR output. +Hardware may support reading or writing GPIOs in gangs, but that's usually +configuration dependednt: for GPIOs sharing the same bank. (GPIOs are +commonly grouped in banks of 16 or 32, with a given SOC having several such +banks.) Code relying on such mechanisms will necessarily be nonportable. + +Dynamic definition of GPIOs is not currently supported; for example, as +a side effect of configuring an add-on board with some GPIO expanders. + +These calls are purely for kernel space, but a userspace API could be built +on top of it. diff --git a/Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-i801 b/Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-i801 index 3db69a086c4..c34f0db78a3 100644 --- a/Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-i801 +++ b/Documentation/i2c/busses/i2c-i801 @@ -48,14 +48,9 @@ following: The SMBus controller is function 3 in device 1f.

The new node also +needs a link to its parent node for rebalancing purposes. + +Example: + + int my_insert(struct rb_root *root, struct mytype *data) + { + struct rb_node **new = &(root->rb_node), *parent = NULL; + + /* Figure out where to put new node */ + while (*new) { + struct mytype *this = container_of(*new, struct mytype, node); + int result = strcmp(data->keystring, this->keystring); + + parent = *new; + if (result < 0) + new = &((*new)->rb_left); + else if (result > 0) + new = &((*new)->rb_right); + else + return FALSE; + } + + /* Add new node and rebalance tree. */ + rb_link_node(data->node, parent, new); + rb_insert_color(data->node, root); + + return TRUE; + } + +Removing or replacing existing data in an rbtree +------------------------------------------------ + +To remove an existing node from a tree, call: + + void rb_erase(struct rb_node *victim, struct rb_root *tree); + +Example: + + struct mytype *data = mysearch(mytree, "walrus"); + + if (data) { + rb_erase(data->node, mytree); + myfree(data); + } + +To replace an existing node in a tree with a new one with the same key, call: + + void rb_replace_node(struct rb_node *old, struct rb_node *new, + struct rb_root *tree); + +Replacing a node this way does not re-sort the tree: If the new node doesn't +have the same key as the old node, the rbtree will probably become corrupted. + +Iterating through the elements stored in an rbtree (in sort order) +------------------------------------------------------------------ + +Four functions are provided for iterating through an rbtree's contents in +sorted order. These work on arbitrary trees, and should not need to be +modified or wrapped (except for locking purposes): + + struct rb_node *rb_first(struct rb_root *tree); + struct rb_node *rb_last(struct rb_root *tree); + struct rb_node *rb_next(struct rb_node *node); + struct rb_node *rb_prev(struct rb_node *node); + +To start iterating, call rb_first() or rb_last() with a pointer to the root +of the tree, which will return a pointer to the node structure contained in +the first or last element in the tree. To continue, fetch the next or previous +node by calling rb_next() or rb_prev() on the current node. This will return +NULL when there are no more nodes left. + +The iterator functions return a pointer to the embedded struct rb_node, from +which the containing data structure may be accessed with the container_of() +macro, and individual members may be accessed directly via +rb_entry(node, type, member). + +Example: + + struct rb_node *node; + for (node = rb_first(&mytree); node; node = rb_next(node)) + printk("key=%s\n", rb_entry(node, int, keystring)); + diff --git a/Documentation/rtc.txt b/Documentation/rtc.txt index 7cf1ec5bcdd..1ef6bb88cd0 100644 --- a/Documentation/rtc.txt +++ b/Documentation/rtc.txt @@ -149,7 +149,7 @@ RTC class framework, but can't be supported by the older driver. is connected to an IRQ line, it can often issue an alarm IRQ up to 24 hours in the future. - * RTC_WKALM_SET, RTC_WKALM_READ ...
