pinctrl: add a pin config interface
This add per-pin and per-group pin config interfaces for biasing,
driving and other such electronic properties. The details of passed
configurations are passed in an opaque unsigned long which may be
dereferences to integer types, structs or lists on either side
of the configuration interface.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Clear split of terminology: we now have pin controllers, and
those may support two interfaces using vtables: pin
multiplexing and pin configuration.
- Break out pin configuration to its own C file, controllers may
implement only config without mux, and vice versa, so keep each
sub-functionality of pin controllers separate. Introduce
CONFIG_PINCONF in Kconfig.
- Implement some core logic around pin configuration in the
pinconf.c file.
- Remove UNKNOWN config states, these were just surplus baggage.
- Remove FLOAT config state - HIGH_IMPEDANCE should be enough for
everyone.
- PIN_CONFIG_POWER_SOURCE added to handle switching the power
supply for the pin logic between different sources
- Explicit DISABLE config enums to turn schmitt-trigger,
wakeup etc OFF.
- Update documentation to reflect all the recent reasoning.
ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Twist API around to pass around arrays of config tuples instead
of (param, value) pairs everywhere.
- Explicit drive strength semantics for push/pull and similar
drive modes, this shall be the number of drive stages vs
nominal load impedance, which should match the actual
electronics used in push/pull CMOS or TTY totempoles.
- Drop load capacitance configuration - I probably don't know
what I'm doing here so leave it out.
- Drop PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_SCHMITT_OFF, instead the argument zero to
PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_SCHMITT turns schmitt trigger off.
- Drop PIN_CONFIG_NORMAL_POWER_MODE and have a well defined
argument to PIN_CONFIG_LOW_POWER_MODE to get out of it instead.
- Drop PIN_CONFIG_WAKEUP_ENABLE/DISABLE and just use
PIN_CONFIG_WAKEUP with defined value zero to turn wakeup off.
- Add PIN_CONFIG_INPUT_DEBOUNCE for configuring debounce time
on input lines.
- Fix a bug when we tried to configure pins for pin controllers
without pinconf support.
- Initialized debugfs properly so it works.
- Initialize the mutex properly and lock around config tampering
sections.
- Check the return value from get_initial_config() properly.
ChangeLog v3->v4:
- Export the pin_config_get(), pin_config_set() and
pin_config_group() functions.
- Drop the entire concept of just getting initial config and
keeping track of pin states internally, instead ask the pins
what state they are in. Previous idea was plain wrong, if the
device cannot keep track of its state, the driver should do
it.
- Drop the generic configuration layout, it seems this impose
too much restriction on some pin controllers, so let them do
things the way they want and split off support for generic
config as an optional add-on.
ChangeLog v4->v5:
- Introduce two symmetric driver calls for group configuration,
.pin_config_group_[get|set] and corresponding external calls.
- Remove generic semantic meanings of return values from config
calls, these belong in the generic config patch. Just pass the
return value through instead.
- Add a debugfs entry "pinconf-groups" to read status from group
configuration only, also slam in a per-group debug callback in
the pinconf_ops so custom drivers can display something
meaningful for their pins.
- Fix some dangling newline.
- Drop dangling #else clause.
- Update documentation to match the above.
ChangeLog v5->v6:
- Change to using a pin name as parameter for the
[get|set]_config() functions, as suggested by Stephen Warren.
This is more natural as names will be what a developer has
access to in written documentation etc.
ChangeLog v6->v7:
- Refactor out by-pin and by-name get/set functions, only expose
the by-name functions externally, expose the by-pin functions
internally.
- Show supported pin control functionality in the debugfs
pinctrl-devices file.
