| 19 | Say Y here to add some extra checks and diagnostics to GPIO calls. |
| 20 | The checks help ensure that GPIOs have been properly initialized |
| 21 | before they are used and that sleeping calls aren not made from |
| 22 | nonsleeping contexts. They can make bitbanged serial protocols |
| 23 | slower. The diagnostics help catch the type of setup errors |
| 24 | that are most common when setting up new platforms or boards. |

| 34 | Say yes here to provide access to most "quasi-bidirectional" I2C |
| 35 | GPIO expanders used for additional digital outputs or inputs. |
| 36 | Most of these parts are from NXP, though TI is a second source for |
| 37 | some of them. Compatible models include: |
| 38 | |
| 39 | 8 bits: pcf8574, pcf8574a, pca8574, pca8574a, |
| 40 | pca9670, pca9672, pca9674, pca9674a |
| 41 | |
| 42 | 16 bits: pcf8575, pcf8575c, pca8575, |
| 43 | pca9671, pca9673, pca9675 |
| 44 | |
| 45 | Your board setup code will need to declare the expanders in |
| 46 | use, and assign numbers to the GPIOs they expose. Those GPIOs |
| 47 | can then be used from drivers and other kernel code, just like |
| 48 | other GPIOs, but only accessible from task contexts. |
| 49 | |
| 50 | This driver provides an in-kernel interface to those GPIOs using |
| 51 | platform-neutral GPIO calls. |
