Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001PINCTRL (PIN CONTROL) subsystem
2This document outlines the pin control subsystem in Linux
3
4This subsystem deals with:
5
6- Enumerating and naming controllable pins
7
8- Multiplexing of pins, pads, fingers (etc) see below for details
9
Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +020010- Configuration of pins, pads, fingers (etc), such as software-controlled
11 biasing and driving mode specific pins, such as pull-up/down, open drain,
12 load capacitance etc.

17Definition of PIN CONTROLLER:
18
19- A pin controller is a piece of hardware, usually a set of registers, that
20 can control PINs. It may be able to multiplex, bias, set load capacitance,
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +000021 set drive strength, etc. for individual pins or groups of pins.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020022
23Definition of PIN:
24
25- PINS are equal to pads, fingers, balls or whatever packaging input or
26 output line you want to control and these are denoted by unsigned integers
27 in the range 0..maxpin. This numberspace is local to each PIN CONTROLLER, so
28 there may be several such number spaces in a system. This pin space may
29 be sparse - i.e. there may be gaps in the space with numbers where no
30 pin exists.
31
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +010032When a PIN CONTROLLER is instantiated, it will register a descriptor to the
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020033pin control framework, and this descriptor contains an array of pin descriptors
34describing the pins handled by this specific pin controller.
35
36Here is an example of a PGA (Pin Grid Array) chip seen from underneath:

55
56To register a pin controller and name all the pins on this package we can do
57this in our driver:
58
59#include <linux/pinctrl/pinctrl.h>
60
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +010061const struct pinctrl_pin_desc foo_pins[] = {
62 PINCTRL_PIN(0, "A8"),
63 PINCTRL_PIN(1, "B8"),
64 PINCTRL_PIN(2, "C8"),
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020065 ...
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +010066 PINCTRL_PIN(61, "F1"),
67 PINCTRL_PIN(62, "G1"),
68 PINCTRL_PIN(63, "H1"),
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020069};
70
71static struct pinctrl_desc foo_desc = {
72 .name = "foo",
73 .pins = foo_pins,
74 .npins = ARRAY_SIZE(foo_pins),
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020075 .owner = THIS_MODULE,
76};
77
78int __init foo_probe(void)
79{
80 struct pinctrl_dev *pctl;
81
82 pctl = pinctrl_register(&foo_desc, <PARENT>, NULL);
Axel Line2b86b82013-08-18 20:43:33 +080083 if (!pctl)
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020084 pr_err("could not register foo pin driver\n");
85}
86
Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +020087To enable the pinctrl subsystem and the subgroups for PINMUX and PINCONF and
88selected drivers, you need to select them from your machine's Kconfig entry,
89since these are so tightly integrated with the machines they are used on.
90See for example arch/arm/mach-u300/Kconfig for an example.
91
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +000092Pins usually have fancier names than this. You can find these in the datasheet
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020093for your chip. Notice that the core pinctrl.h file provides a fancy macro
94called PINCTRL_PIN() to create the struct entries. As you can see I enumerated
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +010095the pins from 0 in the upper left corner to 63 in the lower right corner.
96This enumeration was arbitrarily chosen, in practice you need to think
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020097through your numbering system so that it matches the layout of registers
98and such things in your driver, or the code may become complicated. You must
99also consider matching of offsets to the GPIO ranges that may be handled by
100the pin controller.
101
102For a padring with 467 pads, as opposed to actual pins, I used an enumeration
103like this, walking around the edge of the chip, which seems to be industry
104standard too (all these pads had names, too):
105
106
107 0 ..... 104
108 466 105
109 . .
110 . .
111 358 224
112 357 .... 225
113
114
115Pin groups
116==========
117
118Many controllers need to deal with groups of pins, so the pin controller
119subsystem has a mechanism for enumerating groups of pins and retrieving the
120actual enumerated pins that are part of a certain group.
121
122For example, say that we have a group of pins dealing with an SPI interface
123on { 0, 8, 16, 24 }, and a group of pins dealing with an I2C interface on pins
124on { 24, 25 }.
125
126These two groups are presented to the pin control subsystem by implementing
127some generic pinctrl_ops like this:
128
129#include <linux/pinctrl/pinctrl.h>
130
131struct foo_group {
132 const char *name;
133 const unsigned int *pins;
134 const unsigned num_pins;
135};
136

138static const unsigned int i2c0_pins[] = { 24, 25 };

141 {
142 .name = "spi0_grp",
143 .pins = spi0_pins,
144 .num_pins = ARRAY_SIZE(spi0_pins),
145 },
146 {
147 .name = "i2c0_grp",
148 .pins = i2c0_pins,
149 .num_pins = ARRAY_SIZE(i2c0_pins),
150 },
151};

169 *pins = (unsigned *) foo_groups[selector].pins;
170 *num_pins = foo_groups[selector].num_pins;
171 return 0;
172}
173
174static struct pinctrl_ops foo_pctrl_ops = {
Viresh Kumard1e90e92012-03-30 11:25:40 +0530175 .get_groups_count = foo_get_groups_count,
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200176 .get_group_name = foo_get_group_name,
177 .get_group_pins = foo_get_group_pins,
178};
179
180
181static struct pinctrl_desc foo_desc = {
182 ...
183 .pctlops = &foo_pctrl_ops,
184};
185
Viresh Kumard1e90e92012-03-30 11:25:40 +0530186The pin control subsystem will call the .get_groups_count() function to
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000187determine the total number of legal selectors, then it will call the other functions
Viresh Kumard1e90e92012-03-30 11:25:40 +0530188to retrieve the name and pins of the group. Maintaining the data structure of
189the groups is up to the driver, this is just a simple example - in practice you
190may need more entries in your group structure, for example specific register
191ranges associated with each group and so on.

Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +0200194Pin configuration
195=================
196
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000197Pins can sometimes be software-configured in various ways, mostly related
Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +0200198to their electronic properties when used as inputs or outputs. For example you
199may be able to make an output pin high impedance, or "tristate" meaning it is
200effectively disconnected. You may be able to connect an input pin to VDD or GND
201using a certain resistor value - pull up and pull down - so that the pin has a
202stable value when nothing is driving the rail it is connected to, or when it's
203unconnected.
204
Linus Walleijad42fc62013-06-24 15:06:19 +0200205Pin configuration can be programmed by adding configuration entries into the
206mapping table; see section "Board/machine configuration" below.
Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +0200207
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -0700208The format and meaning of the configuration parameter, PLATFORM_X_PULL_UP
209above, is entirely defined by the pin controller driver.
210
211The pin configuration driver implements callbacks for changing pin
212configuration in the pin controller ops like this:
Linus Walleijae6b4d82011-10-19 18:14:33 +0200213

264static struct pinctrl_desc foo_desc = {
265 ...
266 .confops = &foo_pconf_ops,
267};
268
269Since some controllers have special logic for handling entire groups of pins
270they can exploit the special whole-group pin control function. The
271pin_config_group_set() callback is allowed to return the error code -EAGAIN,
272for groups it does not want to handle, or if it just wants to do some
273group-level handling and then fall through to iterate over all pins, in which
274case each individual pin will be treated by separate pin_config_set() calls as
275well.
276
277
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200278Interaction with the GPIO subsystem
279===================================
280
281The GPIO drivers may want to perform operations of various types on the same
282physical pins that are also registered as pin controller pins.
283
Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +0200284First and foremost, the two subsystems can be used as completely orthogonal,
285see the section named "pin control requests from drivers" and
286"drivers needing both pin control and GPIOs" below for details. But in some
287situations a cross-subsystem mapping between pins and GPIOs is needed.
288
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200289Since the pin controller subsystem have its pinspace local to the pin
290controller we need a mapping so that the pin control subsystem can figure out
291which pin controller handles control of a certain GPIO pin. Since a single
292pin controller may be muxing several GPIO ranges (typically SoCs that have
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000293one set of pins, but internally several GPIO silicon blocks, each modelled as
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200294a struct gpio_chip) any number of GPIO ranges can be added to a pin controller
295instance like this:
296
297struct gpio_chip chip_a;
298struct gpio_chip chip_b;
299
300static struct pinctrl_gpio_range gpio_range_a = {
301 .name = "chip a",
302 .id = 0,
303 .base = 32,
Chanho Park3c739ad2011-11-11 18:47:58 +0900304 .pin_base = 32,
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200305 .npins = 16,
306 .gc = &chip_a;
307};
308
Chanho Park3c739ad2011-11-11 18:47:58 +0900309static struct pinctrl_gpio_range gpio_range_b = {
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200310 .name = "chip b",
311 .id = 0,
312 .base = 48,
Chanho Park3c739ad2011-11-11 18:47:58 +0900313 .pin_base = 64,
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200314 .npins = 8,
315 .gc = &chip_b;
316};
317
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200318{
319 struct pinctrl_dev *pctl;
320 ...
321 pinctrl_add_gpio_range(pctl, &gpio_range_a);
322 pinctrl_add_gpio_range(pctl, &gpio_range_b);
323}
324
325So this complex system has one pin controller handling two different
Chanho Park3c739ad2011-11-11 18:47:58 +0900326GPIO chips. "chip a" has 16 pins and "chip b" has 8 pins. The "chip a" and
327"chip b" have different .pin_base, which means a start pin number of the
328GPIO range.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200329
Chanho Park3c739ad2011-11-11 18:47:58 +0900330The GPIO range of "chip a" starts from the GPIO base of 32 and actual
331pin range also starts from 32. However "chip b" has different starting
332offset for the GPIO range and pin range. The GPIO range of "chip b" starts
333from GPIO number 48, while the pin range of "chip b" starts from 64.
334
335We can convert a gpio number to actual pin number using this "pin_base".
336They are mapped in the global GPIO pin space at:
337
338chip a:
339 - GPIO range : [32 .. 47]
340 - pin range : [32 .. 47]
341chip b:
342 - GPIO range : [48 .. 55]
343 - pin range : [64 .. 71]
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200344
Linus Walleij30cf8212013-06-16 12:15:36 +0200345The above examples assume the mapping between the GPIOs and pins is
346linear. If the mapping is sparse or haphazard, an array of arbitrary pin
347numbers can be encoded in the range like this:
348
349static const unsigned range_pins[] = { 14, 1, 22, 17, 10, 8, 6, 2 };
350
351static struct pinctrl_gpio_range gpio_range = {
352 .name = "chip",
353 .id = 0,
354 .base = 32,
355 .pins = &range_pins,
356 .npins = ARRAY_SIZE(range_pins),
357 .gc = &chip;
358};
359
Christian Ruppertfe610522013-10-16 14:56:54 +0200360In this case the pin_base property will be ignored. If the name of a pin
361group is known, the pins and npins elements of the above structure can be
362initialised using the function pinctrl_get_group_pins(), e.g. for pin
363group "foo":
364
365pinctrl_get_group_pins(pctl, "foo", &gpio_range.pins, &gpio_range.npins);
Linus Walleij30cf8212013-06-16 12:15:36 +0200366
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200367When GPIO-specific functions in the pin control subsystem are called, these
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +0100368ranges will be used to look up the appropriate pin controller by inspecting
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200369and matching the pin to the pin ranges across all controllers. When a
370pin controller handling the matching range is found, GPIO-specific functions
371will be called on that specific pin controller.
372
373For all functionalities dealing with pin biasing, pin muxing etc, the pin
Linus Walleij30cf8212013-06-16 12:15:36 +0200374controller subsystem will look up the corresponding pin number from the passed
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000375in gpio number, and use the range's internals to retrieve a pin number. After
Linus Walleij30cf8212013-06-16 12:15:36 +0200376that, the subsystem passes it on to the pin control driver, so the driver
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000377will get a pin number into its handled number range. Further it is also passed
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200378the range ID value, so that the pin controller knows which range it should
379deal with.

Shiraz Hashimf23f1512012-10-27 15:21:36 +0530381Calling pinctrl_add_gpio_range from pinctrl driver is DEPRECATED. Please see
382section 2.1 of Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt on how to bind

Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200386PINMUX interfaces
387=================
388
389These calls use the pinmux_* naming prefix. No other calls should use that
390prefix.
391
392
393What is pinmuxing?
394==================
395
396PINMUX, also known as padmux, ballmux, alternate functions or mission modes
397is a way for chip vendors producing some kind of electrical packages to use
398a certain physical pin (ball, pad, finger, etc) for multiple mutually exclusive
399functions, depending on the application. By "application" in this context
400we usually mean a way of soldering or wiring the package into an electronic
401system, even though the framework makes it possible to also change the function
402at runtime.
403
404Here is an example of a PGA (Pin Grid Array) chip seen from underneath:
405
406 A B C D E F G H

408 8 | o | o o o o o o o
409 | |
410 7 | o | o o o o o o o

424
425This is not tetris. The game to think of is chess. Not all PGA/BGA packages
426are chessboard-like, big ones have "holes" in some arrangement according to
427different design patterns, but we're using this as a simple example. Of the
428pins you see some will be taken by things like a few VCC and GND to feed power
429to the chip, and quite a few will be taken by large ports like an external
430memory interface. The remaining pins will often be subject to pin multiplexing.
431
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000432The example 8x8 PGA package above will have pin numbers 0 through 63 assigned
433to its physical pins. It will name the pins { A1, A2, A3 ... H6, H7, H8 } using
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200434pinctrl_register_pins() and a suitable data set as shown earlier.
435
436In this 8x8 BGA package the pins { A8, A7, A6, A5 } can be used as an SPI port
437(these are four pins: CLK, RXD, TXD, FRM). In that case, pin B5 can be used as
438some general-purpose GPIO pin. However, in another setting, pins { A5, B5 } can
439be used as an I2C port (these are just two pins: SCL, SDA). Needless to say,
440we cannot use the SPI port and I2C port at the same time. However in the inside
441of the package the silicon performing the SPI logic can alternatively be routed
442out on pins { G4, G3, G2, G1 }.
443
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000444On the bottom row at { A1, B1, C1, D1, E1, F1, G1, H1 } we have something
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200445special - it's an external MMC bus that can be 2, 4 or 8 bits wide, and it will
446consume 2, 4 or 8 pins respectively, so either { A1, B1 } are taken or
447{ A1, B1, C1, D1 } or all of them. If we use all 8 bits, we cannot use the SPI
448port on pins { G4, G3, G2, G1 } of course.
449
450This way the silicon blocks present inside the chip can be multiplexed "muxed"
451out on different pin ranges. Often contemporary SoC (systems on chip) will
452contain several I2C, SPI, SDIO/MMC, etc silicon blocks that can be routed to
453different pins by pinmux settings.
454
455Since general-purpose I/O pins (GPIO) are typically always in shortage, it is
456common to be able to use almost any pin as a GPIO pin if it is not currently
457in use by some other I/O port.
458
459
460Pinmux conventions
461==================
462
463The purpose of the pinmux functionality in the pin controller subsystem is to
464abstract and provide pinmux settings to the devices you choose to instantiate
465in your machine configuration. It is inspired by the clk, GPIO and regulator
466subsystems, so devices will request their mux setting, but it's also possible
467to request a single pin for e.g. GPIO.
468
469Definitions:
470
471- FUNCTIONS can be switched in and out by a driver residing with the pin
472 control subsystem in the drivers/pinctrl/* directory of the kernel. The
473 pin control driver knows the possible functions. In the example above you can
474 identify three pinmux functions, one for spi, one for i2c and one for mmc.
475
476- FUNCTIONS are assumed to be enumerable from zero in a one-dimensional array.
477 In this case the array could be something like: { spi0, i2c0, mmc0 }
478 for the three available functions.
479
480- FUNCTIONS have PIN GROUPS as defined on the generic level - so a certain
481 function is *always* associated with a certain set of pin groups, could
482 be just a single one, but could also be many. In the example above the
483 function i2c is associated with the pins { A5, B5 }, enumerated as
484 { 24, 25 } in the controller pin space.
485
486 The Function spi is associated with pin groups { A8, A7, A6, A5 }
487 and { G4, G3, G2, G1 }, which are enumerated as { 0, 8, 16, 24 } and
488 { 38, 46, 54, 62 } respectively.
489
490 Group names must be unique per pin controller, no two groups on the same
491 controller may have the same name.
492
493- The combination of a FUNCTION and a PIN GROUP determine a certain function
494 for a certain set of pins. The knowledge of the functions and pin groups
495 and their machine-specific particulars are kept inside the pinmux driver,
496 from the outside only the enumerators are known, and the driver core can:
497
498 - Request the name of a function with a certain selector (>= 0)
499 - A list of groups associated with a certain function
500 - Request that a certain group in that list to be activated for a certain
501 function
502
503 As already described above, pin groups are in turn self-descriptive, so
504 the core will retrieve the actual pin range in a certain group from the
505 driver.
506
507- FUNCTIONS and GROUPS on a certain PIN CONTROLLER are MAPPED to a certain
508 device by the board file, device tree or similar machine setup configuration
509 mechanism, similar to how regulators are connected to devices, usually by
510 name. Defining a pin controller, function and group thus uniquely identify
511 the set of pins to be used by a certain device. (If only one possible group
512 of pins is available for the function, no group name need to be supplied -
513 the core will simply select the first and only group available.)
514
515 In the example case we can define that this particular machine shall
516 use device spi0 with pinmux function fspi0 group gspi0 and i2c0 on function
517 fi2c0 group gi2c0, on the primary pin controller, we get mappings
518 like these:
519
520 {
521 {"map-spi0", spi0, pinctrl0, fspi0, gspi0},
522 {"map-i2c0", i2c0, pinctrl0, fi2c0, gi2c0}
523 }
524
Stephen Warren1681f5a2012-02-22 14:25:58 -0700525 Every map must be assigned a state name, pin controller, device and
526 function. The group is not compulsory - if it is omitted the first group
527 presented by the driver as applicable for the function will be selected,
528 which is useful for simple cases.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200529
530 It is possible to map several groups to the same combination of device,
531 pin controller and function. This is for cases where a certain function on
532 a certain pin controller may use different sets of pins in different
533 configurations.
534
535- PINS for a certain FUNCTION using a certain PIN GROUP on a certain
536 PIN CONTROLLER are provided on a first-come first-serve basis, so if some
537 other device mux setting or GPIO pin request has already taken your physical
538 pin, you will be denied the use of it. To get (activate) a new setting, the
539 old one has to be put (deactivated) first.
540
541Sometimes the documentation and hardware registers will be oriented around
542pads (or "fingers") rather than pins - these are the soldering surfaces on the
543silicon inside the package, and may or may not match the actual number of
544pins/balls underneath the capsule. Pick some enumeration that makes sense to
545you. Define enumerators only for the pins you can control if that makes sense.
546
547Assumptions:
548
Linus Walleij336cdba02011-11-10 09:27:41 +0100549We assume that the number of possible function maps to pin groups is limited by
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200550the hardware. I.e. we assume that there is no system where any function can be
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000551mapped to any pin, like in a phone exchange. So the available pin groups for
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200552a certain function will be limited to a few choices (say up to eight or so),
553not hundreds or any amount of choices. This is the characteristic we have found
554by inspecting available pinmux hardware, and a necessary assumption since we
555expect pinmux drivers to present *all* possible function vs pin group mappings
556to the subsystem.
557
558
559Pinmux drivers
560==============
561
562The pinmux core takes care of preventing conflicts on pins and calling
563the pin controller driver to execute different settings.
564
565It is the responsibility of the pinmux driver to impose further restrictions
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000566(say for example infer electronic limitations due to load, etc.) to determine
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200567whether or not the requested function can actually be allowed, and in case it
568is possible to perform the requested mux setting, poke the hardware so that
569this happens.
570
571Pinmux drivers are required to supply a few callback functions, some are
Baruch Siach260463d2015-03-08 10:51:45 +0200572optional. Usually the set_mux() function is implemented, writing values into
573some certain registers to activate a certain mux setting for a certain pin.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200574
575A simple driver for the above example will work by setting bits 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4
576into some register named MUX to select a certain function with a certain
577group of pins would work something like this:
578

727In the example activating muxing 0 and 1 at the same time setting bits
7280 and 1, uses one pin in common so they would collide.
729
730The beauty of the pinmux subsystem is that since it keeps track of all
731pins and who is using them, it will already have denied an impossible
732request like that, so the driver does not need to worry about such
733things - when it gets a selector passed in, the pinmux subsystem makes
734sure no other device or GPIO assignment is already using the selected
735pins. Thus bits 0 and 1 in the control register will never be set at the
736same time.
737
738All the above functions are mandatory to implement for a pinmux driver.

Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100741Pin control interaction with the GPIO subsystem
742===============================================
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200743
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100744Note that the following implies that the use case is to use a certain pin
745from the Linux kernel using the API in <linux/gpio.h> with gpio_request()
746and similar functions. There are cases where you may be using something
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000747that your datasheet calls "GPIO mode", but actually is just an electrical
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100748configuration for a certain device. See the section below named
749"GPIO mode pitfalls" for more details on this scenario.
750
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100751The public pinmux API contains two functions named pinctrl_request_gpio()
752and pinctrl_free_gpio(). These two functions shall *ONLY* be called from
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100753gpiolib-based drivers as part of their gpio_request() and
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100754gpio_free() semantics. Likewise the pinctrl_gpio_direction_[input|output]
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100755shall only be called from within respective gpio_direction_[input|output]
756gpiolib implementation.
757
758NOTE that platforms and individual drivers shall *NOT* request GPIO pins to be
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100759controlled e.g. muxed in. Instead, implement a proper gpiolib driver and have
760that driver request proper muxing and other control for its pins.
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100761
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200762The function list could become long, especially if you can convert every
763individual pin into a GPIO pin independent of any other pins, and then try
764the approach to define every pin as a function.
765
766In this case, the function array would become 64 entries for each GPIO
767setting and then the device functions.
768
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100769For this reason there are two functions a pin control driver can implement
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100770to enable only GPIO on an individual pin: .gpio_request_enable() and
771.gpio_disable_free().
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200772
773This function will pass in the affected GPIO range identified by the pin
774controller core, so you know which GPIO pins are being affected by the request
775operation.
776
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100777If your driver needs to have an indication from the framework of whether the
778GPIO pin shall be used for input or output you can implement the
779.gpio_set_direction() function. As described this shall be called from the
780gpiolib driver and the affected GPIO range, pin offset and desired direction
781will be passed along to this function.
782
783Alternatively to using these special functions, it is fully allowed to use
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +0100784named functions for each GPIO pin, the pinctrl_request_gpio() will attempt to
Linus Walleij542e7042011-11-14 10:06:22 +0100785obtain the function "gpioN" where "N" is the global GPIO pin number if no
786special GPIO-handler is registered.

Linus Walleijeb6002d2013-06-25 16:17:15 +0200792Due to the naming conventions used by hardware engineers, where "GPIO"
793is taken to mean different things than what the kernel does, the developer
794may be confused by a datasheet talking about a pin being possible to set
795into "GPIO mode". It appears that what hardware engineers mean with
796"GPIO mode" is not necessarily the use case that is implied in the kernel
797interface <linux/gpio.h>: a pin that you grab from kernel code and then
798either listen for input or drive high/low to assert/deassert some
799external line.
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100800
801Rather hardware engineers think that "GPIO mode" means that you can
802software-control a few electrical properties of the pin that you would
803not be able to control if the pin was in some other mode, such as muxed in
804for a device.
805
Linus Walleijeb6002d2013-06-25 16:17:15 +0200806The GPIO portions of a pin and its relation to a certain pin controller
807configuration and muxing logic can be constructed in several ways. Here
808are two examples:
809
810(A)
811 pin config
812 logic regs
813 | +- SPI
814 Physical pins --- pad --- pinmux -+- I2C
815 | +- mmc
816 | +- GPIO
817 pin
818 multiplex
819 logic regs
820
821Here some electrical properties of the pin can be configured no matter
822whether the pin is used for GPIO or not. If you multiplex a GPIO onto a
823pin, you can also drive it high/low from "GPIO" registers.
824Alternatively, the pin can be controlled by a certain peripheral, while
825still applying desired pin config properties. GPIO functionality is thus
826orthogonal to any other device using the pin.
827
828In this arrangement the registers for the GPIO portions of the pin controller,
829or the registers for the GPIO hardware module are likely to reside in a
830separate memory range only intended for GPIO driving, and the register
831range dealing with pin config and pin multiplexing get placed into a
832different memory range and a separate section of the data sheet.
833
Sonic Zhangfa76a3d2015-04-09 11:13:07 +0800834A flag "strict" in struct pinctrl_desc is available to check and deny
835simultaneous access to the same pin from GPIO and pin multiplexing
836consumers on hardware of this type. The pinctrl driver should set this flag
837accordingly.
838
Linus Walleijeb6002d2013-06-25 16:17:15 +0200839(B)
840
841 pin config
842 logic regs
843 | +- SPI
844 Physical pins --- pad --- pinmux -+- I2C
845 | | +- mmc
846 | |
847 GPIO pin
848 multiplex
849 logic regs
850
851In this arrangement, the GPIO functionality can always be enabled, such that
852e.g. a GPIO input can be used to "spy" on the SPI/I2C/MMC signal while it is
853pulsed out. It is likely possible to disrupt the traffic on the pin by doing
854wrong things on the GPIO block, as it is never really disconnected. It is
855possible that the GPIO, pin config and pin multiplex registers are placed into
856the same memory range and the same section of the data sheet, although that
857need not be the case.
858
Sonic Zhangfa76a3d2015-04-09 11:13:07 +0800859In some pin controllers, although the physical pins are designed in the same
860way as (B), the GPIO function still can't be enabled at the same time as the
861peripheral functions. So again the "strict" flag should be set, denying
862simultaneous activation by GPIO and other muxed in devices.
863
Linus Walleijeb6002d2013-06-25 16:17:15 +0200864From a kernel point of view, however, these are different aspects of the
865hardware and shall be put into different subsystems:
866
867- Registers (or fields within registers) that control electrical
868 properties of the pin such as biasing and drive strength should be
869 exposed through the pinctrl subsystem, as "pin configuration" settings.
870
871- Registers (or fields within registers) that control muxing of signals
872 from various other HW blocks (e.g. I2C, MMC, or GPIO) onto pins should
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000873 be exposed through the pinctrl subsystem, as mux functions.
Linus Walleijeb6002d2013-06-25 16:17:15 +0200874
875- Registers (or fields within registers) that control GPIO functionality
876 such as setting a GPIO's output value, reading a GPIO's input value, or
877 setting GPIO pin direction should be exposed through the GPIO subsystem,
878 and if they also support interrupt capabilities, through the irqchip
879 abstraction.
880
881Depending on the exact HW register design, some functions exposed by the
882GPIO subsystem may call into the pinctrl subsystem in order to
883co-ordinate register settings across HW modules. In particular, this may
884be needed for HW with separate GPIO and pin controller HW modules, where
885e.g. GPIO direction is determined by a register in the pin controller HW
886module rather than the GPIO HW module.
887
888Electrical properties of the pin such as biasing and drive strength
889may be placed at some pin-specific register in all cases or as part
890of the GPIO register in case (B) especially. This doesn't mean that such
891properties necessarily pertain to what the Linux kernel calls "GPIO".
892
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100893Example: a pin is usually muxed in to be used as a UART TX line. But during
894system sleep, we need to put this pin into "GPIO mode" and ground it.
895
896If you make a 1-to-1 map to the GPIO subsystem for this pin, you may start
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000897to think that you need to come up with something really complex, that the
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100898pin shall be used for UART TX and GPIO at the same time, that you will grab
899a pin control handle and set it to a certain state to enable UART TX to be
900muxed in, then twist it over to GPIO mode and use gpio_direction_output()
901to drive it low during sleep, then mux it over to UART TX again when you
902wake up and maybe even gpio_request/gpio_free as part of this cycle. This
903all gets very complicated.
904
905The solution is to not think that what the datasheet calls "GPIO mode"
906has to be handled by the <linux/gpio.h> interface. Instead view this as
907a certain pin config setting. Look in e.g. <linux/pinctrl/pinconf-generic.h>
908and you find this in the documentation:
909
910 PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT: this will configure the pin in output, use argument
911 1 to indicate high level, argument 0 to indicate low level.
912
913So it is perfectly possible to push a pin into "GPIO mode" and drive the
914line low as part of the usual pin control map. So for example your UART
915driver may look like this:
916
917#include <linux/pinctrl/consumer.h>
918
919struct pinctrl *pinctrl;
920struct pinctrl_state *pins_default;
921struct pinctrl_state *pins_sleep;
922
923pins_default = pinctrl_lookup_state(uap->pinctrl, PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT);
924pins_sleep = pinctrl_lookup_state(uap->pinctrl, PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP);
925
926/* Normal mode */
927retval = pinctrl_select_state(pinctrl, pins_default);
928/* Sleep mode */
929retval = pinctrl_select_state(pinctrl, pins_sleep);
930
931And your machine configuration may look like this:
932--------------------------------------------------
933
934static unsigned long uart_default_mode[] = {
935 PIN_CONF_PACKED(PIN_CONFIG_DRIVE_PUSH_PULL, 0),
936};
937
938static unsigned long uart_sleep_mode[] = {
939 PIN_CONF_PACKED(PIN_CONFIG_OUTPUT, 0),
940};
941
Sachin Kamat2868a072013-08-08 10:50:59 +0530942static struct pinctrl_map pinmap[] __initdata = {
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100943 PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo",
944 "u0_group", "u0"),
945 PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo",
946 "UART_TX_PIN", uart_default_mode),
947 PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP, "pinctrl-foo",
948 "u0_group", "gpio-mode"),
949 PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("uart", PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP, "pinctrl-foo",
950 "UART_TX_PIN", uart_sleep_mode),
951};
952
953foo_init(void) {
954 pinctrl_register_mappings(pinmap, ARRAY_SIZE(pinmap));
955}
956
957Here the pins we want to control are in the "u0_group" and there is some
958function called "u0" that can be enabled on this group of pins, and then
959everything is UART business as usual. But there is also some function
960named "gpio-mode" that can be mapped onto the same pins to move them into
961GPIO mode.
962
963This will give the desired effect without any bogus interaction with the
964GPIO subsystem. It is just an electrical configuration used by that device
965when going to sleep, it might imply that the pin is set into something the
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000966datasheet calls "GPIO mode", but that is not the point: it is still used
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100967by that UART device to control the pins that pertain to that very UART
968driver, putting them into modes needed by the UART. GPIO in the Linux
969kernel sense are just some 1-bit line, and is a different use case.
970
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000971How the registers are poked to attain the push or pull, and output low
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100972configuration and the muxing of the "u0" or "gpio-mode" group onto these
973pins is a question for the driver.
974
975Some datasheets will be more helpful and refer to the "GPIO mode" as
976"low power mode" rather than anything to do with GPIO. This often means
977the same thing electrically speaking, but in this latter case the
978software engineers will usually quickly identify that this is some
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +0000979specific muxing or configuration rather than anything related to the GPIO
Linus Walleijfdba2d02013-03-15 12:01:20 +0100980API.

Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -0700983Board/machine configuration
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200984==================================
985
986Boards and machines define how a certain complete running system is put
987together, including how GPIOs and devices are muxed, how regulators are
988constrained and how the clock tree looks. Of course pinmux settings are also
989part of this.
990
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -0700991A pin controller configuration for a machine looks pretty much like a simple
992regulator configuration, so for the example array above we want to enable i2c
993and spi on the second function mapping:
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200994
995#include <linux/pinctrl/machine.h>
996
Uwe Kleine-König122dbe72012-03-30 22:04:51 +0200997static const struct pinctrl_map mapping[] __initconst = {
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +0200998 {
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -0700999 .dev_name = "foo-spi.0",
Stephen Warren110e4ec2012-03-01 18:48:33 -07001000 .name = PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT,
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001001 .type = PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP,
Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001002 .ctrl_dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001003 .data.mux.function = "spi0",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001004 },
1005 {
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -07001006 .dev_name = "foo-i2c.0",
Stephen Warren110e4ec2012-03-01 18:48:33 -07001007 .name = PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT,

Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001009 .ctrl_dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001010 .data.mux.function = "i2c0",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001011 },
1012 {
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -07001013 .dev_name = "foo-mmc.0",
Stephen Warren110e4ec2012-03-01 18:48:33 -07001014 .name = PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT,
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001015 .type = PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP,

Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001018 },
1019};
1020
1021The dev_name here matches to the unique device name that can be used to look
1022up the device struct (just like with clockdev or regulators). The function name
1023must match a function provided by the pinmux driver handling this pin range.
1024
1025As you can see we may have several pin controllers on the system and thus
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +00001026we need to specify which one of them contains the functions we wish to map.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001027
1028You register this pinmux mapping to the pinmux subsystem by simply:
1029
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +01001030 ret = pinctrl_register_mappings(mapping, ARRAY_SIZE(mapping));
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001031
1032Since the above construct is pretty common there is a helper macro to make
Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001033it even more compact which assumes you want to use pinctrl-foo and position
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +020010340 for mapping, for example:
1035
Sachin Kamat2868a072013-08-08 10:50:59 +05301036static struct pinctrl_map mapping[] __initdata = {
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001037 PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("foo-i2c.o", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo", NULL, "i2c0"),
1038};
1039
1040The mapping table may also contain pin configuration entries. It's common for
1041each pin/group to have a number of configuration entries that affect it, so
1042the table entries for configuration reference an array of config parameters
1043and values. An example using the convenience macros is shown below:
1044
1045static unsigned long i2c_grp_configs[] = {
1046 FOO_PIN_DRIVEN,
1047 FOO_PIN_PULLUP,
1048};
1049
1050static unsigned long i2c_pin_configs[] = {
1051 FOO_OPEN_COLLECTOR,
1052 FOO_SLEW_RATE_SLOW,
1053};
1054
Sachin Kamat2868a072013-08-08 10:50:59 +05301055static struct pinctrl_map mapping[] __initdata = {
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001056 PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP("foo-i2c.0", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo", "i2c0", "i2c0"),
Daniel Mackd1a83d32012-08-09 21:02:19 +02001057 PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_GROUP("foo-i2c.0", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo", "i2c0", i2c_grp_configs),
1058 PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("foo-i2c.0", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo", "i2c0scl", i2c_pin_configs),
1059 PIN_MAP_CONFIGS_PIN("foo-i2c.0", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT, "pinctrl-foo", "i2c0sda", i2c_pin_configs),
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001060};
1061
1062Finally, some devices expect the mapping table to contain certain specific
1063named states. When running on hardware that doesn't need any pin controller
1064configuration, the mapping table must still contain those named states, in
1065order to explicitly indicate that the states were provided and intended to
1066be empty. Table entry macro PIN_MAP_DUMMY_STATE serves the purpose of defining
1067a named state without causing any pin controller to be programmed:
1068
Sachin Kamat2868a072013-08-08 10:50:59 +05301069static struct pinctrl_map mapping[] __initdata = {
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001070 PIN_MAP_DUMMY_STATE("foo-i2c.0", PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT),
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001071};
1072
1073
1074Complex mappings
1075================
1076
1077As it is possible to map a function to different groups of pins an optional
1078.group can be specified like this:
1079
1080...
1081{
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -07001082 .dev_name = "foo-spi.0",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001083 .name = "spi0-pos-A",
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001084 .type = PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP,
Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001085 .ctrl_dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001086 .function = "spi0",
1087 .group = "spi0_0_grp",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001088},
1089{
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -07001090 .dev_name = "foo-spi.0",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001091 .name = "spi0-pos-B",
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001092 .type = PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP,
Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001093 .ctrl_dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001094 .function = "spi0",
1095 .group = "spi0_1_grp",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001096},
1097...
1098
1099This example mapping is used to switch between two positions for spi0 at
1100runtime, as described further below under the heading "Runtime pinmuxing".
1101
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001102Further it is possible for one named state to affect the muxing of several
1103groups of pins, say for example in the mmc0 example above, where you can
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001104additively expand the mmc0 bus from 2 to 4 to 8 pins. If we want to use all
1105three groups for a total of 2+2+4 = 8 pins (for an 8-bit MMC bus as is the
1106case), we define a mapping like this:
1107
1108...
1109{

Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +02001177Pin control requests from drivers
1178=================================
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001179
Linus Walleijab780292013-01-22 10:56:14 -07001180When a device driver is about to probe the device core will automatically
1181attempt to issue pinctrl_get_select_default() on these devices.
1182This way driver writers do not need to add any of the boilerplate code
1183of the type found below. However when doing fine-grained state selection
1184and not using the "default" state, you may have to do some device driver
1185handling of the pinctrl handles and states.
1186
1187So if you just want to put the pins for a certain device into the default
1188state and be done with it, there is nothing you need to do besides
1189providing the proper mapping table. The device core will take care of
1190the rest.
1191
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +01001192Generally it is discouraged to let individual drivers get and enable pin
1193control. So if possible, handle the pin control in platform code or some other
1194place where you have access to all the affected struct device * pointers. In
1195some cases where a driver needs to e.g. switch between different mux mappings
1196at runtime this is not possible.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001197
Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +02001198A typical case is if a driver needs to switch bias of pins from normal
1199operation and going to sleep, moving from the PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT to
1200PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP at runtime, re-biasing or even re-muxing pins to save
1201current in sleep mode.
1202
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +01001203A driver may request a certain control state to be activated, usually just the
1204default state like this:
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001205

1221 /* FIXME: clean up "foo" here */
1222 return PTR_ERR(foo->p);
1223 }

Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001225 foo->s = pinctrl_lookup_state(foo->p, PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT);

1234 return ret;
1235 }
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001236}
1237
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001238This get/lookup/select/put sequence can just as well be handled by bus drivers
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001239if you don't want each and every driver to handle it and you know the
1240arrangement on your bus.
1241
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001242The semantics of the pinctrl APIs are:
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001243
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001244- pinctrl_get() is called in process context to obtain a handle to all pinctrl
1245 information for a given client device. It will allocate a struct from the
1246 kernel memory to hold the pinmux state. All mapping table parsing or similar
1247 slow operations take place within this API.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001248
Stephen Warren6d4ca1f2012-04-16 10:51:00 -06001249- devm_pinctrl_get() is a variant of pinctrl_get() that causes pinctrl_put()
1250 to be called automatically on the retrieved pointer when the associated
1251 device is removed. It is recommended to use this function over plain
1252 pinctrl_get().
1253
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001254- pinctrl_lookup_state() is called in process context to obtain a handle to a
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +00001255 specific state for a client device. This operation may be slow, too.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001256
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001257- pinctrl_select_state() programs pin controller hardware according to the
Laszlo Papp4dfb0bd2014-01-13 19:00:14 +00001258 definition of the state as given by the mapping table. In theory, this is a
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001259 fast-path operation, since it only involved blasting some register settings
1260 into hardware. However, note that some pin controllers may have their
1261 registers on a slow/IRQ-based bus, so client devices should not assume they
1262 can call pinctrl_select_state() from non-blocking contexts.
1263
1264- pinctrl_put() frees all information associated with a pinctrl handle.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001265
Stephen Warren6d4ca1f2012-04-16 10:51:00 -06001266- devm_pinctrl_put() is a variant of pinctrl_put() that may be used to
1267 explicitly destroy a pinctrl object returned by devm_pinctrl_get().
1268 However, use of this function will be rare, due to the automatic cleanup
1269 that will occur even without calling it.
1270
1271 pinctrl_get() must be paired with a plain pinctrl_put().
1272 pinctrl_get() may not be paired with devm_pinctrl_put().
1273 devm_pinctrl_get() can optionally be paired with devm_pinctrl_put().
1274 devm_pinctrl_get() may not be paired with plain pinctrl_put().
1275
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +01001276Usually the pin control core handled the get/put pair and call out to the
1277device drivers bookkeeping operations, like checking available functions and
Baruch Siachb18104c2015-03-08 10:51:46 +02001278the associated pins, whereas select_state pass on to the pin controller
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001279driver which takes care of activating and/or deactivating the mux setting by
1280quickly poking some registers.
1281
Stephen Warren6d4ca1f2012-04-16 10:51:00 -06001282The pins are allocated for your device when you issue the devm_pinctrl_get()
1283call, after this you should be able to see this in the debugfs listing of all
1284pins.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001285
Linus Walleijc05127c2012-04-10 10:00:38 +02001286NOTE: the pinctrl system will return -EPROBE_DEFER if it cannot find the
1287requested pinctrl handles, for example if the pinctrl driver has not yet
1288registered. Thus make sure that the error path in your driver gracefully
1289cleans up and is ready to retry the probing later in the startup process.

Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +02001292Drivers needing both pin control and GPIOs
1293==========================================
1294
1295Again, it is discouraged to let drivers lookup and select pin control states
1296themselves, but again sometimes this is unavoidable.
1297
1298So say that your driver is fetching its resources like this:
1299
1300#include <linux/pinctrl/consumer.h>
1301#include <linux/gpio.h>
1302
1303struct pinctrl *pinctrl;
1304int gpio;
1305
1306pinctrl = devm_pinctrl_get_select_default(&dev);
1307gpio = devm_gpio_request(&dev, 14, "foo");
1308
1309Here we first request a certain pin state and then request GPIO 14 to be
1310used. If you're using the subsystems orthogonally like this, you should
1311nominally always get your pinctrl handle and select the desired pinctrl
1312state BEFORE requesting the GPIO. This is a semantic convention to avoid
1313situations that can be electrically unpleasant, you will certainly want to
1314mux in and bias pins in a certain way before the GPIO subsystems starts to
1315deal with them.
1316
Linus Walleijab780292013-01-22 10:56:14 -07001317The above can be hidden: using the device core, the pinctrl core may be
1318setting up the config and muxing for the pins right before the device is
1319probing, nevertheless orthogonal to the GPIO subsystem.
Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +02001320
1321But there are also situations where it makes sense for the GPIO subsystem
James Hogan7bbc87b2013-05-28 10:31:48 +01001322to communicate directly with the pinctrl subsystem, using the latter as a
1323back-end. This is when the GPIO driver may call out to the functions
Linus Walleijc31a00c2012-09-10 17:22:00 +02001324described in the section "Pin control interaction with the GPIO subsystem"
1325above. This only involves per-pin multiplexing, and will be completely
1326hidden behind the gpio_*() function namespace. In this case, the driver
1327need not interact with the pin control subsystem at all.
1328
1329If a pin control driver and a GPIO driver is dealing with the same pins
1330and the use cases involve multiplexing, you MUST implement the pin controller
1331as a back-end for the GPIO driver like this, unless your hardware design
1332is such that the GPIO controller can override the pin controller's
1333multiplexing state through hardware without the need to interact with the
1334pin control system.
1335
1336
Linus Walleije93bcee2012-02-09 07:23:28 +01001337System pin control hogging
1338==========================
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001339
Stephen Warren1681f5a2012-02-22 14:25:58 -07001340Pin control map entries can be hogged by the core when the pin controller
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001341is registered. This means that the core will attempt to call pinctrl_get(),
1342lookup_state() and select_state() on it immediately after the pin control
1343device has been registered.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001344
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001345This occurs for mapping table entries where the client device name is equal
1346to the pin controller device name, and the state name is PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT.
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001347
1348{
Stephen Warren806d3142012-02-23 17:04:39 -07001349 .dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Stephen Warren46919ae2012-03-01 18:48:32 -07001350 .name = PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT,
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001351 .type = PIN_MAP_TYPE_MUX_GROUP,
Stephen Warren51cd24e2011-12-09 16:59:05 -07001352 .ctrl_dev_name = "pinctrl-foo",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001353 .function = "power_func",
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001354},
1355
1356Since it may be common to request the core to hog a few always-applicable
1357mux settings on the primary pin controller, there is a convenience macro for
1358this:
1359
Stephen Warren1e2082b2012-03-02 13:05:48 -07001360PIN_MAP_MUX_GROUP_HOG_DEFAULT("pinctrl-foo", NULL /* group */, "power_func")
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001361
1362This gives the exact same result as the above construction.
1363
1364
1365Runtime pinmuxing
1366=================
1367
1368It is possible to mux a certain function in and out at runtime, say to move
1369an SPI port from one set of pins to another set of pins. Say for example for
1370spi0 in the example above, we expose two different groups of pins for the same
1371function, but with different named in the mapping as described under
Stephen Warren6e5e9592012-03-02 13:05:47 -07001372"Advanced mapping" above. So that for an SPI device, we have two states named
1373"pos-A" and "pos-B".
Linus Walleij2744e8a2011-05-02 20:50:54 +02001374
Baruch Siachb18104c2015-03-08 10:51:46 +02001375This snippet first initializes a state object for both groups (in foo_probe()),
1376then muxes the function in the pins defined by group A, and finally muxes it in
1377on the pins defined by group B:
