gpiolib: remove unused gpio_cansleep()

2023-06-13T14:49:23+00:00

There is not a single user in the entire kernel of this deprecated API, kill it for good. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Reviewed-by: Yanteng Si Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

gpiolib: Kill unused GPIOF_OPEN_*

Documentation: gpio: Input mode is not true Hi-Z

2023-03-15T10:06:38+00:00

The true Hi-Z (a.k.a. high impedance) mode is when pin is completely disconnected from the chip. This includes input buffer as well. Nevertheless, some hardware may not support that mode and they are considering input only as Hi-Z, but more precisely it is an equivalent to that, in electronics it's basically "an antenna mode". Sligthly correct documentation to take the above into consideration. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

gpiolib: remove legacy gpio_export()

2023-03-06T10:33:01+00:00

There are only a handful of users of gpio_export() and related functions. As these are just wrappers around the modern gpiod_export() helper, remove the wrappers and open-code the gpio_to_desc in all callers to shrink the legacy API.

gpiolib: remove gpio_set_debounce()

2023-03-06T10:33:01+00:00

gpio_set_debounce() only has a single user, which is trivially converted to gpiod_set_debounce(). Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko

gpio: Remove unused and obsoleted irq_to_gpio()

2023-01-30T14:55:29+00:00

irq_to_gpio() is legacy and unused API, remove it for good. This leaves gpio_to_irq() as it's used yet in many places. Nevertheless, removal of its counterpart is a good signal to whoever even trying to consider using them that do not.

Documentation: gpio: Remove text about ARCH_NR_GPIOS

2022-10-17T09:03:20+00:00

ARCH_NR_GPIOS have been removed, clean up the documentation. After this patch, the only place when ARCH_NR_GPIOS remains is in translations/zh_CN/gpio.txt and translations/zh_TW/gpio.txt. I don't have the skills to update that, anyway those two files are already out of sync as they are still mentionning ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB which was removed by commit 65053e1a7743 ("gpio: delete ARCH_[WANTS_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB") Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This was a moderately busy cycle for documentation, but nothing all that earth-shaking: - More Chinese translations, and an update to the Italian translations. The Japanese, Korean, and traditional Chinese translations are more-or-less unmaintained at this point, instead. - Some build-system performance improvements. - The removal of the archaic submitting-drivers.rst document, with the movement of what useful material that remained into other docs. - Improvements to sphinx-pre-install to, hopefully, give more useful suggestions. - A number of build-warning fixes Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, updates, and more" * tag 'docs-6.0' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (92 commits) docs: efi-stub: Fix paths for x86 / arm stubs Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of sched-stats to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of pci to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of pci-iov-howto to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of usage to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of testing-overview to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of sparse to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of kasan to 5.19-rc8 Docs/zh_CN: Update the translation of iio_configfs to 5.19-rc8 doc:it_IT: align Italian documentation docs: Remove spurious tag from admin-guide/mm/overcommit-accounting.rst Documentation: process: Update email client instructions for Thunderbird docs: ABI: correct QEMU fw_cfg spec path doc/zh_CN: remove submitting-driver reference from docs docs: zh_TW: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: zh_CN: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: ko_KR: howto: remove reference to removed submitting-drivers docs: ja_JP: howto: remove reference to removed submitting-drivers docs: it_IT: align to submitting-drivers removal docs: process: remove outdated submitting-drivers.rst ...
