Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
"There are no new drivers this time but several changes to the core
GPIO framework and various driver updates.
This release cycle, we're starting a relatively straightforward but
tedious rework of the GPIO consumer API: for historical reasons, the
gpiod_set_value() variants would return void. Not only that but the
GPIO provider interface does not even allow drivers to return a value
to GPIO core. This is because initial GPIO controllers would be MMIO
based and could not fail. We've had I2C, SPI and USB controllers for
years too but no way of indicating failures to callers.
This changes the consumer interface, adds new provider callbacks and
starts converting the drivers under drivers/gpio/ to using them. Once
this gets upstream, we'll keep on converting GPIO drivers that live
elsewhere and once there are no more users of the old callbacks, we'll
remove them and rename the new ones to the previous name. I imagine
the last step would happen in one sweeping change like what you did
for the remove_new() -> remove() renaming.
We've also addressed an issue where invalid return values from GPIO
drivers would get propagated to user-space by adding some
GPIO-core-level sanitization. Again: not a complex change but way
overdue.
Other than that: lots of driver and core refactoring, DT-bindings
changes and some other minor changes like coding style fixes or header
reordering.
GPIO core:
- add sanitization of return values of GPIO provider callbacks so
that invalid ones don't get propagated to user-space
- add new variants of the line setter callbacks for GPIO providers
that return an integer and allow to indicate driver errors to the
GPIO core
- change the interface of all gpiod_set_value() variants to return an
integer thus becoming able to indicate failures in the underlying
layer to callers
- drop unneeded ERR_CAST in gpiolib-acpi
- use for_each_if() where applicable
- provide gpiod_multi_set_value_cansleep() as a new, simpler
interface to gpiod_set_array_value_cansleep() and use it across
several drivers treewide
- reduce the number of atomic reads of the descriptor flags in
gpiolib debugfs code
- simplify for_each_hwgpio_in_range() and
for_each_requested_gpio_in_range()
- add support for three-cell GPIO specifiers in GPIO OF code
- don't build HTE (hardware timestamp engine) GPIO code with the HTE
subsystem disabled in Kconfig
- unduplicate calls to gpiod_direction_input_nonotify()
- rework the handling of the valid_mask property of GPIO chips: don't
allow drivers to set it as it should only be handled by GPIO core
and start actually enforcing it in GPIO core for *all* drivers, not
only the ones implementing a custom request() callback
- get the `ngpios` property from the fwnode of the GPIO chip, not its
device in order to handle multi-bank GPIO chips
Driver improvements:
- convert a part of the GPIO drivers under drivers/gpio/ to using the
new value setter callbacks
- convert several drivers to using automatic lock guards from
cleanup.h
- allow building gpio-bt8xx with COMPILE_TEST=y
- refactor gpio-74x164 (use devres, cleanup helpers, __counted_by()
and bits.h macros)
- refactor gpio-latch (use generic device properties, lock guards and
some local variables for better readability)
- refactor gpio-xilinx (improve the usage of the bitmap API)
- support multiple virtual GPIO controller instances in gpio-virtio
- allow gpio-regmap to use the standard `ngpios` property from
GPIOLIB
- factor out the common code for synchronous probing of virtual GPIO
devices into its own library
- use str_enable_disable(), str_high_low() and other string helpers
where applicable
- extend the gpio-mmio abstraction layer to allow calling into the
pinctrl back-end when setting direction
- convert gpio-vf610 to using the gpio-mmio library
- use more devres in gpio-adnp
- add support for reset-gpios in gpio-pcf857x
- add support for more models to gpio-loongson-64bit
DT bindings:
- add new compatibles to gpio-vf610 and gpio-loongson
- add missing gpio-ranges property to gpio-mvebu
- add reset-gpios to nxp,pcf8575
- enable gpio-hog parsing in ast2400-gpio
Misc:
- coding style improvements
- kerneldoc fixes
- includes reordering
- updates to the TODO list"
