GPIOLIB conversion
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to convert your board or driver to use gpiolib from the exiting
|
||||
s3c2410 api, then here are some notes on the process.
|
||||
|
||||
1) If your board is exclusively using an GPIO, say to control peripheral
|
||||
power, then it will require to claim the gpio with gpio_request() before
|
||||
it can use it.
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to check the return value, with at least WARN_ON()
|
||||
during initialisation.
|
||||
|
||||
2) The s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin() can be directly replaced with s3c_gpio_cfgpin()
|
||||
as they have the same arguments, and can either take the pin specific
|
||||
values, or the more generic special-function-number arguments.
|
||||
|
||||
3) s3c2410_gpio_pullup() changs have the problem that whilst the
|
||||
s3c2410_gpio_pullup(x, 1) can be easily translated to the
|
||||
s3c_gpio_setpull(x, S3C_GPIO_PULL_NONE), the s3c2410_gpio_pullup(x, 0)
|
||||
are not so easy.
|
||||
|
||||
The s3c2410_gpio_pullup(x, 0) case enables the pull-up (or in the case
|
||||
of some of the devices, a pull-down) and as such the new API distinguishes
|
||||
between the UP and DOWN case. There is currently no 'just turn on' setting
|
||||
which may be required if this becomes a problem.
|
||||
|
||||
4) s3c2410_gpio_setpin() can be replaced by gpio_set_value(), the old call
|
||||
does not implicitly configure the relevant gpio to output. The gpio
|
||||
direction should be changed before using gpio_set_value().
|
||||
|
||||
5) s3c2410_gpio_getpin() is replaceable by gpio_get_value() if the pin
|
||||
has been set to input. It is currently unknown what the behaviour is
|
||||
when using gpio_get_value() on an output pin (s3c2410_gpio_getpin
|
||||
would return the value the pin is supposed to be outputting).
|
||||
|
||||
6) s3c2410_gpio_getirq() should be directly replacable with the
|
||||
gpio_to_irq() call.
|
||||
|
||||
The s3c2410_gpio and gpio_ calls have always operated on the same gpio
|
||||
numberspace, so there is no problem with converting the gpio numbering
|
||||
between the calls.
