See the definitions in + arch/arm/plat-samsung/include/plat/gpio-cfg.h: + + s3c2410_gpio_setpin() gpio_set_value() or gpio_direction_output() + s3c2410_gpio_getpin() gpio_get_value() or gpio_direction_input() + s3c2410_gpio_getirq() gpio_to_irq() + s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin() s3c_gpio_cfgpin() + s3c2410_gpio_getcfg() s3c_gpio_getcfg() + s3c2410_gpio_pullup() s3c_gpio_setpull() + + +GPIOLIB conversion +------------------ + +If you need to convert your board or driver to use gpiolib from the phased +out 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() changes 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 replaceable 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. + + +Headers +------- + + See arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/include/mach/regs-gpio.h for the list + of GPIO pins, and the configuration values for them. This + is included by using #include + + +PIN Numbers +----------- + + Each pin has an unique number associated with it in regs-gpio.h, + e.g. S3C2410_GPA(0) or S3C2410_GPF(1). These defines are used to tell + the GPIO functions which pin is to be used. + + With the conversion to gpiolib, there is no longer a direct conversion + from gpio pin number to register base address as in earlier kernels. This + is due to the number space required for newer SoCs where the later + GPIOs are not contiguous. + + +Configuring a pin +----------------- + + The following function allows the configuration of a given pin to + be changed. + + void s3c_gpio_cfgpin(unsigned int pin, unsigned int function); + + e.g.: + + s3c_gpio_cfgpin(S3C2410_GPA(0), S3C_GPIO_SFN(1)); + s3c_gpio_cfgpin(S3C2410_GPE(8), S3C_GPIO_SFN(2)); + + which would turn GPA(0) into the lowest Address line A0, and set + GPE(8) to be connected to the SDIO/MMC controller's SDDAT1 line. + + +Reading the current configuration +--------------------------------- + + The current configuration of a pin can be read by using standard + gpiolib function: + + s3c_gpio_getcfg(unsigned int pin); + + The return value will be from the same set of values which can be + passed to s3c_gpio_cfgpin(). + + +Configuring a pull-up resistor +------------------------------ + + A large proportion of the GPIO pins on the S3C2410 can have weak + pull-up resistors enabled. This can be configured by the following + function: + + void s3c_gpio_setpull(unsigned int pin, unsigned int to); + + Where the to value is S3C_GPIO_PULL_NONE to set the pull-up off, + and S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP to enable the specified pull-up. Any other + values are currently undefined. + + +Getting and setting the state of a PIN +-------------------------------------- + + These calls are now implemented by the relevant gpiolib calls, convert + your board or driver to use gpiolib. + + +Getting the IRQ number associated with a PIN +-------------------------------------------- + + A standard gpiolib function can map the given pin number to an IRQ + number to pass to the IRQ system. + + int gpio_to_irq(unsigned int pin); + + Note, not all pins have an IRQ. + + +Author +------- + +Ben Dooks, 03 October 2004 +Copyright 2004 Ben Dooks, Simtec Electronics -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
