Subject: [patch/rfc 2.6.25-git v2] gpio: sysfs interface
Simple sysfs interface for GPIOs.
/sys/class/gpio
/control ... to request a GPIO be imported or returned
/gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
/value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
/direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low
/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
/base ... (r/o) same as N
/label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
/ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1)
GPIOs may be exported by kernel code using gpio_export(), which should
be most useful for driver debugging. Userspace may also ask that they
be imported by writing to the sysfs control file, helping to cope with
incomplete board support:
echo "23" > /sys/class/gpio/control
... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use
/sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to configure it.
echo "-23" > /sys/class/gpio/control
... will gpio_free(23)
The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.
This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers
initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device
instead of being "virtual" devices. The (few) gpio_chip providers which
have such a device node have been updated. (Some also needed to update
their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added.)
Based on a patch from Trent Piepho <tpiepho@...escale.com>, and comments
from various folk including most recently Hartley Sweeten and Ben Nizette.

Notable updates from previous version: doc update, mutex protection
for sysfs access, export basic gpio_chip info ("what GPIOs exist"),
depend on new sysfs_streq() call, simplified control file syntax.

+once all the necessary resources are available, and remove them later when
+the GPIO controller device becomes unavailable.
+
+
+Sysfs Interface for Userspace (OPTIONAL)
+========================================
+Platforms which use the "gpiolib" implementors framework may choose to
+configure a sysfs user interface to GPIOs. This is different from the
+debugfs interface, since it provides control over GPIO direction and
+value instead of just showing a gpio state summary. Plus, it would be
+present on production systems without debugging support.
+
+Given approprate hardware documentation for the system, userspace could
+know for example that GPIO #23 controls the write protect line used to
+protect boot loader segments in flash memory. System upgrade procedures
+may need to temporarily remove that protection, first importing a GPIO,
+then changing its output state, then updating the code before re-enabling
+the write protection. In normal use, GPIO #23 would never be touched,
+and the kernel would have no need to know about it.
+
+Again depending on appropriate hardware documentation, on some systems
+userspace GPIO can be used to determine system configuration data that
+standard kernels won't know about. And for some tasks, simple userspace
+GPIO drivers could be all that the system really needs.
+
+
+Paths in Sysfs
+--------------
+There are three kinds of entry in /sys/class/gpio: GPIO controllers
+("gpio_chip" instances), GPIOs themselves, and a control interface
+used to import GPIOs to userspace (and later return them).
+
+The control interface is write-only. Userspace may ask to import
+control of a GPIO by writing its number to the control file:
+
+ /sys/class/gpio/control
+
+Write negative numbers to release userspace control. For example,
+"echo 19 > control" to create a "gpio19" node, which can then be
+configured and modified. Then "echo -19 > control" to remove the
+userspace controls for that signal.
+
+GPIO signals have paths like /sys/class/gpio/gpio42/ (for GPIO #42)
+and have the following read/write attributes:
+
+ /sys/class/gpio/gpioN/
+
+ "direction" ... reads as either "in" or "out". This value may
+ normally be written. Writing as "out" defaults to
+ initializing the value as low. To ensure glitch free
+ operation, values "low" and "high" may be written to
+ configure the GPIO as an output with that initial value.
+
+ "value" ... reads as either 0 (low) or 1 (high). If the GPIO
+ is configured as an output, this value may be written;
+ any nonzero value is treated as high.
+
+GPIO controllers have paths like /sys/class/gpio/chipchip42/ (for the
+controller implementing GPIOs starting at #42) and have the following
+read-only attributes:
+
+ /sys/class/gpio/gpiochipN/
+
+ "base" ... same as N, the first GPIO managed by this chip
+
+ "label" ... provided for diagnostics (not unique)
+
+ "ngpio" ... how many GPIOs this manges (N to N + ngpio - 1)
+
+Board documentation should in most cases cover what GPIOs are used
+for what purposes. However, those numbers are not always stable;
+GPIOs on a daughterboard might be different depending on the base
+board being used, or other cards in the stack. In such cases, you
+may need to use the gpiochip nodes to determine th correct GPIO
+number to use for a given signal.
+
+
+Exporting from Kernel code
+--------------------------
+Kernel code can explicitly manage exports of GPIOs which have already been
+requested using gpio_request():
+
+ /* export the GPIO to userspace */
+ int gpio_export(unsigned gpio);
+
+ /* reverse gpio_export() */
+ void gpio_unexport();
+
+When a kernel driver has requested a GPIO, it may only be made available
+in the sysfs interface by gpio_export(). This prevents userspace code
+from clobbering important state.
+
+This explicit exporting can help with debugging (by making some kinds
+of experiments easier), or can provide an always-there interface that's
+suitable for documenting as part of a board support package.
