Thanks for working on this. Here are my thoughts on how to improve
it:
- I'm wary on the value translation of the set and get, you
don't need that at the moment, correct? I'd concentrate on
the direction for now.
- I'd add a xlate_direction(), see below for an example
- because we can then handle the value too, we don't need the
invert handling in the {set,get}_direction. drop it there
and handle it in a simple_xlat. In gpio_regmap,
store "reg_dir_base" and "invert_direction", derived from
config->reg_dir_in_base and config->reg_dir_out_base.
static int gpio_regmap_simple_xlat_direction(struct gpio_regmap *gpio
unsigend int base,
unsigned int offset,
unsigned int *dir_out,
unsigned int *dir_in)
{
unsigned int line = offset % gpio->ngpio_per_reg;
unsigned int mask = BIT(line);
if (!gpio->invert_direction) {
*dir_out = mask;
*dir_in = 0;
} else {
*dir_out = 0;
*dir_in = mask;
}
return 0;
}
And in the {set,get}_direction() you can then check both
values and convert it from or to GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_{OUT,IN}.
Thoughts?
