This function has a few notable +shortcomings, which led to its deprecation and replacement by gpiomux: + +The 'disable' parameter: Setting the second parameter to +gpio_tlmm_config to GPIO_CFG_DISABLE tells the peripheral +processor in charge of the subsystem to perform a look-up into a +low-power table and apply the low-power/sleep setting for the pin. +As the msm family evolved this became problematic. Not all pins +have sleep settings, not all peripheral processors will accept requests +to apply said sleep settings, and not all msm targets have their gpio +subsystems managed by a peripheral processor. In order to get consistent +behavior on all targets, drivers are forced to ignore this parameter, +rendering it useless. + +The 'direction' flag: for all mux-settings other than raw-gpio (0), +the output-enable bit of a gpio is hard-wired to a known +input (usually VDD or ground). For those settings, the direction flag +is meaningless at best, and deceptive at worst. In addition, using the +direction flag to change output-enable (OE) directly can cause trouble in +gpiolib, which has no visibility into gpio direction changes made +in this way. Direction control in gpio mode should be made through gpiolib. + +Key Features of gpiomux +======================= + +- A consistent interface across all generations of msm. Drivers can expect +the same results on every target. +- gpiomux plays nicely with gpiolib. Functions that should belong to gpiolib +are left to gpiolib and not duplicated here. gpiomux is written with the +intent that gpio_chips will call gpiomux reference-counting methods +from their request() and free() hooks, providing full integration. +- Tabular configuration. Instead of having to call gpio_tlmm_config +hundreds of times, gpio configuration is placed in a single table. +- Per-gpio sleep. Each gpio is individually reference counted, allowing only +those lines which are in use to be put in high-power states. +- 0 means 'do nothing': all flags are designed so that the default memset-zero +equates to a sensible default of 'no configuration', preventing users +from having to provide hundreds of 'no-op' configs for unused or +unwanted lines. + +Usage +===== + +To use gpiomux, provide configuration information for relevant gpio lines +in the msm_gpiomux_configs table. Since a 0 equates to "unconfigured", +only those lines to be managed by gpiomux need to be specified. Here +is a completely fictional example: + +struct msm_gpiomux_config msm_gpiomux_configs[GPIOMUX_NGPIOS] = { + [12] = { + .active = GPIOMUX_VALID | GPIOMUX_DRV_8MA | GPIOMUX_FUNC_1, + .suspended = GPIOMUX_VALID | GPIOMUX_PULL_DOWN, + }, + [34] = { + .suspended = GPIOMUX_VALID | GPIOMUX_PULL_DOWN, + }, +}; + +To indicate that a gpio is in use, call msm_gpiomux_get() to increase +its reference count. To decrease the reference count, call msm_gpiomux_put(). + +The effect of this configuration is as follows: + +When the system boots, gpios 12 and 34 will be initialized with their +'suspended' configurations. All other gpios, which were left unconfigured, +will not be touched. + +When msm_gpiomux_get() is called on gpio 12 to raise its reference count +above 0, its active configuration will be applied. Since no other gpio +line has a valid active configuration, msm_gpiomux_get() will have no +effect on any other line. + +When msm_gpiomux_put() is called on gpio 12 or 34 to drop their reference +count to 0, their suspended configurations will be applied. +Since no other gpio line has a valid suspended configuration, no other +gpio line will be effected by msm_gpiomux_put(). Since gpio 34 has no valid +active configuration, this is effectively a no-op for gpio 34 as well, +with one small caveat, see the section "About Output-Enable Settings". + +All of the GPIOMUX_VALID flags may seem like unnecessary overhead, but +they address some important issues. As unused entries (all those +except 12 and 34) are zero-filled, gpiomux needs a way to distinguish +the used fields from the unused. In addition, the all-zero pattern +is a valid configuration! Therefore, gpiomux defines an additional bit +which is used to indicate when a field is used. This has the pleasant +side-effect of allowing calls to msm_gpiomux_write to use '0' to indicate +that a value should not be changed: + + msm_gpiomux_write(0, GPIOMUX_VALID, 0); + +replaces the active configuration of gpio 0 with an all-zero configuration, +but leaves the suspended configuration as it was. + +Static Configurations +===================== + +To install a static configuration, which is applied at boot and does +not change after that, install a configuration with a suspended component +but no active component, as in the previous example: + + [34] = { + .suspended = GPIOMUX_VALID | GPIOMUX_PULL_DOWN, + }, + +The suspended setting is applied during boot, and the lack of any valid +active setting prevents any other setting from being applied at runtime. +If other subsystems attempting to access the line is a concern, one could +*really* anchor the configuration down by calling msm_gpiomux_get on the +line at initialization to move the line into active mode. With the line +held, it will never be re-suspended, and with no valid active configuration, +no new configurations will be applied. + +But then, if having other subsystems grabbing for the line is truly a concern, +it should be reserved with gpio_request instead, which carries an implicit +msm_gpiomux_get. + +gpiomux and gpiolib +=================== + +It is expected that msm gpio_chips will call msm_gpiomux_get() and +msm_gpiomux_put() from their request and free hooks, like this fictional +example: + +static int request(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset) +{ + return msm_gpiomux_get(chip->base + offset); +} + +static void free(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset) +{ + msm_gpiomux_put(chip->base + offset); +} + + ...somewhere in a gpio_chip declaration... + .request = request, + .free = free, + +This provides important functionality: +- It guarantees that a gpio line will have its 'active' config applied + when the line is requested, and will not be suspended while the line + remains requested; and +- It guarantees that gpio-direction settings from gpiolib behave sensibly. + See "About Output-Enable Settings." + +This mechanism allows for "auto-request" of gpiomux lines via gpiolib +when it is suitable. Drivers wishing more exact control are, of course, +free to also use msm_gpiomux_set and msm_gpiomux_get. + +About Output-Enable Settings +============================ + +Some msm targets do not have the ability to query the current gpio +configuration setting. This means that changes made to the output-enable +(OE) bit by gpiolib cannot be consistently detected and preserved by gpiomux. +Therefore, when gpiomux applies a configuration setting, any direction +settings which may have been applied by gpiolib are lost and the default +input settings are re-applied. + +For this reason, drivers should not assume that gpio direction settings +continue to hold if they free and then re-request a gpio. This seems like +common sense - after all, anybody could have obtained the line in the +meantime - but it needs saying. + +This also means that calls to msm_gpiomux_write will reset the OE bit, +which means that if the gpio line is held by a client of gpiolib and +msm_gpiomux_write is called, the direction setting has been lost and +gpiolib's internal state has been broken. +Release gpio lines before reconfiguring them. diff --git a/Documentation/cputopology.txt b/Documentation/cputopology.txt index f1c5c4bccd3..902d3151f52 100644 --- a/Documentation/cputopology.txt +++ b/Documentation/cputopology.txt @@ -14,25 +14,39 @@ to /proc/cpuinfo. identifier (rather than the kernel's).
