2010-05-27gpio: add Penwell gpio supportAlek Du
Intel Penwell chip has two 96 pins GPIO blocks, which are very similiar as Intel Langwell chip GPIO block, except for pin number difference. This patch expends the original Langwell GPIO driver to support Penwell's.

2010-03-07mfd: Fix lpc_sch related depends/selects, fix build errorRandy Dunlap
LPC_SCH is selected by GPI_SCH and I2C_ISCH, even when PCI is not enabled, but LPC_SCH depends on PCI, so make GPI_SCH and I2C_ISCH also depend on PCI. Those 2 selects also need to select what LPC_SCH selects, since kconfig does not follow selects.

Add the MAX7300-I2C variant of the MAX7301-SPI version. Both chips share the same core logic, so the generic part of the in-kernel SPI-driver is refactored into a generic part. The I2C and SPI specific funtions are then wrapped into seperate drivers picking up the generic part.

2009-12-15cs5535-gpio: add AMD CS5535/CS5536 GPIO driver supportAndres Salomon
This creates a CS5535/CS5536 GPIO driver which uses a gpio_chip backend (allowing GPIO users to use the generic GPIO API if desired) while also allowing architecture-specific users directly (via the cs5535_gpio_* functions). Tested on an OLPC machine. Some Leemotes also use CS5536 (with a mips cpu), which is why this is in drivers/gpio rather than arch/x86. Currently, it conflicts with older geode GPIO support; once MFGPT support is reworked to also be more generic, the older geode code will be removed.

2008-07-25gpiolib: allow user-selectionMichael Buesch
This patch adds functionality to the gpio-lib subsystem to make it possible to enable the gpio-lib code even if the architecture code didn't request to get it built in. The archtitecture code does still need to implement the gpiolib accessor functions in its asm/gpio.h file. This patch adds the implementations for x86 and PPC. With these changes it is possible to run generic GPIO expansion cards on every architecture that implements the trivial wrapper functions. Support for more architectures can easily be added.

2008-07-25gpio: sysfs interfaceDavid Brownell
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs. /sys/class/gpio /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel /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 claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging. Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute. Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above 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. Related changes: * 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 gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML. A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this merges to mainline.

This adds a new-style I2C driver with basic support for the sixteen bit PCA9539 GPIO expanders. These chips have multiple registers, push-pull output drivers, and (not supported in this patch) pin change interrupts. Board-specific code must provide "pca9539_platform_data" with each chip's "i2c_board_info". That provides the GPIO numbers to be used by that chip, and callbacks for board-specific setup/teardown logic. Derived from drivers/i2c/chips/pca9539.c (which has no current known users).

2008-02-05gpiolib: pcf857x i2c gpio expander supportDavid Brownell
This is a new-style I2C driver for most common 8 and 16 bit I2C based "quasi-bidirectional" GPIO expanders: pcf8574 or pcf8575, and several compatible models (mostly faster, supporting I2C at up to 1 MHz). The driver exposes the GPIO signals using the platform-neutral GPIO programming interface, so they are easily accessed by other kernel code. The lack of such a flexible kernel API has been a big factor in the proliferation of board-specific drivers for these chips... stuff that rarely makes it upstream since it's so ugly. This driver will let such boards use standard calls. Since it's a new-style driver, these devices must be configured as part of board-specific init. That eliminates the need for error-prone manual configuration of module parameters, and makes compatibility with legacy drivers (pcf8574.c, pc8575.c) for these chips easier (there's a clear either/or disjunction).

2008-02-05gpiolib: add drivers/gpio directoryDavid Brownell
Add an empty drivers/gpio directory for gpiolib infrastructure and GPIO expanders. It will be populated by later patches. This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code. Many external chips add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality (such as MFD drivers) and platform code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support. This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they must be initialized early in the device_initcall() sequence.
