87e77e46c6 Documentation: gpio: board: describe the con_id parameter
The con_id parameter has to match the GPIO description and is automatically
extended by the GPIO suffix if not NULL. I had to look into the code to
understand this and properly find the GPIO I've been looking for, so document
this.

980f3c344f This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.19 series:
- A new API that allows setting more than one GPIO at the
   time. This is implemented for the new descriptor-based
   API only and makes it possible to e.g. toggle a clock and
   data line at the same time, if the hardware can do this
   with a single register write. Both consumers and drivers
   need new calls, and the core will fall back to driving
   individual lines where needed. Implemented for the MPC8xxx
   driver initially.
 - Patched the mdio-mux-gpio and the serial mctrl driver
   that drives modems to use the new multiple-setting API
   to set several signals simultaneously.
 - Get rid of the global GPIO descriptor array, and instead
   allocate descriptors dynamically for each GPIO on a certain
   GPIO chip. This moves us closer to getting rid of the
   limitation of using the global, static GPIO numberspace.
 - New driver and device tree bindings for 74xx ICs.
 - New driver and device tree bindings for the VF610 Vybrid.
 - Support the RCAR r8a7793 and r8a7794.
 - Guidelines for GPIO device tree bindings trying to get
   things a bit more strict with the advent of combined
   device properties.
 - Suspend/resume support for the MVEBU driver.
 - A slew of minor fixes and improvements.

5f42424354 gpiolib: allow simultaneous setting of multiple GPIO outputs
Introduce new functions gpiod_set_array & gpiod_set_raw_array to the consumer
interface which allow setting multiple outputs with just one function call.
Also add an optional set_multiple function to the driver interface. Without an
implementation of that function in the chip driver outputs are set
sequentially.

Implementing the set_multiple function in a chip driver allows for:
- Improved performance for certain use cases. The original motivation for this
  was the task of configuring an FPGA. In that specific case, where 9 GPIO
  lines have to be set many times, configuration time goes down from 48 s to
  20 s when using the new function.
- Simultaneous glitch-free setting of multiple pins on any kind of parallel
  bus attached to GPIOs provided they all reside on the same chip and bank.

Limitations:
  Performance is only improved for normal high-low outputs. Open drain and
  open source outputs are always set separately from each other. Those kinds
  of outputs could probably be accelerated in a similar way if we could
  forgo the error checking when setting GPIO directions.

Change log:
  v6: - rebase on current linux-gpio devel branch
  v5: - check can_sleep property per chip
      - remove superfluous checks
      - supplement documentation
  v4: - add gpiod_set_array function for setting logical values
      - change interface of the set_multiple driver function to use
        unsigned long as type for the bit fields
      - use generic bitops (which also use unsigned long for bit fields)
      - do not use ARCH_NR_GPIOS any more
  v3: - add documentation
      - change commit message
  v2: - use descriptor interface
      - allow arbitrary groups of GPIOs spanning multiple chips

39b2bbe3d7 gpio: add flags argument to gpiod_get*() functions
The huge majority of GPIOs have their direction and initial value set
right after being obtained by one of the gpiod_get() functions. The
integer GPIO API had gpio_request_one() that took a convenience flags
parameter allowing to specify an direction and value applied to the
returned GPIO. This feature greatly simplifies client code and ensures
errors are always handled properly.

A similar feature has been requested for the gpiod API. Since setting
the direction of a GPIO is so often the very next action done after
obtaining its descriptor, we prefer to extend the existing functions
instead of introducing new functions that would raise the
number of gpiod getters to 16 (!).

The drawback of this approach is that all gpiod clients need to be
updated. To limit the pain, temporary macros are introduced that allow
gpiod_get*() to be called with or without the extra flags argument. They
will be removed once all consumer code has been updated.

ef70bbe1aa gpio: make gpiod_direction_output take a logical value
The documentation was not clear about whether
gpio_direction_output should take a logical value or the physical
level on the output line, i.e. whether the ACTIVE_LOW status
would be taken into account.

This converts gpiod_direction_output to use the logical level
and adds a new gpiod_direction_output_raw for the raw value.

2a3cf6a359 gpiolib: return -ENOENT if no GPIO mapping exists
Some devices drivers make use of optional GPIO parameters. For such
drivers, it is important to discriminate between the case where no
GPIO mapping has been defined for the function they are requesting, and
the case where a mapping exists but an error occured while resolving it
or when acquiring the GPIO.

This patch changes the family of gpiod_get() functions such that they
will return -ENOENT if and only if no GPIO mapping is defined for the
requested function. Other error codes are used when an actual error
occured during the GPIO resolution.

fd8e198cfc Documentation: gpiolib: document new interface
gpiolib now exports a new descriptor-based interface which deprecates
the older integer-based one. This patch documents this new interface and
also takes the opportunity to brush-up the GPIO documentation a little
bit.

The new descriptor-based interface follows the same consumer/driver
model as many other kernel subsystems (e.g. clock, regulator), so its
documentation has similarly been splitted into different files.

The content of the former documentation has been reused whenever it
made sense; however, some of its content did not apply to the new
interface anymore and have this been removed. Likewise, new sections
like the mapping of GPIOs to devices have been written from scratch.

The deprecated legacy-based documentation is still available, untouched,
under Documentation/gpio/gpio-legacy.txt.
