      gpio: reference count the gpio device for each desc · 33a68e86
      Linus Walleij authored
      Every time a descriptor is retrieved from the gpiolib, we issue
      module_get() to reference count the module supplying the GPIOs.
      We also need to call device_get() and device_put() as we also
      reference the backing gpio_device when doing this.
      
      Since the sysfs GPIO interface is using gpiod_get() this will
      also reference count the sysfs requests until all GPIOs are
      unexported.

      gpio: reflect base and ngpio into gpio_device · fdeb8e15
      Linus Walleij authored
      Some information about the GPIO chip need to stay around also
      after the gpio_chip has been removed and only the gpio_device
      persist. The base and ngpio are such things, for example we
      don't want a new chip arriving to overlap the number space
      of a dangling gpio_device, and the chardev may still query
      the device for the number of lines etc.
      
      Note that the code that assigns base and insert gpio_device
      into the global list no longer check for a missing gpio_chip:
      we respect the number space allocated by any other gpio_device.
      
      As a consequence of the gdev being referenced directly from
      the gpio_desc, we need to verify it differently from all
      in-kernel API calls that fall through to direct queries to
      the gpio_chip vtable: we first check that desc is !NULL, then
      that desc->gdev is !NULL, then, if desc->gdev->chip is NULL,
      we *BAIL OUT* without any error, so as to manage the case
      where operations are requested on a device that is gone.
      
      These checks were non-uniform and partly missing in the past:
      so to simplify: create the macros VALIDATE_DESC() that will
      return -EINVAL if the desc or desc->gdev is missing and just
      0 if the chip is gone, and conversely VALIDATE_DESC_VOID()
      for the case where the function does not return an error.
      By using these macros, we get warning messages about missing
      gdev with reference to the right function in the kernel log.
      
      Despite the macro business this simplifies the code and make
      it more readable than if we copy/paste the same descriptor
      checking code into all code ABI call sites (IMHO).

      gpio/pinctrl: sunxi: stop poking around in private vars · 6cee3821
      Linus Walleij authored
      This kind of hacks disturbs the refactoring of the gpiolib.
      
      The descriptor table belongs to the gpiolib, if we want to know
      something about something in it, use or define the proper accessor
      functions. Let's add this gpiochip_lins_is_irq() to do what the
      sunxi driver is trying at so we can privatize the descriptors
      properly.

      gpio: move descriptors into gpio_device · 1c3cdb18
      Linus Walleij authored
      We need gpio_device to hold the descriptors so that they can
      be lifecycled with the struct gpio_device held from userspace.
      Move the descriptor array into gpio_device. Also rename it from
      "desc" (singularis) to "descs" (pluralis) to reflect the fact
      that it is an array.
