[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] bcm2835_gpio: Implement GPIOF_FUNC

[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] bcm2835_gpio: Implement GPIOF_FUNC

[Alexander Graf]

So far we could only tell the gpio framework that a GPIO was mapped as input or
output, not as alternative function.

This patch adds support for determining whether a function is mapped as
alternative.

[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] serial: bcm283x_mu: Detect disabled serial device

[Alexander Graf]

On the raspberry pi, you can disable the serial port to gain dynamic frequency
scaling which can get handy at times.

However, in such a configuration the serial controller gets its rx queue filled
up with zero bytes which then happily get transmitted on to whoever calls
getc() today.

This patch adds detection logic for that case by checking whether the RX pin is
mapped to GPIO15 and disables the mini uart if it is not mapped properly.

That way we can leave the driver enabled in the tree and can determine during
runtime whether serial is usable or not, having a single binary that allows for
uart and non-uart operation.

That only tells me whether it's in/out/other, but I need to know whether the pin is configured to exactly function 5.

Acked-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@wwwdotorg.org>

In patch 2, I wonder if there shouldn't be a more "architectural" way of 
disabling the UART device; it seem like the method currently used could 
easily be broken by some change in the core code. I see you're 
discussing that part with Simon.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 2/2] serial: bcm283x_mu: Detect disabled serial device

[Alexander Graf]

On the raspberry pi, you can disable the serial port to gain dynamic frequency
scaling which can get handy at times.

However, in such a configuration the serial controller gets its rx queue filled
up with zero bytes which then happily get transmitted on to whoever calls
getc() today.

This patch adds detection logic for that case by checking whether the RX pin is
mapped to GPIO15 and disables the mini uart if it is not mapped properly.

That way we can leave the driver enabled in the tree and can determine during
runtime whether serial is usable or not, having a single binary that allows for
uart and non-uart operation.

Acked-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@wwwdotorg.org>

Nits:

I'd hope for a core DM feature to disable statically created devices 
rather than re-implementing it per driver, so we don't have to re-invent 
this each time we need it. Still, we can refactor this later if it turns 
out to be more generally useful.

Perhaps a separate patch for the raw serial driver feature 
(serial_bcm283x_mu.h, serial_bcm283x_mu.c), and the board-specific logic 
(all the other files)?

Agreed - yes let's wait until we have another case or two.

I was thinking about it, but figured that these two lines of code are so heavily intertwined with the fact that you want to actually set the disabled property. So I decided against splitting them out - it wouldn't benefit readability, bisectability or revertability (which are the usual reasons for splitting patches).
