Subject: [RFC] Dummy GPIO driver for use with SPI
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2008 09:22:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4942738A.80609@harris.com> (raw)
This patch adds a dummy GPIO driver, which is useful for SPI devices
that do not have a physical chip select.
Signed-off-by: Steven A. Falco <sfalco@harris.com>

The SPI subsystem requires a chip-select for each connected slave
device. I have a custom board with an Atmel "co-processor". This part
is reprogrammed via SPI, so it needs a chip select to satisfy the SPI
subsystem, but my hardware does not have a physical CS connected.
I could waste a "no-connect" GPIO pin, but I'd rather not. So, I've
written a dummy GPIO driver, which behaves exactly like a real GPIO
device, but with no underlying hardware. This could also be useful
as a template for real GPIO drivers.
I use the following dts entry:
GPIO3: dummy@ef500000 {
compatible = "linux,dummy-gpio";
reg = <ef500000 1>;
gpio-controller;
#gpio-cells = <2>;
};
Because the device is registered via of_mm_gpiochip_add, I have to
provide it a resource. The driver will ioremap this resource, but will
not touch it. So, I simply chose a reserved address in the 440EPx
address space, to satisfy that requirement. Any unused, ioremap-able
address can be used for this purpose.
I've put this into the platforms/44x/Kconfig for this example, but it
probably ought to go into sysdev/Kconfig, if it is of general interest.
Comments invited.
