[PATCH v2 0/6] gpiolib: unify gpio-hog code

[PATCH v2 0/6] gpiolib: unify gpio-hog code

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

GPIO hogs are handled separately in three places: for OF, ACPI and
machine lookup. In addition hogs cannot be set up using software nodes.
A lot of that code is actually redundant and - except for some special
handling of OF nodes - can be unified in one place.

This series moves hogging into GPIO core and bases it on fwnode API
(with a single helper from OF to translate devicetree properties into
lookup flags), converts the two remaining users of machine hogs to using
software node approach and removes machine hog support entirely. In
addition, there's a patch extending the configurability of gpio-sim now
that it uses software nodes for hogs.

For merging: I think this should go through the GPIO tree with an Ack
from OMAP1 maintainers.

Even with the new feature for gpio-sim, this series still removes twice
the number of lines, it adds.

Changes in v2:
- reduce the leakage of OF APIs into GPIO core by replacing
  of_phandle_args with fwnode_reference_args
- fix return value check in patch 2/6
- shrink code in patch 2/6
- don't allow #gpio-cells to be 0
- extend commit message of patch 6/6 to explain the need for this new
  feature
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260305-gpio-hog-fwnode-v1-0-97d7df6bbd17@oss.qualcomm.com

[PATCH v2 1/6] gpio: of: clear OF_POPULATED on hog nodes in remove path

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

The previously set OF_POPULATED flag should be cleared on the hog nodes
when removing the chip.

[PATCH v2 2/6] gpio: move hogs into GPIO core

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Refactor line hogging code by moving the parts duplicated in
gpiolib-acpi-core.c and gpiolib-of.c into gpiolib.c, leaving just the
OF-specific bits in the latter.

This makes fwnode the primary API for setting up hogs and allows to use
software nodes in addition to ACPI and OF nodes.

The GPIO hog at [1] has a gpios property with two entries:

    gpios = <17 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>, <18 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

hence argc = 4, which is considered invalid.

The check should take into account the actual value of #gpio-cells,
and handle the presence of multiple GPIOs.

"git grep -Ww gpio-hog -- arch/*/boot/dts/ | grep 'gpios\s*=.*>,'" finds
several other places where multiple GPIOs are specified.

Argh! What is the replacement for this? I have patches for rsk7203 to

If there is no replacement maybe we can resurrect this? Or shoudl we
have add swnode support for hogs?

Hmm, I guess it is already there so I should simply switch. Sorry about
the noise.

Earlier in this series you have examples of using software node based
hogging, I hope you can use it?

[PATCH v2 6/6] gpio: sim: allow to define the active-low setting of a simulated hog

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Add a new configfs attribute to the hog group allowing to configure the
active-low lookup flag for hogged lines. This will allow us to extend
tests to also cover the line config of hogs set up using software nodes.
