Subject: [PATCH v2 07/11] gpio: Add revocable provider handle for struct gpio_chip
Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2026 06:10:54 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260203061059.975605-8-tzungbi@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260203061059.975605-1-tzungbi@kernel.org>
The underlying chip can be removed asynchronously. `gdev->srcu` is used
to ensure the synchronization before accessing `gdev->chip`.
Revocable encapsulates the details. Add revocable provider handle for
the corresponding struct gpio_chip in struct gpio_device so that it can
start to hide the synchronization details.

v2:
- Change usages accordingly after applying
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260129143733.45618-2-tzungbi@kernel.org.
- Add __rcu for `chip_rp`.
- Pass pointer of pointer to revocable_provider_revoke().
- Rebase accordingly after applying
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260203060210.972243-1-tzungbi@kernel.org.
