[PATCH,RFC] Input: gpio-keys - request and configure GPIOs

[PATCH,RFC] Input: gpio-keys - request and configure GPIOs

[Herbert Valerio Riedel]

Currently, gpio_keys.c assumes the GPIOs to be already properly configured;
this patch changes gpio-keys to perform explicit calls to gpio_request() and
gpio_configure_input().

This matches the behaviour of leds-gpio.

btw, I'm unsure whether the '?:' operator is allowed in kernel source;
but since I found quite a bit of occurences throughout the kernel source
(including gpio_keys.c), I assume it's tolerated... :-)

Makes sense from where I sit but let's see what guys who actually use
the module say... ;)

Looks good to me, too. I have yet to test, but at least the gpio_direction call
is mandatory as per gpio api docs, so this fixes an actual bug.
gpio_request is optional and claims the GPIO for this driver's use
only (on architectures where
this is supported), so I'm not sure if this is really needed, but it
shouldn't harm any of the current users of gpio-keys.

Philipp

I grepped through my 2.6.24-git source tre, and the only places I found
gpio_keys.h included was

drivers/input/keyboard/gpio_keys.c:#include <linux/gpio_keys.h>
arch/arm/mach-orion/dns323-setup.c:#include <linux/gpio_keys.h>
arch/arm/mach-at91/board-sam9261ek.c:#include <linux/gpio_keys.h>

with dn323-setup.c being maintained by myself, and board-sam9261ek.c
having seemingly non-compilable code wrt to gpio_keys (for instance, it
uses ".keycode" gpio_keys_button  struct members which should have been
".code"), there don't seem to exist many users of that module...? :-)

cheers,

yes, optional and no-harm, to quote the gpio API doc:

...but for instance, the current mach-orion/gpio.c implementation,
prints annoying printk warnings when someone fiddles with "unrequested"
GPIOs... :-)

We have quite a big number of users in the handhelds.org CVS kernel tree.
Unfortunately we are traditionally slow at pushing things to mainline, and many
of the devices depend on something like gpiolib hitting mainline for their GPIO
extenders.

well, is there any chance this patch of mine might make it for 2.6.25?
(or maybe even 2.6.24, since it can be regarded as being an actual
fix...?) :-)

There is a slight one ;)

Applied to the "for-linus" branch of my tree. Thank you.
