Samsung GPIO implementation =========================== Introduction ------------ This outlines the Samsung GPIO implementation and the architecture specific calls provided alongside the drivers/gpio core. S3C24XX (Legacy) ---------------- See Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/GPIO.txt for more information about these devices. Their implementation has been brought into line with the core samsung implementation described in this document. GPIOLIB integration ------------------- The gpio implementation uses gpiolib as much as possible, only providing specific calls for the items that require Samsung specific handling, such as pin special-function or pull resistor control. GPIO numbering is synchronised between the Samsung and gpiolib system. PIN configuration ----------------- Pin configuration is specific to the Samsung architecture, with each SoC registering the necessary information for the core gpio configuration implementation to configure pins as necessary. The s3c_gpio_cfgpin() and s3c_gpio_setpull() provide the means for a driver or machine to change gpio configuration. See arch/arm/plat-samsung/include/plat/gpio-cfg.h for more information on these functions. |
