Hi Linus > Now thay you override .irq_request_resources() > gpiochip_irq_reqres() will not be called, so then you have > to lock the irq in the driver, with something like: > > ret = gpiochip_lock_as_irq(&chip->gc, d->hwirq); > if (ret) > goto out; > Ah yes, i didn't noticed that point, thanks for the tips. > You also have to implement the .irq_release_resources() > callback and unlock the IRQ there. In this case, yes the release becomes mandatory. I will send a v2. Thanks Patrice > > Yours, > Linus Walleij >
