How does this work in the lazy case when I want to drive the GPIO? Say I
have a GPIO that is also an interrupt. The code would look like
struct gpio_desc *gpio = gpiod_get(...)
unsigned int girq = gpiod_to_irq(gpio)
request_irq(girq, ...);
disable_irq(girq);
gpiod_direction_output(gpio, 1);
In the lazy case genirq wouldn't call the mask function until the first
interrupt arrived on the GPIO line. If that never happened then wouldn't
we be blocked in gpiod_direction_output() when the test_bit() sees
FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ? Or do we need irqs to be released before driving
gpios?
The client driver can decide to unlazy disable IRQ with below API...
irq_set_status_flags(girq, IRQ_DISABLE_UNLAZY);
This will immediatly invoke mask function (unlazy disable) from genirq,
even though irq_disable is not implemented.
Sure a consumer can disable the lazy feature, but that shouldn't be
required to make this work. The flag was introduced in commit
e9849777d0e2 ("genirq: Add flag to force mask in
disable_irq[_nosync]()") specifically to help devices that can't disable
the interrupt in their own device avoid a double interrupt.
i don't think this will be a problem.
Case 1) Client driver have locked gpio to be used as IRQ using
gpiochip_lock_as_irq()
In this case, When client driver want to change the direction for a
gpio, they will invoke gpiod_direction_output().
I see it checks for two flags (pasted below), if GPIO is used as IRQ and
whether its enabled IRQ or not.
/* GPIOs used for enabled IRQs shall not be set as output */
if (test_bit(FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ, &desc->flags) &&
test_bit(FLAG_IRQ_IS_ENABLED, &desc->flags)) {
The first one (FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ) is set only if client driver in past
have locked gpio to use as IRQ with a call to gpiochip_lock_as_irq()
then it never gets unlocked until clients invoke gpiochip_unlock_as_irq().
So i presume the client driver which in past locked gpio to be used as
IRQ, now wants to change direction then it will
a. first unlock to use as IRQ
b. then change the direction.
Once it unlocks in step (a), both these flags will be cleared and there
won't be any error in changing direction in step (b).
Case 2) Client driver did not lock gpio to be used as IRQ.
In this case, it will be straight forward to change the direction, as
FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ is never set.
Thanks,
Maulik
