[U-Boot] i2c: Fix pca953x endianess issue, commit daa75b34828d45b7c1d63009188d45f4a32d06ba
This commit broke our pca953x usage(on ppc). I wonder why gpio pins here has an endian, its not a number. If there must be an endian connected with this, should it not be a cpu_to_be16 instead, which will retain compatibility ? ___ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de https://lists.denx.de/listinfo/u-boot

Hello, we have a 16 bit value here, so we have to define whether bit0(containin the information for IO0.0) is in the first or the second byte. Since the PCA9555 does this encoding little endian, the conversion is allright. Cheers Dirk Am Do., 11.

I haven't seen any endian conversion in the kernel driver, have you? This is a bigger question than this driver really, so: Does IO pins have an endian? Jocke > Cheers > Dirk > Am Do., 11.

Actually, there is. See [1]:
static int pca953x_write_regs_16(struct pca953x_chip *chip, int reg, u8 *val)
{
u16 word = get_unaligned((u16 *)val);
return i2c_smbus_write_word_data(chip->client, reg << 1, word);
}
And get_unaligned on powerpc (see [2]):
#ifdef __LITTLE_ENDIAN__
#define get_unaligned__get_unaligned_le
#define put_unaligned__put_unaligned_le
#else
#define get_unaligned__get_unaligned_be
#define put_unaligned__put_unaligned_be
#endif
So the endianness conversion happens in the get_unaligned.

The end effect really is where in the final 16-bit word the values of each pin
appear: If you read in little-endian order, the values of the first bank
(register 0) will end up in the lower byte, and the values of the second bank
(register 1) will end up in the higher byte (in big-endian order it's
reversed).
Since the bits in each bank register look like this (see [3]):
Register 0:
| 7| 6| 5| 4| 3| 2| 1| 0|
| I0.7 | I0.6 | I0.5 | I0.4 | I0.3 | I0.2 | I0.1 | I0.0 |
Register 1:
| 7| 6| 5| 4| 3| 2| 1| 0|
| I1.7 | I1.6 | I1.5 | I1.4 | I1.3 | I1.2 | I1.1 | I1.0 |
You will end up with this final word if you read little-endian (byte at lowest
address at lowest position in word):
| I1.7 | I1.6 | I1.5 | I1.4 | I1.3 | I1.2 | I1.1 | I1.0 | I0.7 | I0.6
| I0.5 | I0.4 | I0.3 | I0.2 | I0.1 | I0.0 |
Since you usually want to number the pins from 0 to 15 with bank 0 having 0-7
and bank 1 having 8-15, this is exactly what you want, since now
!!(word & (1 << NUM))
gives you the value of pin number NUM in this enumeration.
