into SOC processors.

help
Say Y here to add some extra checks and diagnostics to GPIO calls.
The checks help ensure that GPIOs have been properly initialized
before they are used and that sleeping calls aren not made from
nonsleeping contexts. They can make bitbanged serial protocols
slower. The diagnostics help catch the type of setup errors
that are most common when setting up new platforms or boards.
gpio: sysfs interface This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs. /sys/class/gpio /export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace /unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low /gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO /base ... (r/o) same as N /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1) GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging. Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute. Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file, helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off" requirements that don't merit full kernel support: echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export ... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23); use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it, when that GPIO can be used as both input and output. echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport ... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs resources associated with each exported GPIO. The additional I-space footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!). Since no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed. Related changes: * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip". When GPIO providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of that device instead of being "virtual" devices. * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have been updated. * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner" field ... for which missing kerneldoc was added. * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs. Those GPIOs are now flagged appropriately when the chip is registered. Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML. A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this merges to mainline.

bool "/sys/class/gpio/... (sysfs interface)"
depends on SYSFS && EXPERIMENTAL
help
Say Y here to add a sysfs interface for GPIOs.
This is mostly useful to work around omissions in a system's
kernel support. Those are common in custom and semicustom
hardware assembled using standard kernels with a minimum of
custom patches. In those cases, userspace code may import
a given GPIO from the kernel, if no kernel driver requested it.
Kernel drivers may also request that a particular GPIO be
exported to userspace; this can be useful when debugging.

config GPIO_PCA953X
tristate "PCA953x, PCA955x, and MAX7310 I/O ports"
depends on I2C
help
Say yes here to provide access to several register-oriented
SMBus I/O expanders, made mostly by NXP or TI. Compatible
models include:
4 bits: pca9536, pca9537
8 bits: max7310, pca9534, pca9538, pca9554, pca9557
16 bits: pca9535, pca9539, pca9555
This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called pca953x.
config GPIO_PCF857X
tristate "PCF857x, PCA{85,96}7x, and MAX732[89] I2C GPIO expanders"
depends on I2C
help
Say yes here to provide access to most "quasi-bidirectional" I2C
GPIO expanders used for additional digital outputs or inputs.
Most of these parts are from NXP, though TI is a second source for
some of them. Compatible models include:
8 bits: pcf8574, pcf8574a, pca8574, pca8574a,
pca9670, pca9672, pca9674, pca9674a,
max7328, max7329
16 bits: pcf8575, pcf8575c, pca8575,
pca9671, pca9673, pca9675
Your board setup code will need to declare the expanders in
use, and assign numbers to the GPIOs they expose. Those GPIOs
can then be used from drivers and other kernel code, just like
other GPIOs, but only accessible from task contexts.
This driver provides an in-kernel interface to those GPIOs using
platform-neutral GPIO calls.
