This series first converts the debugfs files in the pinctrl subsystem to
octal permissions and then adds a new debugfs file "pinmux-select".
Function name and group name can be written to "pinmux-select" which
will cause the function and group to be activated on the pin controller.
Notes for PATCH v5:
- convert permissions from symbolic to octal for debugfs_create_file()
calls in core.c that Joe Perches pointed out I had missed
- Linus W: please let me know if I should break this series apart as you
already applied an earlier version of octal conversion patch today [1]
- switch from sscanf() to just pointing to function name and group name
inside of the buffer. This also avoids having to allocate additional
buffers for fname and gname. Geert and Andy highlighted this security
issue and Andy suggested code to use instead of sscanf().
- switch from devm_kfree() to kfree() after Dan Carpenter warned me
- remove .read from pinmux_select_ops per Geert since it is write only
- add usage format to error when unable find fname or gname in buffer
Notes for PATCH v4:
- correct the commit message in the second patch to reference function
and group name instead of integer selectors. Apologies for not fixing
that in v3
- fix typos in cover letter
Notes for PATCH v3:
- add Suggested-by: Andy Shevchenko to the "pinctrl: use to octal
permissions for debugfs files" patch
- change the octal permissions from 0400 to 0444 to correctly match the
symbolic permissions (thanks to Joe Perches and Geert Uytterhoeven)
- note that S_IFREG flag is added to the mode in __debugfs_create_file()
(thanks to Andy for highlighting this and Joe for suggesting I should
add a note to the commit message)
- fix order of the goto labels so that the buffers are freed correctly
as suggested by Dan Carpenter
- move from devm_kzalloc() to kzalloc() as the buffers are only used
inside the pinmux_select() function and not related to the lifetime
of the pin controller device (thanks to Andy for pointing this out)
- correct the pinmux-select example in commit message to use the
function and group name instead of selector (thanks to Geert)
Notes for PATCH v2:
- create patch series that includes patch to switch all the debugfs
files in pinctrl subsystem over to octal permission
- write function name and group name, instead of error-prone selector
numbers, to the 'pinmux-select' file
- switch from static to dynamic allocation for the kernel buffer filled
by strncpy_from_user()
- look up function selector from function name using
pinmux_func_name_to_selector()
- validate group name with get_function_groups() and match_string()
- look up selector for group name with pinctrl_get_group_selector()
Notes for PATCH v1:
- posted seperate patch to switch all the debugfs files in pinctrl
subsystem over to octal permission
- there is no existing documentation for any of the debugfs enteries for
pinctrl, so it seemed to have a bigger scope than just this patch. I
also noticed that rst documentation is confusingly named "pinctl" (no
'r') and started thread about that [2]. Linus suggested chaning that
to 'pin-control'. Thus I am planning a seperate documentation patch
series where the file is renamed, references changed and a section on
the pinctrl debugfs files is added.
Notes for RFC v2 [3]:
- rename debugfs file "pinmux-set" to "pinmux-select"
- renmae pinmux_set_write() to pinmux_select()
- switch from memdup_user_nul() to strncpy_from_user()
- switch from pr_warn() to dev_err()

Switch over pinctrl debugfs files to use octal permissions as they are
preferred over symbolic permissions. Refer to commit f90774e1fd27
("checkpatch: look for symbolic permissions and suggest octal instead").
Note: S_IFREG flag is added to the mode by __debugfs_create_file()
in fs/debugfs/inode.c

2.25.1
Add "pinmux-select" to debugfs which will activate a function and group
when "<function-name group-name>" are written to the file. The write
operation pinmux_select() handles this by checking that the names map to
valid selectors and then calling ops->set_mux().
The existing "pinmux-functions" debugfs file lists the pin functions
registered for the pin controller. For example:
function: pinmux-uart0, groups = [ pinmux-uart0-pins ]
function: pinmux-mmc0, groups = [ pinmux-mmc0-pins ]
function: pinmux-mmc1, groups = [ pinmux-mmc1-pins ]
function: pinmux-i2c0, groups = [ pinmux-i2c0-pins ]
function: pinmux-i2c1, groups = [ pinmux-i2c1-pins ]
function: pinmux-spi1, groups = [ pinmux-spi1-pins ]
To activate function pinmux-i2c1 and group pinmux-i2c1-pins:
echo "pinmux-i2c1 pinmux-i2c1-pins" > pinmux-select

This is quite unusual to have in the kernel. Just return an error

Noisy, the user will get an error code and interpret it properly.
So, please drop them all. Otherwise it would be quite easy to exhaust

I was thinking about this again and I guess we may allow any amount of
spaces in between and any kind of (like newline or TAB).
So, taking above into consideration the code may look like this:
/* Take the input and remove leading and trailing spaces of entire buffer */
fname = strstrip(buf);
/* Find a separator, i.e. a space character */
for (gname = fname; !isspace(gname); gname++)
if (*gname == '\0')
return -EINVAL;
/* Replace separator with %NUL to terminate first word */
*gname = '\0';
/* Drop space characters between first and second words */
gname = skip_spaces(gname + 1);
if (*gname == '\0')
return -EINVAL;
But please double check the logic.

Sorry for your comments, but I don't understand what you mean by this
one. I think we wrote ""<function-name> <group-name>" the same way, no?

There is no documentation for any of the existing pinctrl debugfs files.
I was planning to do this as part of a seperate patch, but I can make it
part of this series instead.

Sorry for the confusion.
"[PATCH v8 0/3] pinctrl: pinmux: Add pinmux-select debugfs file" [1]
sent Feb. 20th was in my opinion ready to merge.
However, it occured to me yesterday since there had been no replies to
that thread, then it might be a good idea to add a 4th patch to rename
pinctl.rst to pin-control.rst. I sent that yesterday as v9 [2] but I am
fine with that being dropped as renaming pinctl.rst is unrelated to my
actual goal of adding pinmux-select to debugfs.
thanks,
