Use Linux coding style wrapping (as described in Linux Coding style). I
am not going to tell you numbers because I want you to read the document
first.

This is boolean, not GPIO. I don't understand. "A GPIO", so any GPIO or
some specific? How is this property related to GPIO?

This pin? This is boolean, not a GPIO. GPIOs are phandles.

I don't understand what do you want to say here. I am also 100% sure you
did not test it on a real case (maybe example passes but nothing more).

I said it on the previous version, but this really seems like it should
be something like "slow-io-gpios". I know Jonathan expressed some
concerns about having to deal with it on the operating system side (as
the pin is either an input & used for this slow-io control, or an output
and used as an interrupt) but that is, in my opinion, a problem for the
operating system & the binding should describe how the hardware works,
even if that is not convenient. With this sort of property, a GPIO hog
would be required to be set up (and the driver for that gpio controller
bound etc before the pac driver loads) for correction functionality if
this property was in the non-default state.

As far as I understand, the same pin on the device is used for both an
output or an input depending on the configuration. As an input, it is
the "slow-io" control, and as an output it is an interrupt.
I think Marius is trying to convey that either this pin can be in
exclusively one state or another.

_However_ I am not sure that that is really the right thing to do - they
might well be mutually exclusive modes, but I think the decision can be
made at runtime, rather than at devicetree creation time. Say for
example the GPIO controller this is connected to is capable of acting as
an interrupt controller. Unless I am misunderstanding the runtime
configurability of this hardware, I think it is possible to actually
provide a "slow-io-gpios" and an interrupt property & let the operating
system decide at runtime which mode it wants to work in.

I'm off travelling at the moment Marius, but I should be back in work on
Monday if you want to have a chat about it & explain a bit more to me?

Cheers,
Conor.

Sure, but which compatible contains "interrupts"?

Yeah, I did notice that - I figured you understood that that was meant
to not be a check on compatibles, but rather on regular old properties &
the rationale for the mutual exclusion was what you were missing.

I'd forgotten the discussion completely ;)
My main question was why bother with slow? You can do it without the GPIO
anyway as there is a register bit for it.

I can conceive of various possible reasons, the evil one being that it's
actually out of the host processors control. Is that what we care about here?
If so it's nothing to do with a GPIO in the Linux sense at all and we can
assume that it's not connected to an interrupt at the same time.

We 'might' need a control for that case that says configure the device for
an external entity to use the slow pin.

It wouldn't be the first device to have that sort of thing, but normally they
are sequencing pins that are wired up to some mechanical device or similar.

I'll admit I've long forgotten what was going on here, but based just on
this bit of text I agree. There is nothing 'stopping' us having a pin
uses as either / or / both interrupt and gpio.

It'll be a bit messy to support in the driver as IIRC there are some sanity
checks that limit combinations on IRQs and output GPIOS. Can't remember
how bad the dance to navigate it safely is.

First version I'd just say pick one option if both are provided and
don't support configuring it at runtime.

Just to be clear, you are suggesting having the
"microchip,slow-io-gpios" and "interrupts" properties in the binding,
but the driver will just (for example) put that pin into alert mode
always & leave it there?
If that is what you are suggesting, that seems pragmatic to me.

Cheers,
Conor.

Yes.

If a use case to do something else comes along later, then we can
be smarter, but I'd like to keep it simple initially at least.

Sounds good to me, thanks Jonathan. Seems like a good compromise of
depicting the hardware accurately and not overcomplicating the driver
implementation.

Marius, I completely forgot to get in touch with you about this - give
me a shout on teams if there's anything outstanding that I can help you
with.
