This should most likely be moved to a set of properties instad of an
enumerated type, I agree. And/or use a string to encode the type
simiar to how powerpc does some of the USB interfaces.

And either way, this should conform to the standard clock binding, not
use something locally hacked up.

The thing is, that "rfkill" isn't a _device_, and Marc is trying to
describe it as one. It's really just a software abstraction of a
collection of power supplies and/or GPIO lines that are used to power
up/down specific peripherals.

I know that the USB modem, for example, is probed through autoprobing
the USB bus. So there's no device to associate it with, per se. But
the USB slot that the modem is connected to, which is also the
connector that the GPIO controls the power supplies and reset line to,
are connected directly to one of the USB host controllers, right? So
maybe describing it there is a better option.

That still leaves the issue of actually having something to bind it
against. As I already said, rfkill isn't a device, so crafting one
just because linux wants one is the wrong way to go about. Maybe using
/chosen to refer to the device nodes for the GPIO lines under USB
instead, and have rfkill look for those and create a device if they're
found is a better way to go about it.

Oh, this gets more complicated than I wanted. First I only translated
the *existing* platform_data to devicetree format. I understand that
devicetree needs some more careful thoughts. Let me shortly describe my
hw setup and lets see how it can me mapped.

The wifi module (some models also include an additional bluetooth part)
is plugged into a mini-pci-e like slot. This has pins for usb (the
module uses usb), dap, sdio, uart, and some other pins which also
include the gpio lines for rfkill. The other gpio end is directly
connected to the tegra soc.

So there is no usb slot and a standard usb slot also does not contain
any gpio lines (just 2 power and 2 data lines). The usb controller also
sits in the tegra soc (well, more or less because it is the ulpi port
connected to SMC3315 and later a SMC2512 4-port usb hub). So gpio and
usb take a totally different path. IMHO, it makes no sense to add a gpio
to the usb controller, but see below.

To me it looks more like how the LEDs are implemented but with a
"linux,rfkill_type" property. To me this looks saner than adding a gpio
to an usb controller, even if there if no physical rfkill device. This
still leaves the problem of what to do with the clock (it is not used by
any machine AFAIK).

The main problem here is that usb devices have no device tree entries
(only the host controllers). Perhaps it is possible to a fake usb device
as a workaround? This has the advantage that it exists physically, but
the resources are not taken from the device tree. Instead all other non
standard properties (gpios, clocks) are.

So to move forward, what about a "fake" device like this?

usb@c5000000 {
wifi-card@1 { /* 1nd port on usb bus 1 */
compatible = "rfkill-gpio";

wifi {
label = "internal wifi";
reset-gpios = <&gpio 25 0>; /* Active high */
shutdown-gpios = <&gpio 85 0>; /* Active high */
type = "wlan";
clocks = <&tegra-car 17>;
};
};

bt-card@2 { /* 2rd port on usb bus 1 */
compatible = "rfkill-gpio";

bt {
label = "internal bluetooth";
reset-gpios = <&gpio 17 0>; /* Active high */
shutdown-gpios = <&gpio 35 0>; /* Active high */
type = "bluetooth";
};
};
};

I hope this won't confuse the usb controller.

This seems to be in the wrong place altogether. The gpio controller
would have a clock, not particular gpio line.

Correct. A binding should not be Linux specific. It should describe the h/w.

Why wouldn't the gpio lines just be part of the bt and wifi device nodes
themselves? The DT is supposed to describe h/w connections.

Should that be reset-gpios, shutdown-gpios? Even though you have only
one it seems that people put an 's' on the end.

It would be better I think if this were explicit here. If you have a
number, then what values does it take and what do they mean?

Can this be a phandle instead of a string?

IMO device tree bindings should be fully documented in this file,
rather than needing to look at a separate header. This is particularly
true if the binding is used in another project.

The only concern I have is the precedence of devicetree settings vs
platform data settings? If there is pdata passed in from board file
initialization, and there is a device tree (a corner case but I think a
valid one) then I believe the order would be that defined pdata would
override the devicetree settings. That way if someone wanted to make a
quick update, they wouldn't need to change the boot loader as well.
