Although gpiod_get_direction() can be considered side-effect free for
consumers, its internals involve setting or clearing bits in the
affected GPIO descriptor, for which we need to force-cast the const
descriptor variable to non-const. This could lead to incorrect behavior
if the compiler decides to optimize here, so remove this const
attribute. The intent is to make gpiod_get_direction() private anyway,
so it does not really matter.

Introduce new functions gpiod_set_array & gpiod_set_raw_array to the consumer
interface which allow setting multiple outputs with just one function call.
Also add an optional set_multiple function to the driver interface. Without an
implementation of that function in the chip driver outputs are set
sequentially.
Implementing the set_multiple function in a chip driver allows for:
- Improved performance for certain use cases. The original motivation for this
was the task of configuring an FPGA. In that specific case, where 9 GPIO
lines have to be set many times, configuration time goes down from 48 s to
20 s when using the new function.
- Simultaneous glitch-free setting of multiple pins on any kind of parallel
bus attached to GPIOs provided they all reside on the same chip and bank.
Limitations:
Performance is only improved for normal high-low outputs. Open drain and
open source outputs are always set separately from each other. Those kinds
of outputs could probably be accelerated in a similar way if we could
forgo the error checking when setting GPIO directions.
Change log:
v6: - rebase on current linux-gpio devel branch
v5: - check can_sleep property per chip
- remove superfluous checks
- supplement documentation
v4: - add gpiod_set_array function for setting logical values
- change interface of the set_multiple driver function to use
unsigned long as type for the bit fields
- use generic bitops (which also use unsigned long for bit fields)
- do not use ARCH_NR_GPIOS any more
v3: - add documentation
- change commit message
v2: - use descriptor interface
- allow arbitrary groups of GPIOs spanning multiple chips

commit 39b2bbe3d7
"gpio: add flags argument to gpiod_get*() functions"
added a dynamic flags argument to all the GPIOD getter
functions, however this did not cover the stubs so
when people used gpiod stubs to compile out descriptor
code, compilation failed.
Solve this by:
- Also rename all the stub functions __gpiod_*
- Moving the vararg hack outside of #ifdef CONFIG_GPIOLIB
so these will always be available.

The GPIOD flags are defined inside the #ifdef CONFIG_GPIOLIB
switch, making the gpiolib stubs fail if these flags are used
by a consumer. This is not correct: the stubs should compile
fine without GPIOLIB.

The huge majority of GPIOs have their direction and initial value set
right after being obtained by one of the gpiod_get() functions. The
integer GPIO API had gpio_request_one() that took a convenience flags
parameter allowing to specify an direction and value applied to the
returned GPIO. This feature greatly simplifies client code and ensures
errors are always handled properly.
A similar feature has been requested for the gpiod API. Since setting
the direction of a GPIO is so often the very next action done after
obtaining its descriptor, we prefer to extend the existing functions
instead of introducing new functions that would raise the
number of gpiod getters to 16 (!).
The drawback of this approach is that all gpiod clients need to be
updated. To limit the pain, temporary macros are introduced that allow
gpiod_get*() to be called with or without the extra flags argument. They
will be removed once all consumer code has been updated.

Introduce gpiod_get_optional() and gpiod_get_index_optional() helpers
that make it easier for drivers to handle optional GPIOs.
Currently in order to handle optional GPIOs, a driver needs to special
case error handling for -ENOENT, such as this:
gpio = gpiod_get(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio)) {
if (PTR_ERR(gpio) != -ENOENT)
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
gpio = NULL;
}
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
With these new helpers the above is reduced to:
gpio = gpiod_get_optional(dev, "foo");
if (IS_ERR(gpio))
return PTR_ERR(gpio);
if (gpio) {
/* set up GPIO */
}
While at it, device-managed variants of these functions are also
provided.

Some drivers dealing with a gpio_chip might need to act on its
descriptors directly; one example is pinctrl drivers that need to lock a
GPIO for being used as IRQ using gpiod_lock_as_irq().
This patch exports a gpiochip_get_desc() function that returns the
GPIO descriptor at the requested index. It also sweeps the
gpio_to_chip() function out of the consumer interface since any holder
of a gpio_chip reference can manipulate its GPIOs way beyond what a
consumer should be allowed to do.
As a result, gpio_chip is not visible anymore to simple GPIO consumers.

The documentation was not clear about whether
gpio_direction_output should take a logical value or the physical
level on the output line, i.e. whether the ACTIVE_LOW status
would be taken into account.
This converts gpiod_direction_output to use the logical level
and adds a new gpiod_direction_output_raw for the raw value.

This patch exports the gpiod_* family of API functions, a safer
alternative to the legacy GPIO interface. Differences between the gpiod
and legacy gpio APIs are:
- gpio works with integers, whereas gpiod operates on opaque handlers
which cannot be forged or used before proper acquisition
- gpiod get/set functions are aware of the active low state of a GPIO
- gpio consumers should now include <linux/gpio/consumer.h> to access
the new interface, whereas chips drivers will use
<linux/gpio/driver.h>
The legacy gpio API is now built as inline functions on top of gpiod.
