S3C2410 GPIO Control
====================
Introduction
The s3c2410 kernel provides an interface to configure and
manipulate the state of the GPIO pins, and find out other
information about them.
There are a number of conditions attached to the configuration
of the s3c2410 GPIO system, please read the Samsung provided
data-sheet/users manual to find out the complete list.
GPIOLIB
With the event of the GPIOLIB in drivers/gpio, support for some
of the GPIO functions such as reading and writing a pin will
be removed in favour of this common access method.
Once all the extant drivers have been converted, the functions
listed below will be removed (they may be marked as __deprecated
in the near future).
- s3c2410_gpio_getpin
- s3c2410_gpio_setpin
Headers
See arch/arm/mach-s3c2410/include/mach/regs-gpio.h for the list
of GPIO pins, and the configuration values for them. This
is included by using #include <mach/regs-gpio.h>
The GPIO management functions are defined in the hardware
header arch/arm/mach-s3c2410/include/mach/hardware.h which can be
included by #include <mach/hardware.h>
A useful amount of documentation can be found in the hardware
header on how the GPIO functions (and others) work.
Whilst a number of these functions do make some checks on what
is passed to them, for speed of use, they may not always ensure
that the user supplied data to them is correct.
PIN Numbers
Each pin has an unique number associated with it in regs-gpio.h,
eg S3C2410_GPA(0) or S3C2410_GPF(1). These defines are used to tell
the GPIO functions which pin is to be used.
Configuring a pin
The following function allows the configuration of a given pin to
be changed.
void s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin(unsigned int pin, unsigned int function);
Eg:
s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin(S3C2410_GPA(0), S3C2410_GPA0_ADDR0);
s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin(S3C2410_GPE(8), S3C2410_GPE8_SDDAT1);
which would turn GPA(0) into the lowest Address line A0, and set
GPE(8) to be connected to the SDIO/MMC controller’s SDDAT1 line.
Reading the current configuration
The current configuration of a pin can be read by using:
s3c2410_gpio_getcfg(unsigned int pin);
The return value will be from the same set of values which can be
passed to s3c2410_gpio_cfgpin().
Configuring a pull-up resistor
A large proportion of the GPIO pins on the S3C2410 can have weak
pull-up resistors enabled. This can be configured by the following
function:
void s3c2410_gpio_pullup(unsigned int pin, unsigned int to);
Where the to value is zero to set the pull-up off, and 1 to enable
the specified pull-up. Any other values are currently undefined.
Getting the state of a PIN
The state of a pin can be read by using the function:
unsigned int s3c2410_gpio_getpin(unsigned int pin);
This will return either zero or non-zero. Do not count on this
function returning 1 if the pin is set.
Setting the state of a PIN
The value an pin is outputing can be modified by using the following:
void s3c2410_gpio_setpin(unsigned int pin, unsigned int to);
Which sets the given pin to the value. Use 0 to write 0, and 1 to
set the output to 1.
Getting the IRQ number associated with a PIN
The following function can map the given pin number to an IRQ
number to pass to the IRQ system.
int s3c2410_gpio_getirq(unsigned int pin);
Note, not all pins have an IRQ.
