While this is stated as obsoleted, the sysfs interface described
there is still valid, and belongs to the admin-guide.

The API described at sysfs.txt is deprecated.
Still, as it is still part of the Kernel (and will likely be
there for some time, as we don't simply remove APIs). So,
it makes sense to keep it there.
The conversion of this file is trivial:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- mark a literal block as such.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.
The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)
A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.
A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.
List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)

Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)
Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).
I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.
As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

This driver was merged in 2011 as a tool for detecting the orientation
of a screen. The device driver assumes board file setup using the
platform data from <linux/input/gpio_tilt.h>. But no boards in the
kernel tree defines this platform data.
As I am faced with refactoring drivers to use GPIO descriptors and
pass decriptor tables from boards, or use the device tree device
drivers like these creates a serious problem: I cannot fix them and
cannot test them, not even compile-test them with a system actually
using it (no in-tree boardfile).
I suggest to delete this driver and rewrite it using device tree if
it is still in use on actively maintained systems.
I can also offer to rewrite it out of the blue using device tree if
someone promise to test it and help me iterate it.

SPI-attached GPIO controllers typically read out all inputs in one go.
If callers desire the values of multipe inputs, ideally a single readout
should take place to return the desired values. However the current
driver API only offers a ->get callback but no ->get_multiple (unlike
->set_multiple, which is present). Thus, to read multiple inputs, a
full readout needs to be performed for every single value (barring
driver-internal caching), which is inefficient.
In fact, the lack of a ->get_multiple callback has been bemoaned
repeatedly by the gpio subsystem maintainer:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-gpio/msg10571.html
http://www.spinics.net/lists/devicetree/msg121734.html
Introduce the missing callback. Add corresponding consumer functions
such as gpiod_get_array_value(). Amend linehandle_ioctl() to take
advantage of the newly added infrastructure. Update the documentation.

This driver provides PS/2 serio bus support by implementing bit banging
with the GPIO API. The GPIO pins, data and clock, can be configured with
a node in the device tree or by generic device properties (GDP).
Writing to a device is supported as well, though it is possible timings
can not be halt as they are tough and difficult to reach with bit banging.
Therefore it can be configured (also in DT and GDP) whether the serio
write function should be available for clients.
This driver is for development purposes and not recommended for productive
use. However, this driver can be useful e.g. when no USB port is available
or using old peripherals is desired as PS/2 controller chips getting rare.
This driver was tested on bcm2825 and on Kirin 960 and it worked well
together with the atkbd and psmouse driver.

Given the intent behind gpiod_get_optional() and friends it does not make
sense to return -ENOSYS when GPIOLIB is disabled: the driver is expected to
work just fine without gpio so let's behave as if gpio was not found.
Otherwise we have to special-case -ENOSYS in drivers.
Note that there was objection that someone might forget to enable GPIOLIB
when dealing with a platform that has device that actually specifies
optional gpio and we'll break it. I find this unconvincing as that would
have to be the *only GPIO* in the system, which is extremely unlikely.

Updated and proofread the documentation for GPIO drivers a bit
when looking over the changes for generic configuration.
Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

Currently we already have two pin configuration related callbacks
available for GPIO chips .set_single_ended() and .set_debounce(). In
future we expect to have even more, which does not scale well if we need
to add yet another callback to the GPIO chip structure for each possible
configuration parameter.
Better solution is to reuse what we already have available in the
generic pinconf.
To support this, we introduce a new .set_config() callback for GPIO
chips. The callback takes a single packed pin configuration value as
parameter. This can then be extended easily beyond what is currently
supported by just adding new types to the generic pinconf enum.
If the GPIO driver is backed up by a pinctrl driver the GPIO driver can
just assign gpiochip_generic_config() (introduced in this patch) to
.set_config and that will take care configuration requests are directed
to the pinctrl driver.
We then convert the existing drivers over .set_config() and finally
remove the .set_single_ended() and .set_debounce() callbacks.

"Bulk GPIO changes for the v4.10 kernel cycle:
Core changes:
- Simplify threaded interrupt handling: instead of passing numbed
parameters to gpiochip_irqchip_add_chained() we create a new call:
gpiochip_irqchip_add_nested() so the two types are clearly
semantically different. Also make sure that all nested chips call
gpiochip_set_nested_irqchip() which is necessary for IRQ resend to
work properly if it happens.
- Return error on seek operations for the chardev.
- Clamp values set as part of gpio[d]_direction_output() so that
anything != 0 will be send down to the driver as "1" not the value
passed in.
- ACPI can now support naming of GPIO lines, hogs and holes in the
GPIO lists.

- The SX150x driver was deemed unfit for the GPIO subsystem and was
moved over to a combined GPIO+pinctrl driver in the pinctrl
subsystem.

This tries to simplify the use of CONFIG_GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP when
using threaded interrupts: add a new call
gpiochip_irqchip_add_nested() to indicate that we're dealing
with a nested rather than a chained irqchip, then create a
separate gpiochip_set_nested_irqchip() to mirror
the gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip() call to connect the
parent and child interrupts.
In the nested case gpiochip_set_nested_irqchip() does nothing
more than call irq_set_parent() on each valid child interrupt,
which has little semantic effect in the kernel, but this is
probably still formally correct.
Update all drivers using nested interrupts to use
gpiochip_irqchip_add_nested() so we can now see clearly
which these users are.
The DLN2 driver can drop its specific hack with
.irq_not_threaded as we now recognize whether a chip is
threaded or not from its use of gpiochip_irqchip_add_nested()
signature rather than from inspecting .can_sleep.
We rename the .irq_parent to .irq_chained_parent since this
parent IRQ is only really kept around for the chained
interrupt handlers.

When using GPIO irqchip helpers to setup irqchip for a gpiolib based
driver, it is not possible to select which GPIOs to add to the IRQ domain.
Instead it just adds all GPIOs which is not always desired. For example
there might be GPIOs that for some reason cannot generated normal
interrupts at all.
To support this we add a flag irq_need_valid_mask to struct gpio_chip. When
this flag is set the core allocates irq_valid_mask that holds one bit for
each GPIO the chip has. By default all bits are set but drivers can
manipulate this using set_bit() and clear_bit() accordingly.
Then when gpiochip_irqchip_add() is called, this mask is checked and all
GPIOs with bit is set are added to the IRQ domain created for the GPIO
chip.

extended by the GPIO suffix if not NULL. I had to look into the code to
understand this and properly find the GPIO I've been looking for, so document
this.

With commit 39b2bbe3d715 ("gpio: add flags argument to gpiod_get*()
functions") the gpiod_get*() functions got a 'flags' parameter. Reflect
this in the documentation, too.

I've been searching for any documentation of 'the active-low property of a GPIO'
already mentioned in this documenation. But couldn't find any. Add it.

Now I am very fed up with people reinventing kernel wheels in
userspace "just because they can" (read, sysfs). Put in a angry
blurb in sysfs doc and put in a new file with pointers to other
subsystem drivers utilizing GPIOs.
