2012-07-16 | m68knommu: refactor Coldfire GPIO not to require GPIOLIB, eliminate ↵ | Steven King | |
mcf_gpio_chips. If we're not connecting external GPIO extenders via i2c or spi or whatever, we probably don't need GPIOLIB. If we provide an alternate implementation of the GPIOLIB functions to use when only on-chip GPIO is needed, we can change ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB to ARCH_WANTS_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB so that GPIOLIB becomes optional. The downside is that in the GPIOLIB=n case, we lose all error checking done by gpiolib, ie multiply allocating the gpio, free'ing gpio etc., so that the only checking that can be done is if we reference a gpio on an external part. Targets that need the extra error checking can still select GPIOLIB=y. For the case where GPIOLIB=y, we can simplify the table of gpio chips to use a single chip, eliminating the tables of chips in the 5xxx.c files. The original motivation for the definition of multiple chips was to match the way many of the Coldfire variants defined their gpio as a spare array in memory. However, all this really gains us is some error checking when we request a gpio, gpiolib can check that it doesn't fall in one of the holes. If thats important, I think we can still come up with a better way of accomplishing that. Also in this patch is some general cleanup and reorganizing of the gpio header files (I'm sure I must have had a reason why I sometimes used a prefix of mcf_gpio and other times mcfgpio but for the life of me I can't think of it now).

2012-05-20 | m68knommu: move the 532x platform code into the common ColdFire code directory | Greg Ungerer | |
All these separate directories for each ColdFire CPU SoC varient seems like overkill. The majority of them only contain a single small config file. Move these into the common ColdFire code directory. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> |
