Marvell CNXK GPIO Driver ======================== CNXK GPIO PMD configures and manages GPIOs available on the system using standard enqueue/dequeue mechanism offered by raw device abstraction. PMD relies both on standard sysfs GPIO interface provided by the Linux kernel and GPIO kernel driver custom interface allowing one to install userspace interrupt handlers. Features -------- Following features are available: - export/unexport a GPIO - read/write specific value from/to exported GPIO - set GPIO direction - set GPIO edge that triggers interrupt - set GPIO active low - register interrupt handler for specific GPIO - multiprocess aware Requirements ------------ PMD relies on modified kernel GPIO driver which exposes ``ioctl()`` interface for installing interrupt handlers for low latency signal processing. Driver is shipped with Marvell SDK. Limitations ----------- In multiprocess mode, user-space application must ensure no GPIO sharing across processes takes place. Device Setup ------------ CNXK GPIO PMD binds to virtual device which gets created by passing `--vdev=cnxk_gpio,gpiochip=` command line to EAL. `gpiochip` parameter tells PMD which GPIO controller should be used. Available controllers are available under `/sys/class/gpio`. For further details on how Linux represents GPIOs in userspace please refer to `sysfs.txt `_. If `gpiochip=` was omitted then first gpiochip from the alphabetically sort list of available gpiochips is used. .. code-block:: console $ ls /sys/class/gpio export gpiochip448 unexport In above scenario only one GPIO controller is present hence `--vdev=cnxk_gpio,gpiochip=448` should be passed to EAL. Before performing actual data transfer one needs to call ``rte_rawdev_queue_count()`` followed by ``rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get()``. The former returns number GPIOs available in the system irrespective of GPIOs being controllable or not. Thus it is user responsibility to pick the proper ones. The latter call simply returns queue capacity. In order to allow using only subset of available GPIOs `allowlist` PMD param may be used. For example passing `--vdev=cnxk_gpio,gpiochip=448,allowlist=[0,1,2,3]` to EAL will deny using all GPIOs except those specified explicitly in the `allowlist`. Respective queue needs to be configured with ``rte_rawdev_queue_setup()``. This call barely exports GPIO to userspace. To perform actual data transfer use standard ``rte_rawdev_enqueue_buffers()`` and ``rte_rawdev_dequeue_buffers()`` APIs. Not all messages produce sensible responses hence dequeueing is not always necessary. CNXK GPIO PMD ------------- PMD accepts ``struct cnxk_gpio_msg`` messages which differ by type and payload. Message types along with description are listed below. As for the usage examples please refer to ``cnxk_gpio_selftest()``. There's a set of convenient wrappers available, one for each existing command. Set GPIO value ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to set output to low or high. This does not work for GPIOs configured as input. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_SET_PIN_VALUE``. Payload must be an integer set to 0 (low) or 1 (high). Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_set_pin_value()`` wrapper. Set GPIO edge ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to set edge that triggers interrupt. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_SET_PIN_EDGE``. Payload must be `enum cnxk_gpio_pin_edge`. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_set_pin_edge()`` wrapper. Set GPIO direction ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to change GPIO direction to either input or output. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_SET_PIN_DIR``. Payload must be `enum cnxk_gpio_pin_dir`. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_set_pin_dir()`` wrapper. Set GPIO active low ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to set whether pin is active low. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_SET_PIN_ACTIVE_LOW``. Payload must be an integer set to 0 or 1. The latter activates inversion. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_set_pin_active_low()`` wrapper. Get GPIO value ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to read GPIO value. Value can be 0 (low) or 1 (high). Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_GET_PIN_VALUE``. Payload contains integer set to either 0 or 1. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_get_pin_value()`` wrapper. Get GPIO edge ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to read GPIO edge. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_GET_PIN_EDGE``. Payload contains `enum cnxk_gpio_pin_edge`. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_get_pin_edge()`` wrapper. Get GPIO direction ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to read GPIO direction. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_GET_PIN_DIR``. Payload contains `enum cnxk_gpio_pin_dir`. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_get_pin_dir()`` wrapper. Get GPIO active low ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used check whether inverted logic is active. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_GET_PIN_ACTIVE_LOW``. Payload contains an integer set to 0 or 1. The latter means inverted logic is turned on. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_get_pin_active_low()`` wrapper. Request interrupt ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to install custom interrupt handler. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_REGISTER_IRQ``. Payload needs to be set to ``struct cnxk_gpio_irq`` which describes interrupt being requested. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_register_gpio()`` wrapper. Free interrupt ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Message is used to remove installed interrupt handler. Message must have type set to ``CNXK_GPIO_MSG_TYPE_UNREGISTER_IRQ``. Consider using ``rte_pmd_gpio_unregister_gpio()`` wrapper. Self test --------- On EAL initialization CNXK GPIO device will be probed and populated into the list of raw devices on condition ``--vdev=cnxk_gpio,gpiochip=`` was passed. ``rte_rawdev_get_dev_id("CNXK_GPIO")`` returns unique device id. Use this identifier for further rawdev function calls. Selftest rawdev API can be used to verify the PMD functionality. Note it blindly assumes that all GPIOs are controllable so some errors during test are expected.
