Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should define them using `gpios' property, Nodes that makes use of GPIOs should specify them using one or more
format of which is: <&gpio-controller1-phandle gpio1-specifier properties, each containing a 'gpio-list':
&gpio-controller2-phandle gpio2-specifier
0 /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 3 */
&gpio-controller4-phandle gpio4-specifier
...>;
Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent. gpio-list ::= <single-gpio> [gpio-list]
single-gpio ::= <gpio-phandle> <gpio-specifier>
gpio-phandle : phandle to gpio controller node
gpio-specifier : Array of #gpio-cells specifying specific gpio
(controller specific)
GPIO properties should be named "[<name>-]gpios". Exact
meaning of each gpios property must be documented in the device tree
binding for each device.
For example, the following could be used to describe gpios pins to use
as chip select lines; with chip selects 0, 1 and 3 populated, and chip
select 2 left empty:
gpio1: gpio1 {
gpio-controller
#gpio-cells = <2>;
};
gpio2: gpio2 {
gpio-controller
#gpio-cells = <1>;
};
[...]
chipsel-gpios = <&gpio1 12 0>,
<&gpio1 13 0>,
<0>, /* holes are permitted, means no GPIO 2 */
<&gpio2 2>;
Note that gpio-specifier length is controller dependent. In the
above example, &gpio1 uses 2 cells to specify a gpio, while &gpio2
only uses one.
gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank, gpio-specifier may encode: bank, pin position inside the bank,
whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted. whether pin is open-drain and whether pin is logically inverted.
Exact meaning of each specifier cell is controller specific, and must
be documented in the device tree binding for the device.
