The PCA9552 lines can be used either for driving LEDs or as GPIOs. The
manual states that for LEDs, the operation is open-drain:
The LSn LED select registers determine the source of the LED data.
00 = output is set LOW (LED on)
01 = output is set high-impedance (LED off; default)
10 = output blinks at PWM0 rate
11 = output blinks at PWM1 rate
For GPIOs it suggests a pull-up so that the open-case drives the line
high:
For use as output, connect external pull-up resistor to the pin
and size it according to the DC recommended operating
characteristics. LED output pin is HIGH when the output is
programmed as high-impedance, and LOW when the output is
programmed LOW through the ‘LED selector’ register. The output
can be pulse-width controlled when PWM0 or PWM1 are used.
Now, I have a hardware design that uses the LED controller to control
LEDs. However, for $reasons, we're using the leds-gpio driver to drive
the LEDs which means wending our way through the gpiochip abstractions.
So with that in mind we need to describe an active-low GPIO
configuration to drive the LEDs as though they were GPIOs.
The set() gpiochip callback in leds-pca955x does the following:
...
if (val)
pca955x_led_set(&led->led_cdev, LED_FULL);
else
pca955x_led_set(&led->led_cdev, LED_OFF);
...
Where LED_FULL = 255. pca955x_led_set() in turn does:
...
switch (value) {
case LED_FULL:
ls = pca955x_ledsel(ls, ls_led, PCA955X_LS_LED_ON);
break;
...
Where PCA955X_LS_LED_ON is defined as:
#define PCA955X_LS_LED_ON 0x0 /* Output LOW */
So here we have some type confusion: We've crossed domains from GPIO
behaviour to LED behaviour without accounting for possible inversions
in the process.
Stepping back to leds-gpio for a moment, during probe() we call
create_gpio_led(), which eventually executes:
if (template->default_state == LEDS_GPIO_DEFSTATE_KEEP) {
state = gpiod_get_value_cansleep(led_dat->gpiod);
if (state < 0)
return state;
} else {
state = (template->default_state == LEDS_GPIO_DEFSTATE_ON);
}
...
ret = gpiod_direction_output(led_dat->gpiod, state);
In the devicetree the GPIO is annotated as active-low, and
gpiod_get_value_cansleep() handles this for us:
int gpiod_get_value_cansleep(const struct gpio_desc *desc)
{
int value;
might_sleep_if(extra_checks);
VALIDATE_DESC(desc);
value = _gpiod_get_raw_value(desc);
if (value < 0)
return value;
if (test_bit(FLAG_ACTIVE_LOW, &desc->flags))
value = !value;
return value;
}
_gpiod_get_raw_value() in turn calls through the get() callback for the
gpiochip implementation, so returning to our get() implementation in
leds-pca955x we find we extract the raw value from hardware:
static int pca955x_gpio_get_value(struct gpio_chip *gc, unsigned int offset)
{
struct pca955x *pca955x = gpiochip_get_data(gc);
struct pca955x_led *led = &pca955x->leds[offset];
u8 reg = pca955x_read_input(pca955x->client, led->led_num / 8);
return !!(reg & (1 << (led->led_num % 8)));
}
This behaviour is not symmetric with that of set(), where the val is
inverted by the driver.
Closing the loop on the GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW inversions,
gpiod_direction_output(), like gpiod_get_value_cansleep, handles it for
us:
int gpiod_direction_output(struct gpio_desc *desc, int value)
{
VALIDATE_DESC(desc);
if (test_bit(FLAG_ACTIVE_LOW, &desc->flags))
value = !value;
else
value = !!value;
return _gpiod_direction_output_raw(desc, value);
}
All-in-all, with a value of 'keep' for default-state property in the
gpio-leds child node, the current state of the hardware will in-fact be
inverted; precisely the opposite of what was intended.
Rework leds-pca955x so that we avoid the incorrect inversion and clarify
the semantics with respect to GPIO.
