Hi  Andy

Thanks for your reply.

The NPCM_IOXCFG2_PORT  default setting is to enable 0 input port and 0
output port.
The register default value is 0x0. Each port can support 8 pins.
If the register value is 0x31 means enable 3 output ports and 1 input port.
If customer has define nuvoton,input-ngpios  or  nuvoton,output-ngpios
dts property

For example , nuvoton,output-ngpios = <9>

The out_port value is 1 but one port only supports 8 pins.

This out_port value is 2, the driver will enable two port to support 9 pins.

Maybe it is my expression error , the out_port and in_port default value is 0.
