[PATCH v1 0/4] gpio: regmap: Keep tracking IRQ requests and releases

From: Andy Shevchenko

Date: Thu Jul 02 2026 - 09:14:31 EST


During the review of the v3 [1] of the series that adds a driver for
Realtek DHC RTD1625 SoC GPIO the gap in the GPIO regmap implementation
has been discovered, id est the IRQ chip that is created by regmap IRQ
doesn't have IRQ request and release callbacks and hence in terms of
GPIO does not track if any line is locked as IRQ. This might lead to
undesired and most likely faulty behaviour. This series is to fill that
gap. Currently it only fixes the only user of the automatic IRQ chip
creation facility provided by GPIO regmap, but also provides the exported
callbacks for others to be possible to call them from customised versions
of the callbacks in the respective drivers.

Most of the affected drivers if I am not mistaken are the Industrial PC104
ones, hence I Cc'ed William to look at this and perhaps even test.

Yu-Chun, can you give a try with your v3 based on this series? I believe
we can use regmap approach after all.

The merge strategy is to go via GPIO tree with the immutable branch or tag
provided for the first patch that can be done by regmap tree for others to
consume. Of course, there are possible options, I'm all ears if you think it
will be better in any other way.
