Thank you for the review and apologies for the delayed response.

The TDA54 pin controller splits the pad configuration across two registers:
PADCFGA holds the mux mode and the functional pin configuration, PADCFGB
holds the wakeup and retention configuration. The controller also supports
two proxy addressing regions and claiming of registers. A register claimed
through proxy 1 becomes read-only at proxy 0 and can only be written
through proxy 1.

Add support for the pin controller in the TI TDA54 SoC.

Overall this looks pretty nice.


Thanks !!

Check the Sashiko reviews, there is always something
interesting there.


Yes, found a few interesting things there. Will reply to that
separately.

+config PINCTRL_TDA54
+ tristate "TI TDA54 pinctrl driver"
+ depends on OF && (ARCH_K3 || COMPILE_TEST)
+ select GENERIC_PINCTRL_GROUPS
+ select GENERIC_PINMUX_FUNCTIONS
+ select GENERIC_PINCONF

Just

select GENERIC_PINCTRL

and you get all three.


Done. Thanks.

+static int tda54_dt_node_to_map(struct pinctrl_dev *pctldev,
+ struct device_node *np,
+ struct pinctrl_map **maps,
+ unsigned int *num_maps)

What is so unique here that you need your own node to map function?

Can't you use pinctrl_generic_pinmux_dt_node_to_map()?


I can, thanks for the pointer. I wasn't aware of the generic helper.
Switched to pinctrl_generic_pinmux_dt_node_to_map() and it works fine.

Thanks and regards,

Please consult the code in drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-generic.c.
