[PATCH v3 10/18] gpiolib: cdev: support setting debounce

From: Kent Gibson
Date: Sun Aug 09 2020 - 09:27:12 EST


Add support for setting debounce on a line via the GPIO uAPI.
Where debounce is not supported by hardware, a software debounce is
provided.

Signed-off-by: Kent Gibson <warthog618@xxxxxxxxx>
---

The implementation of the software debouncer waits for the line to be
stable for the debounce period before determining if a level change,
and a corresponding edge event, has occurred. This provides maximum
protection against glitches, but also introduces a debounce_period
latency to edge events.

The software debouncer is integrated with the edge detection as it
utilises the line interrupt, and integration is simpler than getting
the two to interwork. Where software debounce AND edge detection is
required, the debouncer provides both.

Due to the tight integration between the debouncer and edge detection,
and to avoid particular corner cases, it is not allowed to alter the
debounce value if edge detection is enabled. Changing the debounce with
edge detection enabled is a very unlikely use case, so it is preferable
to disallow it rather than complicate the code to allow it.
Should the user wish to alter the debounce value in such cases they will
need to release and re-request the line.

Changes since v2:
- only GPIO_V2 field renaming

Changes since v1:
- improve documentation on fields shared by threads.
- use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE for shared fields rather than atomic_t
which was overkill.
