[RFC PATCH v1 02/20] gpio: Add GPIO polling interface to GPIO lib

From: lakshmi . sowjanya . d
Date: Tue Aug 24 2021 - 12:48:14 EST


From: Lakshmi Sowjanya D <lakshmi.sowjanya.d@xxxxxxxxx>

Some Intel Timed I/O devices do not implement IRQ functionality. Augment
read() interface to allow polling.

Add two GPIO device methods: setup_poll() and poll():
- setup_poll() configures the GPIO interface e.g. capture rising edges
- poll() checks for events on the interface

To implement polling, the driver must implement the two functions above
and should either leave to_irq() method NULL or return irq 0.

setup_poll() should configure the hardware to 'listen' for input events.

poll() driver implementation must return the realtime timestamp
corresponding to the event and -EAGAIN if no data is available.
