Access control to these devices is provided by standard UNIX file system permissions, on an all-or-nothing basis: either a GPIO controller is accessible for a user, or it is not. Currently no mechanism exists to control access to individual GPIOs. Hence this adds a GPIO driver to aggregate existing GPIOs, and expose them as a new gpiochip. This is useful for implementing access control, and assigning a set of GPIOs to a specific user. Furthermore, this simplifies and hardens exporting GPIOs to a virtual machine, as the VM can just grab the full GPIO controller, and no longer needs to care about which GPIOs to grab and which not, reducing the attack surface. Recently, other use cases have been discovered[1]: - Describing simple GPIO-operated devices in DT, and using the GPIO Aggregator as a generic GPIO driver for userspace, which is useful for industrial control. Changes compared to v5[2]: - Convert raw gpiod_lookup users to GPIO_LOOKUP*(), - Update Documentation/driver-api/gpio/board.rst for gpiod_lookup changes, - Reword rationale behing looking up GPIOs by line name, - Introduce gpiod_set_config(), - Use gpiod_to_chip() instead of open-coding, - Drop debug print of gpio_desc.label, as it usually points to the GPIO Aggregator itself, - Drop no longer needed #include "gpiolib.h", - Fix missing offset translation in gpio_fwd_set_config(), - Fix "allows" without object, - Drop "gpiochipN" support, - Extend example, Changes compared to v4[3]: - Add Reviewed-by, Tested-by, - Fix inconsistent indentation in documentation. Changes compared to v3[4] (more details in the individual patches): - Drop controversial GPIO repeater, - Drop support for legacy sysfs interface based name matching, - Drop applied "gpiolib: Add GPIOCHIP_NAME definition", - Documentation improvements, - Lots of small cleanups. Changes compared to v2[5] (more details in the individual patches): - Integrate GPIO Repeater functionality, - Absorb GPIO forwarder library, as the Aggregator and Repeater are now a single driver, - Use the aggregator parameters to create a GPIO lookup table instead of an array of GPIO descriptors, - Add documentation, - New patches: - "gpiolib: Add GPIOCHIP_NAME definition", - "gpiolib: Add support for gpiochipN-based table lookup", - "gpiolib: Add support for GPIO line table lookup", - "dt-bindings: gpio: Add gpio-repeater bindings", - "docs: gpio: Add GPIO Aggregator/Repeater documentation", - "MAINTAINERS: Add GPIO Aggregator/Repeater section". - Dropped patches: - "gpio: Export gpiod_{request,free}() to modular GPIO code", - "gpio: Export gpiochip_get_desc() to modular GPIO code", - "gpio: Export gpio_name_to_desc() to modular GPIO code", - "gpio: Add GPIO Forwarder Helper". Changes compared to v1[6]: - Drop "virtual", rename to gpio-aggregator, - Create and use new GPIO Forwarder Helper, to allow sharing code with the GPIO inverter, - Lift limit on the maximum number of GPIOs, - Improve parsing of GPIO specifiers, - Fix modular build. Aggregating GPIOs and exposing them as a new gpiochip was suggested in response to my proof-of-concept for GPIO virtualization with QEMU[7][8]. For the first use case, aggregated GPIO controllers are instantiated and destroyed by writing to atribute files in sysfs.
