Could you kindly give us a pointer to the relevant thread in the archive?

Hmm? What's wrong with a DT entry

<&gpio1 0 0>;

for ena_gpio resulting in zero as a valid GPIO?

Do you want to say that GPIO #0 (<&gpio1 0 0>;) isn't a valid GPIO for
config->ena_gpio?


I wonder how this fits to

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/gpio/gpio-legacy.txt

"GPIOs are identified by unsigned integers in the range 0..MAX_INT"

"If you want to initialize a structure with an invalid GPIO number, use
some negative number (perhaps "-EINVAL");"

then?


Best regards

Dirk
