SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 3/3] dt-bindings: gpio: Add Nuvoton NPCM750 serial I/O expansion interface(SGPIO)
Hi Krzysztof

Thanks for your reply.

Our sgpio has 8 regs to control output and 8 regs to control input.
Each reg size is one byte.
and the sgpio interface has 4 pins(s_clk, d_out, d_in, LDSH).

The clock is generated by APB3, and one operation cycle includes input
and output
beginning the signal, the LDSH is low and now will send output serial data ,
after finished output serial data the LDSH will be high and get serial
input data.

The in/out serial data size is byte * ports , and direct to update the regs.

The Soc is controlled by port, not by each bit.
So if users need 9 output pins, the driver needs to open two ports,
because each reg is one byte.
if users need 20 input pins ,the driver needs to open three ports.

The list has some rules for use, The first half is the output and the
second half is the input.
the example as below:
if i set d_out=8 d_in=8

root@buv-runbmc:~# gpioinfo 8
gpiochip8 - 16 lines:
line 0: unnamed unused output active-high
line 1: unnamed unused output active-high
line 2: unnamed unused output active-high
line 3: unnamed unused output active-high
line 4: unnamed unused output active-high
line 5: unnamed unused output active-high
line 6: unnamed unused output active-high
line 7: unnamed unused output active-high
line 8: unnamed unused input active-high
line 9: unnamed unused input active-high
line 10: unnamed unused input active-high
line 11: unnamed unused input active-high
line 12: unnamed unused input active-high
line 13: unnamed unused input active-high
line 14: unnamed unused input active-high
line 15: unnamed unused input active-high

the line0~line7 will map to output reg1 and line8~line15 will map to
input reg1 and so on.

and thanks again for your suggestions and information for dts naming.
So I need to modify it from sgpio1 to gpio8
am i correct?

Best regards,
Jim
