linux 驱动错误信息：can‘t find function irq on pin 17

描述：

在调试gpio_keys驱动时，出现了 can't find function irq on pin 17的问题。

问题查找

打印信息

[    5.140936] can't find function irq on pin 17
[    5.145711] can't find function irq on pin 17
[    5.150664] gpio-keys gpiokey.16: Unable to get irq number for GPIO 17, error -22
[    5.158901] gpio-keys: probe of gpiokey.16 failed with error -22

kernel/drivers/input/keyboard/gpio_keys.c

包含了 #include <linux/gpio.h>

		irq = gpio_to_irq(button->gpio);
		if (irq < 0) {
			error = irq;
			dev_err(dev,
				"Unable to get irq number for GPIO %d, error %d\n",
				button->gpio, error);
			goto fail;
		}
		bdata->irq = irq;

通过打印的信息可以知道 在使用gpio_to_irq()函数读取中断失败。下面查找该函数的具体实现

kernel/include/linux/gpio.h

static inline int gpio_to_irq(unsigned int gpio)
{
	return __gpio_to_irq(gpio);
}

kernel/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c

int __gpio_to_irq(unsigned gpio)
{
	return gpiod_to_irq(gpio_to_desc(gpio));
}

static int gpiod_to_irq(const struct gpio_desc *desc)
{
	struct gpio_chip	*chip;
	int			offset;

	if (!desc)
		return -EINVAL;
	chip = desc->chip;
	offset = gpio_chip_hwgpio(desc);
    //需要执行chip->to_irq()函数
	return chip->to_irq ? chip->to_irq(chip, offset) : -ENXIO;
}

接下来寻找chip->to_irq 

kernel/drivers/pinctrl/sunxi/pinctrl-sunxi.c

int sunxi_pinctrl_init(struct platform_device *pdev,
		       const struct sunxi_pinctrl_desc *desc)
{
....

....
pctl->chip->to_irq = sunxi_pinctrl_gpio_to_irq,
....
}

static int sunxi_pinctrl_gpio_to_irq(struct gpio_chip *chip, unsigned offset)
{
	struct sunxi_pinctrl *pctl = dev_get_drvdata(chip->dev);
	struct sunxi_desc_function *desc;
	unsigned pinnum = pctl->desc->pin_base + offset;
	unsigned irqnum;

	if (offset >= chip->ngpio)
		return -ENXIO;

	desc = sunxi_pinctrl_desc_find_function_by_pin(pctl, pinnum, "irq");
	if (!desc)
		return -EINVAL;

	irqnum = desc->irqbank * IRQ_PER_BANK + desc->irqnum;

	dev_dbg(chip->dev, "%s: request IRQ for GPIO %d, return %d\n",
		chip->label, offset + chip->base, irqnum);

	return irq_find_mapping(pctl->domain, irqnum);
}

static struct sunxi_desc_function *
sunxi_pinctrl_desc_find_function_by_pin(struct sunxi_pinctrl *pctl,
					const u16 pin_num,
					const char *func_name)
{
.................
省略
.................
	pr_warn("can't find function %s on pin %d\n", func_name, pin_num);

	return NULL;
}

最终在 kernel/drivers/pinctrl/sunxi/pinctrl-sun8iw11p1.c 中的 static const struct sunxi_desc_pin sun8iw11p1_pins[] 定义中发现，A-H 不支持外部中断，H-I支持

static const struct sunxi_desc_pin sun8iw11p1_pins[] = {
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(A, 0),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x0, "gpio_in"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x1, "gpio_out"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x2, "emac0"),		/* ERXD3 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x3, "spi1"),		/* CS0 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x4, "uart2"),		/* RTS */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x5, "gmac0"),		/* GRXD3 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x7, "io_disabled")),
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(A, 1),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x0, "gpio_in"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x1, "gpio_out"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x2, "emac0"),		/* ERXD2 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x3, "spi1"),		/* CLK */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x4, "uart2"),		/* CTS */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x5, "gmac0"),		/* GRXD2 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x7, "io_disabled")),
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(A, 2),
.....
	/* Hole */
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(H, 0),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x0, "gpio_in"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x1, "gpio_out"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x2, "lcd1"),		/* D0 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x3, "io_disabled"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x4, "uart3"),		/* TX */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x7, "csi1"),		/* D0 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION_IRQ_BANK(0x6, 0, 0)),
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(H, 1),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x0, "gpio_in"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x1, "gpio_out"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x2, "lcd1"),		/* D1 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x3, "io_disabled"),
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x4, "uart3"),		/* RX */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION(0x7, "csi1"),		/* D1 */
		  SUNXI_FUNCTION_IRQ_BANK(0x6, 0, 1)),
	SUNXI_PIN(SUNXI_PINCTRL_PIN(H, 2),
......

问题原因

gpio_keys驱动IO需要支持外部中断，A40I 支持外部中断的IO,在软件配置上只有H-I 32个引脚支持。从规格书得知也只有这些IO支持外部中断。

解决办法

只能使用支持外部中断的IO了 H0-H21 、I10-I19
