This patch series introduces support for the AAEON SRG-IMX8P embedded controller (MCU). The MCU is connected via I2C and provides GPIO and watchdog functionality for the SRG-IMX8P board. The series includes: - Device tree binding for the MFD driver - MFD driver that serves as the core driver for the MCU - GPIO driver implementing the GPIO functionality - Watchdog driver for system monitoring - MAINTAINERS entry for the new drivers The drivers follow the standard Linux kernel subsystem patterns, with the MFD driver registering the sub-devices (GPIO and watchdog) which are then handled by their respective subsystem drivers. Signed-off-by: Thomas Perrot (Schneider Electric) <redacted> --- Changes in v3: - Renamed SRG-IMX8PL to SRG-IMX8P - dt-bindings: add gpio-controller properties as required - mfd: move struct aaeon_mcu_dev from header to .c file (private) - mfd: use guard(mutex) and devm_mutex_init() for cleanup - mfd: firmware version log changed to dev_dbg() - mfd: add select MFD_CORE to Kconfig - Kconfig: add || COMPILE_TEST to all three drivers - watchdog: add comments explaining hardware timeout and WDOG_HW_RUNNING - watchdog: remove unused platform_set_drvdata() - watchdog: add a function to query the status - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260123-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-driver-v2-0-9f4c00bfb5cb@bootlin.com (local) Changes in v2: - Fold GPIO and watchdog bindings into MFD binding - Drop OF_GPIO dependency in GPIO Kconfig - Use __set_bit/__clear_bit/__assign_bit instead of atomic variants - Various driver cleanups and improvements - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251212-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-driver-v1-0-6bd65bc8ef12@bootlin.com (local) --- Thomas Perrot (Schneider Electric) (5): dt-bindings: vendor-prefixes: Add AAEON vendor prefix dt-bindings: mfd: Add AAEON embedded controller mfd: aaeon: Add SRG-IMX8P MCU driver gpio: aaeon: Add GPIO driver for SRG-IMX8P MCU watchdog: aaeon: Add watchdog driver for SRG-IMX8P MCU .../bindings/mfd/aaeon,srg-imx8p-mcu.yaml | 67 ++++++ .../devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.yaml | 2 + MAINTAINERS | 10 + drivers/gpio/Kconfig | 10 + drivers/gpio/Makefile | 1 + drivers/gpio/gpio-aaeon-mcu.c | 237 +++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/mfd/Kconfig | 10 + drivers/mfd/Makefile | 2 + drivers/mfd/aaeon-mcu.c | 137 ++++++++++++ drivers/watchdog/Kconfig | 10 + drivers/watchdog/Makefile | 1 + drivers/watchdog/aaeon_mcu_wdt.c | 136 ++++++++++++ include/linux/mfd/aaeon-mcu.h | 20 ++ 13 files changed, 643 insertions(+) --- base-commit: d358e5254674b70f34c847715ca509e46eb81e6f change-id: 20251211-dev-b4-aaeon-mcu-driver-e0e89ebf4afb Best regards, -- Thomas Perrot (Schneider Electric) [off-list ref]
