Hello,

What is the status for this patch, is there any remaining
changes to be made ?

Kind regards,

Currently the GPIO Aggregator does not support interrupts. This means
that kernel drivers going from a GPIO to an IRQ using gpiod_to_irq(),
and userspace applications using line events do not work.

Add interrupt support by providing a gpio_chip.to_irq() callback, which
just calls into the parent GPIO controller.

Note that this does not implement full interrupt controller (irq_chip)
support, so using e.g. gpio-keys with "interrupts" instead of "gpios"
still does not work.

I would prefer to avoid implementing irq_chip support, until there is a
real use case for this.

This has been tested with gpio-keys and gpiomon on the Koelsch
development board:

- gpio-keys, using a DT overlay[1]:

$ overlay add r8a7791-koelsch-keyboard-controlled-led
$ echo gpio-aggregator > /sys/devices/platform/frobnicator/driver_override
$ echo frobnicator > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-aggregator/bind

$ gpioinfo frobnicator
gpiochip12 - 3 lines:
line 0: "light" "light" output active-high [used]
line 1: "on" "On" input active-low [used]
line 2: "off" "Off" input active-low [used]

$ echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/light/brightness
$ echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/light/brightness

$ evtest /dev/input/event0

- gpiomon, using the GPIO sysfs API:

$ echo keyboard > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-keys/unbind
$ echo e6055800.gpio 2,6 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-aggregator/new_device
$ gpiomon gpiochip12 0 1
