The upstream Atmel mXT driver implementation seems to handle the
T19 GPIO/PWM object as a key pad. Keys can be defined in the
device tree ("linux,gpio-keymap") and will be transported as key
events to the Linux input device if GPIO state changes.
With our hardware, the GPIO pins of the touch controller are
connected to a PWM/backlight controller and used as supervision
inputs. We like to read the status of the pins by a script or an
application in the sysfs.
Adding newer sysfs entries which shall be placed in the input
class directory eg:
/sys/class/input/input<n>/backlight_error1
No, if you want to export GPIO lines for external use create a gpiochip
instance and register it with GPIO subsystem. No ad-hoc sysfs please.
Thanks.
