Uwe Kleine-König bbecb07fa0 siox: new driver framework for eckelmann SIOX
SIOX is a bus system invented at Eckelmann AG to control their building
management and refrigeration systems. Traditionally the bus was
implemented on custom microcontrollers, today Linux based machines are
in use, too.

The topology on a SIOX bus looks as follows:

      ,------->--DCLK-->---------------+----------------------.
      ^                                v                      v
 ,--------.                ,----------------------.       ,------
 |        |                |   ,--------------.   |       |
 |        |--->--DOUT-->---|->-|shift register|->-|--->---|
 |        |                |   `--------------'   |       |
 | master |                |        device        |       |  device
 |        |                |   ,--------------.   |       |
 |        |---<--DIN---<---|-<-|shift register|-<-|---<---|
 |        |                |   `--------------'   |       |
 `--------'                `----------------------'       `------
      v                                ^                      ^
      `----------DLD-------------------+----------------------'

There are two control lines (DCLK and DLD) driven from the bus master to
all devices in parallel and two daisy chained data lines, one for input
and one for output. DCLK is the clock to shift both chains by a single
bit. On an edge of DLD the devices latch both their input and output
shift registers.

This patch adds a framework for this bus type.

What: /sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X/active
KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
Description:
On reading represents the current state of the bus. If it
contains a "0" the bus is stopped and connected devices are
expected to not do anything because their watchdog triggered.
When the file contains a "1" the bus is operated and periodically
does a push-pull cycle to write and read data from the
connected devices.
When writing a "0" or "1" the bus moves to the described state.

KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
Description:
Write-only file. Write
<type> <inbytes> <outbytes> <statustype>
to add a new device dynamically. <type> is the name that is used to match
to a driver (similar to the platform bus). <inbytes> and <outbytes> define
the length of the input and output shift register in bytes respectively.
<statustype> defines the 4 bit device type that is check to identify connection
problems.
The new device is added to the end of the existing chain.

KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
Description:
Write-only file. A single write removes the last device in the siox chain.

KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
Description:
Defines the interval between two poll cycles in nano seconds.
Note this is rounded to jiffies on writing. On reading the current value
is returned.

KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>
Description:
Read-only value. "0" means the Yth device on siox bus X isn't "connected" i.e.
communication with it is not ensured. "1" signals a working connection.
What: /sys/bus/siox/devices/siox-X-Y/inbytes
KernelVersion: 4.16
Contact: Gavin Schenk <g.schenk@eckelmann.de>, Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>

Description:
Counts the number of time intervals when the read status byte doesn't yield the
expected value.

Description:
Read-only value reporting if the watchdog of the siox device is
active. "0" means the watchdog is not active and the device is expected to
be operational. "1" means the watchdog keeps the device in reset.
