[PATCH] include/hw/qdev-core.h: Correct and clarify gpio doc comments |
Date: |
Mon, 8 Jul 2024 16:33:12 +0100 |
The doc comments for the functions for named GPIO inputs and
outputs had a couple of problems:
* some copy-and-paste errors meant the qdev_connect_gpio_out_named()
doc comment had references to input GPIOs that should be to
output GPIOs
* it wasn't very clear that named GPIOs are arrays and so the
connect functions specify a single GPIO line by giving both
the name of the array and the index within that array
Fix the copy-and-paste errors and slightly expand the text
to say that functions are connecting one line in a named GPIO
array, not a single named GPIO line.

Does this help? I wrote the text and know what the functions do
to start with so it's a bit tricky for me to see where the docs
don't state things as clearly as they ought to do...
