Commit 90c2d2eb7ab5 ("MIPS: pci: lantiq: switch to using gpiod API") not only switched to the gpiod API, but also inverted / changed the polarity of the GPIO.
According to the PCI specification, the RST# pin is an active-low signal. However, most of the device trees that have been widely used for a long time (mainly in the openWrt project) define this GPIO as active-high and the old driver code inverted the signal internally.
Apparently there are actually boards where the reset gpio must be operated inverted. For this reason, we cannot use the GPIOD_OUT_LOW/HIGH flag for initialization. Instead, we must explicitly set the gpio to value 1 in order to take into account any "GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW" flag that may have been set.
In order to remain compatible with all these existing device trees, we should therefore keep the logic as it was before the commit.

The patch is unfortunately also wrong as it will break any board that actually has correct polarity annotation.
I will prepare a quirk for drivers/gpio/gpiolib-of.c to force the polarity to low for this GPIO.
Thanks.

Do you have example of such boards? They could not have worked before 90c2d2eb7ab5 because it was actively setting the reset line to physical high, which should leave the device in reset state if there is an inverter between the AP and the device.
In order to remain compatible with all these existing device trees, we should therefore keep the logic as it was before the commit.
With gpiod API operating with logical states there's still difference in logic:
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(reset_gpio, 1);
will leave GPIO at 1 if it is described as GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH (which is apparently what you want for boards with broken DTS) but for boards that accurately describe GPIO as GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW it well drive GPIO to 0, leaving the card in reset state.
You should either use gpiod_set_raw_value_calsleep() or we can try and quirk it in gpiolib (like we do for many other cases of incorrect GPIO polarity descriptions and which is my preference).
This still leaves the question about boards that require inversion. Are you saying that they have real signal inverter on the line or that their device trees correctly describe the signal as GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW?
BTW, please consider getting DTS trees for your devices into mainline. Why do you keep them separate?

Unfortunately, these are not "my" devices and I can't even test them. I've got feedback from some users when I updated the lantiq target to linux 6.1 in openwrt.
Let's assume that all boards physically expect an active-low signal.
If the GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW flag were now set in the device tree, the original (old) driver would have an incorrect initial level (LOW instead of HIGH) due to the
gpio_direction_output(reset_gpio, 1);
This is probably the reason why the flag GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH is set in almost all dts files in openwrt.
But with commit 90c2d2eb7ab5 the initial level (LOW) is guaranteed to be wrong because of the "GPIOD_OUT_LOW" and cannot be changed by "wrong" device tree settings.
The signal curve is LOW -> LOW -> HIGH instead of HIGH -> LOW -> HIGH.

For the lantiq targets in openWrt, the devicetree blob is appended to the kernel image and therefore also updated when doing a firmware upgrade. So, maybe it would also be an option to fix the driver (using GPIO_ACTIVE_* flag for the initial level and set it to 0 -> 1 -> 0) and rework all the dts files to use GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW.
Then we won't need any quirks.

Commit 90c2d2eb7ab5 ("MIPS: pci: lantiq: switch to using gpiod API") not only switched to the gpiod API, but also inverted / changed the polarity of the GPIO.
According to the PCI specification, the RST# pin is an active-low signal. However, most of the device trees that have been widely used for a long time (mainly in the openWrt project) define this GPIO as active-high and the old driver code inverted the signal internally.
Apparently there are actually boards where the reset gpio must be operated inverted. For this reason, we cannot use the GPIOD_OUT_LOW/HIGH flag for initialization. Instead, we must explicitly set the gpio to value 1 in order to take into account any "GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW" flag that may have been set.
Do you have example of such boards? They could not have worked before 90c2d2eb7ab5 because it was actively setting the reset line to physical high, which should leave the device in reset state if there is an inverter between the AP and the device.
Oh, you're right. I totally missed that '__gpio_set_value' was used in the original code and that raw accesses took place without paying attention to the GPIO_ACTIVE_* flags.
You can find the device trees I am talking about in [1].
@Thomas Bogendoerfer: Would it be possible to stop the merging of this patch? I think We have to do do some further/other changes.
In order to remain compatible with all these existing device trees, we should therefore keep the logic as it was before the commit.
With gpiod API operating with logical states there's still difference in logic:
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(reset_gpio, 1);
will leave GPIO at 1 if it is described as GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH (which is apparently what you want for boards with broken DTS) but for boards that accurately describe GPIO as GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW it well drive GPIO to 0, leaving the card in reset state.
You should either use gpiod_set_raw_value_calsleep() or we can try and quirk it in gpiolib (like we do for many other cases of incorrect GPIO polarity descriptions and which is my preference).
So you mean we should add an entry for "lantiq,pci-xway" to the of_gpio_try_fixup_polarity()? Do you know any dts / device outside the openWrt universe which is using this driver.

The GPIO is requested as optional, so if it's not found there's no error.
Interestingly the only user in the mainline kernel uses "gpios-reset" in is device tree which never worked.

I am not aware that anyone is using a recent kernel on the VRX200 outside of OpenWrt. I am also not aware that anyone is *not* appending the DTB to the kernel. The SoC is pretty old now, the successor of this SoC was released about 10 years ago.
For me it would be fine if you fix the broken device device trees shipped with the upstream kernel and with OpenWrt to make them work with the PCI driver instead of investing too much time into handling old DTBs.
The PCI reset is inverted on some boards to handle a dying gasp. If the power breaks down the reset should get triggered and the PCIe device can send a dying gasp signal to the other side. This is done on the reference designs of some Lantiq PCIe DSL card for the VRX318 and probably also some other components.

What I missed so far is the fact that the driver used '__gpio_set_value' before Dmitry's commit and thus used raw access to the GPIO.
This effectively means that every device that has worked with the driver so far must have an ACTIVE_LOW reset, no matter what was configured in the device tree.
So renaming the property in the dts from "gpio-reset" to "reset-gpios" and setting the FLAGS to "GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW" should actually solve the problem.
What still bothers me about the driver itself are 2 things: 1. the initial value of GPIOD_OUT_LOW. This means that there is no real defined HIGH -> LOW -> HIGH on reset. 2. if we change 1., then I think "mdelay(1)" is too short and we would have to change it to at least "mdelay(100)".

Right, luckily (to a definition of luckily) the driver and DTB used "wrong" syntax for the gpio property, so we can quirk it and make force ACTIVE_LOW polarity on old DTBs, and new DTBs with "reset-gpios" property will follow polarity specified in DTB.
What still bothers me about the driver itself are 2 things:
- the initial value of GPIOD_OUT_LOW. This means that there is no real defined HIGH -> LOW -> HIGH on reset.
Is this actually needed? Typically a card requires certain time in reset state (with reset line active) before it can be released, however there usually no restrictions on line being inactive beforehand. But typically it will be pulled up to avoid leakage...
Thanks.

We're not just talking about VRX200 (VR9) here, but even older devices such as AR9 and Danube.
For me it would be fine if you fix the broken device device trees shipped with the upstream kernel and with OpenWrt to make them work with the PCI driver instead of investing too much time into handling old DTBs.
The PCI reset is inverted on some boards to handle a dying gasp. If the power breaks down the reset should get triggered and the PCIe device can send a dying gasp signal to the other side. This is done on the reference designs of some Lantiq PCIe DSL card for the VRX318 and probably also some other components.

What I missed so far is the fact that the driver used '__gpio_set_value' before Dmitry's commit and thus used raw access to the GPIO.
This effectively means that every device that has worked with the driver so far must have an ACTIVE_LOW reset, no matter what was configured in the device tree.
So renaming the property in the dts from "gpio-reset" to "reset-gpios" and setting the FLAGS to "GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW" should actually solve the problem.
Right, luckily (to a definition of luckily) the driver and DTB used "wrong" syntax for the gpio property, so we can quirk it and make force ACTIVE_LOW polarity on old DTBs, and new DTBs with "reset-gpios" property will follow polarity specified in DTB.
We have already adapted the device trees in openWrt. [1] Will you create a quirk patch for the old DTBs or should I create one?
What still bothers me about the driver itself are 2 things:
- the initial value of GPIOD_OUT_LOW. This means that there is no
real defined HIGH -> LOW -> HIGH on reset.
Is this actually needed? Typically a card requires certain time in reset state (with reset line active) before it can be released, however there usually no restrictions on line being inactive beforehand. But typically it will be pulled up to avoid leakage...
No, I don't think that's absolutely necessary. Several tests have so far shown that it works as it is at the moment.

I'll revert the patch in mips-fixes.
