[PATCH v1 2/5] pardata: new bus for parallel data access

Thu Aug 2 19:45:33 UTC 2018
The pardata supports implement a simple bus for devices
that are connected using a parallel bus driven by GPIOs.
The is often used in combination with simple displays
that is often seen in older embedded designs.
There is a demand for this support also in the linux
kernel for HW designs that uses these kind of displays.
The pardata bus uses a platfrom_driver that when probed
creates devices for all child nodes in the DT,
which are then supposed to be handled by pardata_drivers.

+=========================
+Parallel Data Bus/Drivers
+=========================
+
+Displays may be connected using a simple parallel bus.
+This is often seen in embedded systems with a simple MCU, but is also
+used in Linux based systems to a small extent.
+
+The bus looks like this:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ ----+
+ | DB0-DB7 or DB4-DB7 +----
+ ===/========================
+ | E - enable | D
+ ---------------------------- I
+ C | Reset | S
+ P ---------------------------- P
+ U | Read/Write (one or two) | L
+ ---------------------------- A
+ | RS - instruction/data | Y
+ ----------------------------
+ | +----
+ ----+
+
+There may be several devices connected to the bus with individual
+reset and read/write signals.
+Two types of interfaces are supported. 8800 with a single read/write signal,
+and 6800 with individual read/write signals.
+
+Display supported by the parallel data bus: `<https://www.sparkfun.com/products/710>`_
+
+The overall code structure is
+
+.. code-block:: none
+

+ help
+ The parallel data framework is used for devices communicating
+ with a simple parallel interface.
+ The interface include 8 data pins, one register select,
+ one enable pin, a chip select and a reset pin.
+ The read/write may be 8080 style (one r/w pin) or 6800 style
+ with separate read and write pins.
+ The parallel data bus is often used for displays in embedded
+ systems.
+
+ If unsure, choose N.
