The filenames were changed a while ago, but board.rst, consumer.rst and intro.rst still refer to the old names. Fix those references to match the Actual names and avoid possible confusion. Signed-off-by: Tom Schwindl Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

docs: gpio: explain GPIOD_OUT_* values and toggling active low

2021-07-21T13:21:36Z

I was confused about the gpiod_flags values and thought that GPIOD_OUT_LOW and GPIOD_OUT_HIGH set the line to be active low / active high. This is not true, but I got the misconception because the flags GPIOD_OUT_*_OPEN_DRAIN do change line configuration and there's a subchapter about *active low* and *open drain* semantics. Add an explicit mention that the initial value is a logical value (and not the line configuration or physical line level). Also add a mention of the function gpiod_toggle_active_low which was previously missing from this document. Signed-off-by: Hannu Hartikainen Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

docs: gpio: Fix formatting in description of gpiod__array_ functions

2021-02-15T10:43:25Z

The gpiod_*_array_* functions take four arguments, not three. Additionally, the formatting of the "value_bitmap" line results in misformatted HTML, so fix that. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

Documentation: gpio: fix typo and unclear legacy API section

2020-12-05T19:23:34Z

The "Interacting With the Legacy GPIO Subsystem" of the documentation was unclear at best, and even included a sentence that seems to say the opposite of what it should say about the lifetime of the return value of the conversion functions. Try to clarify things a bit and hopefully make that section more readable.

Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs: - A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro.
