I'm simply pointing out that the logic that applies to emulating OPEN_DRAIN also applies to emulating OPEN_SOURCE. IMHO if you are fixing this for one then it should be fixed for both. I'd love to see some test cases for the gpiolib driver-api, including this function. But I'm relatively new here, and am generally coming from the userspace side, so will have to admit ignorance to anything related to testing APIs within the kernel.

That would be nice, but it would also be nice to be sure that the fix works there _and_ it doesn't break anything by fixing it. I regard this as a risky change: with open drain/open source "outputs" it is quite obvious when the pin is being driven, it is in output mode. When the driver is off though, it is debatable whether it should be regarded as in input or output mode.

I just wanted to point out that the fix only deals with one of the two cases that need to be fixed - in case that slipped by. Cheers, Kent.

gpiolib has a corner case with open drain outputs that are emulated. When such outputs are outputting a logic 1, emulation will set the hardware to input mode, which will cause gpiod_get_direction() to report that it is in input mode. This is different from the behaviour with a true open-drain output. Unify the semantics here.
