To use this driver in your system, register a platform_device with the
name 'rotary-encoder' and associate the IRQs and some specific platform
-data with it.
+data with it. Because the driver uses generic device properties, this can
+be done either via device tree, ACPI, or using static board files, like in
+example below:
-struct rotary_encoder_platform_data is declared in
-include/linux/rotary-encoder.h and needs to be filled with the number of
-steps the encoder has and can carry information about externally inverted
-signals (because of an inverting buffer or other reasons). The encoder
-can be set up to deliver input information as either an absolute or relative
-axes. For relative axes the input event returns +/-1 for each step. For
-absolute axes the position of the encoder can either roll over between zero
-and the number of steps or will clamp at the maximum and zero depending on
-the configuration.
+::
-Because GPIO to IRQ mapping is platform specific, this information must
-be given in separately to the driver. See the example below.
