4x4 keypad interfacing with i-MX6 solo

[hrushinale]

I am trying to interface 4X4 keypad with i-MX6 solo , but I don;t have much idea on it. I am using  linux 3.14.28 kernel.

Do I need to modify the driver matrix_keypad.c in linux kernel ?

Do I need to modify the Device Tree File?

If any one has already done this then please guide me or share your suggestions to interface 4x4 keypad with i-MX6 solo

Chapter 19 Configuring the Keypad Controller pdf document.

Sir, I read the document i.MX 6Solo/6DualLite Applications Processor Reference Manual (chapter 39 Keypad Port (KPP)) but it gives information about registers of KPP and Typical keypad configuration and Key Press Interrupt sequence . But Stll I am unable to do modify the device tree and Driver file 4x4 matrix keypad

After browsing some documents I knew that I need to modify the Device tree file.But I am still confused about Driver because when I tried to understand the driver code imx_keypad.c in that they mentioned the below lines:

 #define MAX_MATRIX_KEY_ROWS    8 (Line 45)
 #define MAX_MATRIX_KEY_COLS    8 (Line 46) 
By looking into these lines I thought that if I replace this with 4 at both places it will work for 4x4 keypad.But after going further in driver code I found below lines which made me confused
reg_val |= keypad->rows_en_mask & 0xff;        /* rows */  (Line 325) 
reg_val |= (keypad->cols_en_mask & 0xff) << 8;    /* cols */    (Line 326) 
reg_val &= 0x00ff; (Line 331)  
So,my question is Do I need to modify the above and many more lines like this or just modifying that first two lines ,will it work?
Also I got one sample .dtsi file:

In the above code I am unable to find these addresses .So,if any one has done this previously Plz. help me
igorpadykov sir plz. share your thoughts regarding the Problem.

Thanks in advance.

one can start with linux/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/imx-keypad.txt

linux-2.6-imx.git - Freescale i.MX Linux Tree
