Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 0/7] fix reset line polarity for Goodix touchscreen controllers

From: Quentin Schulz <[email protected]>

The Goodix touchscreen controller has a reset line active low. It happens to
also be used to configure its i2c address at runtime. If the reset line is
incorrectly asserted, the address will be wrongly configured. This cost me a few
hours, trying to figure out why the touchscreen wouldn't work.

The driver is "asserting" this reset GPIO by setting its output to 0, probably
to reflect the physical state of the line. However, this relies on the fact that
the Device Tree node setting the reset line polarity to active high, which is
incorrect since the reset is active low in hardware.

To fix this inconsistency, the polarity is inverted to not confuse the user
about the reset line polarity.

This is marked as RFC because it breaks DT compatibility and I cannot test ACPI
support. Do we also make this patch series only one patchset since the DT
patches depend on the driver patch and vice-versa? In which tree would this go?

I'm all ears if there's a better way to handle this. We could document this in
the DT binding but this kinda breaks the promise we make that the DT is not
bound to the driver implementation.

Thanks,
Quentin

Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 1/7] Input: goodix - fix reset polarity

From: Quentin Schulz <[email protected]>


The reset line is asserted for selecting the I2C target address and then

deasserted.



This inverted logic works because the boards using this touchscreen

controller also invert the polarity of their reset GPIO.



Instead of depending on this double-inversion of meaning, let's *assert*

the line.

NACK!

The PRT8MM has an inverter in the reset line. The reason for that is that the
reset line needs to be inactive when the driving side is unpowered.
The DT was correct, this change will break it.

The DT was correct. The implementation in the driver is changed (the
polarity is swapped) in this patch series, therefore the DT isn't
correct anymore, hence this patch.

See
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20221103-upstream-goodix-reset-v2-0-2c38fb03a300@theobroma-systems.com/
for the whole patch series.

This DT patch alone is obviously incorrect, but the context around it
matters. I could/should have made it all into one big patch, the
question is then how this big tree-crossing patch would be merged into
Linux (if there's consensus). We're not there yet.

For some additional background on the discussion that was had in the v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
I messed up the Cc list in the v1, apologies for the missing context in
the archived mails, I think one should be able to understand the
important bits by reading the answers in-mail. There, Dmitry, Hans and I
discussed the meaning of the active level of GPIOs/reset lines and I
expressed the reasons for such a change (which are also listed in the
cover letter of this patch series).

As stated in v1 cover letter, no implementation will satisfy every one.
We either make the DT binding implementation specific (which is what it
shouldn't be), or we swap the polarity in the Linux implementation and
thus the DT but then break DT backward compatibility.

Cheers,
Quentin

I'm not sure it's quite that simple... FWIW I'm using an add-on LCD
module with a GT9271[1] (and I won't be the only one - Raspberry Pi and
other SBC users using DT overlays or custom-built DTBs are a whole other
can of worms here), where GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW is correctly specified per the
schematics, thus "wrong" for the current driver behaviour, yet it *is*
working OK as-is. I guess that's because /RSTB ends up driven low for
long enough between the current "deassertion" by
gpiod_direction_output(1) and gpiod_direction_input() allowing the
external pull-up to take it high again.

Correct, that seems like it is the case for "current-wrong" GPIO level,
provided you have a pull-up on the RESET line (as recommended in the
datasheet).

c.f.
https://github.com/hadess/gt9xx/blob/master/specifications/GT9271%20Datasheet.pdf

with the current driver, what I assume we should get is:
___________________
INT _______| |___________

____________ __________________
RST |_________|

^
L__ pull-up on RST so high by default
^
L___ gpiod_direction_output(0) (deassert GPIO active-low, so high)
^
L____ goodix_irq_direction_output
^
L___ gpiod_direction_output(1) (assert GPIO active-low,
so low)
^
L____ gpiod_direction_input() (floating,
pull-up on RST so high)

This works because of the pull-up on RST and that what matters is that
the INT lane is configured 100µs before a rising edge on RST line (for
at least 5ms). However, the init sequence is not properly followed and
might get broken in the future since it is not something that we
explicitly support.

With the proposed patch:
___________________
INT _______| |___________

____ __________________
RST |_______|

^
L__ pull-up on RST so high by default
^
L___ gpiod_direction_output(1) (assert GPIO active-low, so low)
^
L____ goodix_irq_direction_output
^
L___ gpiod_direction_output(1) (deassert GPIO
active-low, so high)
^
L____ gpiod_direction_input() (floating,
pull-up on RST so high)

This should work too and does not rely on some side effects/timings and
should be future-proof.

As for OOT DTB/DTBO, nothing I can do unfortunately, that is correct.

The fact that we have both "interpretations" of the RESET GPIO level in
Linux is worrying, albeit with OOT DTBs. A driver or subsystem rework
might break boards in which case people should update their DTB as
suggested here or we'll decide to support both interpretations, which
ain't great either.

Cheers,
Quentin

Thanks for the detailed drawings. Yes, it seems this is an unfortunate case of
both polarities kind of working.

Our DT was correct, but the driver was wrong, even if it seemed to work
correctly, so this NACK still stands.

Our board has this GPIO pin wired to the gate of a MOSFET which acts as an
inverter and also isolates the signal from the GPIO port power rail. So from
the GPIO point of view, the signal is ACTIVE_HIGH. Please leave the DT like
this.

Thanks for fixing the driver.
