The headphone jack should not be inverted


Have you tested this on Venice2 as well as Nyan? I'm pretty sure Venice2 was tested when this driver was written, and whoever added Nyan support to the kernel simply assumed it would work. As such, my suspicion is that this
series will break Venice2 even as it fixes Nyan.


I have not tested this on Venice2, only on Nyan. That seems like a plausible
cause and reasonable suspicion.

Why doesn't user-space expect what the kernel actually implements? The
kernel should be defining the control naming.

Which user-space are you using specifically, and which part of it expects
particular naming?

Perhaps this series needs to be parametrized based on a flag in DT, rather than switching the hard-coded values, so that only Venice2 can be affected?


Specifically pulse-audio and alsa under Arch Linux.

I was referencing 'Documentation/sound/alsa/soc/dapm.txt' with regards to control names. While it is possible to add another entry into the user-space configuration, I took this documentation as a definition of kernel control naming schemes, and thought the driver had used a non-standard naming scheme
(or at least, not a consistent one).

Update device-tree bindings to reflect the rename of the board's

This looks like an incompatible change to the DT. While you've fixed the DT, which will fix new installations, old DTs now won't work. This breaks DT
ABI. Any DT change needs to be backwards compatible, i.e. the old name
should still work and be documented as a legacy value.


I see that now. If the inversion behavior differs between venice2 and nyan, then another compatible string would need to be added anyways, correct? As
you mentioned above, this might need to be done anyways for the rename.

Venice2 and both nyan platforms do have different polarity of HP detect.

For some boards we have an hd-invert property in DT.

Would setting hp-det-gpio to active low in the pinmux achieve the same thing?

I don't believe we have a pinmux setting for this.

However, there's a GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH/LOW flag that could be used in DT property nvidia,hp-det-gpios's flags field to indicate the polarity. That should work, but indeed you could use a separate hp-dt-invert property if not.

Yeah, I could find other things that have an "invert" property, but none for headphone/mic detect pins.

I'm not sure setting the GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH/LOW flag would work. Doesn't it depend on how the pin is physically wired?
