Currently I'm testing this driver on a msm8916 device having AK09911 magnetometer. At the current stage the driver is failing on probe because reset pin is not connected to VID (as datasheet requires in case of pin not being used). In case of reset pin not asserted, register's reset is triggered resulting in empty registers, leading to probe fail. For this reason pin is asserted during power on in order to have informations in registers and deasserted before power off triggering a reset. A workaround that gets AK09911 working on device is by setting the reset pin always high on device tree. This way registers gets reset by a Power On Reset circuit autonomously and reset pin never triggers the reset. > -- > With Best Regards, > Andy Shevchenko Hoping to having answered to your question, Best regards, Jonathan Albrieux
