The two devices I've been trying to test the behaviour on are: * Netgear GS110TPP: has an RTL8231 with three LEDs, each driven via a pin configured as (active-low) GPIO. The LEDs are easy for a quick visual check. * Zyxel GS1900-8: RTL8231 used for the front panel button, and an active-low GPIO used to hard reset the main SoC (an RTL8380). I've modified this board to change some of the strapping pin values, but testing with the jumpers and pull-up/down resistors is a bit more tedious. On the Netgear, I tested the following with and without the quirk: # Set as OUT-LOW twice, to avoid the quirk. Always turns the LED on gpioset 1 32=0; gpioset 1 32=0 # Get value to change to input, turns the LED off (high impedance) # Will return 1 due to (weak) internal pull-up gpioget 1 32 # Set as OUT-HIGH, should result in LED off # When the quirk is disabled, the LED turns on (i.e. old OUT-LOW value) # When the quirk is enabled, the LED remains off (i.e. correct OUT-HIGH value) gpioset 1 32=1 Now, what's confusing (to me) is that the inverse doesn't depend on the quirk: # Set as OUT-HIGH twice gpioset 1 32=1; gpioset 1 32=1 # Change to high-Z gpioget 1 32 # Set to OUT-LOW, always results in LED on, with or without quirk gpioset 1 32=0 Any idea why this would be (or appear) broken on the former case, but not on the latter? I was trying to reproduce this behaviour on the Zyxel, but using the strapping pins that are also used to configure the device's address. So perhaps the pull- ups/-downs were confusing the results. Using a separate pin on the Zyxel's RTL8231, I've now been able to confirm the same behaviour as on the Netgear, including capturing the resulting glitch (with my simple logic analyser) when enabling the quirk in the first test case. I hope this explains why I've still included the quirk in this revision. If not, please let me know what isn't clear. Best, Sander
