For Goodix, its reset line is active low. I do a "positive" action, so I activate something. If it was called nreset, that would be a different story. If it was named enable-gpios, I would understand.

It would seem that way. Anyways lets agree to disagree here. It seems that Dmitry is in favor of the change you suggest, so lets just focus on making sure these changes don't break AcPI support. >> And in all the ACPI tables the GPIOs are marked as active-high >> so changing this to have the driver now all of a sudden expect >> the reset-gpio to be marked as active-low at the gpio-subsys >> level will be quite cumbersome since normally the active-low vs >> -high info comes from the firmware-tables and now all of a sudden >> we need to override this. >> > > We have the information from which standard we got the GPIO, so we could always invert the flag we get from DT to match whatever is in ACPI. > > Blindly ignoring the DT flag is not an option since the HW design could actually require an inversion (GPIO connected to a transistor for example). I'm not sure what exactly could be done on the gpio-subsys level to deal with this. I think we just disagree on what the reset "active state" should mean and no amount of code would fix that? I would prefer for the gpiod_direction_output(ts->gpiod_rst, x) calls to have x actually matching the timing diagrams in the datasheet. At a minimum when you invert those from the datasheet, please add a comment that the values are inverted from the timing diagram because the GPIO is marked as active-low in their gpio_desc ? >> During all my work on the goodix driver I have always been very >> careful to not introduce any behavior changes for the DT users >> of the drivers.

I have zero knowledge about ACPI and didn't know that devm_gpiod_get_optional fetches from OF or ACPI.

I want to be noted that I like none of the options I offered so far. Yes breaking the existing DT bindings / existing DTB files is probably also going to be a problem. I'm going to defer reviewing that part of these changes to other people. > As I was surprised by the (for me) inverted logic of the GPIO state, I preferred fixing the driver and DT to match what my expectations were. > > I'm looking for guidance on how we can deal with this, I do not claim what I suggest is what we should absolutely go for. Ok, so I've been taking a look at how we can invert the 'x' passed to the gpiod_direction_output(ts->gpiod_rst, x) calls and not break things with ACPI. The rst pin is looked up through a acpi_gpio_mapping which contains acpi_gpio_params as one of the per pin parameters and that does have an active_low flag. After (re)reading the gpiolib code to fresh up my memory of how this all fits together that flag should do what it says on the tin. So if we want to revert the value of x for all the: gpiod_direction_output(ts->gpiod_rst, x); calls, then something like the following should work to get gpiolib to invert that again to turn it into a no-op: diff --git a/drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c b/drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c index a33cc7950cf5..5c294c56a20d 100644 --- a/drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c +++ b/drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c @@ -797,23 +797,26 @@ static int goodix_reset(struct goodix_ts_data *ts) } #ifdef ACPI_GPIO_SUPPORT -static const struct acpi_gpio_params first_gpio = { 0, 0, false }; -static const struct acpi_gpio_params second_gpio = { 1, 0, false }; +static const struct acpi_gpio_params int_first_gpio = { 0, 0, false }; +static const struct acpi_gpio_params int_second_gpio = { 1, 0, false }; + +static const struct acpi_gpio_params rst_first_gpio = { 0, 0, true }; +static const struct acpi_gpio_params rst_second_gpio = { 1, 0, true }; static const struct acpi_gpio_mapping acpi_goodix_int_first_gpios[] = { - { GOODIX_GPIO_INT_NAME "-gpios", &first_gpio, 1 }, - { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &second_gpio, 1 }, + { GOODIX_GPIO_INT_NAME "-gpios", &int_first_gpio, 1 }, + { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &rst_second_gpio, 1 }, { }, }; static const struct acpi_gpio_mapping acpi_goodix_int_last_gpios[] = { - { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &first_gpio, 1 }, - { GOODIX_GPIO_INT_NAME "-gpios", &second_gpio, 1 }, + { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &rst_first_gpio, 1 }, + { GOODIX_GPIO_INT_NAME "-gpios", &int_second_gpio, 1 }, { }, }; static const struct acpi_gpio_mapping acpi_goodix_reset_only_gpios[] = { - { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &first_gpio, 1 }, + { GOODIX_GPIO_RST_NAME "-gpios", &rst_first_gpio, 1 }, { }, }; Note this is missing the actual inverting of the gpiod_direction_output(ts->gpiod_rst, x) calls!
