On exynos boards the i2c has pulls by default, so there is precedent for what you're proposing at least. ...but I'll also say that most sane boards have external pulls on i2c and don't rely on the internal pulls. If you've got a board where the internal pull works well enough (lucky you!) then I think you should override the pinctrl for just that board. You are arguing that the internal pull "can't hurt". I have past experience that shows that not to be the case. Here's an old change for the Samsung ARM Chromebook: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/#/c/26607/ You probably can't dig into the bug link due to permissions, but I can paste some of that in: --- On Daisy / Snow we've got a NXP HDMI level converter on i2c2. That part has its own internal pullups. Ideally it shouldn't hurt for us to also have the exynos's (weak) 400K pullups on for the line too. But according to our EE, we're just barely within spec and so turning off the exynos pullups makes sense. Specifically, the problem is the data line when the external HDMI device is driving low. The NXP chip doesn't manage to drive the data line all the way low. Measured on one board: * If exynos has pullup: "low" is 560mV * If exynos has no pull: "low" is 518mV * If exynos has pulldown: "low" is 490mV Low should really be 0, but exynos allows .3*VDD (or 540mV). We should disable pullups in both the kernel and in U-Boot. There's even a chance that we'd want to enable pulldowns. Note that to read EDID at all you need to also remove the strong external pullups. --- I did put your patch in my rk3288 board and it booted up OK, but I'm not setup to test HDMI right now. In v1 I think Addy said he was having trouble with HDMI and the internal pulls on some board, so maybe he had a similar experience to mine on snow. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
