The device might be described in the device tree but not connected to the I2C bus. Update the status property so that the DRM panel logic returns -ENODEV when someone tries to get the panel attached to this DT node. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Rob Herring <robh+dt@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Eric Anholt <eric@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Rob, Thierry, I know this v3 is not following your recommendations (propagate the error to the upper layer and let the code in drivers/{base,i2c}/ handle the reprobing of devices that previously returned EPROBE_DEFER and the deregistration of the device that has been marked disabled), but it addresses the problem Eric was trying to solve in a simple and non-invasive way. I'm all for a clean solution, but I also know this sort of rework is likely to take time, so I'd appreciate having this patch accepted first. Regards, Boris Changes in v3: - Do not return -ENODEV when the touchscree detection fails, so that the DRM driver can be probed again and detect that the panel status is "failed" Changes in v2: - New commit --- .../drm/panel/panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 42 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c index 2c9c9722734f..26b5576c07f9 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c @@ -358,6 +358,39 @@ static const struct drm_panel_funcs rpi_touchscreen_funcs = { .get_modes = rpi_touchscreen_get_modes, }; +static void rpi_touchscreen_set_status_fail(struct i2c_client *i2c) +{ + struct property *newprop; + + newprop = kzalloc(sizeof(*newprop), GFP_KERNEL); + if (!newprop) + return; + + newprop->name = kstrdup("status", GFP_KERNEL); + if (!newprop->name) + goto err; + + newprop->value = kstrdup("fail", GFP_KERNEL); + if (!newprop->value) + goto err; + + newprop->length = sizeof("fail"); + + if (of_update_property(i2c->dev.of_node, newprop)) + goto err; + + /* We intentionally leak the memory we allocate here, because the new + * OF property might live longer than the underlying dev, so no way + * we can use devm_kzalloc() here. + */ + return; + +err: + kfree(newprop->value); + kfree(newprop->name); + kfree(newprop); +} + static int rpi_touchscreen_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c, const struct i2c_device_id *id) { @@ -376,14 +409,13 @@ static int rpi_touchscreen_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c, if (!ts) return -ENOMEM; - i2c_set_clientdata(i2c, ts); - ts->i2c = i2c; ver = rpi_touchscreen_i2c_read(ts, REG_ID); if (ver < 0) { + rpi_touchscreen_set_status_fail(i2c); dev_err(dev, "Atmel I2C read failed: %d\n", ver); - return -ENODEV; + return 0; } switch (ver) { @@ -391,10 +423,13 @@ static int rpi_touchscreen_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c, case 0xc3: /* ver 2 */ break; default: + rpi_touchscreen_set_status_fail(i2c); dev_err(dev, "Unknown Atmel firmware revision: 0x%02x\n", ver); - return -ENODEV; + return 0; } + i2c_set_clientdata(i2c, ts); + /* Turn off at boot, so we can cleanly sequence powering on. */ rpi_touchscreen_i2c_write(ts, REG_POWERON, 0); @@ -435,6 +470,9 @@ static int rpi_touchscreen_remove(struct i2c_client *i2c) { struct rpi_touchscreen *ts = i2c_get_clientdata(i2c); + if (!ts) + return 0; + mipi_dsi_detach(ts->dsi); drm_panel_remove(&ts->base); -- 2.17.1 _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
