Re: ACPI SPI slave device

Hi Leif,

I went through my collection of MacBook acpidumps and noticed that the
MacBookPro12,1 also uses SPI, the DSDT entries are identical (save for
some changes in the ISOL method and an additional UIST method). That's
the 13" 2015 MacBookPro model.

John Horan and Henrik Rydberg added support for that model's keyboard
and trackpad with:
d58069265c9d ("Input: bcm5974 - add support for the 2015 Macbook Pro")
a4a2c54560f2 ("HID: apple: Add support for the 2015 Macbook Pro")
efbd34702fb1 ("Input: bcm5974 - prepare for a new trackpad generation")

I'm wondering, if the keyboard and trackpad are working on the MBP12,1,
why aren't they working on the MB8,1? Adding John and Henrik to cc: in
the hope of clarifying this.

Yes. Call the _DSM method and you'll get back a "package". Basically
that's a fancy ACPI term for a struct. You can then retrieve the values
out of that package.

Hm, according to DSDT the interrupt for APP000D should be 0x1E, i.e. 30.

I notice that the interrupt is specified in the device's ResourceTemplate
(_CRS.UBUF) but not in the package returned by the _DSM. If we need that
value then we cannot solve this by just parsing the values returned by the
_DSM. The only option we'd have is to retrieve that UBUF ResourceTemplate.

If you grep /System/Library/Extensions on OS X for these strings you'll
find the SPI drivers. Disassemble those and you'll find these methods are
called in the following functions:

ISOL gets called in AppleIntelLpssGspi.kext from
       AppleIntelLpssGspi::gpioConfig()
       AppleIntelLpssGspi::initGspiGpio()
SIEN gets called in AppleIntelLpssSpiController.kext from
       AppleIntelLpssSpiController::_setSPIBusDeviceEnable()
SIEN, SIST und UIST in the same kext from:
       AppleIntelLpssSpiController::getSpiDevices()

Apple often uses nonstandard ACPI methods like this for power management,
i.e. to power a chip up and down and query its status. SIEN takes one
argument which can be 1 or 0 and modifies GPIO pin 13. You'd need the
schematics of the mainboard to know what this pin is connected to but
this might be a power switch which powers the SPI controller up and down.
So the "EN" in "SIEN" might stand for "enable", which matches with the
function it's called from (_setSPIBusDeviceEnable). Likewise SIST returns
the status of GPIO pin 13 so the "ST" might stand for "status".

I don't know what ISOL does. "Isolation" maybe? This also modifies a few
GPIO registers. And UIST ist only present in the MBP12,1 DSDT, it returns
the status of GPIO pin 26.

HTH,

Lukas
