Commit 78d3a92edbfb ("gpiolib-acpi: Register GpioInt ACPI event handlers
from a late_initcall") deferred the entire acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt
call for each event resource.

This means it also delays the gpiochip_request_own_desc(..., "ACPI:Event")
call. This is a problem if some AML code reads the GPIO pin before we
run the deferred acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt, because in that case
acpi_gpio_adr_space_handler() will already have called
gpiochip_request_own_desc(..., "ACPI:OpRegion") causing the call from
acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt to fail with -EBUSY and we will fail to
register an event handler.

acpi_gpio_adr_space_handler is prepared for acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt
already having claimed the pin, but the other way around does not work.

One example of a problem this causes, is the event handler for the OTG
ID pin on a Prowise PT301 tablet not registering, keeping the port stuck
in whatever mode it was in during boot and e.g. only allowing charging
after a reboot.

This commit fixes this by only deferring the request_irq call and the
initial run of edge-triggered IRQs instead of deferring all of
acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt.

Thanks for a patch with such nice description.
I have couple of nitpicks and one question below.


   * For gpiochips which call acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupts() before late_init
- * (so builtin drivers) we register the ACPI GpioInt event handlers from a
+ * (so builtin drivers) we register the ACPI GpioInt irq-handlers from a

I would rather spell "IRQ handlers"

Ok.

   * late_initcall_sync handler, so that other builtin drivers can register their
   * OpRegions before the event handlers can run.  This list contains gpiochips
- * for which the acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupts() has been deferred.
+ * for which the acpi_gpiochip_request_irqs() call has been deferred.

  	mutex_unlock(&acpi_gpio_deferred_req_irqs_lock);
- if (defer)
-		return;
-
-	acpi_walk_resources(handle, "_AEI",
-			    acpi_gpiochip_request_interrupt, acpi_gpio);
+	if (!defer)
+		acpi_gpiochip_request_irqs(acpi_gpio);

Can we leave above condition and put here just

Ok.

	acpi_gpiochip_request_irqs(acpi_gpio);

?

  	list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(event, ep, &acpi_gpio->events, node) {
  		struct gpio_desc *desc;
+ if (event->irq_requested) {
+			if (event->irq_is_wake)
+				disable_irq_wake(event->irq);
+
+			free_irq(event->irq, event);
+		}


  		desc = event->desc;
  		if (WARN_ON(IS_ERR(desc)))

I don't remember if I asked already about possible memory leak here.
Am I reading code right?

  			continue;

Reading more code, I'm even not sure if this condition could ever happen.

You're right an event with an IS_ERR(desc) is never added to the list
of events, so this condition can never happen. I will add a follow up
patch to v2 removing this unnecessary check.

I will prepare a v2 of this patch this evening or tomorrow.

Hans
