The patch increases the read buffer size to 180 bytes. It reduces the number of ft260_i2c_read() calls by three, improving the big reads performance. $ sudo i2ctransfer -y -f 13 w2@0x51 0x0 0x0 r180 Before: [ +4.071878] ft260_i2c_write_read: off 0x0 rlen 180 wlen 2 [ +0.000005] ft260_i2c_write: rep 0xd0 addr 0x51 off 0 len 2 wlen 2 flag 0x2 d[0] 0x0 [ +0.001097] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x41, clock 100 [ +0.000175] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x40, clock 100 [ +0.000004] ft260_i2c_read: rep 0xc2 addr 0x51 len 180 rlen 60 flag 0x3 [ +0.008579] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.000208] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x40, clock 100 [ +0.000001] ft260_i2c_read: rep 0xc2 addr 0x51 len 120 rlen 60 flag 0x0 [ +0.008794] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.000181] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x40, clock 100 [ +0.000002] ft260_i2c_read: rep 0xc2 addr 0x51 len 60 rlen 60 flag 0x4 [ +0.008817] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.000223] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x20, clock 100 After: [ +11.611642] ft260_i2c_write_read: off 0x0 rlen 180 wlen 2 [ +0.000005] ft260_i2c_write: rep 0xd0 addr 0x51 off 0 len 2 wlen 2 flag 0x2 d[0] 0x0 [ +0.008001] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x20, clock 100 [ +0.000001] ft260_i2c_read: rep 0xc2 addr 0x51 len 180 rlen 180 flag 0x7 [ +0.008994] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.007987] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.007992] ft260_raw_event: i2c resp: rep 0xde len 60 [ +0.000206] ft260_xfer_status: bus_status 0x20, clock 100 Suggested-by: Enrik Berkhan <Enrik.Berkhan@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Michael Zaidman <michael.zaidman@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/hid/hid-ft260.c | 17 ++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/hid/hid-ft260.c b/drivers/hid/hid-ft260.c index a354089bb747..91f9087e49dc 100644 --- a/drivers/hid/hid-ft260.c +++ b/drivers/hid/hid-ft260.c @@ -30,12 +30,19 @@ MODULE_PARM_DESC(debug, "Toggle FT260 debugging messages"); #define FT260_REPORT_MAX_LENGTH (64) #define FT260_I2C_DATA_REPORT_ID(len) (FT260_I2C_REPORT_MIN + (len - 1) / 4) + /* - * The input report format assigns 62 bytes for the data payload, but ft260 - * returns 60 and 2 in two separate transactions.
