Yes, I did try a similar way to set a retry limit which also works
basically, code is like this
@@ -169,6 +169,7 @@ static irqreturn_t tsc2007_soft_irq(int irq, void *handle)
struct tsc2007 *ts = handle;
struct input_dev *input = ts->input;
struct ts_event tc;
+ u32 max_retry = 2;
u32 rt;
while (!ts->stopped && tsc2007_is_pen_down(ts)) {
@@ -206,6 +207,8 @@ static irqreturn_t tsc2007_soft_irq(int irq, void *handle)
* repeat at least once more the measurement.
*/
dev_dbg(&ts->client->dev, "ignored pressure %d\n", rt);
+ if (!--max_retry)
+ break;
}
But I still have some concerns:
1. How many retries should we try? the tsc2007_read_values() will take about 70 ms
on our platform, plus the "poll_period", one retry will take about 100ms.
2. I checked the noise data, its z1 value is always in a range from 9 to 13, while
the real data's z1 is always bigger than 300. So I think there is a very clear gap
to tell the noise data from valid data by z1 value.
How do you think about it?
Thanks,
Feng
