[PATCH] Input: i8042 - i8042_flush fix for a full 8042 buffer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When 8042 internal data buffer is full, the driver
erroneously decides that the controller is not present.

I've already sent this 2 weeks ago, but that message received no comments.

i8042_flush returns the number of flushed bytes, which is
in 0 - I8042_BUFFER_SIZE range inclusive. Therefore, i8042_flush
has no way to indicate an error. Moreover i8042_controller_check
takes initially full buffer (i8042_flush returned
I8042_BUFFER_SIZE) as a sign of absence of the controller.

The fix:
i8042_flush should perform one more status check after
I8042_BUFFER_SIZE bytes have been read, and, if it succeeds,
indicate the error by returning -1. i8042_controller_check
should be changed appropriately.
