[PATCH] HID: multitouch: Do not fetch initial feature reports for Win8 devices

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

 



Some newer Intel Skylake based Dell laptops with Win8 precision touchpad
fail when initial feature reports are fetched from it. Below is an
example output with some additional debug included:

 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: Fetching the HID descriptor
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=20 00
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: HID Descriptor: 1e 00 00 01 99 02 21 00 24 ...
 ...

 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=22 00 38 02 23 00
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: report (len=4): 04 00 08 05
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: report id 13
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: i2c_hid_get_report
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=22 00 3d 02 23 00
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to retrieve report from device.
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: report id 7
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: i2c_hid_get_report
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=22 00 37 02 23 00
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: report (len=259): 03 01 07 fc 28 fe 84 40 ...
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: report id 4
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: i2c_hid_get_report
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=22 00 34 02 23 00

We manage to fetch few reports but then the touchpad dies:

 i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: i2c_dw_handle_tx_abort: lost arbitration
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to retrieve report from device.

it eventually pulls the whole I2C bus low:

 i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: controller timed out
 i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to set a report to device.

Fix this by preventing initial feature report fetch for Win8 devices. It
should not be needed anyway according to [1] because the two "GET"
feature reports for these devices are about device capabilities and Win8
certification status which are not related to input events.
