In this case we have some platforms that declare the interrupt pin first and others that declare the reset pin first. There is no way to differentiate between them so the only way to support these platforms is to pick a default and list all exceptions in the driver. My previous implementation did that with indexed gpios and dmi quirks. [1] This can be solved by using named gpios, which are available starting with ACPI 5.1. In this way we know exactly which is the interrupt pin and which is the reset pin and we do not need to add any additional exceptions to the driver. However, we still need to support the platforms that are already out there so we fall back to indexed gpios.

I agree with you on this, but unfortunately I have not found a better way to do it. The main problem comes from the interrupt pin. This device uses the interrupt pin as output, which some platforms do not support (either due to the HW configuration or due to flagging it wrong in BIOS) [2] [3]. There is no error returned, just a warning in dmesg.

However, this will not work for platforms that are already out and for which we cannot modify the ACPI table (like Onda v975w, WinBook TW100 and WinBook TW700). > > + /* HIGH: 0x28/0x29, LOW: 0xBA/0xBB */ > > + error = gpiod_direction_output(ts->gpiod_int, ts->client->addr == 0x14); > > + if (error) > > + return error; > > If the "interrupt" gpio is used as an output, maybe it has the wrong > name?

The pin that is used for receiving interrupts is also used as output (for reset and suspend procedures).
