Hi Duje, thanks for your patch!

BUT: the signal is now inverted in gpiolib, so the spitz_ads7846_wait_for_hsync() loops needs to be rewritten inverted, because the value from gpiod_get_value() now means "asserted" if high. /* Wait while de-asserted */ while (!gpiod_get_value(hsync)) cpu_relax(); /* Wait while asserted */ while (gpiod_get_value(hsync)) cpu_relax(); return; Right? > @@ -622,8 +626,13 @@ static void __init spitz_spi_init(void) > > gpiod_add_lookup_table(&spitz_ads7846_gpio_table); > gpiod_add_lookup_table(&spitz_spi_gpio_table); > + hsync = gpiod_get(NULL, "hsync", GPIOD_IN); You are getting the gpiod from device NULL which is probably correct when you do this in the board file. But the spitz_ads7846_gpio_table where you put the descriptor is associated with the ads7846 device so this will not work. You either have to add a one-gpio table just for this, or (better) move the whole spitz_ads7846_wait_for_hsync() down into the touchscreen driver instead, so the device driver can (optionally) obtain this gpio and deal with it. Which is easy because: [linus@Fecusia linux-nomadik]$ git grep ads7846_platform_data Documentation/spi/spi-summary.rst: static struct ads7846_platform_data ads_info = { arch/arm/mach-pxa/spitz.c:static struct ads7846_platform_data spitz_ads7846_info = { arch/mips/alchemy/devboards/db1000.c:static struct ads7846_platform_data db1100_touch_pd = { arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/pdm360ng.c:static struct ads7846_platform_data pdm360ng_ads7846_pdata = { Only three users in the kernel, and sptiz is the only one using the void (*wait_for_sync)(void) callback in ads7846_platform_data! So delete that callback from ads7846_platform_data in include/linux/spi/ads7846.h and augment drivers/input/touchscreen/ads7846.c to get the GPIO optionally with gpiod_get_optional() from the device, then copy the code from spitz_ads7846_wait_for_hsync() right into the driver and make sure it gets called if and only if the "hsync" gpio exists.
