This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled power: supply: max17042: Do not enforce (incorrect) interrupt trigger type to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: power-supply-max17042-do-not-enforce-incorrect-inter.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit ea8ccd1d3e2c5507309fefd66d21c307d66fe93b Author: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed May 26 13:20:35 2021 -0400 power: supply: max17042: Do not enforce (incorrect) interrupt trigger type [ Upstream commit 7fbf6b731bca347700e460d94b130f9d734b33e9 ] Interrupt line can be configured on different hardware in different way, even inverted. Therefore driver should not enforce specific trigger type - edge falling - but instead rely on Devicetree to configure it. The Maxim 17047/77693 datasheets describe the interrupt line as active low with a requirement of acknowledge from the CPU therefore the edge falling is not correct. The interrupt line is shared between PMIC and RTC driver, so using level sensitive interrupt is here especially important to avoid races. With an edge configuration in case if first PMIC signals interrupt followed shortly after by the RTC, the interrupt might not be yet cleared/acked thus the second one would not be noticed.
