Status in OEM Priority Project:

Fix Released
Status in iio-sensor-proxy source package in Focal:

Bug description:
We are encountering issues, that when enabling some Dell laptops, the readings
from iio-poll-als are unstable, or could freeze on certain value. On these
systems they have ENV{IIO_SENSOR_PROXY_TYPE}="iio-poll-als iio-buffer-als",
and
removing iio-poll-als makes reading stable.
This adds workaround to the affected Dell laptop models which may equip with
ALS.
[Impact]
* Only models matching the same device BIOS IDs are affected.
[Test Plan]
* Pick devices which BIOS IDs are listed in the patch, and test
whether it's ambient light sensors are working properly without
unexpected brightness flickers.
[Where problems could occur]
* Machines matching the same BIOS ID, either having ALS built-in or
not, but attached ambient light sensors externally (for example,
ColorHug ALS) might experience failures.

Tested with Dell machine (202203-30028) which has problem ambient light
sensor. Import iio-sensor-proxy 2.8-1ubuntu2 from -proposed channel.
With iio-sensor-proxy debug turned on, iio-sensor-proxy use buffer ALS
to read light sensor value. Execute monitor-sensor can check ambient
light sensor working properly

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1963628] Re: Force IIO_SENSOR_PROXY_TYPE to iio-buffer-als for some Dell models
Hello Yao, or anyone else affected,
Accepted iio-sensor-proxy into focal-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iio-sensor-
proxy/2.8-1ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance for helping!
N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
Force IIO_SENSOR_PROXY_TYPE to iio-buffer-als for some Dell models
Status in iio-sensor-proxy package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
We are encountering issues, that when enabling some Dell laptops, the readings
from iio-poll-als are unstable, or could freeze on certain value. On these
systems they have ENV{IIO_SENSOR_PROXY_TYPE}="iio-poll-als iio-buffer-als",
and
removing iio-poll-als makes reading stable.
This adds workaround to the affected Dell laptop models which may equip with
ALS.
[Impact]
* Only models matching the same device BIOS IDs are affected.
[Test Plan]
* Pick devices which BIOS IDs are listed in the patch, and test
whether it's ambient light sensors are working properly without
unexpected brightness flickers.
[Where problems could occur]
* Machines matching the same BIOS ID, either having ALS built-in or
not, but attached ambient light sensors externally (for example,
ColorHug ALS) might experience failures.

It's their hardware limitation that vendors are unable to handle.

This is debdiff for iio-sensor-proxy for jammy, which is also based on
the same version in impish.

Thanks for the report. Is it fixed in newer series of Ubuntu? If not we
need to start by the devel one
> the readings from iio-poll-als are unstable, or could freeze on
certain value
isn't that the real issue? is that an hardware or firmware bug? could it
be fixed rather than worked around in udev rules?
