Thank you for suggesting this approach! It seems it would add a bit of complexity to detect this situation which could introduce other bugs. I did a experiment of creating a kthread that will loop forever and found the rebooting process wasn't stalled. I don't expect user to load this module. So the end user could not notice this problem so my rationale is invalid. Thus I would be prefer to check `kthread_should_stop()` in the inner while loop instead. >> >> + i2c_hid_get_input(ihid); >> >> + usleep_range(polling_interval_active_us, >> >> + polling_interval_active_us + 100); >> >> + } >> >> + >> >> + usleep_range(polling_interval_idle, >> >> + polling_interval_idle + 1000); >> >> +

Hi, Thank you for examine this patch in such a careful way! On Fri, Oct 16, 2020 at 03:00:49PM +, Barnabás Pőcze wrote: Hi, I still think that `i2c_hid_resume()` and `i2c_hid_suspend()` are asymmetric and that might lead to issues. Do you think this commit message is relevant to your concern? $ git show d1c48038b849e9df0475621a52193a62424a4e87 commit d1c48038b849e9df0475621a52193a62424a4e87 HID: i2c-hid: Only disable irq wake if it was successfully enabled during suspend Enabling irq wake could potentially fail and calling disable_irq_wake after a failed call to enable_irq_wake could result in an unbalanced irq warning. This patch warns if enable_irq_wake fails and avoids other potential issues caused by calling disable_irq_wake on resume after enable_irq_wake failed during suspend. So I think all cases about irq have been handled. But for the regulator part, you are right. I made a mistake. [...] When polling mode is enabled, an I2C device can't wake up the suspended system since enable/disable_irq_wake is invalid for polling mode. Excuse my ignorance, but could you elaborate this because I am not sure I understand. Aren't the two things orthogonal (polling and waking up the system)? Waking up the system depends on irq. Since we use polling, we don't set up irq. [...] #define I2C_HID_PWR_ON 0x00 #define I2C_HID_PWR_SLEEP 0x01 +/* polling mode */ +#define I2C_POLLING_DISABLED 0 +#define I2C_POLLING_GPIO_PIN 1 This is a very small detail, but I personally think that these defines should be called I2C_HID_ since they are only used here. Thank you!

[PATCH v2] HID: i2c-hid: add polling mode based on connected GPIO chip's pin status
For a broken touchpad, it may take several months or longer to be fixed. Polling mode could be a fallback solution for enthusiastic Linux users when they have a new laptop. It also acts like a debugging feature. If polling mode works for a broken touchpad, we can almost be certain the root cause is related to the interrupt or power setting. When polling mode is enabled, an I2C device can't wake up the suspended system since enable/disable_irq_wake is invalid for polling mode. Three module parameters are added to i2c-hid, - polling_mode: by default set to 0, i.e., polling is disabled - polling_interval_idle_ms: the polling internal when the touchpad is idle, default to 10ms - polling_interval_active_us: the polling internal when the touchpad is active, default to 4000us User can change the last two runtime polling parameter by writing to /sys/module/i2c_hid/parameters/polling_interval_{idle_ms,active_us}.
