This doesn't really have anything related to keys, and can be used
purely as an ADC.

I know this is the compatible that was used for the A10, but I'd
rather drop the keys for the the new compatible.

Thanks!

Hi,
LRADC is named KEYADC in some other SoCs' User Manual(such as R40 User
Manual V1.0), thus LRADC is related to keys.

Without keys there is another driver named sun4i-gpadc-iio which is
located at driver/iio/adc/sun4i-gpadc-iio.c

Is my understanding right?

Nope. The general purpose LRADC driver still doesn't land in mainline,
and this driver is for the GPADC related to thermal and resistive
touch screen.

However, the LRADC is possible to be used in general purpose, and
more and more boards are wiring the LRADC pin as a pin on the pinout
(e.g. Pine64 and Lichee Pi Zero) and it may be useful.

And the hardware is not bound to keys -- it's only the Allwinner
reference design which bind the LRADC to keys. Device vendors can
change it if needed.

So it's suggested to have a binding without "-keys".

Maxime, here's another problem: if we have already a GP LRADC driver,
how can we tell the kernel to use it as IIO ADC rather than keys?
Should we introduce a new property for this once ready?

It's still called LRADC on the A83T, so we'll use that name. If we
ever need another compatible for the R40, then yes, keyadc would make
sense in that case.

The GPADC IIO driver is not for the LRADC driver, but the GPADC /
temperature sensor.

We used to have an LRADC IIO driver in the CHIP BSP written by Alex
(in CC):
https://github.com/NextThingCo/CHIP-linux/commit/8675b761c54be73dc7cc0113209f02e10cc63a27

But he never mainlined it.

> Should we introduce a new property for this once ready?

We need to keep the current binding. We can just check for the
presence or not of child nodes to see if it has some keys, and we'd
need an IIO-to-input driver that is yet to be written.

The whole submission is here and can already replace the existing driver
but it will be polling instead of using interrupts:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2016-July/440734.html

It is not upstream because it seems the full replacement was required at
once instead of doing it incrementally and there was (is) no API for
in-kernel events consumers.

Also, the DT ABI stuff would have to be solved.

Hi,

So... whether to use "sun4i-lradc" to replace "sun4i-lradc-keys"?

I think it should be separated, one is the input subsystem, the other
is the iio subsystem.

Yes, then we need an iio-to-input driver...
So...whether the driver(a83t lradc keys) can be applied now,
or we should wait for the iio-to-input driver.

I was just talking about your compatible here, and was basically
suggesting to do sed 's/sun8i-a83t-r-lradc-keys/sun8i-a83t-r-lradc/',
that's all.

This is a long term discussion, it shouldn't hold the patches you

OK, I get it.

And I will think about how to implement the iio-to-input driver.

Can we move on with this patch series? It's a few years and it doesn't seem that
there is any interest/progress with lradc iio based driver, and merging this
wouldn't block that effort anyway (as suggested in other replies).

I can re-send the series with the changed compatible name, and add a mainline
user of this driver (A83T based TBS-A711 tablet).

Any objections?

regards,
	o.
