Right. > The pin itself is a reset pin that must (as defined by rfc2119) be asserted during Linux boot (it controls > the reset logic of a soc external device), the polarity is active low, which is why it's configured with a PullDown. And here is the issue AFAICS. The Active low should be configured with PullUp and set to whatever BIOS wants. Correct me if I'm wrong, but code does the following in the properly configured DSDT: 0/ (not OS) firmware prepares ACPI DSDT with parameters (see 2/) and sets pin to active state - electrical low; 1/ we request GPIO via gpiod_get(..., GPIOD_ASIS); 2/ ACPI provides: IoOutput + Active Low + PullUp; 3/ above is translated to GPIO flags = GPIOD_OUT_HIGH and look up flags = GPIO_PULL_UP | GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW; 4/ ...which calls gpiod_direction_output() with value = 1 and being inverted to 0 due to Active Low in the descriptor flags; 5/ 0, i.e. electrically low signal, comes out from the SoC (compare with 0/ above). If it's not, we need to fix a root cause of it. > Also we discussed here about using IoRestrictionNone/IoRestrictionNonePreserve as a potential solution to > this problem, but this is a pure output pin, so that didn't seem right to us either. > > In the end the main question, no matter the use case, is how an active low pin, that's being > asserted from BIOS, should be configured in the DSDT to be correctly represented by the code. > The patch was the result of not finding any solution to the problem above. Speaking strictly of the > patch it should solve the problem of this case of active-low pins. P.S. Before we are going further we need to see the dmesg when CONFIG_DEBUG_GPIO is set along with GpioIo() macro and corresponding _DSD() excerpts from DSDT. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
