[PATCH v4 0/9] arm64: mediatek: Chromebook trackpad supply fixes

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

Hi everyone,

This is v4 of my Chromebook trackpad supply fixes and optimization
series.

Changes since v3:
- Added __private modified to regulator_bulk_data.wait_us field and
  switched to ACCESS_PRIVATE accessor for the field (Andy)
- Moved wait outside regulator lock scope (Sashiko)
- Moved "remaining" value assignment closer to conditional (Andy)
- Fixed variable unit name in regulator_enable_and_wait() prototype
  (Andy, Sashiko)
- Added commit message section showing average delay needed for I2C
  prober (patch 6) (Andy)
- Link to v3:
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260721075226.2347933-1-wenst@chromium.org/

Changes since v2:
- Added new regulator "enable and wait" functions that wait until at
  least the given amount of time has passed since the regulator was
  last enabled.
- Converted patches to use the new functions
- New header inclusion cleanup patch for elan_i2c driver

This series fixes the trackpad descriptions on some MediaTek-based
Chromebooks: either the trackpad's supply was set as always-on to
workaround missing delays in the driver, or the delay and supply
are missing from the trackpad's device node.

v1 was just the first patch [1]. It has since grown to cover multiple
drivers and devices.


Patch 1 adds new "enable and wait" functions for single and bulk
regulator enable.

Patch 2 cleans up header inclusion for elan_i2c driver.

Patch 3 adds the correct enable delay after enabling the supply regulator
for the Elan trackpad to initialize. This uses the new "enable and wait"
regulator enable function.

Patch 4 applies the same logic of skipping the power on delay to the
i2c-hid-of driver.

Patch 5 applies the same logic of skipping the power on delay to the
i2c OF component prober library.

Patch 6 adds a delay between when the device node found is enabled and
when regulator_disable() is called. This gives an asynchronously probing
driver some time to increment the enable count of their regulator
reference, thus keeping the device operational and allowing the driver
to skip the initialization delay.

Patch 7 adds the correct delay for probing trackpads for Hana devices
to the ChromeOS OF component prober.

Patch 8 removes the "always-on" setting from the trackpad supply for
Elm / Hana and adds the correct delay to the second source trackpad.
This corrects the hardware description.

Patch 9 adds the supply and power on delay properties to the Synaptics
trackpad on the Spherion device. Combined with previous driver changes
this should cause no actual functional changes or delays.


Please take a look. Patches 3, 4, and 5 have build time dependencies
on patch 1. I suggest placing patch 1 on a separate immutable branch
or tag for the other maintainers to pull in. The three patches all have
different maintainers. Or if it's not too late, Mark could take patch
1 for v7.3-rc1 and the rest can go in later.

The DT changes must go in after all the driver changes land, especially
patch 3 that adds delays to the Elan trackpad driver. Otherwise the user
could potentially end up with a non-functional trackpad on the device.


Thanks
ChenYu

[PATCH v4 1/9] regulator: core: Add "enable and wait" functions

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

In device power sequencing and initialization use cases, it is common
for the driver to enable the regulator and then wait for a certain
period of time to pass before continuing.

In cases where the regulator supply is always on, or has been turned on
or left on by another consumer, the driver could shorten the delay or
skip it altogether, provided that enough time has already passed since
the regulator was _actually_ turned on.

Tracking this requires support from the regulator core. Introduce a
"last turned on" timestamp field to the regulator device, and "enable
and wait" functions to the single and bulk regulator consumer APIs.
The existing "enable without wait" functions are then converted to
macros that expand to the new functions.

One case in particular is not optimized yet: a regulator left on either
by hardware reset default or by the bootloader, but does not have the
"regulator-boot-on" property set. As the enable timestamp only gets
updated when enabled by a consumer or by the core, the first enablement
always needs to wait.

[PATCH v4 3/9] Input: elan_i2c - Wait for initialization after enabling regulator supply

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

Elan trackpad controllers require some delay after enabling power to
the controller for the hardware and firmware to initialize:

  - 2ms for hardware initialization
  - 100ms for firmware initialization

Until then, the hardware will not respond to I2C transfers. This was
observed on the MT8173 Chromebooks after the regulator supply for the
trackpad was changed to "not always on".

Switch to the new regulator_enable_and_wait(). This makes sure that
enough time has passed since the regulator was first enabled, satisfying
the power sequencing delay requirement. This allows the delay to be
skipped if the regulator supply was already enabled by some other part
of the kernel, such as the I2C OF component prober.

[PATCH v4 4/9] HID: i2c-hid-of: skip post-power-on delay if powered on sufficiently long

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

On some devices the HID device is powered from an always-on power rail,
or the power rail has been left on by either POR defaults or the
bootloader. By the time the driver probes, the device most certainly
has finished initializing. There is no need for the delay.

In such designs, the system integrators tend to work around the delay
to avoid the boot time penalty by simply omitting it from the device
tree. This is undesired, as the device tree is not fully describing
the hardware.

Switch to the new regulator_bulk_enable_and_wait() function that makes
sure a certain amount of time has passed since the regulator supplies
were actually enabled.

rail, or the power rail has been left on by either POR defaults or
the bootloader. By the time the prober probes the device, the device
most certainly has finished initializing and can respond. There is no
need for the delay.

In such designs, the system integrators tend to work around the delay
to avoid the boot time penalty by simply omitting it from the device
tree and the component prober. This is undesired, as the device tree
is not fully describing the hardware.

Switch to the new regulator_enable_and_wait() function that makes sure
a certain amount of time has passed since the regulator supply was
actually enabled.

[PATCH v4 6/9] i2c: of-prober: Defer regulator_disable() on successful probe in simple helper

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

When a I2C component is found, it's device node is immediately enabled.
This triggers device creation and driver binding. The prober will hold
the regulator enable reference across this part. If the driver probes
synchronously, then it happens within this window. On the other hand,
if the driver probes asynchronously, there is high chance that it
happens after the prober's cleanup function was called, in which case
the regulator would have been disabled when the driver's probe function
is called. This would then require the driver to wait 100 ms for the
hardware to reinitialize, even if the probe function was just a split
second late and the regulator was disabled a few milliseconds ago.

Recently, some of the drivers for the component that are targeted by the
I2C OF component prober gained the ability to skip waiting for hardware
initialization if the regulator was left enabled. This happens when the
PMIC has them on by default, or if the component prober left them on
after probing the component.

Tests on the Hana Chromebook showed that if the prober and trackpad
drivers are both builtin, then the time between the prober enabling the
device node and the trackpad driver asynchronously probing is between
5 ms and 30 ms, though sometimes there are outliers exceeding 100 ms.

Wait 100 ms before dropping the enable refcount on our end so that the
actual driver has the opportunity to catch and increase the refcount on
their end.

[PATCH v4 7/9] platform/chrome: of_hw_prober: Add delay for hana trackpads

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

Up until now, the MT8173 elm/hana device tree has set the dedicated
regulator supplying the trackpad as always-on, simply because the Elan
driver was missing proper delays. As a result the delay for the
Synaptics trackpad was also omitted, as it was not strictly required
under such a model and delayed the availability of the trackpad to the
user.

The Elan driver recently gained proper delays after power-up, with
adaptive skipping of the delay if the regulator was originally
on. The I2C HID driver and I2C OF component prober library gained
similar adaptive delay skipping. The device tree will be fixed to have
the regulator not be always on, and proper post-power-on delay time
added to the I2C HID device.

Also add the post-power-on delay to the ChromeOS OF component prober,
so that if the regulator is off at the time of probing, the prober knows
to wait for the hardware to initialize.

[PATCH v4 8/9] arm64: dts: mediatek: mt8173-elm-hana: Unmark trackpad supply as always-on

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

Up until now, the MT8173 elm/hana device tree has set the dedicated
regulator supplying the trackpad as always-on, simply because the Elan
driver was missing proper delays. As a result the delay for the
Synaptics trackpad was also omitted, as it was not strictly required

The Elan driver recently gained proper delays after power up, with
opportunistic skipping of the delay when the regulator was originally
on. The I2C HID driver gained similar opportunistic delay skipping.
So has the I2C OF component prober library.

Now fix the device tree to have the regulator not be always on, and
let the I2C HID device have the correct post-power-on delay time.

[PATCH v4 9/9] arm64: dts: mediatek: mt8192-asurada-spherion: Add Synaptics trackpad's supply

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

The Synaptics trackpad, like the Elan trackpad option, is fed from the
system 3.3V power rail. Add it to the trackpad device node.

Also add the correct post-power-on delay, even though in practice it is
not required. The Synaptics trackpad requires 100ms after power-on (or
deasserting the reset, whichever comes later) to fully initialize. The
power is always on and the reset pin is not routed out, so the
implementation could try skipping the delay.

I think this shouldn't be backported, as backporting it without the
driver enhancements just delays the trackpad probing with no real
gains.

Please don't bury core changes for subsystems in the middle of random
other serieses, this is the first time I've seen this.  :(

Just take a timestamp during registration if the regulator is enabled,
we check if it's enabled anyway so we may as well take that as the last
time the enable happened.
