Subject: [PATCH] iio: proximity: vl53l0x: notify trigger and clear IRQ on error paths
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 00:31:19 +0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260513193119.17884-1-sozdayvek@gmail.com> (raw)

vl53l0x_trigger_handler() returns directly on the I2C read failure
paths without calling iio_trigger_notify_done() or
vl53l0x_clear_irq():

	ret = i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data(...);
	if (ret < 0)
		return ret;
	else if (ret != 12)
		return -EREMOTEIO;

A single transient i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() failure (negative
errno or a short read) therefore leaves two pieces of state behind:

  - iio_trigger_notify_done() never decrements the trigger's use_count,
    so iio_trigger_poll_nested() silently drops further dispatches
    (see industrialio-trigger.c, the !atomic_read(&trig->use_count)
    guard);
  - vl53l0x_clear_irq() never writes SYSTEM_INTERRUPT_CLEAR, so the
    chip keeps the DRDY interrupt asserted.

The sensor's buffer mode stays wedged from then on, recoverable only
by re-binding the driver. The sibling driver vl53l1x-i2c.c handles
exactly the same case correctly by jumping to a "notify_and_clear_irq"
label that always calls both helpers; mirror that here.

The bogus negative-int return value cast to irqreturn_t also goes
away as a side effect.
