Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] Input: add support for OnePlus/OPPO Pad pogo-pin keyboards
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 08:52:49 -0500 [thread overview]

This series adds support for the magnetic pogo-pin smart keyboards of
the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro / Pad 4 and the OPPO Pad 5 Pro. The keyboard is
built around a Tinno MCU attached to a tablet UART. Both sides share a
single data wire, so the host gates its transmission onto the bus with a
PMIC GPIO for the duration of a frame, and every host frame is echoed
back on RX.
The MCU speaks a framed "one wire bus" protocol over the half-duplex
921600 8N1 UART: 8x 0x55 preamble, 0xF1, src/dst addresses, command,
length, payload, CRC16-IBM (poly 0x8005, init 0xC596), 0xFE and 4x 0xAA.
The protocol was reverse engineered from the vendor kernel driver; this
is a clean-room serdev reimplementation that replaces the downstream
platform driver, which depends on a private msm_geni_serial callback and
a user-space held tty fd.
The core protocol (framing, keys, touchpad, sync/heartbeat) has been
carried unchanged across four SoC generations of this MCU, from the
sm8550 era keyboards to the sm8850 ones covered here; only the 0x3A
general sub-commands grew over time. Patch 1 adds the DT binding,
patch 2 the driver.
Changes in v3:
- the compatible names the tablet project the pogo port belongs to
(oneplus,caihong- / erhai- / iceland-pogo-keyboard, the codenames
used by the vendor trees) instead of a DT property, and the
driver carries a per-project description in the OF match data:
feature flags gate each 0x3A general sub-command (caihong, sm8650
era, has no wake notification and no backlight; erhai, sm8750 era,
adds the wake notification; iceland, sm8850 era, adds the keyboard
backlight), while the touchpad geometry and the per-brand product
names are per-project constants - the wake notification is skipped
and the backlight LED only registered where supported;
- the touchpad geometry and product names are no longer DT properties:
they are fixed per project and live in the driver; the common
touchscreen properties (touchscreen-size-x/y, touchscreen-x-mm/y-mm)
remain as an optional override, parsed with
touchscreen_parse_properties().
Changes in v2, addressing Krzysztof Kozlowski's review of the binding:
- dropped the redundant "binding" from the dt-bindings subject;
- replaced the custom oneplus,touchpad-xy-max/-resolution properties
with the common touchscreen properties: the MCU protocol has no way
to query the touchpad geometry and the same MCU is shipped in
keyboards with different touchpad matrices;
- dropped the serial wrapper node from the binding example;
- the MAINTAINERS entry added with the binding references only the
binding file; the driver F: line is added together with the driver
patch.
Tested on the OnePlus Pad 4 (iceland) running Linux 7.2.0-sm8850
(v7.2-based iceland tree).
