Headset driver detection problem during bootup

Headset driver detection problem during bootup

[anish singh]

I need some suggestions for below situation:

Headset if it is inserted before the device is powered up is
now detected by forcefully calling the interrupt handler in
the probe function of the headset driver.
Once the handler is called then we find out if the headset
is there or not using gpio and then normal detection happens

Is it the right way to detect the device during power-up?

After the device is powered up and then if we insert headset
then it is working fine by calling the interrupt handler and
everything goes fine.

linux -2.3.5
Android Device

adding more information and experts on alsa.

Headset is detected in our andorid device by using a detect gpio
 which is turned on when headset is inserted.If the headset
 is inserted right from very beginging i.e. before device is even
 turned on then we forcefully call the handler and thereby in
 handler we check if gpio is turned on or not and do the rest
of things.

Does not linux have any other way of doing this which i may
be missing? How this is handled in the case of ALSA jack i.e.
the jack drivers which is using alsa framework for detection?
Android doesn't use ALSA framework for reporting JACK.

Judging from the source code, the likely problem is that the driver
doesn't initialize the switch-state in input device.  The switch-state
is updated only when GPIO IRQ comes up.

Absolutely right.During bootup we check the gpio and if we find out
that the headset is inserted then we update the switch.In Android
updating the switch is nothing but updating some sysfs file and
generating uevent AFAIK.

The standard soc-jack code should already be reading the state of the
GPIO as part of its startup.
