Following commit 036e126c72eb ("pinctrl: intel: Split
intel_pinctrl_add_padgroups() for better maintenance"),
gpiochip_get_desc() is broken on some Kaby Lake R devices (specifically
a Microsoft Surface Book 2), returning -EINVAL for GPIOs that in reality
should be there (they are defined in ACPI and have been accessible
previously). Due to this, gpiod_get() fails with -ENOENT.

Reverting this commit fixes that issue and the GPIOs in question are
accessible again.

I would like to have more information.
Can you enable PINCTRL and GPIO debug options in the kernel, and show dmesg
output (when kernel command line has 'ignore_loglevel' option) for both working
and non-working cases?

Also if it's possible to have DSDT.dsl of the device in question along with
output of `grep -H 15 /sys/bus/acpi/devices/*/status`.

There is probably a better option than straight up reverting this, so
consider this more of a bug-report.

Indeed.


Can you test if the below helps (probably you have to apply it by editing
the file manually):

--- a/drivers/pinctrl/intel/pinctrl-intel.c
+++ b/drivers/pinctrl/intel/pinctrl-intel.c
@@ -1392,6 +1392,7 @@ static int intel_pinctrl_add_padgroups_by_size(struct intel_pinctrl *pctrl,
gpps[i].size = min(gpp_size, npins);
npins -= gpps[i].size;
+ gpps[i].gpio_base = gpps[i].base;
gpps[i].padown_num = padown_num;


That does fix the issue! Thanks for the fast response and fix!
