[PATCH] HID: multitouch: Fetch feature reports on demand for Win8 devices

From: Mika Westerberg
Date: Mon Sep 28 2015 - 10:47:27 EST


Some newer Intel Skylake based Dell laptops with Win8 precision touchpad
fail when initial feature reports are fetched from it. Below is an example
output with some additional debug included:

i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: Fetching the HID descriptor
i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=20 00

i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: __i2c_hid_command: cmd=22 00 34 02 23 00

We manage to fetch few reports but then the touchpad dies:

i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: i2c_dw_handle_tx_abort: lost arbitration
i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to retrieve report from device.

it eventually pulls the whole I2C bus low:

i2c_designware i2c_designware.1: controller timed out
i2c_hid i2c-DLL0704:01: failed to set a report to device.

Fix this by preventing initial feature report retrieval for Win8 devices.
Instead we fetch reports as needed in mt_feature_mapping(). This prevents
fetching reports which might cause problems with the device in question.

This is a second version. The first one which just prevented initial report
reading can be found here:

This version tries to do what Benjamin suggested by reading feature values
as needed in mt_feature_mapping(). This fixes the issue in the Dell laptop
I have here.
