[PATCH v2 00/10] Fix Elan I2C touchpads in latest generation from Lenovo

[Benjamin Tissoires]

Hi,

This is the v2 from https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/10/12/633

So I initially thought it would be easy to integrate the suggested changes
in the v1, but it turns our that the changes to have the touchscreen-width
and height parameters were quite hard to do.

I finally postponed the issue by blacklisting the 2 laptops we knew were
not working and tried to devote more time to understand both drivers more.

But it s the time where Lenovo is preparing the new models, and guess what,
they suffer from the same symptoms.

So I took a few time to work on this and finally got my head around the
width and height problem. Once I got it, it was simple clear, but this also
means we can not really rely on a device tree property for that.

So in the elan* drivers, the "traces" are simply how many antennas there
are on each axis. Which means that if a trace of 4 is reported in the
events, it means it is simply seen by 4 antennas. So the computation of the
width/height is the following: we take how many antennas there are, we
subtract one to have the number of holes between the antennas, and we
divide the number of unit we have in the axis by the value we just
computed.
This gives a rough 4mm on the P52, in both directions.

And once you get that, you can just realize that the unit of the width and
height are just the same than the X and Y coordinates, so we can apply the
same resolution.

So, in the end, that means that elan_i2c needs the information, or it will
not be able to convert the number of crossed antennas into a size, but this
is something specific to this touchpad.

So here come, 7 months later the v2 on the subject.

Cheers,
Benjamin
