I'm not sure whether you misses the previous answers from Dmitry
Torokhov and Rob Herring, but they suggested to add a new device-tree
property which should specify the atmel,wakeup-method.

I think Rob Herring prefers for the compatible solution than property.

Actually, seems you're right. But I'm not sure now whether he just made
a typo, because it's actually a board-specific option.

Right, I think since it is a board specific issue,
so "property" is the preferred way,
if I understand you correctly,
compatible combine with property is what you are suggesting, right?

It could be more preferred to skip the i2c_smbus_xfer() for the NONE
variant, but it also should be harmless in practice. I guess we indeed
could keep the current variant of yours patch and then add a clarifying
comment to the commit message and to the code, telling that
i2c_smbus_xfer() is harmless in a case of the hardwired WAKE-LINE.

I will skip dummy read for "NONE" variant.

There are 3 possible variants:

   - NONE
   - GPIO
   - I2C-SCL

Hence we should bail out from mxt_wake() if method is set to NONE or
GPIO.

for "GPIO", we still need 25 ms sleep. but rather than a dummy read,
WAKE line need to be asserted before sleep.

Correct, I just meant to bail out because GPIO is currently unsupported.


OK

...
  static int mxt_initialize(struct mxt_data *data)
  {
      struct i2c_client *client = data->client;
      int recovery_attempts = 0;
      int error;
  +    mxt_wake(data);
+
      while (1) {

I assume the mxt_wake() should be placed here, since there is a 3
seconds timeout in the end of the while-loop, meaning that device may
get back into deep-sleep on a retry.

Can you elaborate a little more why exit from bootload mode after sleep
for 3 second could enter deep-sleep mode.

The loop attempts to exit from bootload mode and then I suppose
mxt_read_info_block() may fail if I2C "accidentally" fails, hence the
deep-sleep mode still will be enabled on a retry.

The datasheet says that there are 2 seconds since the time of the last
I2C access before TS is put back into auto-sleep if deep-sleep mode is
enabled. The wait-loop has msleep(3000).

OK, thanks for the clarification

Thanks,
