Subject: [PATCH 13/15] iio: proximity: sx9500: hand on probe deferral of GPIOs
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2026 17:19:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261027-llm-char-misc-iio-v1-13-0d818334f6c7@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261027-llm-char-misc-iio-v1-0-0d818334f6c7@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>
sx9500_gpio_probe() treats every failure of devm_gpiod_get() as "the
line does not exist". If the GPIO controller has not been probed yet,
the lookup fails with -EPROBE_DEFER, and the driver binds for good
without the line:
- without the "interrupt" GPIO client->irq stays 0, so no interrupt is
requested and no trigger is registered: the device has no events and
no data-ready trigger until it is unbound and bound again;
- without the "reset" GPIO the chip is not reset in
sx9500_init_device().
Which of the two happens depends only on the order in which the drivers
are probed. Return -EPROBE_DEFER so that the probe is repeated once the
controller is there. All other errors are handled as before. The i2c
core sets client->irq again at the start of every probe, so a deferral
on the second line leaves nothing behind.
A system that describes one of the lines but never gets a driver for its
GPIO controller now keeps the sensor in the deferred list instead of
binding it without the line.
Fixes: 45fd5f8e10d3 ("iio: sx9500: add GPIO reset pin")
Fixes: e53111ad5dea ("iio: proximity: sx9500: Assign interrupt from GpioIo()")
