 |
|
I'm trying to install Gentoo on a Dell XPS 9520 using a kernel that is configured to be as minimal as possible. So far, I've managed to get everything working, except for the touchpad.
I've booted into Kubuntu to debug, and dmesg reports
| Code: | [ 1.685836] intel-lpss 0000:00:15.1: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)

Here 04F3:2D24 represents the touchscreen, and 04F3:311C the touchpad, as identified by libinput list-devices on Kubuntu. I've ascertained the drivers for both (to my surprise) the touchpad and touchscreen (i.e. ELAN2D24:00 04F3:2D24, VEN_04F3:00 04F3:311C Mouse, and VEN_04F3:00 04F3:311C Touchpad) to be hid_multitouch:
| Code: | $ ls -l /dev/input/event[...]
[...]
$ cd /sys/dev/char/[major]:[minor]/device/device/driver
[...]
$ ls -al | grep module
hid_multitouch |
On Gentoo, I've enabled I2C_DESIGNWARE_CORE, I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM and even I2C_DESIGNWARE_PCI (along with, of course hid_multitouch), to no avail. The module does indeed load,

Occasionally, upon rebooting, using the touchpad produces a seemingly random stream of characters on the TTY. A further curiosity is that the Kubuntu kernel seems to do fine without i2c_designware_*, relying only upon i2c and hid drivers (yet, it somehow still reports i2c_designware.0 and i2c_designware.1 in the dmesg log). Including all of these modules does not help (and, in fact, makes me wonder whether one or multiple conflicts have occurred).
I'm at my wits' end when it comes to this and have no clue as to how to proceed. I'm very new to Linux; help is much appreciated. |

user169291,
Welcome to Gentoo Forums !
You have already solved the half way (touchpad is connected via i2c and needs hid_multitouch), maybe you are now only missing gpio and pinctrl ... 
In my german article for these touchpads you will find all needed kernel options:

user169291,
Welcome to Gentoo.
Make friends with wgetpaste and use it to share your dmesg and kernel .config file.

Hi guys,
Unfortunately, copying pietinger's post did not help. Still, only the touchscreen is recognized (and the touchpad is not). Here's my kernel .config and my dmesg output (which hasn't changed).
I also wonder why we need both I2c and SMBus. Furthermore, why GPIO? Are the communications bit banged?
Thank you very much in advance; it's great to know that you're this supportive of new users. I hope to be able to repay the favor. |

Please try to enable:
| Code: | | # CONFIG_I2C_DESIGNWARE_SLAVE is not set |
If this doesnt help I am out of ideas at the moment because all other options you will need are enabled (or I think so)  |

user169291,
Being old and cynical. I wouldn't rule out needing
| Code: | | CONFIG_MOUSE_SYNAPTICS_I2C is not set |
Synaptics were close to first in the touchpad field. At one time, what they did became a defacto standard.
As a result, its more a protocol than a hardware driver. Lots of vendors need it.
There is a USB version too. Look in lsusb to make sure its not there, or enable both.
I wanted your entire dmesg so I can see what's missing. There is no mention of mouse or *pad.
I can't see what's missing when its filtered.
When the mouse driver picks up your touchpad, functionality is limited. Usually multitouch is missing.

I've tried enabling | Code: | | CONFIG_MOUSE_SYNAPTICS_I2C |
as well as | Code: | | CONFIG_I2C_DESIGNWARE_SLAVE |
Unfortunately, none of this seems to work.

I understand the mouse driver thing; that's why I've intentionally disabled PS/2 mice. |

When you boot into your newest kernel, what does tell?

user169291,
That looks good. | Quote: | | Tue Aug 9 14:09:05 CEST 2022 |
is the build time of the running kernel, so it looks like the right kernel.
Post your Lets start with the PCIe bus and work our way down.
Buses are like Siphonaptera. To use the one at the bottom, the entire stack has to be correct.
Even the PCIe bus is not the top of the stack. It's connected to something faster still inside the CPU.

user169291,
The forums will crop a post at 64kb. There is no error massage. The end of the past is silently discarded.
wgetpaste is easier to search than a forum post.

That was indeed it. Thank you guys so much for your help!
For future reference: only the Synopsys DesignWare Platform (I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM), HID over I2C transport layer ACPI (i2c-hid-acpi) and hid_multitouch (HID_MULTITOUCH) drivers are necessary; the DesignWare PCI, LPSS (which is a general-purpose I2C driver), SMBus, GPIO, Input Device Support -> Touchscreens, Input Device Support -> mice, and other drivers are unnecessary. |

user169291,
sorry, I dont understand (I am not a native english speaker). What was it ? (pinctrl_tigerlake?)
If I look to your used semicolon, then I would interpret it as:
"only the Synopsys DesignWare Platform (I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM), HID over I2C transport layer ACPI (i2c-hid-acpi) and hid_multitouch (HID_MULTITOUCH) drivers are necessary;"
But ... this you had in your kernel config already before !
...and:
"the DesignWare PCI, LPSS (which is a general-purpose I2C driver), SMBus, GPIO, Input Device Support -> Touchscreens, Input Device Support -> mice, and other drivers are unnecessary."
... ? Really ? |

user169291,
intel-lpss was in use.
| Code: | 00:15.0 Serial bus controller [0c80]: Intel Corporation Alder Lake PCH Serial IO I2C Controller #0 [8086:51e8] (rev 01)
Subsystem: Dell Alder Lake PCH Serial IO I2C Controller [1028:0b19]
Kernel driver in use: intel-lpss |
What driver is in use there now?
You may yet need intel-lpss but you haven't found anything broken yet.

My apologies if my previous post caused any confusion.
What I meant is that I've recompiled my kernel without | Code: | X86_INTEL_LPSS
I2C_SLAVE
I2C_DESIGNWARE_SLAVE
I2C_DESIGNWARE_PCI
INPUT_MOUSE
INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN
|
or anything under "GPIO Support", except for GPIO_CDEV, which was forced. Everything I currently need and/or have tested, i.e. backlight, thermal and battery reporting, function keys, bluetooth mouse + earbuds, wifi, trackpad, touchpad, and thunderbolt, has continued to work.
So, indeed, PINCTRL_TIGERLAKE seems to have been the "missing link" necessary to get a minimal setup with MFD_INTEL_LPSS_PCI (which loads the intel_lpss kernel module regardless), I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM, I2C_HID_ACPI, and HID_MULTITOUCH working. I will experiment further with ACPI/PCI mode once I have more time. And to indeed confirm your suspicion, NeddySeagoon: | Code: | $ cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.1/uevent
DRIVER=intel-lpss
PCI_CLASS=C8000
PCI_ID=8086:51E9
PCI_SUBSYS_ID=1028:0B19
PCI_SLOT_NAME=0000:00:15.1
MODALIAS=pci:v00008086d000051E9sv00001028sd00000B19bc0Csc80i00

Not that I have any noteworthy experience with this kind of matter, but none of this make any sense to me from an EE perspective. While I initially thought that this might have been a bug in the Alder Lake pin control driver, I've reverted the kernel to its "broken" state, and saw that the Designware drivers have indeed been loaded from the /sys/devices/ hierarchy. I understand that pin control includes more than multiplexing, e.g. setting load capacitances or drive strength, but how can a pin control driver malfunction in this manner?
On another note: While my reaching out to this forum was initially motivated by necessity, I certainly do plan to stay active on and will continue forwarding all replies to my inbox. Thank you very much for your help. I really hope you can derive a great sense of satisfaction from the community you've helped create. |
