On Ideapad Z570 the driver tries to disable and re-enable data coming from the touchpad by poking directly into 8042 keyboard controller. This may coincide with the controller resuming and leads to spews in dmesg and potentially other instabilities. Instead of using i8042_command() to control the touchpad state create an input handler that serves as a filter and drop events coming from the touchpad when it is supposed to be off. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <[email protected]> --- v2: - fix inverted condition in ideapad_tpswitch_filter() - mark the handler as passive_observer so that touchpad is not activated until there are real users - use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to access shared state flag - drop stray semicolon in to_tpswitch_handle() - update comments drivers/platform/x86/lenovo/ideapad-laptop.c | 184 ++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 175 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/platform/x86/lenovo/ideapad-laptop.c b/drivers/platform/x86/lenovo/ideapad-laptop.c index 4fbc904f1fc3..8b4c41073b82 100644 --- a/drivers/platform/x86/lenovo/ideapad-laptop.c +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/lenovo/ideapad-laptop.c @@ -18,7 +18,6 @@ #include <linux/delay.h> #include <linux/device.h> #include <linux/dmi.h> -#include <linux/i8042.h> #include <linux/init.h> #include <linux/input.h> #include <linux/input/sparse-keymap.h> @@ -210,6 +209,13 @@ struct ideapad_private { struct led_classdev led; unsigned int last_brightness; } fn_lock; + struct { + bool initialized; + bool active; /* true means touchpad is enabled */ + struct input_handler handler; + struct input_dev *tp_dev; + spinlock_t lock; + } tp_switch; }; static bool no_bt_rfkill; @@ -234,7 +240,7 @@ MODULE_PARM_DESC(set_fn_lock_led, static bool ctrl_ps2_aux_port; module_param(ctrl_ps2_aux_port, bool, 0444); MODULE_PARM_DESC(ctrl_ps2_aux_port, - "Enable driver based PS/2 aux port en-/dis-abling on touchpad on/off toggle.
