From 434959618c47efe9e5f2e20f4a850caac4f6b823 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Hitz christian.hitz@bbv.ch Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2025 16:51:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] leds: leds-lp50xx: Enable chip before any communication MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
If a GPIO is used to control the chip's enable pin, it needs to be pulled high before any i2c communication is attempted.
Currently, the enable GPIO handling is not correct.
Assume the enable GPIO is low when the probe function is entered. In this case the device is in SHUTDOWN mode and does not react to i2c commands.
During probe the following sequence happens: 1. The call to lp50xx_reset() on line 548 has no effect as i2c is not possible yet. 2. Then - on line 552 - lp50xx_enable_disable() is called. As "priv->enable_gpio“ has not yet been initialized, setting the GPIO has no effect. Also the i2c enable command is not executed as the device is still in SHUTDOWN. 3. On line 556 the call to lp50xx_probe_dt() finally parses the rest of the DT and the configured priv->enable_gpio is set up.
As a result the device is still in SHUTDOWN mode and not ready for operation.
Split lp50xx_enable_disable() into distinct enable and disable functions to enforce correct ordering between enable_gpio manipulations and i2c commands. Read enable_gpio configuration from DT before attempting to manipulate enable_gpio. Add delays to observe correct wait timing after manipulating enable_gpio and before any i2c communication.
