Hello,
I am working with a imx6 dual light digi board. I want to add Ad7879 touch support. I 've been followed the next steps:
-First I changed the kernel config file adding support fo touchscreen and ad7879. In kernel config file I 've made the following changes:
CONFIG_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN=y
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879=y
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879_I2C=y
At the first I configured ad7879 as module doing:
CONFIG_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN=y
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879=m
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879_I2C=m
After that I made the device initialization in the device tree.
In imx6qdl-ccimx6sbc.dtsi file I put the next:
&i2c3 {
…
ad7879@2c {
compatible = "adi,ad7879-1";
reg = <0x2c>;
interrupt-parent = <&gpio6>;
interrupts = <15 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING>;
touchscreen-max-pressure = <4096>;
adi,resistance-plate-x = <120>;
adi,first-conversion-delay = /bits/ 8 <3>;
adi,acquisition-time = /bits/ 8 <1>;
adi,median-filter-size = /bits/ 8 <2>;
adi,averaging = /bits/ 8 <1>;
adi,conversion-interval = /bits/ 8 <255>;
...
};
The ad7879 interrupt controller is conected to the imx6 in EXP_I2C_IRQ_N pin that is the GPIO_6_15, for that reason I put interrupt-parent = <&gpio6> and interrupts = <15 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING>;.
In imx6qdl-ccimx6sbc.dts file I put:
&i2c3 {
…
ad7879@2c {
status ="okay";
};
...
};
Then I followed with compile the linux image and device tree.
In the imx6 with the linux image that I configures the ad7879 as module I loaded the ad7879 modules doing this:
root:~> modprobe ad7879
root:~> modprobe ad7879-i2c
but there is not log messages abaout the ad7879 and there is no ad7879 node asociated.
If I check the device node to chek the device node:
root@ccimx6sbc: ls -la /dev/input/
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 180 Jan 1 2000 .
drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 3480 May 16 14:49 …

root@ccimx6sbc:# cat /sys/class/input/input2/name

You can see that there is no node asociated.
root@ccimx6sbc:# cat /proc/interrupts

You can se that there is not interrupts asociated to ad7879.
There is no difference when I build the linux kernel with this configuration:
CONFIG_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN=y
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879=y
CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_AD7879_I2C=y
I did run dmesg and there is no log entries associated with ad7879.
In the imx6 linux I did the following commands:
>root@ccimx6sbc:i2cdetect 2
with this response:
WARNING! This program can confuse your I2C bus, cause data loss and worse!
I will probe file /dev/i2c-2.
I will probe address range 0x03-0x77.

If you can see the identifier of the device is detected (0x2c).
Then I made:
>root@ccimx6sbc: i2cdump -r 0-0x40 2 0x2c
With this response:
No size specified (using byte-data access)
WARNING! This program can confuse your I2C bus, cause data loss and worse!

You can se in 0x02 and 0x0e are two of the default values for the registers of ad7879 and they are correct. So I concluded that the controller is well connected.
