[PATCH v6 0/2] input: introduce support for Qualcomm SPMI haptics

From: Caleb Connolly
Date: Mon Oct 10 2022 - 12:30:44 EST


This series introduces a driver for the SPMI haptics hardware block
found in Qualcomm PMICs. SPMI haptics support LRA (Linear Resonant
Actuator) style haptics, as well as ERM (Eccentric Rotating Mass).
It also supports several modes of driving the haptics, e.g. by loading
the pattern to play into an internal buffer, or using PWM.

More information about the hardware can be found here:
https://gitlab.com/sdm845-mainline/linux/-/wikis/PMI8998-QPNP-Haptics

This driver has been written based on downstream sources as no public
documentation is available. It includes initial support for LRA haptics
in buffer mode, this combination seems to be the most common and will
enable haptics on the OnePlus 6 and 6T, PocoPhone F1, OnePlus 5 and
several other Qualcomm devices with mainline kernel support.

The driver is implemented using the ff-memless (forcefeedback) input
framework and makes an attempt to control the strength of vibration relative
to the magnitude set from userspace.

Changes since v5:
- Fix dt schema errors
- Fix typo (thanks Vincent)

Changes since v4:
- Significant rewrite and cleanup
- switch to dev_err_probe()
- Run through clang-format

Changes since v3:
- Adjust example DTS to avoid creating new warnings in dt_binding_check
- Address warnings from kernel test robot.

Changes since v2:
- Addressed Rob's comments on dt-bindings (I'm not sure what to do
about the pmic compatible?)
- Fixed some typos

Changes since v1:
- Replace old QPNP naming with SPMI
- Address Bjorn's comments on the driver, various style and code cleanups
- Address Bjorn's comments on the DT bindings and DTS
- Pickup patches from Joel and Jami to enable haptics on the OnePlus 5
and Poco F1.
