From: David Rivshin <redacted> omap_gpio_debounce() does not validate that the requested debounce is within a range it can handle. Instead it lets the register value wrap silently, and always returns success. This can lead to all sorts of unexpected behavior, such as gpio_keys asking for a too-long debounce, but getting a very short debounce in practice. Fix this by returning -EINVAL if the requested value does not fit into the register field. If there is no debounce clock available at all, return -ENOTSUPP.In general this patch looks good, but there is one thing I'm worry about..quoted

In that case gpio-keys will use a software timer instead. if (button->debounce_interval) { error = gpiod_set_debounce(bdata->gpiod, button->debounce_interval * 1000); /* use timer if gpiolib doesn't provide debounce */ if (error < 0) bdata->software_debounce = button->debounce_interval; } Also, at least some other GPIO drivers (e.g. gpio-max7760) return -EINVAL in such a case. And gpiolib will return -ENOTSUPP if there is no debounce callback at all. So I expect all drivers which use gpiod_set_debounce() to handle error returns gracefully. So I certainly understand the concern about backwards compatibility, but I think clipping to max is the greater of the evils in this case. Even a warning may be too much, because it's not necessarily anything wrong. Perhaps an info or debug message would be helpful, though? If you prefer, I can try to go through all callers of gpiod_set_debounce() and see how they'd handle an error return. The handful I've looked through so far all behave like gpio-keys. The only ones I'd be particularly concerned about are platform-specific drivers which were perhaps never used with other gpio drivers. Do you know of that I should pay special attention to?
Yeh agree. But the problem here will be not only with drivers itself - it can be wrong data in DT :( As result, even gpio-keys driver will just silently switch to software_debounce without any notification. But agree - max might not be a good choose, so can you add dev_err() below, pls.
