Hi Michael, I had a look at the adp5588-keys driver and its datasheet. There are some "slips of the pen" in it (adp5588 Rev.b):Hi Christoph, Good catch - however typos in datasheets shouldn't be discussed here, unless it influences the vital state of this driver.quoted
- Page 8, Table 12, "E4 pressed" refers to binary 1000 instead of 100Not only this obvious one - all others are wrong as well...quoted
- Page 17, Table 22, Register Descriptions are mostly wrongWhat's wrong with Table 22?
The column "Register Description" says "Key Event Register B [..]" for register names KEY_EVENTD to KEY_EVENTJ. But for row KEY_EVENTA to KEY_EVENTC it seems to be correct.

Another thing I'm curious about is in adp5588_report_events(): int key = adp5588_read(kpad->client, Key_EVENTA + i); int key_val = key & KEY_EV_MASK; [...] input_report_key(kpad->input, kpad->keycode[key_val - 1], key & KEY_EV_PRESSED); Why is there a -1 for key_val?Key_val == 0, is not a valid event code! The part emits 1..80 for keys and 97..114 for GPI events.
ah, so mark ² below Table 22 is correct :)
So bottom line - the driver is correct but Table 12 is completely wrong.
