This seems to have been broken since 2010, so obviously noone actually
cares about the driver:

make[4]: *** [drivers/input/touchscreen/eeti_ts.o] Error 1
drivers/input/touchscreen/eeti_ts.c: In function 'eeti_ts_irq_active':
drivers/input/touchscreen/eeti_ts.c:65:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'irq_to_gpio' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

irq_to_gpio isn't available on most platforms today, so the driver
will need some rework by someone who has hardware access and can test
(to make sure that, for example, switching to level interrupts and just
keep taking them while there's more to process works).

I guess it could just be scheduled for removal, but let's start with
marking it CONFIG_BROKEN.

Well, it probably works quite well on arches that do have irq_to_gpio(),
let's ask Daniel and Sven if they still have this hardware and if they
can try the patch below that implements what you suggested.

This hardware is still in use and we also still follow kernel
development and try to update our customer devices to recent kernel
versions regularly. Currently we are at 3.1.10 and the touchscreen
works well with that. I'll try to update to a more recent kernel
next week and will try your patch.

Did you have a chance to test the patch?

*ping*

It would be nice to get driver in mainline compile [and work] again...

We gave that patch a quick try today and it doesn't seem to work. We
don't get any events from the touch screen anymore. We need to debug
this further, hopefully by the end of this week.

If there's anything obvious in the setup of the threaded IRQ handler,
please let us know. Otherwise, I'll get back once I have a fixed version
of the patch.


Thanks,
Daniel

Thanks.
