回覆: [x86-power-control]: press the power button for a long time that can't force turn off system power

[Chris Chen (TPI)]

Hi Andrew,

Understood. Thanks for your explanation.


Hi Jason,

I will take it a shot. Thanks for your sharing.


Regards,
Chris Chen

This is some of the configuration that I have on my system where the
pass-through is working correctly in x86-power-control:

I have one kernel patch that selects the "pass-through" pin
configuration on startup:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/Intel-BMC/linux/commit/8fe1ac31c13a0e8443c665394112ba407c90ae70__;!!HSntlCg!Ep_IWFI6dHqTAFsDwLYoJ0JYl3PjsE2hcEJQFIkNt1nDgHL9PvJEAWMmDWtE4az1$ .

In x86-power-control, I have the POWER_BUTTON GPIO mapped to GPIOP2, and
I'm able to claim and monitor that GPIO without affecting the
pass-through status.

I have POWER_OUT mapped to GPIOP3 which cannot be held in
x86-power-control as it disables the pass-through when claimed.  So, it
is always released after the power-control action is completed.

Thanks,
-Jason
