Indeed, r8a7740_pfc does not implement the .get_direction() callback, so gpiod_get_direction() always returns -EINVAL, which is never equal to GPIOF_DIR_IN. Restoring the old behavior by changing the above test to if (pb->enable_gpio && (!node || !node->phandle || gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) == GPIOF_DIR_IN)) fixes the display for me, but leads to a more complex expression. However, changing the test to if (pb->enable_gpio && gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) != GPIOF_DIR_OUT) also fixes the display, as an error is always different from GPIOF_DIR_OUT. Anyone with comments or suggestions to fix this for real? Thanks!

Oh, I didn't think about this at all, anymore. Though I believe to remember that this was the reason that I checked for (gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) == GPIOF_DIR_OUT) before, so ... > Restoring the old behavior by changing the above test to > > if (pb->enable_gpio && > (!node || !node->phandle || > gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) == GPIOF_DIR_IN)) > > fixes the display for me, but leads to a more complex expression. > > However, changing the test to > > if (pb->enable_gpio && > gpiod_get_direction(pb->enable_gpio) != GPIOF_DIR_OUT) > > also fixes the display, as an error is always different from GPIOF_DIR_OUT. > > Anyone with comments or suggestions to fix this for real? ... I'm in favor of the latter, as this is closer to the initial intention. I'd also mention this in the comment: /* * If the GPIO is not known to be already configured as output, that is, * if gpiod_get_direction returns either GPIOF_DIR_IN or -EINVAL, change * the direction to output and set the GPIO as active. * Do not force the GPIO to active when it was already output as it * could cause backlight flickering or we would enable the backlight too * early.
