Disabling PowerOff and Reset button

[PM]

Hello everybody,

I am trying to disable my reset & poweroff button from my LCD7 cape.
I saw on the schematic diagram that these buttons are directly connected to SYS_RESET & PWR_BUT.

I would like to know if it is possible to disable these buttons by editing any 'dts' or 'dtso' file ?

Thank you very much.

Reset pin goes to the reset line and the power button goes to the PMIC. PMIC pins and reset lines are not controlled via the DTS file

The interrupt into software for the power button is dts controlled:

You can eliminate the software shutdown, but the hardware will still do a power down if the button is held for more than about 10-12 seconds.

Thanks for the info.

I tried to find the corresponding dtb to modify but no success :(

I can't find any am335x-bone-common.dtb. Do you know where should I look ?

Regards,

PM

Okay I found the dtsi file in /opt/source/dtb-4.9-ti/src/arm/ :)

Do I have to recompile it after editing the file ?

If Yes, what command should i type ?

Thanks :)

[PM]

Hello :)

I tried to compile the dtb-4.9 but I get these errors, do you have any idea ?

debian@arm:/opt/source/dtb-4.9-ti$ sudo make
  DTC     src/arm/am335x-boneblack-bbb-exp-r.dtb
FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "unit_address_vs_reg"
Makefile:136: recipe for target 'src/arm/am335x-boneblack-bbb-exp-r.dtb' failed
make[1]: *** [src/arm/am335x-boneblack-bbb-exp-r.dtb] Error 1
Makefile:84: recipe for target 'all_arm' failed

Thank you very much !

dtb-4.9-ti is using mainline dtc.. While i fixed this for Stretch,
Jessie still has the old one:

Fixed: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/dtb-rebuilder/commit/d9f78027cf4a635f81fc6d4aebafea6bc849f4f5

just run:

git pull
./dtc-overlay.sh

dtc --version
Version: DTC 1.4.4

Thanks Robert ! It now compiles.

I run make & make install. It does something like that :

‘src/arm/am335x-abbbi.dtb’ -> ‘/boot/dtbs/4.4.43-ti-r84/

am335x-abbbi.dtb’
‘src/arm/am335x-baltos-ir2110.dtb’ -> ‘/boot/dtbs/4.4.43-ti-r84/am335x-baltos-ir2110.dtb’
‘src/arm/am335x-baltos-ir3220.dtb’ -> ‘/boot/dtbs/4.4.43-ti-r84/am335x-baltos-ir3220.dtb’
And so on....

But my modification inside am335x-bone-common.dtsi does not work.

pwrbutton {
interrupts = <TPS65217_IRQ_PB>;
              status = "disabled";
      };

The code does not disable the instant poweroff on my LCD7 power button :(

Any idea ?

Thanks !

Remove the whole device-tree node:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/arch/arm/boot/dts/am335x-bone-common.dtsi?id=eb3e4bbebac41946cf3001ebe11bd4c135b61f29

I can see this being quite useful as a way to coopt the power button for other actions too:

example pseudocode:

If powerbutton held for > 1 second,  do nothing                              # reduces accidental presses 

if powerbutton held for >=1 s to < 2 s , call mysoftware restart

if powerbutton held for >=  2s to 5s,  call test routine           

if powerbutton held for > 5 s,# original action

[bilm...@gmail.com]

I see this being quite useful if we can co-opt the power button for other uses too.

e.g.

If pwr held for <1 second,  do nothing 

for 1 - 3 seconds, restart my software

for 3- 5 seconds,  run my test routine

for > 5 seconds perform original action - os shutdown

Thanks Robert.

I removed the whole node and still no success :(
