Description
Most people think that 5 seconds / 8 seconds is too long and would prefer 3
seconds / 5 seconds.

I agree, 3 seconds for regular power off seems much nicer. Of course we would
need some immediate feedback, that the phone is shutting down so the user
doesn't accidently hard power-off the device.

Good, then lets go for the 3 seconds in U-Boot as well as the 3 seconds in
kernel for signalizing an event. I realize that the "hard-timeout" can't be
shortened, but since this only kicks in in emergency, it's probably ok.

the kernel part (shutdown after 3 rather than 5 secods) is implemented in
Committed revision 1682.
u-boot actually already has three seconds. The problem is probably that you
don't notice it until two seconds later, when the splash has been loaded from
NAND and fully decompressed.

Thanks for the kernel part.
I don't think we have 3 seconds in U-boot, because the vibration pulse also only
comes after 5 seconds -- or is it written in a way that the pulse comes after
loading and showing the splash?
comment:6 Changed 6 years ago by laforge@…
yes, exactly. The way the splash is implemented is by first loading it from
nand, uncompressing, displaying it, enabling the backlight and then pulseing.
It should be the other way around.
In fact, the splash screen is even loaded from NAND and uncompressed if we push
the power button for less than three/five seconds, which is a waste of energy in
case the power button gets pressed accidentially (i.e. in a bag) a number of times.

How does current GTA02 behaviour on this match to desired behaviour?

This seems to have come down to specifically GTA02 U-Boot behaviour around the power button. We will be moving off U-Boot to Qi which has no mode of sticking around in bootloader. For GTA02 case, remaining NOR U-Boot can't easily be changed anyway.
Unless I miss something I will close this as WONTFIX after delay for comment.

We can lower the '5 seconds'. but the '8 seconds' is a hardware definde
dimeout. no way to change that without changing pcf50606 silicon ;)
