dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown not working

[amolotkov]

Following configuration is not working on the build from March 2nd.
dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown,gpio_pin=20,active_low=1,gpio_pull=down

Same config works on vanilla bookworm

[mgrouch]

is gpio-keys module loaded.

You might be missing some additional configuration

Might be this thread could help you troubleshoot

Everything seems to be as expected, Also I've noticed that OS ignores the RPI on board power off button as well

adedd dtoverlay=gpio-keys to config

/sbin/lsmod

There are events when I drive the Pin to Low

What’s the output of

systemd-analyze cat-config systemd/logind.conf

Things to check:

is systemd-logind service enabled?

sudo systemctl status systemd-logind

what happens when you initiate shutdown via gpio?

does logind receive that event?

Commands to run

dmesg

journalctl

do you have power off button on your keyboard?
Does it work?

check power management settings

Nothing

does logind receive that event?

do you have power off button on your keyboard?

I don't have power button on keyboard, but power button on Raspberry Pi5 board doesn't work as well

check power management settings

What can I check there. It's only 2 options Balanced/Power saver - Changing them have no effect

[mgrouch]

How long do you hold power button on pi5 board?
It’s working for me

[amolotkov]

How long do you hold power button on pi5 board? It’s working for me

Pressing and releasing, Long press doesn't make any difference as well. I have a fresh install , really strange

[mgrouch]

Anything powered connected via USB and leaking power into pi5?

[amolotkov]

Nope, nothing external connected to PI except 5 v power. This exact rig and exact config works as expected with vanilla raspberry OS, and Open Plotter

[mgrouch]

Another thing to try:

sudo systemctl disable upower
sudo systemctl stop upower

systemd-inhibit --list

[mgrouch]

There is also this discussion

systemd/systemd#28902

so another thing to try:

sudo systemctl disable ctrl-alt-del.target
sudo systemctl enable poweroff.target

[mgrouch]

Some more details on how things work:

https://medium.com/@buzondefede/shutdown-from-power-button-explained-in-ubuntu-22-04-3fbe671b5765

looks like some app installed inhibitor on logind (systemd) power off events
