IOReg is not attached to either. Make sure you give Terminal accessibility access in SysPrefs>Security & Privacy>Privacy>Accessibility, before running the script.

When you're not trying to use GPIO, is it laggy as well? Behaves like a mouse?

It act as trackpad with all MacBook 1,2,3 fingers gesture well, but occasionally you have to wait 1-2sec to work after boot up.

There are some issues when using a Touch Bar-equipped SMBIOS. Install NoTouchID.kext.
Really not sure it will solve what you describe, as I'm not sure I understood if it's actually related. Anyway attach new archives if the issue persists, after allowing Terminal to have accessibility access.

NoTouchID.kext dose not make difference. here the debug_15543.zip is the original run in polling mode, debug_8043.zip with GPIO pin

I don't know why, but when in polling mode the picture of extension: VoodooGPIO had been loaded?

I see ACPIBatteryManager installed. Try removing it temporarily, see if issues are resolved. If they are, replace FakeSMC and ACPIBatteryManager with VirtualSMC + SMCBatteryManager.

Please explain the issue more clearly. Did not understand if it's happening with both polling and GPIO or just with one of them.

The kext is loaded under your GPIO controller, nothing wrong with it. VoodooI2C is separate from it, and does not register to GPIO interrupts.

Yes! Previously VoodooI2C.kext v2.16 and VoodooI2CHID.kext could not loaded in my build clover kexts/other with FakeSMC.kext so I injected it in L/E with patches DSDT.aml and they run in polling mode with full function. But with the help of ben9923 put VirtualSMC + SMCBatteryManager and VoodooI2C.kext v2.2 + VoodooI2CHID.kext in clover Kexts/other with my previous patches DSDT.aml ( pin list stll 0x0000 not 0x0023) they run in GPIO mode. Thank you ben9923.

Yeah, no need to set an explicit GPIO pin when SBFG already exists in your DSDT.
So everything is working properly now?

Yes, and thank you for your help!!

Hey, @richardchiu. Great work! What type of touchpad is in your laptop? ELAN?
