The DHT22 (AM2302) datasheet specifies that the LOW start pulse should not
exceed 20ms. However, observations with an oscilloscope of an RPi Model 2B
(rev 1.1) communicating with a DHT22 sensor showed that the driver was
consistently sending start pulses longer than 20ms:
Kernel 4.7.10-v7+ (n=132):
Minimum pulse length: 20.20ms
Maximum: 29.84ms
Mean: 24.96ms
StDev: 2.82ms
Sensor response rate: 100%
Read success rate: 76%
On kernel 4.8, the start pulse was so long that the sensor would not even
respond 97% of the time:
Kernel 4.8.16-v7+ (n=100):
Minimum pulse length: 30.4ms
Maximum: 74.4ms
Mean: 39.3ms
StDev: 10.2ms
Sensor response rate: 3%
Read success rate: 3%
The driver would return ETIMEDOUT and write log messages like this:
[ 51.430987] dht11 dht11@0: Only 1 signal edges detected
[ 66.311019] dht11 dht11@0: Only 0 signal edges detected
Replacing msleep(18) with usleep_range(18000, 20000) made the pulse length
sane again and restored responsiveness:
Kernel 4.8.16-v7+ with usleep_range (n=123):
Minimum pulse length: 18.16ms
Maximum: 20.20ms
Mean: 19.85ms
StDev: 0.51ms
Sensor response rate: 100%
Read success rate: 84%
