| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add locking to brightness subdriverHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The backlight class does all the locking needed for sysfs access, but offers no API to interface to that locking without an layer violation. Since we need to mutex-lock procfs access, implement in-driver locking for brightness. It will go away the day thinkpad-acpi procfs goes away, or the backlight class gives us a way to use its locks without a layer violation.

| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: make sure DSDT TMPx readings don't return +128Henrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We get +128 instead of -128 from the DSDT TMPx methods, due to errors when converting a EC byte return that is a s8 to an ACPI handler return that is an int. Fix it once and for all, by clamping acceptable temperature readings from DSDT TMPx so that anything outside the [-127,+127] range is converted to TP_EC_THERMAL_TMP_NA (-128).

| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: react to Lenovo ThinkPad differences in hot keyHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Lenovo ThinkPads have a slightly different key map layout from IBM ThinkPads (fn+f2 and fn+f3 are swapped). Knowing which one we are dealing with, we can properly set a few more hot keys up by default. Also, export the correct vendor in the input device, as that information might be useful to userspace.

| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: allow use of CMOS NVRAM for brightness controlHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that Lenovo decided to break the EC brightness control interface in a weird way in their latest BIOSes. Fortunately, the old CMOS NVRAM interface works just fine in such BIOSes. Add a module parameter that allows the user to select which strategy to use for brightness control: EC, NVRAM, or both. By default, do both (which is the way thinkpad-acpi used to work until now) on IBM ThinkPads, and use NVRAM only on Lenovo ThinkPads.

| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: add input device support to hotkey subdriverHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-07-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add input device support to the hotkey subdriver. Hot keys that have a valid keycode mapping are reported through the input layer if the input device is open. Otherwise, they will be reported as ACPI events, as they were before. Scan codes are reported (using EV_MSC MSC_SCAN events) along with EV_KEY KEY_UNKNOWN events. For backwards compatibility purposes, hot keys that used to be reported through ACPI events are not mapped to anything meaningful by default. Userspace is supposed to remap them if it wants to use the input device for hot key reporting. This patch is based on a patch by Richard Hughes <hughsient@gmail.com>.

Ouch. This takes care of most keys one used to have to do CMOS NVRAM polling on, and should drop the need for tpb, thinkpad-keys, and other such 5Hz NVRAM polling power vampires on most modern ThinkPads ;-) And, just to add insult to injury, this was sort of working since forever through the procfs interface, but nobody noticed or tried an echo 0xffffffff > /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkey and told me it would generate weird events. ARGH! Thanks to Richard Hughes for kicking off the work that ended up with this discovery, and to Matthew Garret for calling my attention to the fact that newer ThinkPads were indeed generating ACPI GPEs when such hot keys were pressed.

* DMI-based module autoloadingLennart Poettering2007-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch below adds DMI/SMBIOS based module autoloading to the Linux kernel. The idea is to load laptop drivers automatically (and other drivers which cannot be autoloaded otherwise), based on the DMI system identification information of the BIOS. Right now most distros manually try to load all available laptop drivers on bootup in the hope that at least one of them loads successfully. This patch does away with all that, and uses udev to automatically load matching drivers on the right machines. Basically the patch just exports the DMI information that has been parsed by the kernel anyway to userspace via a sysfs device /sys/class/dmi/id and makes sure that proper modalias attributes are available. Besides adding the "modalias" attribute it also adds attributes for a few other DMI fields which might be useful for writing udev rules. This patch is not an attempt to export the entire DMI/SMBIOS data to userspace. We already have "dmidecode" which parses the complete DMI info from userspace. The purpose of this patch is machine model identification and good udev integration. To take advantage of DMI based module autoloading, a driver should export one or more MODULE_ALIAS fields similar to these: MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:pnMS-1013:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1058:pvr0581:rvnMSI:rnMS-1058:*:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1412:*:rvnMSI:rnMS-1412:*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnNOTEBOOK:pnSAM2000:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*"); These lines are specific to my msi-laptop.c driver. They are basically just a concatenation of a few carefully selected DMI fields with all potentially bad characters stripped. Besides laptop drivers, modules like "hdaps", the i2c modules and the hwmon modules are good candidates for "dmi:" MODULE_ALIAS lines. Besides merely exporting the DMI data via sysfs the patch adds support for a few more DMI fields. Especially the CHASSIS fields are very useful to identify different laptop modules. The patch also adds working MODULE_ALIAS lines to my msi-laptop.c driver. I'd like to thank Kay Sievers for helping me to clean up this patch for posting it on lkml. Patch is against Linus' current GIT HEAD. Should probably apply to older kernels as well without modification.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Yeah, we could have just disabled it, but there's work on a new one that isn't as fundamentally broken, so there really doesn't seem to be any point in keeping it around. The recent timer cleanup broke the only valid use, and when I say "valid", I obviously mean "totally broken". So it's not like it works, or really even can work in the current format that uses the unsafe "panic" LED blinking routines.. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| * ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: do not use named sysfs groupsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-05-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial version of the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface (not yet released in any stable mainline kernel) made liberal use of named sysfs groups, in order to get the attributes more organized. This proved to be a really bad design decision. Maybe if attribute groups were as flexible as a real directory, and if binary attributes were not second-class citizens, the idea of subdirs and named groups would not have been so bad. This patch makes all the thinkpad-acpi sysfs groups anonymous (thus removing the subdirs), adds the former group names as a prefix (so that hotkey/enable becomes hotkey_enable for example), and updates the documentation. These changes will make the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI a lot easier to maintain. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
