ANYWR - A New Year WMI release

Len,

Can you please review at least the first two patches in this series, as I
would really like to try and get them into 2.6.25.

-Carlos

===

Patch #1: (WMI - driver and in kernel interface) - No change

Len: For you to review, and to go upstream.

====

Patch #2: (acer-wmi)

Added more device autodetection. Also, fixed setting bluetooth and wireless
on older AMW0 V2 laptops, and improved the error handling code on driver
registration.

(I am currently working on rfkill support, but have been running into some
strange problems with rfkill-input, so I'll release that as a future patch
on top of this when it's done. Until then, though, this patch still works
as-is).

Len: For you to review, and to go upstream.

====

Patch #3: (tc1100-wmi) - No Change

RFC only, needs actual testing on the hardware, and probably very broken.
Waiting on Matthew Garrett to get some free time to test this.

====

Patch #4: (WMI sysfs interface) - No Change

RFC only (see patch #5 for reason). Adds interface under
/sys/devices/virtual/wmi

Matthew: Do you want me to fold patch #5 into this?

====

Patch #5: (WMI sysfs workaround) - No change

Temporary hack, needed to get patch #4 working, due to a limitation on bus_id
length (Kay Sievers is apparently working on this, ref Greg KH[1]).

Len,

Can you please review, and hopefully apply, at least the first two patches in
this series, as I would like to get them into acpi-test (then -mm and eventually
2.6.26-rc1).

It's a little late now to put these into 2.6.25-rc1, and I don't want to
miss another merge window - so the sooner these are looked at by you, the sooner
I can address any concerns and we can have these ready for the 2.6.26-rc1
window.

-Carlos

===

Patch #1: (WMI - driver and in kernel interface) - Minor clean up

Replace leftover occurences of 'x == NULL' with '!x'

Len: For you to review and to be applied to acpi-test.

====

Patch #2: (acer-wmi) - New DMI entry, mail LED detection fix, mismatch fix

* Don't fail if we can't detect a mail LED on AMW0 systems
* Add an EC quirk for the Acer Aspire 9110
* Fix section mismatch warnings

Len: For you to review and to be applied to acpi-test.

====

Patch #3: (tc1100-wmi) - No Change

RFC only, needs actual testing on the hardware, and probably very broken.
Waiting on Matthew Garrett to get some free time to test this.

====

Patch #4: (WMI sysfs interface) - No Change

RFC only (see patch #5 for reason and discussion). Adds interface under
/sys/devices/virtual/wmi

Also adds a function to return the (virtual) device associated with a GUID for
use by other parts of the kernel that want to set a parent device.

Len: To review (but not to apply yet, unless you want to apply patch #5 as well)

====

Patch #5: (WMI sysfs workaround) - No Change

Temporary hack, needed to get patch #4 working, due to a limitation on bus_id
length (Kay Sievers is apparently working on this, ref Greg KH[1]).

Len:

Apparently, the necessary fixes _might_ go into 2.6.25 as well, or worst case
scenario is 2.6.26[2]. So we can either:

1) Hold off on patch #4 until the necessary fixes go in (this might be 2.6.25
if we're lucky, or we end up putting off WMI sysfs support until 2.6.26)

or

2) Apply patch #4, and #5 on top as a temporary hack, and then revert #5 as
soon as the necessary changes go in. (For bisection purposes, #4 and #5 should
be merged if we go ahead with this).

I don't know what would be the best solution here.

ACSWR - A Christmas Sale WMI release

Patch #1: (WMI - driver and in kernel interface)

Added per GUID event handling callbacks, as per Matthew's suggestion.

Len:
For review, and to go upstream.

(Bar the EC stuff, this code has also been inflic^^^^tested by acer_acpi users
with my 0.10 releases, so I'm confident on Acer hardware at least that it won't
break horribly).

Patch #2: (acer-wmi)

Add device detection for bluetooth and maximum brightness (removes more hard
coded EC quirks). Also simplified some of the code.

Len:
For review, and to go upstream.

Patch #3: (tc1100-wmi) - No Change

RFC only, needs actual testing on the hardware, and probably very broken.
Waiting on Matthew Garrett to get some free time to test this.

Patch #4: (WMI sysfs interface) - No Change

RFC only (see patch #5 for reason). Adds interface under
/sys/devices/virtual/wmi

Matthew - Do you want me to fold patch #5 into this?

Patch #5: (WMI sysfs workaround) - No change

Temporary hack, needed to get patch #4 working, due to a limitation on bus_id
length (Kay Sievers is apparently working on this, ref Greg KH[1]).

Another WMI release.

Patch #1: (WMI - initial driver and in kernel interface)

Big change here is putting in a basic EC region handler - which is
mostly a shameless rip off of the EC driver's acpi_ec_space_handler,
with the exception that WMI doesn't need to care about the EC device,
and just calls ec_{read,write} instead.

Therefore, CC'ing Alexey for the EC bit.

For review, and hopefully to go up to 2.6.25

Patch #2: (acer-wmi) - No Change

For review, and (rather tentatively here) 2.6.25 material?

Patch #3: (tc1100-wmi)

RFC only, needs actual testing on the hardware, and probably very broken. 
Waiting on Matthew Garrett to get some free time to test this.

Bluetooth renamed to jogdial, as per comments from Joshua Wise.

Patch #4: (WMI sysfs interface) - No Change

RFC only (see patch #5 for reason). Adds interface 
under /sys/devices/virtual/wmi

Changes: Added 'string' file to each GUID, which reports whether the GUID has 
the 'string' flag set (userspace needs to know for converting from its' 
format to ASCII and back).

Patch #5: (WMI sysfs workaround) - No change

Temporary hack, needed to get patch #4 working, due to a limitation on bus_id 
length (Kay Sievers is apparently working on this, ref Greg KH[1]). This 
should _NOT_ be applied to any upstream kernel.
