Subject: [PATCH 3/4] HID: asus: Add WMI communication infrastructure
Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2026 13:19:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260107111945.48018-8-sunlightlinux@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260107111945.48018-2-sunlightlinux@gmail.com>
From: Ionut Nechita <ionut_n2001@yahoo.com>
Add the infrastructure needed for the HID driver to communicate with
the asus-wmi driver:
- Add linux/acpi.h include (in alphabetical order)
- Define ASUS_WMI_METHODID_NOTIF method ID in asus-wmi.h
- Implement asus_wmi_send_event() function to send events to asus-wmi
This infrastructure will be used to handle special keys that require
WMI communication.
