Subject: [PATCH 0/5] dell-laptop improvements
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2009 15:03:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A8C0623.8030808@tuffmail.co.uk> (raw)
Mario Limonciello's compal-laptop changes were partly based on a reading
of dell-laptop. Unfortunately dell-laptop set a few bad examples; let's
fix them.
I don't have the hardware to test this, but the first four patches
should be nice and low risk.
dell-laptop: fix a use-after-free error on the failure path
dell-laptop: fix rfkill memory leak on unload and failure paths
dell-laptop: create a platform device as a parent for the rfkill devices
etc.
dell-laptop: add __init to init functions
The last patch adds polling for the hardware switch which blocks all
radios. This exercises the hardware a little more than before; it would
benefit from testing. It should be possible to see events generated by
the hardware switch using "udevadm monitor --kernel --environment".
dell-laptop: poll the rfkill hard-block
