Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] platform/x86: msi-wmi: Fix unknown wmi event messages on MSI Claw models
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 19:16:52 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260613021654.933618-1-derekjohn.clark@gmail.com> (raw)
MSI Claw devices produce WMI events through the MSI WMI hotkeys GUID for
some of their buttons. When pressed, these cause spam in the kernel. The
Claws use a GUID already supported by msi-wmi, but use an
ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER instead of an ACPI_TYPE_INTEGER.
Patch 1 reformats msi_wmi_notify() to reduce nesting by using early
returns and a switch case in preparation for handling this new data
type.
Patch 2 adds known MSI Claw event keycodes to the keymap and support for
ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER.
Signed-off-by: Derek J. Clark <derekjohn.clark@gmail.com>

v2:
- Add comments explaining buffer fields & length.
- Test that we have at lease u8[2] before assignment of key ID
