Thank's for you found out this issue, I didn't meet it because touchpad
hotkey didn't emit any wmi event on my Acer TravelMate 8572. 

I will double check it.

Yes, I thought your patch can avoid acer-wmi update killswitch state
base on the result from non-Communication button.

On some Acer machines only have one wireless key, the key only emit
KEY_WIRELESS but EC updates 3 communication devices' states, I thought
we can direct update 3 killswitch state when received KEY_WLAN or
KEY_BLUETOOTH. maybe like this:

+			switch (key->keycode) {
+			case KEY_WLAN:
+			case KEY_BLUETOOTH:
+				if (has_cap(ACER_CAP_WIRELESS))
+					rfkill_set_sw_state(wireless_rfkill,
+						!(device_state & ACER_WMID3_GDS_WIRELESS));
+				if (has_cap(ACER_CAP_THREEG))
+					rfkill_set_sw_state(threeg_rfkill,
+						!(device_state & ACER_WMID3_GDS_THREEG));
+				if (has_cap(ACER_CAP_BLUETOOTH))
+					rfkill_set_sw_state(bluetooth_rfkill,
+						!(device_state & ACER_WMID3_GDS_BLUETOOTH));
+				break;
+			}
+			sparse_keymap_report_entry(acer_wmi_input_dev, key,
+						   1, true);

Of course need more testing on my and your Acer machines.
I will double check this patch on my TravelMate 8572 then reply result
on this mail tomorrow.


Thank's a lot!

That is the other way I was thinking of doing this, but I wasn't sure
which was correct, and the machine in question doesn't have bluetooth
for me to test. Based on your explanation I think doing it as above is
best.

I'll get some testing with the version above, and if it tests well for
both of us I will send an updated patch plus one other patch to support
the wlan hotkey on the 1830. I don't personally have this machine so it
may be a few days before I receive results back from my tester.

Thanks,
Seth

I got test results back already, and the patch is working. I'll follow
up with both patches, that way if they work fine in your testing you can
go ahead and take them.

[PATCH 2/2] acer-wmi: Only update rfkill status for associated hotkey events

[Seth Forshee]

acer-wmi is indiscriminately using the device state from hotkey
events to update the various rfkill states. On the Aspire 1830 this
can result in a soft block on the wlan when the touchpad hotkey is
pressed, as it is reporting a non-zero device state that does not
reflect the wireless status. To fix this, only update rfkill states
when a wlan or bluetooth hotkey is pressed.

We need include this patch to 3.0-rc5 for avoid regression issue when
acer-wmi received non-zero result from non-communication key.

I just reviewed document, non-communication key event need return zero
result for communication devices state, but buggy BIOS didn't 100%
follow it.


Thank's a lot!

Just checked, it also emit touchpad wmi event, I missed it.

Will test your patch, I will check KEY_WLAN and KEY_BLUETOOTH in the
same case to update killswitch states.

acer-wmi problem handling device states from WMI events

[Seth Forshee]

Hi Joey,

acer-wmi is indiscriminately using the device state from hotkey events
to update the various rfkill states. On the Aspire 1830 this can result
in a soft block on the wlan when the touchpad hotkey is pressed, as it
is reporting a non-zero device state that does not reflect the wireless
status.

I beleive the following (untested) patch is a roughly correct fix for
this issue.  It changes acer-wmi to only update the rfkill states when
the appropriate hotkeys are pressed, but I'm a little unsure about the
way I've split out the rfkill updates acording to the hotkeys. I don't
see any support in the driver for a 3G hotkey, so I've grouped it with
the wlan key, and I have split out bluetooth to be handled separately
from these. Does this patch look correct?

Thanks,
Seth
