Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Documentation: syfs-class-firmware-attributes: Lenovo Opcode support
Date: Mon, 8 Nov 2021 18:25:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211108232533.211693-1-markpearson@lenovo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <markpearson@lenovo.com>

Newer Lenovo BIOS's have an opcode GUID support interface which provides
 - improved password setting control
 - ability to set System, hard drive and NVMe passwords

Add the support for these new passwords, and the ability to select
user/master mode and the drive index.
