Subject: [PATCH 4.4 6/7] platform/x86: acer-wmi: Add new force_caps module parameter
Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 14:25:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210310132319.389240094@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210310132319.155338551@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit 39aa009bb66f9d5fbd1e58ca4aa03d6e6f2c9915 ]
Add a new force_caps module parameter to allow overriding the drivers
builtin capability detection mechanism.
This can be used to for example:
-Disable rfkill functionality on devices where there is an AA OEM DMI
record advertising non functional rfkill switches
-Force loading of the driver on devices with a missing AA OEM DMI record
Note that force_caps is -1 when unset, this allows forcing the
capability field to 0, which results in acer-wmi only providing WMI
hotkey handling while disabling all other (led, rfkill, backlight)
functionality.
