Using netlink , we were getting proximity events like '0x60b0' and '0x60b1' but for our WWAN requirement, we need default and current
p-sensor state too .
Some tools like "acpi-listen" uses netlink to display events but we need default and current p-sensor state also as per our requirement.
hence , we have added new sysfs to get current p-sensor state using 'GPSS' method from BIOS .
This will be used for implementing "Dynamic power reduction" app which is used to control Body SAR value as per FCC requirement .
When Body or any object is near or away from p-sensor location on thinkpad system , then sysfs will be set .

Ack , we will check it .
