As multiple platform profile handlers might not all support the same
profile, cycling to the next profile could have a different result
depending on what handler are registered.

Check what is active and supported by all handlers to decide what
to do.

I'm confused by the comment. I was under impression the custom "profile"
is just a framework construct when the _framework_ couldn't find a
consistent profile? How can a driver decide to "support it"? It sounds
like a driver overstepping its intended domain of operation.

If the intention really is for the driver to "support" or "not support"
custom profile, then you should adjust the commit message of the patch
which introduced it.


Yes I had envisioned that a driver could potentially set custom as well.

This idea was introduced by my RFC series that precluded doing the
multiple driver handlers.

The basic idea is that some drivers (for example asus-wmi and asus-armoury) have the ability for the user to change a sysfs file that represents sPPT or fPPT directly.

If this has been done they're "off the beating path" of a predfined
profile because they're picking and choosing individual knobs.

So if a user touches those a driver could set profile as "custom" and if a user chooses the platform profile the driver will override all of those and report a pre-defined profile.

So, yes I had that all in my mind but as you point out I definitely forgot to mention it in the commit messages.

Do you agree with it? If so, I'll amend the next version where applicable (probably the patch that introduces custom and the documentation patch).
