docked sysfs attribute always 0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On my Lenovo ThinkPad T430 (2342-CTO) with kernel 4.10.1 (and
presumably earlier) the "docked" sysfs file always contains 0 for all
dock devices (ata_bay and battery_bay), even when devices are present,
both at boot and after hotplug.  I could not find a documented API for
this file, but from the code and use in widely-available dock
scripts[1] I presume that this behavior is incorrect.  I found a
similar issue reported by Pali Rohár[2] a few years ago which doesn't
appear to have been resolved.

Assuming this behavior is a bug, should I open an issue in Bugzilla to
track it?  I'm not familiar with the mailing-list vs Bugzilla
etiquette, but didn't find an issue for the previous report.

If there's anything else I can do to help debug, let me know.

Thanks,
Kevin
