[PATCHv2 00/10] RFKill airplane-mode indicator

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

 



This series implements an airplane-mode indicator LED trigger, which can be
used by platform drivers. The default policy have have airplane-mode set when
all the radios known by RFKill are OFF, and unset otherwise. This policy can be
overwritten by one single userspace application at a time using the operations
_AIRPLANE_MODE_INDICATOR_ACQUIRE and _AIRPLANE_MODE_INDICATOR_CHANGE. When the
airplane-mode indicator state changes, userspace gets notifications through the
RFKill control misc device (/dev/rfkill).

The series also contains a few general fixes and improvements to the subsystem.

Additionally, I have a couple of patches to have this feature supported by the
userspace tool 'rfkill' [1]. Should I use a different subject prefix to help
separate those from kernel patches in linux-wireless?
