Standard value "1" is for disabling automatic BIOS fan control and value "2" for enabling. By default BIOS auto mode is enabled by laptop firmware. When BIOS auto mode is enabled, custom fan speed value (set via hwmon pwmX sysfs attribute) is overwritten by SMM in few seconds and therefore any custom settings are without effect. So this is reason why implementing option for disabling BIOS auto mode is needed. So finally this patch allows kernel to set and control fan speed on laptops, but it can be dangerous (like setting speed of other fans). The SMM commands to enable or disable automatic fan control are not documented and are not the same on all Dell laptops. Therefore a whitelist is used to send the correct codes only on laptopts for which they are known. This patch was originally developed by Pali Rohár; later Giovanni Mascellani implemented the whitelist. Signed-off-by: Giovanni Mascellani <gio@xxxxxxxxxx> Co-Developer-by: Pali Rohár <pali.rohar@xxxxxxxxx>Hello! Patch looks good, see small suggestions below. The only important change for this patch is to hide those new pwmX_enable entries on unsupported machines.--- drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c | 111 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 101 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c b/drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c index 4212d022d253..67b8c0adede8 100644 --- a/drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c +++ b/drivers/hwmon/dell-smm-hwmon.c @@ -68,6 +68,8 @@ static uint i8k_pwm_mult; static uint i8k_fan_max = I8K_FAN_HIGH; static bool disallow_fan_type_call; static bool disallow_fan_support; +static unsigned int smm_manual_fan; +static unsigned int smm_auto_fan;

Drop the "manual" from the variable names. maybe use "fan_control" instead of "manual_fan".
